HEED THE WARNING
Many Maysyille People Have Done SO.


When the kidneys are weak they
give unmistakable warnings that
should not be ignored. BY examining
the urine and treating the kidneys
upon the first sign of disorder, many
days of suffering may be saved. Weak
kidneys usually eXpel a dark, ILL
smelling urine, full Of "brickdust'
sediment and painful In passage.
Sluggish kidneys often cause a dull
pain in the small of the back, head
aches, dizzy spells, tired, languid feel
ings and frequent rheumatic twinges.
Doans Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only. There is no better recon-
mended remedy.
Maysville people endorse Doan's
Kidney Pills.
Fred Dresel, tailor and Justice Of the
peace, 1888 East Second Street,
says: IL was troubled by inflammation
of the bladder and annoyance from
my kidneys. The kidney secretiOnf
burned in passage and often were re-
tarded. had severe pains across the
small of my back which greatly inter
fered with my work. Doan's Kidney
Pills, which l got at Wood & Sons
Drug Store, gave me prompt relief"
Mr.. Dresel gave the above statement
on February 6, 1908, and on November
IA, 1916, he added: II have had tn,
same faith in Doan's Kidney Pills to
day as ever, for l haven't had any trou

Dolly had never seen cioss r"i'
She didn't know that FAIRIES could be
anything but pleasant until she came
into the garden this morning. There
.tood a little man no taller than your
littlest finger. My! but he looked
cross.
Dollv waited a minute for him to
speak, and then, as he did not say
anything, she said
Good morning.

huffily.

THE matter Do you see THAT?
He nointed with finger as long as
the point of lead pencil. THAI
was another little man who was sit
ting on a plant nearby carelessly
swinging his legs. He looked very
saucy and "dont-care-ish."
"Yes," said Dolly. "Who-what Is
he?
THAT is an Imp"
"a Imp. What is an Imp"
IAN Imp is a PEST, said the cross
little man, in cross little voice.

"You are. And you are worse. You
are a tramp, and thief"

"I will. l will call you worse name
than that. You are murderr-if not
Yourself, some of your family are muir

"Oh, how awful" said Dolly.
"I'ye got as much right in this gar
den as you have" said the Imp, very
angry now"
you have not. My family and my
friends were brought to this garden
and planted here. That old tramp
YOUR Grandfather Wind, brought you
here and scattered you about among
us. And now that you are here you
steal the good food that was put into
the ground for US. You crowd US out
of our places. You even choke some
of us to DEATH"

truth"
Dolly looked. She saw nice row o.
beans. They looked strong and well
All at once she saw some other plants
growing up very fast all around th'
beans. These plants seemed stronger
than the beans. They sent out shoots
and leaves and stuck their roots int
the ground as fast as they could. Sh'
could see that there were many Imp
ON these plants. The Imps worked
hard. They pushed the beans out
I their places. They dug down into tn
