When you come to think of it
the country is suffering as much
from “Smart Alecism” as any
other one thing. Where good
business men, men of broad vis
ion and common sense, are need
ed you find peanut politicians who
are trying to glorify themselves
and the public business suffers.
Now is a good time to weed out
the small fry.

These Figures Will Make
Jackson People Take
Notice
Deaths from kidney disease have in
creased 72 per cent in twenty years.
People overdo nowadays in so many
ways that the constant filtering of poi
soned blood weakens the kidneys. Be
ware of fatal Bright’s disease. When
backache or urinary ills suggest weak
kidneys, uoe Doan’s Kidney Pills, live
carefully, take things easy and avoid
heavy eating. Doan’s Kidney Pills de
mand confidence, for no other kidney
remedy is so widely used or so generally
successful. Home endorsement is the
best proof of merit. Read this Jack
son resident’s story:
Mrs. F. L. Walthall, Lyons st.,
Jackso.i, says: “I suffered severely
from pains in the small of my back.
I couldn’t rest well at night and in
the morning was sore and lame
When I bent over, I got a sharp
catch in my back and I could hnrldy
straighten up. I staggered at times
from dizziness and objects
floated before iny eyes. The kidney
secretions were unnatural. Doan's
Kidney Pills relieved these symp
toms of kidney trouble and strength
ened my back.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same
that Mrs. Walthall had. Foster

Changeable Weather Brings

The changeable weather of March
