THE BEST PROOF
Given by a wa-Keeney Citizen

Doan's Kidney Pills were used
they brought benefit
The story was told to Wa-Keeney
residents.
Time has strengthened the evil
dence-
Has proven the result lasting
The testimony is home testimony
The proof convincing.
It can be Investigated by Wa-Kee-
ney residents.
A. J. Johnson, Madison street, Wa
Keeney, says: 81 was bothered by a
pain in my back, just over my kidneys.
I had to get up several times at night
to pass the kidney secretions. The
trouble kept me in misery for about
year and the different medicines
I tried had no effect. I finally got
Doan's Kidney Pills at w. w. Gibson's
Drug Store and they cured me-"
OVER SEVEN YEARS LATER,
Mr. johnson said: t3Doan's Kidney
Pills are the best kidney medicine
I know of. The good health I now
enjoy is due to an occasional use of
this medicine"
Price 6Oc at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mr. johnson has twice publicly rec
commended. Foster-Milburn Co,

READ rms IMPORTANT LETTER
March 8, 1919.

-
March 8, 1919
Dear Editor:
The American Red Cross has un-
dertaken to collect 10000 tons of
clothing for the peoples of Europe,
except the Central Powers, who have
been made destitute by the war, and
has begun the collection campaign
about the time when American peo-
pie are changing from winter to light
er clothing Of this tonnage 1000
tons must be collected in the South
western Territory.
From the actual beginning of the
collection of clothing to its delivery
to ships of the European Relief Ad-
ministration, the American Red Cross
viii assume entire charge of the oper-
alton. Distribution of the clothing in
Europe will be entirely under Amer
lean supervision.
This collection is much heavier
task than was accomplished last fall
and calls for a greater effort. While
the American people are aware of
the conditions and needs of European
peoples, we know it is necessary to
continually call attention to the cam
paign we are making. The collection
drive will be during the week of
March 1881. May we ask your as
sistance in preparing the public for
this collection by publishing informa-
ton we will be pleased to send you.
We know how helpful such publica-
ton would be and we assure you your
assistance would be appreciated.
Yours very truly,
Charlotte E. Taussig
Acting Director of Publicity.

HENRY BOLLIG WRITES

Tientsin, China, January 10Th, 1919.
Dear Parents:
Just a line from your soldier boy
to let you know that I am perfectly
well at the present writing and hope
this will also find you in the best of
health. I am getting along splendidly
in this far away country and reilly
enjoy the army life. Yet I would sure
ly be glad to get out of this China
climate as it is far colder than Kan
sas people would think. 1t has been
showing here every minute fer the
last six days, and if my work was in
the open like that of most of the boys
it would certainly be pretty tough.
But I have been assigned to do som
painting and that makes it easier for
me. AS I can think of no particular
incident in my present surroundings
that could be of interest to you / will
close. With best wishes and regards
to you all I remain.
Your affectionate son,
Henry Bollig.
