CERTAIN RESULTS
Many a Rensselaer Citizen Knows How Certain They Are. Nothing uncertain about the work of Doan’s 'Kidney Pills in Rensselaer. There is plenty of positive proof of this in the testimony of citizens. Such evidence should convince the most skeptical doubter. Read the following statement: Z Jacob R. Wilcox, Dayton St., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “The statement I gave for publication in May, 1907, in praise of Doan’s Kidney Pills, still holds good. The cure they effected has been permanent. I had pains through my loins and was in misery day and night. I always felt tired and worn out and was annoyed by a distressing kidney weakness. Nothing relieved me until I began taking Doan’s Kidney Pills. They were of such great benefit that I consider them worthy of the highest endorsement.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name—Doan’s — and take no other. The cold wave plus the snow and the wind hit us according to the weatherman’s forecast. The spring weather in Indiana furnishes one good advantage. It makes a fine theme for newspapermen to write about on dull days. The average newspaperman can start a poem on beautiful spring at 8 o’clock tn the morning and before he has composed the first stanza describing the glory of the mellow sun, a cloud obscures the orb and in less than an hour it is raining. The writer can thus shift from sunlight to rain and before he has composed another stanza the rain has turned to snow and he finds himself inspired to write the third verse about “the snow, the snow, the beautiful snow.” If he is of the impression that he has covered the entire field by that time, however, he is mistaken, for he has yet to describe the wind that is certain to blow from the east for a few hours. Ob, this weather business is great stuff for the newspapers and we have a distinct advantage over th& people of California and other places where there is nothing but the monotony of good weather that people don't care to read about because they have it right with them all the time. Judged by the forecast for today, we will be able to tear off another weather article tomorrow, unless we’re entirely snow bound. Ice gorges in the Eel river at Logansport resulted in a big flood Tuesday and it is reported that 200 families were driven from their homes. The water was turned from its channel by the ice gorges and rushed through the residence section of the city. Fam ilies were caught without warning and many had to be rescued from the second stories of their homes. Fences and buldings were swept away and several houses were twisted on their IfoundstioHS. Several traveling men arrlved in Rensselaer this morning and reported that the situation there had improved since yesterday, but that there seemed a possibility Tues-* day of a big section of the city being swept away.
