WORK THAT TELLS
Plenty Of II Has Been Done Right
Here In Maysville.

To thoroughly know the virtues OF
a medicine you must investigate It's
work. Doan's Kidney Pills stand this
test, and plenty Of proof exists right
here In Maysville. People wh0testified
years ago to relief from backache, kid
ney and urinary disorders, now give
confirmed testim0ny-declar the re-
suits have lasted. How can any Mays
vile sufferer longer doubt the EVIL
dence!
Henry s. Gallenstein. blacksmith,
124 W. Third st., Maysville, says: "My
kidneys were out of order and | had
pains through my back. Doan's Kid
ney Pills put an entire stop to the
pains and my kidneys became we'll"
Statement given January 8, 1922
RESULTS THAT REMAIN
OVER FOUR YEARS LATER, or on
November IA, 1916, Mr.. Gallensten
said: 81 haven't had any need of a
kidney medicine since | last recon-
mended Doan's Kidney Pills. The bene-
fit they gave me has been permanent.
Mr.. Gallenstein is only one of many
Maysvillc people who have gratefully
endorsed Deans Kidney Pills. If your
back aches-if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for kidney rem
edy-ask distinctly for DOAN'S KID
NEY PILLS, the same that Mr.. Gallen-
stein has twice publicly recommended
the remedy backed by home testi-
mony. SOC all stores. Foster Milburn

TO PREVENT EYE STRAIN

An inventor in Columbus Ohio, has
recently placed on the market a de-
vice for eliminating eye strain caused
by motion pictures. This result is
sought by placing filter screen di-
rectly in front of the ordinary lenses
in the picture machine. Popular Mo-
chanics Magazine describes the filter,
which is made of especially treated
glass and has a slightly amber hue. 1t
Is held securely in metal frame and
can be attached to any projecting out
fit. All light from the electric arc
passes through 1t on its way to tho
screen. thereby altering out the ultra
violet rays which some believe to be
responsible for the strain on the eyes
that arises from viewing motion pic
lures.

 "It is quite evident that more un- desirable location could not have been selected for cemetery, for the reason that it lies directly in the path of the overflow from a glacier stream and will be under water part of each season. 1 recommend that but little money be spent on this site in way of improvement for the reason that the City will have to find new location to make a permanent cemetery. For the present, with the assistance of the Alaska Road Commission the water has been diverted, but in my opinion it will always make this loca- tion unsuitable"
