THE GREAT COMMISSIONERS

Four are the great corner
stones upon which Elkdom is
founded.
Nothing of this is secret; no.
thing hidden.
Charity: Justice: Brotherly
Love: Fidelity
-Four square Elkdom stands be-
fore the world, built upon these.
Nearly one million loyal Amer
leans today are banded within
the ranks of this, the greatest
American Order. Many race is
there; many a creed From the
far lands of the earth have come
the forefathers Of the men who
meet today beneath the symbol of
the branching antlers, in the light
Of the shining star, by the clock
whose hands point to the hour of
eleven.
From every walk of life they
have come. The native born
American whose forefathers trod
this continent and carved a ma
ton from the wilderness, meets
within the brotherhood OF Elkdom
the man who came to these
shores from harried lands half a
world away, seeking freedom
and finding it. The loyalty and
faith of the one is no greater
than the faith and loyalty of the
other
Both are men. Both are Amer
leans. Both have their faul s.
Both have their virtues.
Little use have they for fanatic
belief that damns those whose
faith is different from theirs.
They are men, They are hu-
man. They know the good that
lives in men, the weakness, the
strength and the evil. They know
that through uncounted centur-
les this strange mixture of good
and evil, of weakness and
strength, has made a world of
rich contrasts: has marked hui
manity that with stumbling steps
presses toward a goal either here
on earth or past the Gates of
Death-or perchance with both.
They know the work of love,
the play time and battle time,
that are humanity's common her
itage
Knowing, they are charitable,
they are just. they meet in broth
erly love, they keep the faith.
"The faults of our brothera we
write upon the sand; their viz
tues upon the tablets of Love and
Memory.
That is Elkdom.
Beneath the banner blazoned
with that message. what man who
is a man can fail to thrill with
the certain knowledge that he is
part of such q Brotherhood of
Men? What man can fail to know
that in bringing within such an
Order the men he finds worthy,
he is serving more than that
Order-he is serving his country
and those great principals of hu-
nanity itself, that have lived
through the ages-that will live
when we who are now banded to
support them will be dust of the
dust.

ONE DAY ONLY
They Come miles to See Him

Dr. Doran is regular graduate in
medicine and surgery and is licensed
by the State of Kansas. He visits
professionally the more important
towns and cities, and offers to all
who call on this trip consultation and
examination free, except the expense
of treatment when desired.
According to his methods of coming
he gives all the sick people an oppor-
tunity to obtain the best that medical
science can offer right at home. He
does not operate for chronic appen-
dicitis, gall stones, ulcers or stomach,
tonsils or adenoids.
He has to his credit many wonder
full results in disease of the stomach,
liver, bowels, blood, skin, nerves,
heart, kidney, bladder bed wetting,
catarrh, leg ulcers and rectal all
ments.
If you have been ailing for any
length of time and do not get any
better, do not fail to call, as impro-
per measure rather than disease are
very often the cause of your long
standing trouble.
Remember above date, that exam
nation on this trip will be free and
that his treatment is different.
Married ladies must come with
their husbands, and children with
their parents.

PERFECT CONFIDENCE
WaKeeney People Have Coed Reason
For Complete Reliance

Do you know how
To find relief from backache;
To correct distressing usinary ills;
To assist weak kidneys?
Your neighbors know the way
Have used Doan's Kidney Pills;
Have proved their worth in many
tests. Ask your neighbor.
Here's WaKeeney testimony.
A. c.. Sellers says: 81 have used
Doan's Kidney Pills on several oc-
casions and ON account of the good re-
suits they have brought each time, I
can recommend them as doing what is
claimed for them. Doan's Kidney
pills always strengthen my kidneys
and give me relief from backache and
kidney disorders

simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
