Don’t Mistake the Cause of your Troubles—An Americus Citizen Shows How to Cure Them. Many people never suspect their kid neys. If suffering from a lame, weak or aching back they think that it is only a muscular weakness; when urinary trouble sets in they think it will soon correct itself. And so it is with all the other symptoms of kidney disorders. That is just where the danger lies You must cure these troubles or they lead to diabetes or Bright’s disease. The best remedy to use is Doan’s Kid ney Pills. It cures all ills which are caused by weak or diseased kidneys, Americus people testify to permanent cures. A. A. Willett, a well known farmer living just outside of Americus, says: “I believe that your pills are all that is claimed for them. I had kidney trou ble and backache, from which I had been a sufferer for many years. After lying or sitting in one position for any length of time I could hardly get up on account of the dull heavy pain in the small of my back. At times I seemed to almost lose the use of my back, and would have to take bold of something for support. The kidney secretions * were disordered, being dark and full of sediment, and of a strong odor. I used many different remedies but without' much if any benefit until I got Doan’s Kidney Pills. Since using them my back feels strong. - The pain has lelt it, and the kidney secretions have also been restored to a normal condition. You are welcome to use my name as a reference.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

THE HORSE CAME TO THE RESCUE And Pulled The Autolsts Back to Montezuma. / Lee Hansford has an automobile. Just now' it is in a blacksmith’s shop at Montezuma, w'hile tlie“motto” is chew ing hay in ia livery stable near by. Mr. Hansford bought the auto in Ma con and, with ehaffeur perched along side and goggles all’adjusted, set sail for Americus. The auto behaved all right until after the excursion passed through Montezuma, the handsome owner deigning to recognize faintly a walking party of friends in th suburbs but a mile out from Oglethorpe it balk ed; stopped, like grandfather's clock, and would be there yet had not an equine phenomenon not unlike an Americus hack horse been hired to pull it to town./’Col. Hansford han dled the reins and drove the steed into town with becoming dignity, rt is hardly likely that “horsepporer”w r er” w ill be retained permanently, although more reliable, A FACT PROVEN. Should Convince Even the Most Skep tical of Its Truth. If there is the slightest doubt in the minds of any that Dandruff germs do not exist, their belief is compelled by the fact that a rabbit innoculated with the germs became bald in six weeks’ time. It must be apparent to any person therefore that the only prevention of baldness is the destruction of the germ— which act is successfully accomplished in one hundred per cent, of cases by the application of Newbro’s Herpicide. Dandruff is caused by the same germ which causes baldness and can be pre vented w'ith the same remedy—Newbro’s Herpicide.
