Mrs. W. H. McCall, 318 E. Tonha-

think just as highly of Doati's Kid-
ney Pills now as I did in 1908, when
I gave a testimonial recommending
them. I willingly confirm that state-
ment I was annoyed by sharp
twinges in the small of my back
whenever I stooped or attempted to
lift any heavy object. 1 suffered a
great deal from bearing-down pains
through my kidneys and also had
trouble from the kidney secretions
I procured a box of Doan'- Kidney
Pills from Mayfield's Drug Store ami
had only taken a few doses before I
began to get relief. I continued their
use about a month and by the end of
that time, my condition had improv
ed in every way."

Annual Report of the Register of
Deeds.
Although the year 1911 was a very
hard one, and there was a general fall-
ing off in business conditions of from
25 per cent to 40 per cent in the gen
eral business done, yet the office of
register of deeds has proven more
than self sustaining.
In the special session of the legis
lature of 1910. which was called to
revise the fees and salary bill, there
was some changes made in this oi-
fice. One change is in regard to re-
leasing chattel mortgages, the law
requiring a charge of 20 cents for re
leasing chattels, while under the old
law there was no charge. Another
change was that of putting the regis-
ter on a salary instead of on a com-
mission basis The latter change, at
K-ast. was a good one for the taxpay-
ers of the county as will be seen by
a comparison of the amounts collect
ed and the amounts turned in to the
' "iint'y during the years of 1910 and
1911. In 1910 under the commission
ba-i- or system there was collected
$4,540.50, and of this amount $3,270.25
was retained by the register of deeds
for himself and his helpers: in 1911
there was collected $4,165.40, all of
which was turned in to the county;
and of this amount there was paid to
the register and his helpers $3,523.21
It will be thus seen that while there
was $37.s 10 less collected in 1911 th ti
there was in 1910 yet there was
$471.94 more turned in to the county,
or a difference of $847.04 in favor of
the county in the two years
