TESTIMONY

Time is the t est of truth. And
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test in Mexico. No Mexico resident
who suffers backache, or annoying
urinary ills can remain unconvinced
by this twice-told testimony.
C. E. Frazier, 1902 E. Liberty
street, Mexico, says: "Some years
ago l caught a hard cold which set
tied in my kidneys, causing me much
misery. / got so that l couldn't bend
and if | attempted to arise from a
chair, sharp pains stabbed me in my
kidneys. Besides, my kidneys were
more or less irregular in action all
the time. / heard Doan's Kidney Pills
highly recommended, so l got a box
and they brought relief. After / had
used two boxes, the trouble disap-
p%eared." ((Statement given Nov.
On June IA, 1916, Mr.. Frazier said:
~ think just as highly of Doan's
Kidney Pills today, as when l previ-
ously endorsed them. The cure they
made for me has remained perma-
nent."

n FOR

DON'TS FOR MOTORISTS
Don't race your engine when it is
not drawing the car. There is no
worse abuse.
Don't neglect to keep the radiator
filled with clean water. Always use
a good anti-freeze alcohol and water
mixture for cold weather. This
should be at least 25 per cent alco-
HOLLYWOOD or denatured.
Don't fail to inspect the level of the
liquid in your storage batteries ev-
cry ten days.
Don't let your car stand with the
headlights full on. 1t is u-nnnecessa
ry and runs the battery down .
Don't neglect your fabrication.
Don't try to save by buying a cheap
engine oil. The best is none too
good.
Don't drive fast around turns or
over rough roads.
Don't attempt to shift into e
gear when you are going ahead, even
if your clutch is out. Wait until you
have come to a stop.
Don't allow your clutch to engage
suddenly.
Don't drive with your spark fully
retarded. Your engine will lack
power if you do, and probably overhead
in the bargain.
Don't apply your brakes suddenly,
except in case of emergency.
Don't drive fast or slippery streets.
Road marking in the future will be
done by the State Road Commission,
created by the passage and signing
of the Halves Good Roads Bill. This
expense has been borne in the past
by the various progressive communi-
ties over the State. A uniform sys-
tenn of marking, it is understood, will
be used and all of the main highways
marked.
John Paul and family will motor to
the Pacific coast this summer. This
is one of the longest tours ever made
by a local party.

cate the cause of mysterious fires
which have keul them on the guard
for more than a month, in which time
they have been called upon to subdue
over a dozen fires, some OF them on

The fires break out in unoccupied
buildings. where no fire had been used
for several days, or on spots on the
prairie remote from where n per
son is working. The state fire marshal
has been over the ground. and a close
watch is being kept by the people OF

THE people of the state have very
generally ecepted the prohibition law,
which went into effect July l, as a
real, sure enough law, and it is being
respected and obeyed, except in a few
localities. And it is my official bust
ness to seek out it's viOlators and if
possible get evidence which will III
them also to respect it. There are
some druggists in the state who do not
seem to exactly grasp the idea that
the law applies to them, and it may
be necessary to swell the population in
the state ~penitentiary with some of the
proprietors and clerks of those vin-
lating drug stores, before they will
understand fglly that the law applies
to everybody"
