Weak Kidneys Make Weak Bodies.

KIDNEY DISEASES CAUSE HALF THE COMMON ACHES AND ILLS OF RENSSELAER PEOPLE. As one weak link weakens a chain so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking down. Overwork, strains, colds and other causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity is lessened the whole body suffers from the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood. Aches and pains and'languor and urinary ills come, and there is an ever increasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright’s disease. There is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help. Doan’s Kidney Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney HL

C. L. Westbrook, Broadway, Monticello, Ind., says: “Doan’s Kidney Pills did me a great deal of good and I am glad to recommend them. My back was very lame and sharp pains would often dart across my loins. I could not rest well at night and had but little strength or energy. I noticed that the secretions from my kidneys were disordered and seeing Doan’s Kidney Pills advertised for such complaints, I procured a box and began their use. They benefited me greatly and I have not been troubled in any way by my kidneys since.’’ Plenty more proof like this from Rensselaer people. Call at B. F. Fendig’s drug store and ask what customers report For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name—Doan’s—and take no other.

Senator Gore’s Speech Interesting.

Senator Gore, thb blind senator from Oklahoma, who addressed the large audience democratic day, following the speech by Hon. John W. Kern, delivered a most pleasing address, and kept the attention of the large audience. He related many little incidents in the most happy way, and indulged in some flights of oratory that caused some of bls hearers to declare that he was the most eloquent speaker ever in Rensselaer. He did not get far away from the old line democratic argument of opposition, but he made the most of a bad opportunity, for Hoosier fanners are hard to convince that tariff reform and bank deposit guarantees are worth taking a risk for.
