WORDS FROM HOME
Statements that May Be Investigated
Statements of Madison
Citizens.

When a Madison citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you a
rely on his sincerity. The state
ments of people residing in far away
places do not command your conf
dence. Home endorsement is the
kind that backs Doan's Kidney Pills.
Such testimony is convincing. Inves-
tigation proves it true. Below is a
statement of a Madison resident.
No stronger proof of merit can be
had.
August W01na, retired farmer,
Grant avenue, says: "Doan's Kid
ney Pills are the best remedy | have
ever used. My kidneys were out of
order and l suffered a lot from back
ache, especially after / bent over or
lifted anything. / had such sharp
pains in my back, l could hardly
straighten up. My kidneys annoyed
me at night, acting too frequently.
Doan's Kidney Pills, which | got at
Smiths drug store, regulated my
kidneys and strengthened my back.
They helped me in every way"

WET AND DRY COUNT is SLOW
May Be Days Before Final Result ls
Determined.

Minneapolis, Nov. Z. - 1t may be
days before final returns from ballot
ing on the prohibition amendment are
known, election officials agreed. Indi-
cations were, however, that the dry
amendment had carried. Counting
the pink ballots will be delayed be-
cause hundreds of voters failed to vote
on the amendment and the situation
is complicated by the necessity of
careful canvasses to determine which
ballots were accompanied by the pink
slip and which were not. At noon the
counted vote In los districts in Min
neapolis stood Is, 1870 for adoption of
the amendment and $500 against out
of a total vote of 35,147.
Returns from many parts of the
state will be held up, it is expected,
even longer than those in the city.
