began the use of Doon's Kidney
Pills my back was so stiff that I
could hardly betid. Mornings
I when I arose I would have to go
about in a stooped position. I
could only straighten by degrees.
, I had sharp, cutting pains across
i my kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills
'removed my trouble. I am very
thankful that I began their use
(when I did. I have recommended
I this remedy to several of my
friends and they have obtained
! good results. There is no doubt
j iu my mind as to the merits of
| Doan's Kidney Pills and I hope
that my statement will be the
\ means of bringing relief to other
kidney sufferers." (Statement
given June 23, 1908.)
NO TROl'BLE SINCE.
On .lamiary 4, 1912 Mr. Sanders
I said: " f have had no occasion to

very glad to again testify to their
merits and confirm my former
words of praise for them.''

The show opens with a panto-
mimic spectacle entitled "Cleopa-
tra." Over 1,()00 people appear
in the production and a large bal-
let is presented, trained by Otto-
kar Bartik, of the Metropolitan
Opera House. The costufnes,
properties and impediments are
historically correct, and the scenic
investiture carries the audience
back to Alexandria. Over 2,000
costumes are utilized and the re-
sources of the circus in horses,
camels elephants and other ani-
mals, proper to the story, find
ample expaession in the most elab-
orate production ever given under
canvas.
All day Monday tickets may be
bought at the Altus Drug Store at
exactly the same prices charged at
the show grounds.
New Meat Market.

Fox and a well known former cit-
izen of Altus, who has been at
Oklahoma City for some time
past, has returned and opened a
meat market in the building on
Hudson street just north of the
Citizens State Bank. Mr. Fox is
an experienced butcher, knows
every detail of his business, and
has many friends in Altus who will
be glad to welcome him back. He
always has sold good meat to his
customers, and his business deal-
ings have always been fair, square
jand straightforward, and it is con-
ceded that he will secure a liberal
