This fellow is one of those Republicans who believes in doing things. See?

PERTINENT TO FARMERS

Every hour seems to draw this country nearer to war. No man can assure us that we will escape, for no man knows. \ The year 1917 may see us shut off from all source of supplies from the outer world, and dependent entirely upon local production. Facing such a possibility, it is incumbent upon every farmer to cultivate to the limit of his acreage and ability, and the town person who has a vacant lot should do the same. The time to begin is now. ' If X© Place armies in the field those armies must be fed—and the products come from the farms. A characteristic of Christiania is the presence of youth. Many children and yonng men and women attend educational institutions in the city.. ■ . V

A GOOD FRIEND.

A good friend stands by you when in need. Rensselaer people tell how Doan’s Kidney Pills have stood the' test. Mr. McGee endorsed Doan’s over eight years ago and again confirms the story. Could you ask for more convincing testimony? ,

Landy McGee, Rensselaer, says: "I suffered from a lame back and had such severe pains across my loins that I could hardly move around. I couldn’t sleep or rest well. My kidneys were weak and too active and the secretions were (highly colored. I doctored and' used several different medicines, but nothing seemed to relieve me until I began taking Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at B. F. Fendig’s drug 'store. The backache and pains in- my loins soon ■ left and the kidney secretions became natural. I haven’t suffered from any of these troubles since.” (Statement given May 31, 1907.) On February 29, 1916, Mr. McGee said: "Doan’s Kidney Pills are still my standby. I think they are a great medicine and I am never without them in the house.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills —the same that Mr. McGee has twice pulblicly recommended. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.
