This is Worth Remembering
Whenever you have a cough or
cold, just remember that Foley's
Honey and Tar will cure it Do not
risk your health by taking any but
the genuine. It is in a yellow pack
age. T. F. Laurin, Owl Drug Store.
Women with good complexions are
never homely. Good blood makes good
complexions. Lane's Family Medicine
makes good blood. All druggists sell it
for 23 cents.
Kemp's Balsam is a s&fe cough cure,
for it contains nothing that can harm
you. It is the beet cough cure, but
costs no more than any other kind. All
druggists sell it.
IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubles'"-An Astoria Citizen
Shows How to Cure Them.
Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it is only a muscular weakness;
when urinary trouble sets in they
think it will soon correct itself. And
so it is with all the other symptoms
of kidney disorders. That is just
where the danger lies. You must
cure these troubles or they may lead
to diabetes or Bright's disease. The
best remedy to use is Doan's Kid
ney Pills. It cures all ills which are
caused by weak or diseased kidneys.
Astoria people testify to permanent
cures. ,
Theodore Josephson, 515 Seventh
street, Astoria, Oregon, says:
"About five years ago I used Doan's
Kidney Pills and derived great bene
fit I was suffering from severe
pains across my back and my loins
and at times was unable to stoop or
straighten. My kidneys also both
ered me a great deal, as the secre
tions were generally too free in pas
sing. At last Doan's Kidney Pills
were brought to my attention and I
procured a box at Rogers' drug
store. I began using them and my
health is now excellent I take a
few doses now and then, when feel
ing any sign of backache and they
never fail to banish the trouble."
WATCHMAN ASSAULTED.
NEW YORK, March 30.-In the
Norwegian hospital, with slight
chances of recovery is Dominick Bu
gren, a Brooklyn watchman, who
was found and taken to the institu
tion after having lain from midnight
until morning in the bottom of a
sewer trench where he had been
thrown followng an attack by two
masked men who beat him and cast
him unconscious into the excavation.
Burgren's skull was fractured and his
right arm broken, and he was badly
cut on the head, neck and shoulders.
When he was found he was covered
with two bags of cement on top of
which bricks had been thrown. As
he, lost consciousness in the hospital
he told the surgeons that his assail
ants has demanded money and en
raged at their failure to find more
than some small change on his per
son, they had beaten him and had
pushed him into the sewer. That is
the last he remembered until he was
restored to consciousness in the hos
pital. He was found by his son who
had been searching for him in the
vicinity after the father's falure to
return at the usual hour in the morn
ing.-' ."' ;
