DOCTORS FALL IN LINE practicing Physicians recognize the unfailing rcliah'lity of Doan’s Kidney Pills by prescribing ihcm for Backache, Kidney, bladder, and Urinary. Disorders—as — a tribute wei by no other Proprleta-y Medicine. Four cases cited from -Notes of His Practice,” by Dr. Le and Williamson, of Yorktown. Ark. V Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Yorktown, Ark., March f, 1904. for ten years. ' This is a very sickly climate, on the Bayou Bartholomew, near the 'Arkansas River. It is particularly malarious and miasmatic; we meet with many and various abnormal conditions of the human family, prominent among the easel in which I have been called upon to prescribe is. kidney disease. Many of these disorders manifest themselves by pains in the back, often extending to other parts of the body; sometimes headache is present, caused by uraemic or chronic acid poisoning, soreness in region of kidn'eys, cloudy, thickened and foul-smelling urine, discharges of pus or corruption; inflammation of the kidneys, extending to the bladder, is caused by excess of uric, acid and decomposition of the urine. Hemorrhage is sometimes met with, caused by high slate of inflammation or congestion. There is no class of diseases a doctor is called oftener to treat than the variety of kidney diseases, in many of which the patient will have chills or rigors, followed by fever, a result of the kidneys failing to eliminate the uric acid poison from the system. Such cases require the kidneys restored to their natural functions, then the-poison and foreign substances are removed -shock to the nervous system averted, and natural health restored. I have, for some time, been using Doan’s Kidney Pills in these many manifestations and with uniform success, curing most cases. I can further say that even in hopeless cases where they have waked too long, Doan's Kidney Pills afford much relief and prolong life. 1 can recommend the pills in conditions of excessive or deficient secretion of urine, as also in convalescence from swamp-fever and malarial attacks, as verified by the following cases in my practice.

CASE 1. THOS. OREL!,, Bear, Ark., nge CO. rein In back for several weeks, then <kiils. Irregular sometimes, severe rigors followed by fever. Gave good purgative of calomel and padoph, and Doan's Kidney Fills. After taking four boxes-of-the-pt-Hs, patient up and enjoying good health for one of his nge. CASE 2. MltS. SMITH, Tarry, Ark., age 20, mother of four children. Had female complaint and kidney trouble, manifest by pain In back and urine lrregular; sometimes very clear, changing to cloudy, and with much sediment on standing In chamber?’ Gave local treatment for female complaint and prescribed Doan’s Pills; after using six boxes she regards herself as cured.

These are a few of the typical cases in which I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills. In a great many instances I use them alone with curative results, while with some others indicated remedies are associated. I believe that by the judicious use of Doan’s Pills many serious complications are arrested and many hopeless and incurable cases of Bright’s disease prevented. , I have often found that one box of the- pills is all that is required to effect a cure, but in some cases I continue their use until all symptoms are entirely absent and the cure effectual and permanent.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL

~~ Dun's weekly review of LDICdGO. Chicago trade says; . a 1 With wheat commanding present prices and other produce sharing in the advance this gratifying measure of added prosperity means much to the agricultural classes and provides a healthful stimulus to general business and the promise of larger dealings developing in this market. Ollier favorable features are not lacking. The movement of merchandise increased during the week, buying became more active in the jobbing linis and the expected improvement in demand for iron was confirmed in freer commitments. Retail trade has shown more breadth, ne- " cessilics having experienced a well sustained consumption, and the advance spring styles exhibited were well patronized. Travel was less impeded by adverse weather and visiting buyers appeared in increased mi mfrerg. rcsiiltiiig in augmented dealings throughout the jobbing lines. The uncertain position of raw cotton and scarcity of finished goods caused some hesitation in the buying for country stores, but the better qualities of dress goods and silk materials were in favor. * Iron and steel emerged from their recent quiptude, the new demands reaching iurge tonnage in rails, wire product* and j>ig iron. Prices were slightly shaded tor immediate deliveries to smelters, but finished materials were quoted firm lynd for steel bars and nails tending higher. Requirements for railroad and structural purposes have shown notable expansion, and implement and machinery makers are now larger consumers. Lumber dealings were more active, mostly on country orders, but the city trade in hard woods showed less dullness. Shipments of grain, including 1,022,477 bushels of corn, aggregated 2,223,669 bushels, an increase of fully 7 per cent over a year ago. Receipts at primary markets have become heavier, farmers finding prices advantageous. The speculative markets were srrongly intlneneed by various bullish conditions in addition to the war news, and quotations advanced easily, the closings compared with a week ago showing gains in th'e May options, for wheat 7 cents, corn cents and oats 2% cents. Failures in the Chicago district number 28, against 25 the previous week and 26 a year ago.

