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.-' ."' ; DONE BY DEED Victor Lindbeck to Ida Lind beck, bill sale household goods and chattels $ 500 Charles Hull to Fred Behnke, 80 acres section 31-7-9 W... 5 Fred Behnke and wife to Chas. .
