Put Up Warnings.

ISt. Adams MeSsenger.)
A few days ago The Messenger referred
TO some of the u~nderpasses in the state as
being as dangerous, if not more so, than
the grade crossings which they eliminated,
because of construction on a sharp curve.
Tragic point was given to this comment
recently when a fatal accident occurred
at what is known as the dry bridge
traps, and we who pass frequently over
a road and thereby become familiar with
its ms and outs must not judge of its
safety by our W standard. With those
unfamiliar with the road the condition is
entirely different. These underpasses can
not be Strengthened out all in a moment,
but there is no reason why warning sig
nails cannot be displayed. That slight
measure of protection might be afforded.

Good news travels FAST" and the
many thousands of bad back sufferers in
Brattleboro are glad to learn where re-
lief may be found. Many a lame, weak
and aching back is bad no more, thanks
to Doan's Kidney Pills. Our citizens
are telling the good news of their p
rience with this tested remedy. Here is
an example worth reading:
Mrs. S. G. Graves, IS S. Main St,
Brattleboro, says: Il nave used Doan's
Kidney Pills for several years and have
always found them to be just as good as
they are claimed to be. When / first
used DOan's my back and kidneys were
in a very bad condition, due to heavy
housework. My back was very lame and
sore. When 1 stopped or lifted any
thing, sharp pains in the small of my
back were unbearable. My kidneys were
weak and irregular. ] heard of Doan's
Kidney Pills and got a half dozen boxes
and in a short time they cured the trou-
bic. Since then / have used Doan's
with excellent results and 1 am glad to
recommend them"
Price Coo, at all dealers. Don't SIM
ply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs.
Graves had. Foster-MiIburn Co, Mfrs,
