SOME GOOD ADVICE

Strengthened by Ocala Experience
Kidney disease is too dangerous to
neglect. At the first sign of backache
headache, dizziness or urinary disor-
ders, you should give the weakened
kidneys prompt attention. Eat little
meat, take things easier and use re-
liable kidney tonic. There's no other
kidney medicine so well recommended
as Doan's Kidney Pills. Ocala people
rely on them. Here's one of the many
statements from Ocala people.
C. C. French, carpenter, 103 w.
Sanchez street, says: "Doan's Kid
ney Pills did me more good than
anything else l ever used. | had been
having attacks of backache and trou-
bic with my kidneys for some time

He Couldn't Stand Prosperity.

Thomas A. Edison once said of a
man In his employ:
His executive ability was greater
than that of any other man i have yet
seen. His memory was prodigious,
conversation laconic and movements
rapid. He disappeared one day, and
although sent men everywhere it was
likely he could be found, he was not
discovered. After two weeks he came
into the factory in terrible condition
as to clothing and face. He sat down
and, turning to me. said: Edison, it's
no use: this is the third time | can't
stand prosperity. Put my salary back
and give me job / was very sorry
to learn 1t was whisky that had spoiled
such promising career / gave him
an inferior job and kept him for long
time. "-Collier's Weekly.
