ENDORSED AT HOME Such Proof as This Should Convince Any Canaan Citizen The public endorsement of a local citizen is the best proof that can be produced. None better, none stron ger can be had. When a man comes forward and testifies to his fellow citizens, addresses his friends and neighbors, you may be sure he is thoroughly convinced or he would not do so. Telling one's experience when it is for the public good is an act of kindness that should be ap preciated. The following statement given by a resident of Canaan adds one more to the many cases of Home Endorsement which are being pub lished about Doan's Kidney Pills. Head it. Lee R. Wickwire, Railroad- St., says.: "I am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills, for I have used them with wonderful results. I am subject to pains across the small of my back and when they come on, I use Doan'so Kidney Pills and am relieved almost immediately I know from experience that they are a wonderful medicine." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy gete Doan's Kidney Pillsthe same that Mr. Wickwire had. Foster- Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y.

A drunkard In the last tares of delirium tremens would have sense enough to know that Edwards has no chance of nomination. Senator Hitchcock did not have any chance even before the Ne braska primary, hence he had nothing to lose. Governor Cox Is their man and ba has fairly won the dishonor that be eexs.
