It hurt me so to move about In bed that I would He there for a long time before I gained enough courage to turn over. The secretions from the kidneys were very unnatural, being full of sediment and hard to con trol. 1 also lost a great deal of sleep on account of the lack of control over them. I used remedy after remedy, but nothing had the slightest effect ^>n me, and work became a burden unti i went about more dead than alive. I was at tracted to Doan’s Kidney Pills by an advertisement in the paper and went to Brannen & Anthony’s drug store,’ 102 Whitehall street (also 30 Marietta street), and got a box. The use of this remedy brought about a wonder ful change. The pain has gone and the urine has been natural and free.

Not a thing against the garments we made specials of except that they are broken in the run of sizes. In weight they are what we term intermediate— fall weights. But as we say, sizes are missing. Of course with you it doesn't matter how many sizes are gone if yours is here—certainly worth while to have a look. And the new things—we believe we have gathered some exceptionally good values. Having the whole market to pick from and no en tangling alliances with any makers in particular, we’d be like scouts asleep on the trail did we not gather here the best specimens of underwear, hosiery, shirts and all the rest. The experience of long years has been our teacher, and we have not been letting our bucket down into an empty well, you may be sure of that. N.w Cotton on Market. Sp-rl.l to The Georgian.
