NOT DUE TO SEX ALONE
Wa-Keeney Women Have Learned the
Cause of Many Mysterious Pains
and Aches.

: Many women have come to know
that sex isn't the reason for all back
aches, dizzy headaches and urinary
disorders. Men have these troubles,
too, and often they come from kidney
weakness. To live simply, eat spar
ingly, take better care of ones self
and to use Doan's Kidney Pills, is
bound to help bad kidneys get better.
There is no other remedy so well-rec-
commended by Wa-Keeney people.
Read this case:
Mrs. F. M. Braun, Wa-Keeney, says
81 had a dull ache through the small
of my back and it made my house
work burden. Doan's Kidney Pills
quickly and satisfactorily removed the
trouble. It is over two years now
since I have felt in need of a kidney
medicine. I am in a position to say
good word for Doan's Kidney Pills.
Price 60 cents at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get

covery.
We wonder how many people of
Collyer and vicinity are preparing
something for the Trego County
Fair this fall. If you have some good
crops, stock, vegetables, etc., don't
forget to take down an exhibit.
The sudden death of Mr.. sPurinton,
of Banner, in one of the stores in
town Tuesday came as a complete
shock to his many friends and neigh
bors, as his health had been as good
as usual. It is thought his death was
caused by heart failure. More par
ticulars next week.
Pure bred stock is something from
which you have an income, whether
there is good crop or not. E. Cass
has sold thirty weaving Poland China
pigs in the last two months at prices
ranging from $40 to $25. These have
been shipped to different parts Of
Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas.
