1,242 votes. The primary was held
yesterday instead of May 3 because.
of the fact that the vote to consider
the city manager plan In April had
caused a postponement.' The pri

thusiasm, and only sixty per cent of'
the voters cast ballots.

Mrs. Kurfess' score was .1,1188

Earl E. Creamer, the third candidate,
eighty-five. The closest contests on
the respective tickets developed in
the races of the four councllmen-at-large.
Mrs. Kurfesn" election is due, it is
said, to her quiet and thorough can

What a pity that so many people
past middle age are worried with
lame backs, aching kidneys, poor
eyesight, sick headaches, dizziness,
gravel, dropsy or distressing urinary
ills. Kidney weakness brings these
discomforts In age or youth, and la
a dangerous thing to neglect lot It
leads to Bright' disease and uric
acid poisoning. Doan's Kidney Pills
have brought new streng to many
Hartford old people. Ask your
neighbor. You will make no mistake
by following the example of L. P.!
Turner, retired farmer, Clay St.,
Hartford. Ha says: "I am glad to
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills, be
cause they relieved , me when my
htldneys and back gave ma trouble. I
consider Doan'a Kidney Pills a re
liable kidney medicine and deserv
ing of great praise." (Statement
given November 16, 1911.)
On January 25, 1(21, Mr. Turner
said: "I bavehad no reason to
change my mind about tha reliabili
ty of Doan'a Kidney Pills. They
have practically cured mo for I
haven't taken them for a long time."
