UNSHAKEN TESTIMONY

Time is the test of truth. And Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test in Norwich. No Norwich resident who suffers backache, or annoying urinary ills can remain unconvinced by this twice told testimony.
 Mrs. Margaret Brown, $40 W. Main St., says: My back and kidneys were in a bad way. I suffered Q great deal from a dull. heavy ache in my back. It gradually grew worse until it was almost impossible for me to get out Of bed mornings. I was in that condi- tion for nearly a year trying different medicines without help. Finally ] heard of Doan's Kidney Pills and got some at Sevin & Sons Drug Store, and found they were just what I>needed. They made me feel like a different woman, better than had felt for years. My kidneys are now acting regularly and the pains have left. !" Statement given July 22, 191).
 On May IS. 1916, Mrs. Brown said: "Doan's Kidney Pills certainly are ex- cellent and they do what is claimed for them. At times. when cold settles on my kidneys and causes my back to ache I use Doan's and they never fail to give me prompt relief.

 HAVE BUT FEW PEACHES

Frank w Browning, proprietor of the Kitemaug orchards, is just begin ming to pick the Champion peaches, of which, however, the crop is very limited. The Champion is esteemed as the best eating peach that comes to market and the fruit is of fine quality this year although the quant- ity will be so small. MT. Browning said on Monday that he considered he was very lucky to have any peaches at all, as Hale of Glastonbury and Lyman, the two big peach growers of the state will have no peaches at all instead of the thousands of bas- kets that their orchards annually pro- duce. The hard winter and frosts have made a total failure of the Con necticut peach crop. The Kitemaug orchards will have a few Albertas which are a later peach than Cham pion. but these too have suffered like all the rest from the killing cold of last winter

Allies Sinking Submarines as Fast
as They Are Built
London, March 6,-Flrst Lord OF
the Admiralty Geddes, addressing the
house Of commons, said:
Great Britain and America are
sinking enemy submarines as fast as
they are built. Germany is greatly
exaggeratlng her successes-in one
month as much as 70 por cent. There
is no reason 10 alter my opinion that
the menace is held, but not mastered.
The chances OF submarine return
ing from the North Atlantic, the chan.
mel or the North sea are one In four
or five. Naval warfare is increasing
ly in our favor. We have placed q
transchannel surface barrage to OBJ
struct submarines, More than 100 pa
troll boats are employed In this. In
the Mediterranean, conditions are
more difficult and the anti-submarine
campaign is correspondingly less sat
isfactory. Despite glowing newspa-
per accounts from America, II will he
considerable time before the neces'
sary output of tonnage Is secured"
