Dollar's Real Value.
Offhand we say a dollar Is worth one
hundred cents. In one way this Is true,
In another It Is not. The real value
of the dollar Is Its measure of your
wants and needs. The harder It coines
the greater should be Its worth.
A Talk With a Thomson
Man.
Mr. W. T. McCorkle, Proprietor of
Grocery on Gordon and Greenway
Streets, Tells His Experience.
There is nothing like a talk with
one of our own citizens for giving
hope and encouragement to the anx
ious sufferer from the dread kidney
disease. We, therefore, give here an
interview with a Thomson man:
“I was down with backache and
could hardly get around to do my
work,” says Mr. McCorkle. “Severe
pains flashed through my kidneys.
The kidney secretions were off color
and passed frequently at night, dis
turbing my rest. Dizzy spells came
on me and, at times, I would nearly
fall. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills,
which I got at the Gibson Drug Co.,
and soon all symptoms left me.
When my back and kidneys are not
just right, I use Doan’s and always
get relief.”