“ , R. G. Dun & Co.’s Nglf YOrK. Weekly Review of Trade — last week says: Inclement weather alone prevents n definite revival of business. Outdoor work is "retarded and traffic impeded to an extent that cannot be accurately measured, but is obviously sufficient to neutralize the favorable effect of many encouraging factors, while winter wheat is threatened, although not yet definitely injured, and early farm preparations must he postponed. Several leading branches of manufacture are increasing active capacity, and thousands of interior buyers are placing liberal orders at the principal cities. The usual temporary advantages of war are felt in the markets for staple commodities, notably food stuffs, but, while this helps the domestic producer, it harms a much larger number by enhancing prices to home consumers. There is little friction between employers and wage earners, except regarding the bituminous scale. Despite interruption by storms, railway earnings thus far reported for February were only 4 per cent smaller than a year ago. when there was also much severe weather. Foreign trade returns for the last week at this port show an increase of $1,152,012 in value of exports, as compared with last year, but imports were slightly smaller. Financial conditions are satisfactory, money remaining easy and foreign exchange undisturbed by complications abroad.

INTERESTING TO AMERICANS.

Western Canada Will s=oon Become the Supply Depot for Wheat for Great Britain. During the past year about 50,C0£ Americans went from the United States to Canada. Most of these settled upon farm lands, and the writer is Informed by agents of the Canadian Government that the greatest success has followed the efforts of nearly all. To their friends on this side of the boundary line the fullest assurance is given of the prosperity that Is in store for them. There will alxvays be a splendid market for all the grain, cattle and other produce that can be raised in Western Canada, and With the advantages offered of a free homestead of 160 acres of land, and other lands which may be bought cheaply, au excellent climate, splendid school system, educational advantages of the best, what more is required ? The husbandman gets more return for his money than in any other country in the world.' On the occasion of Sir Wilfred Laurier's visit to the Corn Exchange, London, England, Colon-el Montgomery, V. D„ made several important statements. “The function (he said) which you have just been assisting In connection with a kindred association has doubtless shown you the importance of the provision trade of Liverpool In its relationship with tlie Dominion and the enormous possibilities of the future development of that trade. Well, the grain trade of Liverpool has interests with Canada no less important than those of the provision trade. When it Is borne in mind that 80 per cent of the breadstuffs of this groat country

have come to rely upon It almost entirely for the many little things for which I need medicine. "When epidemics of la grippe first began to make their appearance in this country I was a sufferer from this disease. ‘‘l had several long sieges with the frip. At first I did not know that 'eruna was a remedy for this disease. When I heard that la grippe was epidemic catarrh, 1 tried Peruna for la grippe, and found It to be just the thing.”—lsaac Brock. Pe-ru-na Used In the Family for Years. Mrs. E. West, 137 Main street, Menasha, Wis., writes: “We have used Peruna in our family for a number of years and when I say that it is a fme jncdiciue for catarrh and colds, I know what I am talking about. I have taken it every spring and fall for four years and I find that it keeps me robust, strong, ifrith splendid appetite, and free from any illness. A few years ago it cured me of catarrh of the stomach, which the doctors had pronounced inetyable. I am very much pleased with Peruua. I am 87 years old." —Mrs. E. West.

has to be brought from abroad, you will readily appreciate with what great satisfaction we view the large and steadily increasing supplies of grain which are annually available for ex port from Canada, and I challenge contradiction when I say that of the wheats we import from Russia, India, the Pacific and length and breadth of the United States, none gives more general satisfaction, none is more generally appreciated, than that raised in the Province of Manitoba. We cannot get enough of it, and it.is no exaggeration to say that there are before us dozens of millers who hunger for it. Thj3 is not the time to enter into statistical questions, but we look forword with confidence to the time at which, with the present rate of progress, the Dominion of Canada will have a sufficient surplus of wheat to render this country independent of other sources of supply. I think I may, with Justifiable pride, remind you that this is the chief grain market of the British Empire, and through its excellent geographical position, as well as through the enterprise of its millers, it is now the second milling center in the world.” Send to any authorized Canadian Government Agent for copy of Atlas and information as to railway rate, etc.
