CONFEDERATION
OF Interest to Minot Reader

vi AntereSJ 10 MlnOC Ne80efS.
For months Minot citizens have
seen in these columns enthusiastic
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills by Mi
not residents. Would these prominent
people recommend remedy that had
not proven reliable? Would they
confirm their statements after years
had elapsed if personal experience
had not shown the remedy to be wor-
thy Of endorsement ? The following
statement should carry conviction to
the mind of every Minot reader.
j. M. Horst, retired farmer, 815
Washington ST., Minot, says: "For
a long time my kidneys acted irregu-
larly. | had severe, cutting pains
across my kidneys and a dull pain
through my hips, loins and limbs.
Doan's Kidney Pills in short time
completely cured the attack"
OVER TWO YEARS LATER Mr..
Horst said: Sometimes, my kidneys
are weak and the kidney secretions
are retarded. Doan's Kidney Pills al
ways help me whenever l suffer in
that way"

able for next fall and winter use. It
is your patriotic duty to purchase
your sugar for home canning purposes
now.

with sugar certificates. Consumers
can now get sugar for canning pur-
poses by. signing these certificates.

AS we are facing a sugar shortage
during the coming canning season.
consumers who expect to need a con,
siderable quantity of sugar during
canning are now asked to buy a por-
ton OF their requirements now and
set it aside so as to have it on hand

and buy only as they require it. It is
going to be an impossibility to supply
everyone.
First, the sugar refners would
be unable to handle the volume of
business. Second, the Transportation
companies could not handle the sugar
quickly enough to make proper dis
tribution and get the sugar where

IS IMPORTANT ADVICE

Don't be any kind of a Stacker. and
especially don't be a coal Stacker.
Every one Of US a do something to
help win the war and the Courier asks
you to order your coal now. Put it in
the bins this summer and thus leaves
the railroads so they can devote all
their energy and hauling capacity to
the war necessities; hauling soldiers.
sailors, army and naval stores, NUM-
tiOns, etc.
Hit the enemy hard now by order
ing your winters supply of fuel.
Coal must be provided for the fac
tories, for the locomotives, for the
ships, for the men at the front. You
can help by buying your coal now.
Will you do it? Coal can not be
stored at the mines. It can be stored
in your bins. Fill your bins and do
your part.
Transportation facilities for moving
coal are now available later in the sea-
son all III and engines will be need
ed to move crops and the output of the
manufacturing plants producing war
materials.
The state fuel administration urges
that, "all orders should be placed with
local dealers before July 1st. One
half of the domestic coal to be used
in Montana between now and April
/, 1919, must be in the bins of indi-
vidual consumers before September /,
it is the patriotic duty Of the indi-
vidual consumer to put in his coal at
once"
United States Fuel Administrator
Garfield says: "If you haven't the
money to pay for your years coal
supply, do without clothes, without
luxuries, borrow the money if need be,
but get in your coal at once"
Let's get into the real spirit of the
fuel administrations slogan by acting
now.
W. H. Merriman, division freight
and passenger agent of the Northern

people of Montana to lay in a supply
of coal now, and says that if the bins
