W. C. Allen, Boseley, Mo., writes: "1
have raised a family of four children,

Compound with all of them. I find it
tn*> nest croup and cough medicine I
have ever used and 1 have used it for
eight or ten years, and can recommend
It for croup.
If toward nightfall the little ones

promptly and it will ward oft an attack
of croup.
If you are awakened by the hoarse

quickly, cut the thick choking phlegm,
and soon they will have easy breathing
and peaceful quiet sleep,

A Thorough Test
One to Convince the Most
Skeptical Jackson Reader
The test of time is the test that
(ounts.
Doan’s Kidney Pills have made
their reputation by effective action.
The following cae is typical.
Jackson residents should be con
vinced.
The testimony is confirmed —the
proof complete.
Testimony like this cannot be ig
nored.
Mrs. B. F. I)oe, 625 W. Solomon St.,
Griffin, Ga., says: “I suffered from
kidney trouble for a number of years.
My system seemed to be filled with
uric acid at times and I suffered a
great deal from pains in the small of
my back and in my sides. I was very
weak and nervous much of the time.
Doan’s Kidney Pills did me a great
deal of good.” (Statement given
March 25, 1998.)
DOAN’S ON HAND
On Feb. 12, 1915, Mrs. Doe said: “I
always have Doan’s Kidney Pills on
hand and they keep my back and kid
neys in good order.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t sim
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mrs. Doe has twice publicly recom
mended. Foster-Milburn Cos., Props.,

What Does
Catarrh Mean?
It means inflammation of a
mucous membrane some
where in the head, throat,
bronchial tubes, stomach, bil
iary ducts or bowels. It always
means stagnant blood —the
blood that is full of impur
ities. Left alone, it extends
until it is followed by indigestion,
colds, congestion or fever. It weakens
the system generally and spreads its
operations until systemic catarrh or
an acute illness is the result.
Peruna
Is the nation’s reliable remedy for
this condition. It restores appetite,
aids digestion, checks and removes
inflammation, and thus enables the
membranes, through which we breathe
and through which our food is ab
sorbed, to do their work; properly.
Forty-four years of success, with thou
sands of testimonials, have established
it as the home remedy—Ever-Rcndy
to-Take. Its record of success
bolds a promise for you.

scribed in paragraph 1 of this section of
this Article, and without regard to the
uniformity of such salaries in the va
rious circuits; and shall have the fur
ther power to determine what disposi
tion shall be made of the fines, for

and the voters thereat shall have writ

of Solicitors General,” or "Against rati
fication of amendment to Paragraph l. of
Section 13. of Article 6, of the Constitu
