THE BEST TEST
Is the Test of Time

Years ago this Morris resident
told Of good results from using
Doan's Kidney Pills. Mrs. Julius
Olsen of E. Third St., confirms the
former statement-says there has
been no return of the trouble. Can
Morris people ask for more convinc-
ing testimony?
Mrs. Olsen, says: II am glad to
say that Doan's Kidney Pills are the
best medicine I have ever taken for
kidney trouble and lumbago. 1t
took only two boxes of Doan's Kid
ney Pills to relieve me of weakness
of my kidneys" Statement given
August 9, 1900
OVER THREE YEARS LATER
Mrs. Olsen said: II have been we'll
ever since and I know that the cure
is permanent"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Olsen has twice publicly
recommended. Foster-Milburn Co..

Cats In Ancien+ waIae-

An ancient statute ascribed to Howell
the Good, Welsh prince, who ruled In
948, regulated the price Of cats. A
penny was the price of kitten before
its eyes were open, twopence until it
had caught its first mouse and four
pence when 1t was old enough for COM
bat, He who stole cat from the royal
granar1es forfeited either a milk eve,
with its fleece and lamb, or as much
wheat as would cover the body Of the
cat suspended by it's tail, with its nose
touching the ground. A penny was q
coin Of great purchasing power In the
tenth century.

severed from the vine, terminate and
grow into the melon, which often be-
gins to decay within three days. The
methods recommended by the depart
ment for the handling of melons are
as follows:
Cut and burn all weeds around the
field and along ditch banks during the
winter
From the time that the melons set
on the vines all Gull fruit should be
hauled out of the field weekly and fed
to hogs or deeply buried. Wash the
wagons used for hauling culls with a
2 per cent bluestone solution.
Spraying with bordeaux mixture for
anthracnose will probably help control
stem end rot.
Laborers harvesting melons should
never cut or touch a decayed melon.
Cut melons with long stems and load
into cars with the least possible delay
and with the utmost care In handling
to avoid bruising. Open car ventilators.
Most important of all, apply a paste
made of common starch with 6 per
cent bluestOne to the freshly cut stems

Death of Mrs. Esther Byrne

Mrs. Esther Byrne, after having
attained the age of 88 years and re-
tanned her mental endowments clear
to the end, passed awey on Tuesday,
July II, following a sickness which
began only last Friday. Mrs. Byrne
had made her home in Morris only
a little over year, but had endeared
herself to many friends, as she had
during her long residence on farm
south of the city on the Swift county
line.
She was born in Wicklow coun-
ty, Ireland, her maiden name bein2
Esther Byrne. She was married to
Patrick Byrne in February, 1854.
They came to America to Dairy, Pen

TWO PIONEER WOMEN
CALLED BY DEATH
Mrs. Emma Vaughan One of the
First Family West of Pomme de
Terre River

Mrs. Emma P. Vaughan, born in
1858, died at Rochester, Mimi, on
July 16, 1917. Altho born in
Rochester she lived there for only
four years as child, and returned
there three weeks previous to her
death for visit with relatives and
to consult the specialists there re-
gardfng chronic ailment from
which she suffered. This ailment was
obscure, but after her death, it was
found by an autopsy that the cause
of her death was hardening of the
arteries and a diseased kidney.
Death came unexpectedly, for her
ailment was much more serious than
was supposed.
Mrs. Vaughan was universally be-
loved by all who knew her, and she
had enjoyed many friendships here
from early days. Her family set
tied at Sank Centre in 1862, and in
1858 moved to farm near Winter
mute's lake, and were the first white
settlers west of the Pomme de Terre
River. She was married to DR..
George w. Vaughan on November 6,
1880, and to them was born one son,
Ernest, of this city, who survives
her. Mr.. Vaughan died last year,
just nine months previous to Mrs
Maughan's death. She is survived
also by her mother, Mary c. Frisby,
and by two sisters and four broth
ers, Mrs. R. A. Fox, of Towner, N.
D., Mrs. J. T. Newlove of Minot, N.
D., and John and Percy Frisby in
Alaska, Fred Frisby in Washington,
and Ed. Frisby in California.
The funeral was held from the
late home on Wednesday afternoon,
the service being conducted by Rev.
Mr.. Potts, Episcopal rector from Ben
lsOn, of which church Mrs. Vaughan
twas an adherent. A large concourse
of sOrrowing friends attended the
last rites as a testimonial Of their
respect for the departed, whom they
had known as kind neighbor and
friend
Relatives from abroad who attend
ed the funeral were Mr.. and Mrs. R
A. Fox of Towner, N. D., and Mrs
]. T. NewlOve of Minot, N. D.

as the melons are being packed In the
car. 1t has been found that disinfect-
ing the stems at other times is less eff
fective, as the paste is rubbed off by
handling.
AS the packer arranges the melons
in tiers have him place the stem ends
outward, while a reliable boy cuts off
a section Of the stem and applies a
covering of paste with small, round
brush.
Freight cars that have contained de-
cayed melons or yard refuse should be
washed clean and sprayed with 2

ache or Bladder trouble
Neutalizes acids.

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like lunpg Of lead The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri-
tated, and you may be obliged to seek re-
lief two Or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must help
them flush off the body's urinous waste
or you'll be real sick person shortly,
At first you feel a dull misery in the kid
ney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomache gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts; take q tablespoonful
in a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with iithia, and has been used
for generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine, so
it no longer is source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble. .
