Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 58, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 6 April 1909 — THE BRINK IS NEAR. [ARTICLE]

THE BRINK IS NEAR.

Few Rensselaer People Know How Near It Is. Every time you neglect backache. Allow the kidneys to become clogged. Fail to cure urinary disorders. You get nearer the brink of Bright’s disease. Doan’s Kidney Pills will save you from danger. Mrs. Wm. A. White, 729 Seventeenth St., Logansport, Ind., says: “Kidney complaint clung to my husband for over three years. He had frequent backaches and when he stopped or lifted, sharp twinges would dart through his body. There were so many other symptoms showing that his kidneys were out of order, that he at last decided to try a kidney remedy and having seen Doan’s Kidney Pills highly advertised, procured a box. They cured him in a short time, and he has had no return of the complaint from that day to this, which is over ten years." 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—Dona’s—and take no other.

Father Charles Dhe, pastor of the Fowler Catholic church, was criticised by the Fowler Leader for alleged false teachings regarding Lent. Father Dhe replies to the allegations through the Fowler Review challenging the editor of the Leader, John P. Carr, to put up SIOO in any Fowler bank along with SIOO that he will put up, and the money to be forfeited for charitable purposes if Carr fails to prove his charges, or Father Dhe’s money to be forfeited if he does prove them. Father Dhe says, “I have found out what I was told when coming to Fowler six months ago was true, that you are a narrow, bigoted ignoramus.” Carr does not permit his newspaper to come to the Republican exchange table. Some years ago he engaged in a newspaper controversy with former Editor Marshall and the latter took his measure so completely that Long John cut the Republican off his mailing list and he has refused to thaw out to the new owners. John was born with a silver spoon in his. mouth and a lot of bile in his belly. A petition for a local option election was filed with John P. Roresman, auditor of Tippecanoe county, Friday afternoon. The petition or rather a collection of petitions, contains 3,730 names. The law requires that the petition fchould have 20 per cent of the voters of the county, which would mean about 2,200 names.
