advantage In her now picture but a
dramatic finesse such as she has never
before displayed on cither stago or
6creen is also apparent. In addition

and other cinema triumphs. Staged at

ANNOYING KIDNEY ILLS.
Make Life Miserable for Many La
Grande People.
There's nothing more annoying
than the kidney weakness or inability
to properly control the kidney secre
tions. Night and day alike, the suf
ferer is tormented and what with the
burning and scalding, the attendant
backache, headache and dizziness, life
is indeed, a burden. Doan's Kidney
Vilis have given peace and comfort to
many La Grande people. Profit by
this La Grande resident's experience.
Mrs. E. I. Shepherd, 104 Spruce St.,
La Grande, says: "I couldn't begin to
speak too highly of Doan's Kidney
Pills, for I have never found any
thing their equal whenever I have had
occasion to take a kidney medicine.
Just as soon as I notice my kidney
are not acting as they should and my
back feel weak, I take a few doses
of Donn's Kidney Pills and they re
lieve the trouble."

ply ask for a kidney remedy--et
