A TALK WITH A CHARLES
TOWN MAN
MIR. Everhart Tells Something of In
terest to Charles Town Folks.

There's nothing more convincing
than the statement of someone YOU
know and have confidence in. That's
why this talk with Mr.. Everhart of
w. Washington street. should be
mighty helpful here in Charles
Town.
Ferd Everhart, prop. radio and
music store. sol w. Washington St.
Charles Town, says: my kidneys
were in bad shape and | had sharp
miserable pains in the small of nv
back. | had to get up during the
night to pass the kidney secretions.
] had headaches and dizzy spells and
felt all tired out / couldn't stir up
much ambition. Doan's Pills from
White & Scott Drug Co.. helped a
great deal"
Mr.. Everhart is only one of many
Charles Town people who have CRATE
fully endorsed Doan's Pills. If your
back aches-if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy-ask distinctly for DOAN'S
PILLS. the same that Mr.. Everhart
had-the remedy backed by home
testimony. 60 cents at all dealers.

CHEVROLET BREAKS RECORD.

With a total of 65.041 automo-
biles produced during March, the
Chevrolet Motor Company smashed
all previous monthly records for a
single months production of mod
ern speed transmission motor cars
by any automobile manufacturer.
A new manufacturing record is
practically assured for April produc-
tion.
Originally the March schedule was
set for $500 cars. It was increas-
ed when demands from dealers indi-
Gated sales would be far ahead of
the proposed schedule
The total March production, with
25 working days in the month, aver
aged over 2,601 cars daily, and rep
resents a total increase in produc-
tion over March. 1925, of 1868,
when 41.383 cars were manufactur-
ed.
The two preceding months of
January and February also set rec
ords. In January 1926. 46.1S2 units
were produced. three times the cars
made in January. 1925. In February.
1926. 81 1903 cars were made, nearly
twice the production of February
1925.
An unprecedented and steady de-
mand during the winter months for
the new improved Chevrolet models
is responsible for the setting of new
production figures. which have kept
night and day shifts at the factory
working at high pressure.
