DO YOU HAVE DIZZY SPELLS?
It's Important to Learn the Cases, A.
Many Audubon People Have.

Dizziness is never a disease of it
self-its only symptom of some
deeper seated trouble. Much dizziness
is caused by disordered kidneys fail
ing TO filter all the poisons from the
blood These poisons attack the
nerves and dizziness results. If you
are subject TO dizziness, there is good
reason TO suspect your kidneys. and
il you suffer backache, headache, and
irregularity of the kidney secretions
you have further proof. Many Au-
dubon people have learned the value
of Doan's Kidney Pills in just such
cases. Read this Audubon residents

KINGSBURY CASES DISMISSED

1t will perhaps be of considerable
interest to a number of our readers
to know that at the recent term of
our District Court, the indictments
against NJ. o. Kingsbury, Chiroprac-
tor. were dismissed. The charges
made against him in the indictments
were, that he had been practicing
medicine without a license. Our read
ers will recall that he has been twice
tried on such charges, and the jury
each time refused to convict him.
and were discharged by the Court
The trial of these cases has cost
the county considerable sum of
money, and the witness fees were
certified to the Board of Supervisors.
by the clerk, March 6 1917.
On being appraised of the facts
in these cases. Mr.. Rasmussen. the
new County Attorney. felt that it
would be impossible to secure a con-
viction, and that further effort was
waste of the peoples money. In
this we believe Mr. Rasmussen used
good judgement and that his action
will be generally commended by the
tax payers of the county.
