DEEDS, NOT WORDS Richmond People Have Absolute Proof of Deeds at Home. It's not words but deed that prove true merit. The deeds of Doan's Kidney Pills, For Richmond kidney sufferers, Have made their local reputation. Proof lies in the testimony of Richmond people. R. C. Lankert, retired farmer, 221 N. Fifth St., Richmond, says: "I had rheumatic pains in my back and limbs and the action of my kidneys was irregular and painful. When I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised, I used them and they soon gave me relief." Mr. Lankert is only one of many Richmond people who have gratefully endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your back aches if your kidneys bother you, don't simply ask for a kidney remedy ask distinctly for Doan's Kidney Tills, the same that Mr. Lanke had the remedy backed by home testimony. 50c all stores.

When the trans-Atlantic liner "Rochambeau" had warped into her dock four dignified men came down the gangplank. A handsomely dressed woman rushed up, with arms extended: "Maistro," she cried, "I am so happy to see you; so very happy." "Ah, Kutscherra, Kutscherra," cried one man and allowed her to put her arms about him. But then suddenly he pushed her away and shouted "No, no, no, you are a German. Away, away." And turning to his companions he beckoned them and left the dock without another look at the grief stricken woman. Such was the greeting of Camille Saint Saens, the far-famed French composer, to Mme. Elies Kutscherra, the Wagnerian lietier singer friend of royalty, and for the past fifteen years, associated with Saint Saens in professional work.

That the motor truck Is of considerable advantage to country folk and residents of the smaller towns In the vicinity of Richmond is apparent in the fact that four trucks are now making daily trips into and from this city. The Lynn-Fountain City bus ia making two trips daily whenever that is possible. The New Paris, Ohio, truck transports commodities only. The Glen Karn bus during its stay in Richmond stays in front of the Deering store on Seventh street and the Liberty truck stops at the side of Romey's Fv.rniture store on Ninth street. Lines Carry Hundreds. The bus lines form valuable auxiliaries to transportation facilities which in eome directions are limited. Each week hundreds of persons and commodities valued at several- hundred dollars are carried to and from the city by this system. The motor trucks make the trips to Richmond in a few hours, which by rail would require two days, in some cases, and would mean travel over a circuitous route. Much trade which would other

wise have boen diverted elsewhere is

being brought to Richmond merchants and wholesalers.

Liberty has no direct line of communication, except the truck which is much more convenient than the railroad changes through Connersville and Cottage Grove. This truck line has

done a thriving business for almost two years, being the pioneer. The Glen Karn bus allows shoppers from that city to make in one day a trip which formerly occupied two days and one night away from home. In addition to this disadvantage the in

convenience of changing trains was! experienced. Citizens of Glen Karn ; addressed an appeal to the Palladium , faf , better transportation facilities. i Trie truck line was the answer to their'

; request. j

i Although directly connected by rail

I Fountain City and Lynn residents i ! have found the truck which makes ! two trips duily and Sunday a boon. I The journey formerly required prac-1 ; tically a whole day, trains running at j inconvenient times. The truck has! : been loaded with freight and pas- j ; scngers on every trip since it was started. These bus lines are drawing Uhe smaller towns much closer to Richmond.
