One of the penalties Of a republic
is Its yellow press. which, purely for
business reasons. is against" every
body and everything at some time or
another. For being against" some
body or something makes sensation
alism, which IN turn creates profits.

hiding under camouflage and seeking

VALUABLE ADVICE
Maysvjlle Citizens Should Profit BY
The Following Statement.

this Maysville resident.
Their merit was shown-the story
told.
Now comes further evidence
The testimony is confirmed.
The remedy was tested-the results
lasted.
Could Maysville residents demand
stronger proof?
It's Maysville testimony. 1t can be
investigated.

Second and Wall Sts., gave the fol-
lowing statement in January 1912:
The action Of my kidneys was ire
gular and the kidney secretions con-
tanned sediment. l had backaches and

in Doan's Kidney Pills today, as when
l gave my former endorsement. l

cure they gave me will be perma-

endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If

this year than at the same time last
year, the difference is not more than
the average annual variation at this
time of the year. The stocks OF Bur-
ley on hand are shown to be 1886
635 pounds short of last years dealers
stocks.
A reveiew of the figures which do
not show any very marked divergence
from normal conditions, when taken
together with the stability of the pres
ent export and domestic demands
seems to indicate a strong market
for the tobacco crop Of the present
year, especially in the case of Burley,
and there is nothing in the report
which should cause uneasiness in the
market. 1t is quite probable that any
increase in supplies of dark tobacco
will be more than offset by the de-
mand on markets soon to be opened
in Central Europe, West Coast of Afri-
ca and other countries formerly de-
pending upon this type of tobacco for
import from the United states. 1t
