A Nice Photograph
of Yourself
Photographs for Christmas are always in good
taste. They area lasting reminder of the giver,
and are always appreciated by the recipient. But
remember, they should be GOOD photographs.
It always pays to go to an artistic photographer— I
one who knows how to arrange the figure—hair
—dress—pose, etc., so as to get the most perfect
and natural expression.
That we have the "know how" to obtain artistic
photos, we will leave you to judge from the many
samples of our work you can always see any time
at this studio.
Be sure to arrange for your sittings early—and
not leave it till the last minute, or perhaps you
and your friends will be disappointed.

Anna Maria Gyllstrom Bertelson
was born in Uttesberg, W^stman
land, Sweden, on June 16,1873, and
she was thus 36 years, 5 months and
11 days old at the time of death.
About 9 years ago she was married
to John Bertelson, and three chil
dren, all of whom are living, were
born to them: Ruth Emilia, aged 8,
Algot Valdemar, aged 6. and Esther
Elizabeth, aged 4. Mr. Bertelson
came to this country about three
years ago, and he worked steadily
until a year ago when he was able
to send for his family. When they
came to this city they moved into
the Lindland residence on Campbell
avenue, and here they were just
getting nicely settled when death
came and took away the wife and
mother. The sorrowing husband
and children have the sympathy of
the entire community in their be
reavement.

Or some irregularity of the

A certain remedy for such

A medicine that answers every

Is Doan's Kidney Pills, a true
specific.
Thousands of people rely upon
it.
Here is one case:
Mrs. George Simpson, 107-6th
Ave. N. E. St. Cloud, Minn ,says:
"About four years ago I had a
fall and I believe this brought on
my kidney complaint. I had a
pain through the small of my
back and across my kidneys and
I was caused annoyance by irreg
ular passage of the kidney se
cretions. I was also subject to
a a and dizzy spells.
Doan's Kidney Pills were finally
brought to my notice and I pro
cured a box. In a short time
after I began using this remedy
my trouble had entirely disap
peared. I gladly give Doan's
Kidney Pills my endorsement."
