ALMOST FRANTIC Had Kidney Trouble From Childhood and Was Discouraged. Doan's, However, Brought Health and Strength. Mrs. C. Anderson, 4104 WW. 22nd 8t., Chleago, Ili, says: “I had kid- ney trouble from childhood and three years ago a severe spell de- veloped. If I stooped, a terrible pain took me in the small of my back, and for several min- utes I couldn't straighten. Often at night the pain in my back was so bad I had to prop my- self up with a pil- low, It seemed as if my back would break. Watery sacs formed under my eyes and my feet were swol- len I had to wear slippers. Sud- den dizzy spells came on and pains in my head drove me almost fran- tic. “I felt tired and weak and had hardly enough ambition to move. Nothing seemed to help me and I was discouraged until 1 commenced taking Doan’'s Kidney Pills. They cured me completely and my health has been of the best ever since. Doan’'s surely deserves my endorse- ment.” Sworn to before me, FRANK H. POCH, Notary Public. Get Doan’s at Any Store, 60c a Box DOAN’S ®IpNey PILLS FOSTER-MILBURN CO., BUFFALO, N. Y.

ONE of the most i6- | teresting events in the life of the great war president oc curred at a time when he was litle known to fame, This was in 1532, during the Black Hawk war, a war which, in propor. tion to the number of lives lost, caused more widespread fear and constergation than any other in the history of our country. When the story of the battle at Stlll- man's Run, where a small band of sav- ages put to flight a whole regiment of soldiers, and also that of the massacre at the Davis farm, where fifteen wom- tn and children where murdered, was spread through the country there was scarcely a farmhouse all through the middle West that was not deserted.

Winfleld Scott, | command at Fort Snelling, | in the Illinois volunteers. In the lan- these lleutenants was “a very fascl- nating young man of easy manners and | affable disposition, while the other was equally pleasant and extremely mod- est. It is further stated that “a tall, homely young man dressed in blue | jonne” presented himself to the lleu- tenants as captain of a company of | volunteers and was duly sworn In. | one who administered the oath’ of allegiance to the “young man in| fascinating manners above mentioned.
