Is This Your Experience?
Many Barton People Are Afflicted
With Annoying Kidney Ills.

Are you bothered with too frequent
action of the kidneys? Are the Sc.
cretions highly colored---do they con-
tain sediment-burn and scald in
voiding? These arc all signs of kid
ney sickness and should not be neg
lected. Barton people recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills. If your back
aches and your kidneys are weak
you will find no better recommended
remedy. Ask your neighbor.
A. F. Sargent, Glover street, Bar
ton says: 81 think Doau's Kidney
Pills are very good for they helped
me when / used them a short time
ago. When / stopped over or did the
! least bit of work my bacn was very
sore. My kidneys acted irregularly
and the secretions were painful in
passage. / heard of what Doan's
Kidney Pills had done so I got a
couple boxes at Pierce's Drug Store
The relief they brought in a short
time was wonderful. I am glad to
recommend a medicine like Doan's
Kidney Pills."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
! simply ask for a kidney remedy-gei

Two Fires. Little Damage

A fire at the plant of the Newport
bakery Wednesday of last week
brought out the fire department but
hand chemical extinguished the fire.
It is thought the fire started in box
of refuse by spark from rubbish
fire.
A second fire was in the house occu-
pied by LOOMS Miller and owned by
f. P. Davis, and located at the cor
ner of Eastern avenue and Coventry
streets. The fire appears to have
started from an oil stove but the fam
lily was away from the house. a
chemical extinguisher soon conquered
the blaze.

CAR SHORTAGE FACTS.

HE facts regarding the existing car shortage on the
railroads have been well set forth by Senator Ke-
losg. Of Minnesota. According to his figures the roads
as q whole added 10000 cars on the average in each
Of the FIVE years before the They retired about co.
600 per year. leaving annual increase in car
suppy Of about 10000. In the two years and two
months during which the roads have been under Federal
control only 100000 cars have been purchased, while
the rate of car retirement greater than formerly
due 10 the tremendous increase in traffic account of the
war
These cars have been less than half those required to
take Of ordinary replacemens in other words there
has been net decrease of 100000 during the period
of Federal control Mr. Kellogg charges that instead of
getting busy and turning out cars. the Railroad admins
ration spent FIVE precious months trying to andardize the
cars and locomotives Meanwhile the cost Of material
up shops got busy on other work. and the cars were
never forthcoming
What striking parallel it is between the car situation
and other projects of the Wilson administration such as
The airplane program. Instead of adopting designs of
approved efficiency, ready to hand production was sac
i6ced in a vain attempt to remod entire industries.

HUNT VALUES NOT HIGH PRICE,

HUNT VALUES NOT HIGH PRICES.
MONoNGAH, w. Va, Feb. 10
Editor The West. Virginian. IL read
and hear great deal about high cost
Of living, aad wish to express my
views through your columns.
In my opinion the people are greatly
to blame for this. Talking TO one OF
our merchants was told that he had a
customer to come in and ask for o
pair OF shoes. This is HIS description
Of what happened: 81 showed a $500
pair; customer says not good enough
showed the same shoe at $500. Let
me see little better pair. / showed
him the same shoe at $500. He paid
for them and went away satisfied"
What is a merchant to do? He
has his goods for sale. The same man
told me that men he used to sell cot
ton hose to will not have them now.
Nothing but silk.
Last fall asked. one of our mer.
chants how his business was. Poor;
the goods have are too cheap, but I
have some coming that will SELL" l
do not know il his new stock came, but
later was talking to him and he said
he was doing good, had high price
goods now.
There are many people like myself
that have nothing to govern us only
