COMFORTING WORDS.
Many a McConaellsburg Household Will
Find Them So.
To have the pains and aches of
a bad back removed to be en
tirely free from annoyiDg, dan
gerous urinary troubles, is well
enough to make any kidnev suf
ferer grateful. The followii g ad
vice of one who had suffered will
prove comfortine words to hun
dreds of McConnellsburg read
ers. F. M. Taylor, civil engineer,
Water St., McConnellsburg, says
"I suffered from severe pains in
my back and loins. I had weak
kidneys, the action being irregu
lar. Doan's Kidney Pills gave
me great relief. I always take
them with me when I go out of
town, because if I catch cold, 1
get a slight attack of the trouble.
When this occurs, I can always
depend on Doan's Kidney Pills
?or relief."
Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask lor a Kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills the
same that Mr. Taylor had.

ROOSTER WOULD FIGHT ARMY
At Least That 'll Oregon Man's Opln
Ion of Fowl That Attacked and
Disabled Him.
Down on a farm near tlie Furnish
dam there is a rooster that L. A. Mo !
Clintock, local implement dealer,
thinks, should be on the fighting J
front over in Europe or down in
Mexico. "The blnnkety blank would
fight nn, army by himself," he says,
and he speaks from a painful experi
ence that put him on the hospital
list.
In company with Sam Tnine, V.
C. E. Pruitt and Elbert Stickler, lie
went down to the Furnish dam the
other day in quest of good fishing. As
the anglers were walking through the
barnyard at the ranch there a big
Bull Cochin rooster strutted out with
ruffled feathers. Evidently he was in
a k'lligerent mood ns a result of the
trespass upon his preserves.
Coining up behind McClihtock,
he delivered a sturdy pock at the im
plement man's calf, which was pro
tected by a knee boot. The rooster
was not to be denied by any such de
fense. Walking amund in front of
McClintock, he leaped into the air
and drove his shaq spurs home just
above the knee, one on either side,
delivering at the same time a stout
blow from his beak.
The spurs entered the flesh and
struck the tendons of the leg. Mc
Clintock had to be helped to an auto
mobile, so effectively had the old
rooster crippled him. l?y the time
he reached home his leg was swollen
and stiff, anil he could not use it for
some days. rendletnn (Ore.) Dis

Auto Wheel Afire.
A touring party from Bedford
had a peculiar experience Mon
day not far from Chambersburg,
on the Lincoln Highway. When
descending the Tuscarora moun
tain the break on one of the rear
wheels became overheated and
set the wheel afire. The trouble
was not discovered until all the
spokes were badly charred, and
practically burned off,
After the blaze had been ex
tinguished the party believed
that they could still reach Cham
bersburg on the damaged whe-1. '
Near the home of S. S. Reisher,
the spokes gave way and the ma- j
chine crashed to the ground. The j
