SOME GOOD ADVICE

Strengthened by Clovis Experiences.
Kidney disease is too dangerous TO
neglect, At the first sign of backache
headache, dizziness or uniary disor.
ders you should give the weakened
kidneys prompt attention. Eat little
meat, take things easier and use a
reliable kidney tonic. Thehc's no
other kidney medicine so we'll re-
commended as Doan's Kidney Pills.
Clovis people rely on them. Here's
one Of the many statements from
Clovis people.
Mrs. Arthur Andrews, $40 N. Gid
ding ST., says: "My advice to any
one suffering from disordered kid
neys is to try Doan's Kidney Pills for
they certainly are fine. Several
years ago I took them for weakness
in my back and other symptoms Of
kidney complaint. They certainly
did what was claimed for them and
soon removed the annoyance. Doan's
Kidney Pills are fine and l can con-
scientiously endorse them"

 The Daily Mail, published by North cliffe, was at the forefront of those who, bare six or eight months ago, were trying to laugh prohibition to an early death. Scarcely day passed without one to four direct or indirect humorous slurs appearing in the Daily Mail-the object always laughing to scorn the prohibition issue, which was always referred to as 'pussyfootism." !"
 To-day the same Daily Mail has sent a special correspondent scurrying over England, Scotland and Ireland to sound out the country. much In the same way that a New York daily might scout across the country to-day to gather the opinion of the nan in the street regarding the impending Presidential election.
 'Tn tour of the British Isles today one detects three distinctive states of mind in relation to prohibitions" the Daily Mail reports.
 Tn Ireland 'pussyfoot' is frank. free farce.
 Tn Scotland he is being taken quite seriously.
 Tn England there is a tendency to raise the Falstaffian tankard and to say uncomplimentary things about the intruder-and yet all the wiser men are adding: We've got to look out z"
