Are you weak, tired, all worn

other folks of your age? Then look
to your kidneys! The kidneys are the
blood-filters and if they weaken, the
effect is quickly felt. You have con-

this Sank Centre resident says:
j. A. Ekberg, retired farmer, 814
Main ST., says: 81 had weak and
painful back. It took me long
time to stoop because my back was
so lame and stiff. My kidneys acted
much too frequently and I often had
to get up several times at night.
had dizzy spells also, that made
things whirl. Doan's Pills helped
me and I was cured"
Over three years later, Mr.. Ekberg

saying: "Doan's cured me several
years ago and my trouble has never
returned"

There are a number of interesting
instruments in Mr.. Jarboe's office.
There is, for instance, the nephoscope,
which is black mirror by means of
which Mr.. Jarboe measures the yclo-
city and direction OF the clouds. The
annemometer, which automatically
measures the velocity of the wind is
another interesting instrument.
Another delicate continuance is the
sunshine recorder, which consists of a
bulb of glass in which is another bulb
containing mercury. Infallibly and
constantly. this little instrument re-
cords every moment of sunshine which
comes to San Antonio. Mr.. Jarboe
says that this is the hardest working
instrument in the wcrld for the reason
that Old Sol hovers over San Antonio
so continuously as TO make one feel he
is in love with the place.
And so the instruments work on. and
many times are their records consulted.
Many interesting stories could be told

San Antonio is now becoming
aroused To her Importance. Larger
civic undertakings are being attemp-

demonstrated by the basis OH which
loans are being made for conservative
eastern institutions and also by the
valuations on which the strong chain

that San Antonio offers great OBJ
portunities for first class investments,

Never before was the outlook for
