A GOOD FRIEND.

A good friend stands by you when
in need. Union City people tell how
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test. Mrs. w. Woods, of East Cheat
ham street, Union City, endorsed
Doan's three years ago and again con-
firms the story. Could you ask for
more convincing testimony?
81 had been suffering for nearly
three months from a disordered con-
dftion of my kidneys which caused
my back to ache severely" says Mrs.
Woods. 81 couldn't attend to my
house work on several occasions and
often l was so nervous 1 didn't know
what to do. Headaches and dizziness
also added to my misery. AS soon as
l began using Doan's Kidney Pills
got relief and continued use cured
me-"
The above statement was given
December 2, 1914, and on May 8,
1918, Mrs. Woods said: 81 recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills whenever an OPP
portunity occurs. Kidney trouble
hasn't annoyed me since giving my
former statement"
Price so cents at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Woods had. Foster-Milburn, Co.,

roDAYs ANNIVERSARY.

The ''Tield of F1oddcn." in North urnberland. England was fought on Sept 9. 1513. It was the final folly of an iII-advised monarch, James " or Scotland. who, followed by the most gallant chevalicrs that ever breathcd. plunged into the bowels of England's might. and was engulfed on F1odden Field: with him, 10000 of ScotIand's most romantic and chival- rous gentlemen perishcd. The eternal question again rose over dismayec Scotland. Why must so many perish for the miserable infatuation of one man! Strip it to the marrow, and we find that tho disaster of Flodden Field was caused by the delay of James " and his procrastination in taking advantage of the favorable points of ground for the attack. Over Flodden Field broods for aye an ele- meut of romantic devotion, of Scot tish cavalry at it's highest I!lodden Field has given birth to deathless poetry. The story of F1oddcn Field Is told in Marmion, by Sir Walter Scott.
