One of the most terrific electrical
and wind storms in recent years
passed over this section last We'd
nesday forenoon, doing considerable
| damage. The storm came up sud
denly from the southwest and lasted
about half hour. The wind blew
over a large wheat rick on the farm
of Lou Stegner, ana at the farm of
w. O. Barnes the corn crib was
blown from the foundation and part
of the roof from HIS barn. The
lightning struck and burned hay
stack for Fred Singree, and also
struck a large pine tree in front of
the residence of Emmett Duvall. and
Ia walnut tree in front of the How
ard Lindimore home in this village;
also a COW belonging to Mrs. Rosa
Brown and the front porch at the
residence of Will Hooper near Mill
grove. The corn was broken down
and twisted into a terrible condition.
Early potatoes are beginning to
rot in the ground from the exceeding
hot wet weather Oats are almost
ruined and growing badly in the
shock.

Done So

Many McConnelsyille People Have
Done So
When the kidneys are weak they
give unmistakable warnings that
should not be ignored. BY examin-
ing the urine and treating the kid
neys upon the first sign of disorder,
many days Of suffering may be saw
ed. 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, headaches, dizzy spells, tired
languid feelings and frequent rheu-
matte twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the
kidneys only. There is no better
recommended remedy.
McConnelsville people endorse
Doan's Kidney Pills.
Mrs. Margaret Hooper, Eighth ST.,
McConnelsville, says: After I had
the flu my kidneys were weak and
backache was a bother. Dull pains
were wearing on me. My back was
stiff and lame and it was a job for
me to get started. ] tired easily and
didn't feel much like doing any
thing. My kidneys were weak and
active. l purchased a box of Doan's
Kidney Pills at Sears Pharmacy and
| they helped me fine. In a short
| time / felt much better. / am glad
to say a good word for Doans be-
cause they put me in good shape"

2OOO-BARREL WELL Is
TAPPED AT SHIPR0CK

Flowing oil, said to be of the high
est grade ever found in America, was
brought in in we'll No. of the Mid
west Refining company on the Hog
back dome on the Navajo Indian res
ervation, northeast of Holbrook. This
is the third well that has been drilled
on the dome, all of which have been
flowing wells of the highest grade oil
that has been discovered in America,
showing a test of 62.6 Baume. One
other well has been drilled in this
vicinity which was off the dome and
proved to be an artesian water well.
While a genuine test has not been
made on this last strike it is believed
it will produce equal to that of No.
2 and in excess Of that of No. /, and
these latter are reported to produce
in excess Of 1900 barrels per day. Oil
men are greatly elated over this new
strike and the strike made in the
Shiprock Oil company well.
A representative of the Midwest Re-
fining company stated that the Hog
back we'll No. 4, the well in which the
oil strike was reported to have been
made, has turned out to be a 1000
barrel well, at depth Of 1928 feet.
The location of well No. in which
the strike was made. is in the north
east corner Of section "a township 29
north, range IL west, which is about
a quarter of mile west Of well No.
