To Cut Out 14 Miles ol Kinks A petition to straighten Pat-

oka river from a point near Winslow to a point near Dongola, is now in the hands of the councy commissioners of Pike. The distance between Winsiow and Dongola is 21 miles by the course of the stream and the straighten ing of the river by means of a

canal 70 to 80 feet wide at the

top will shorten the stream four

teen miles with a direct course

of seven miles

The river where the contem

plated change is to be made is

very crooked, affording a number of horseshoe bends which will be utilized in building the

canal by connecting with the

original channel wherever it

comes in alignment with the pro

posed course. Tne engineering project wi'l reclaim considerable fertile lands besides saving many hundred acres from overflow.

Jasper People Receiving the Full Benefit. There have been many casös like the folio ving in Jasper Everyone relates the experience

of people we know. These plain

straightforward statements will

do much toward relieving the

suffering of thousands. Such

testimony will be read with interest by many people.

William Jahn, Newton btreet, fasper, Ind , says: I know of a

case of kidney trouble where

Doan's Kindey Pills were used

with grt at benefit. The person

suffered from lameness across the hips and this was accompanied by a dull, gnawing pain through the back. When I saw

Doan's Kidney Pills advertised.

it occured to me that they might be just the remedy that was needed and I procured a supply

at Flick and Pfau's Drug; Store.

Their use brought the desired

relief and proved of benefit in

every way. I consider Doan s ,

Kidney Pills an effective kidney

medicine." (Statement given

April 14. 1907 )

Lasting Results On March 24, 1910, when Mr. ;

Jahn was interviewed, he con-!

irmed his former statement and j

added: "The great benefit de

rived in the case I have previous-

y desenbed has been permanent. '
