STRENGTHENS
KIDNEYS
PURIFIES o

You can't expect weak kidneys to
keep up under the terrific strain of
natures effort to filter the acids and
poisons out of the system unless they
are given a little help. Don't allow
your kidneys, the most overworked
organs of your body to become dis
eased when a little attention now
will prevent it. Don't try to cheat
nature. 1t can't be done.
AS DOR as you commence to have
~backache, feel nervous, tired or worn
out without cause, get busy. These
are usually warnings that your kid
neys are not working properly and
throwing off the poisons as they
should.
Do not delay a minute. Go after
the cause of your ailments or you
may find yourself in the grip of an
incurable disease. Gold Medal Haar-
lem Oil Capsules will give almost i'm
mediate relief from kidney troubles,
which may be the unsupported cause
of i'll health. Gold Medal HARLEM
Oil Capsules will do the work. They
are the pure original Harlem Oil
Capsules imported direct from the
laboratories in HARLEM. Holland.
Ask your druggist for Gold Medal
and accept no substitutes. Look for
the name Gold Medal on every box.

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 can
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 W0..na, retired farmer,
Grant avenue, says: "Doan's Kid
ney Pills are the best remedy / have
ever used. My kidneys were out of
order and / suffered a lot from back
ache, especially after l bent over or
lifted anything. / had such sharp
pains in my back, / 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"
Price, so cents. at all dealers.

WOUNDED YANK PLAYS DEAD
Laugh and Joke and Prank Are Not
Absent From American Mill
tary Hospitals.

The laugh and the joke and the
prank are not absent from the Ameri-

didly equipped institutions, but even
the shrapnel loaded American citizen
soldier has his fun.
One surgeon tells this story
When the lines of stretcher cases
were being brought into his hospital,
the surgeons stood In the reception
ward making quick examinations. One
stretcher was brought silently in, the
form Of a soldier lying rigid under
blankets drawn over the head. This
Is the sad sign of one who needs no
more help. They motioned the bearers
to set 1t aside In a corner and when
the last wounded man had been looked
over, the surgeons reverently lifted the
blanket from the face.
The "dead" man sat suddenly up
with a loud 'boo!" Then the "case"
laughed, lay down and again drew the
blanket over his face. They let him
play his joke on others for a while,
then sent him to a ward to have some
machine gun bullets picked out.

such cases the faithful dog has proven
himself the best means of reaching

The dog crawls from one shell hole to
another until he finds the men for

Whole Section Wants to Adopt French
Babe Born In an Ambu-
lance.

Paris.-There's one baby In France
who has more American godfathers
than all the other French infants who
have been adopted since the adopt-a-
baby agitation was started by the
Yanks.
In fact, this particular infant has
something like forty American god
fathers-a whole section Of the United
States army ambulance, serving with
the French army, claiming the honor.
But Preston S~parkman OF Rocky
Point, N. G. (he's the real hero of this
story, heads the list.
A short time ago Sparkman while
at his post was awakened at night
by an excited gendarme crying:
Ambulance tout de suite"
Sparkman hurriedly drove his car
to a little house a short distance from
the ambulance sections camp, where
instead of a wounded soldier a young
woman was placed In his ambulance.
Then he began to pick his way care
fully along a shell-pocked road to a
hospital.
About half way to the hospital the
gendarme began yelling to Sparkman.
but the latter, not wishing to display
lack of French to a mere military DO
liceman, just said: "Ah, oui ali oui."
But the gendarme continued talk
Ing and yelling. Sparkman stopped
his car and found that the stork had
arrived. 1t a a blue-eyed baby boy.
Now the whole section wants to
adopt the child.
