Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 63, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 March 1915 — DOING THEIR DUTY. [ARTICLE]

DOING THEIR DUTY.

Scores of Rensselaer Readers Are Learning the Duty of the Kidneys. To filter the blood is the kidneys’ duty. When they fail to do this the kidneys are weak. Backache and other kidney ills may follow. Help the kidneys do their work. Use Doan’s Kidney Pills—-the tested kidney remedy. Rensselaer people endorse their worth. Nelson Randle, N. Main St., Rensselaer, says: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills at different times when suffering from a lame and aching back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. I got this medicine at Fendig’s Drug Store. Relief soon followed its use and the-backache and other kidney ailments were removed. Ido not know of a case where Doan's Kidney Pills have failed to prove , of benefit.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy:—get Doan’s Kidney; Pills —the same that Mr. Randle had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.

Ben May, of Remington, and Glenn Pevler, off Danville, 111., have been buying some good horses in this neighborhood the past several days and today took nine head of Remington, where Pevler will ship the ones he bought to Louis Talbott, Of Wabash. Mr. May sold four fine draft colts to one buyer from Danville, HL, last week, getting $775 for them. They were all raised in the neighborhood of Remington. He also bought the big Pullins horse last Saturday, paying $220 for him. The horse weighed pounds.

The suggestion of L. F. Hopkins, who was raised in this city and who will be remembered by all who went to high school in the latter eighties, that Rensselaer procure a tract for golf links has resulted in some favorable comment and it is possible that it may be adopted. Joe Reynolds, also of Chicago, is a golf enthusiast and puts in about all of his spare time at the links. Our neighbors over in Newton county, having the advantage of George Ade’s Hazelden links, have been playing the game for the past two or three years and during the summer and fall the mael population of Brook is so wrapped up in the game that you can’t hardly find a man in town during the afternoons. It is a great game, all right, judged by the ardent praise all the players give it.

Probably the woodpecker is, the most Valuable of all birds for the destruction of worms and bugs that are injurious to the fruit and shade trees and no greater good fortune can befall you in the raising of fruit than to have a number of 'these birds locate with you for the summer. In Brookline, Mass., fruitless efforts to kill a certain tree scale by spraying efforts were made and finally it was found/ that the woodpecker subsisted largely on this scale. Houses were provided for the woodpecker last year and the plan worked out os well that this year the city council made an appropriation of $750 for the building of other woodpecker boxes. They make their nests in these instead of drilling holes in telephone poles and dead limbs. The dead limbs are unsightly and should be cut off, but this destroys the woodpecker’s home unless other provision for him is made.
