How to Check that Cold.

When it is painful to breathe and
fever sends chills up and down your
back, you are in for cold. A timely
dose of DR.. Bells Pine Tar Honey will
stop the sneezes and sniffles. The pine
balsam loosens the phlegm and clears
the bronchial tubes, the honey soothes
and relieves the sore throat. The an
tiseptic qualities kill the germ and the
congested condition is relieved. Group,
whooping cough and chronic bronchial
affections quickly relieved. At all
druggists, 25c.

UNSHAKEN TESTIMONY.

Time is the test of truth. And
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test
in Perrysburg. No Perrysburg resi-
dent who suffers backache, or annoying
urinary ills can remain uneonvinced by
this twice-told testimony.
Christopher Knerr, shoemaker,
Main St., Perrysburg, says: 81 suf-
fered from severe attacks of back
ache and l could hardly work as it
hurt me to stoop or pick up anything.
My kidneys were weak and l had to
arise several times at night, which
greatly disturbed my rest. The kid
ney secretions were painful in pass
age, too. / tried great many medi-
cines, but with little benefit until I
used Doan's Kidney Pills. They did
me lot of good"
STEADFAST CONFIDENCE.
AFTER A LAPSE OF MORE
THAN FIVE YEARS, Mr.. Knerr
said: 81 always keep box of Doan's
Kidney Pills on hand and take them
whenever any signs of the old trouble
appear. They never fail to relieve
