A GOOD FRIEND

A good friend stands by you when in need. Stafford Springs people tell how Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test. MT. Irons endorsed Doan's over four years ago and again confirms the story. Could you ask for more convincing testimony?
 George Irons, farmer, E. Main St., Stafford Springs, says: About a year agu my back became very sore and lame and knew from other dis orders that my kidneys were at fault, as their action was irregular The first box of Doan's Kidney Pills, pro- cured from the Eaton Drug Store, inn proved my condition very much and after finishing three boxes, was free from the trouble. ''
 The above statement was given July 31, 1911, and on May 6, 1916, MT. Irons said: 1T am glad to confirm all l said in my previous statement recon. mending Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me and it hasn't been necessary to use anything for my back and kidneys in quite some time. .''
 Price 500, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get DOan's Kidney Pills-the same that MT. Irons has twice publicly recon. mended. Foster Milburn Oo., Props. Buffalo N, Y.

 And then suddenly the telephone upon the table beside my bed gave d loud ringing in thr darkness that was long after midnight. Very quickly from fear I covered my head with my pillow and waited with great fiuttering of heart.

Popular Tailor
 Tells His Story
Joseph Landman, of Meriden, Says That Tanlac Has
 Restored His Health.

Joseph Landman, popular tailor, of 21 Pratt street. Merldf n, states that his pres ent good health is due 10 use of Tanlac, the National tonic. This is what he says |:
 "I suffered from stomach trouble for a number of years, and eventually my di- gestion went back on me. Everything ate seemed to rest in my stomach like a lump of lead. became very nervous and was unable to sleep In the morn ings would have no appetite for hrea k fast, would not feel like work and would feel generally weak and played out
 II read a Tanlac testimonial in the newspaper became interested in the med iclne, and began to use 1t. It has certain ly done the work for me. II has made my digestive organs work properly, and now can eat anything want without being distressed AS soon as my digest ion got all right, good health naturally followed. My nerves became steady, and 1 was soon able to sleep well at night. Tanlac has put me back on my feet, and I am glad to tell others about it."
 That TanIac is able to restore digestion after years of i'll health is a sure indlca- ton that 1t possesses superior merit. Tanlac tones up the stomach and builds up the general health.
 Tanlac is now beng introduced at Me- Cormack's Drug Store.

Tiremen Always Dread That Type of
 Warehouse Conflagration.
 A type of fire that the firemen dread a great deal is blaze in a cotton ware house These fires generate an i'm mense amount of dense, suffOcating smoke and because of this fact have to be fought almost exclusively from the outside of the building. The smoke Is of too dangerous a character t0 allow the men to remain any length of time inside. Therefore the fire fighting has to be done entirely from the outside, by pouring great streams of water through the windows and doorways until 1t is finally drowned out.
 There Is an added danger at fires nf this type that Is not generally known. The cotton bales are packed so closely in these buildings with practically nu space between them, and such an ennr nous amount of water must he used to extinguish the fire, that the cotton absOrbs the water and begins to swell.

 Every year every local paper gives from $500 to $5,OOO free lines for the sole benefit of the community in which it is located. No other agency Can or will do this. The local editor in proportion to his means does more for his town than any other ten men, and in all fairness, man with man, he ought to be supported, not because ynn may happen to like him or ad. miie his writing, but because local paper is the best investment a com. mnnity can make. It may not be brilliant or crowded with great thnu2h,s, but financially it is more of benefit to a community than the preacher or teacher.

"a LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS THERE. "
1t is indeed we are glad to publish
the above item, from the fact that 1t
was written as above in its entirety,
and conveys compliment upon its
writer, considering her age. The
writer, we understand, is only ten
years old and in the fourth grade,
being pupil of Miss Flora Winters.
The original copy is at this Office
and we are proud of the specimen, and
would do justice to many twice her
age and experience. Her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. E F. Hay, who live near
this city, and her teacher, have reason
to be proud of this little girl, as the
grammar and penmanship are far
above the average and reflects credit.
The little girl, we understand, did
not want her name mentioned as the
writer, and we would like to obey her
wish, but the article is far TOO good to
pass by without our praise, and we
want to give it where it is due. The
writer is little Miss Thena Hay. Little
Miss, keep up your work.
