Changes in Shawnee with the first

who moved in last fall to harvest

it is in a commercial way, will be
found doing business at the old stand

Nothing Can Undermine It In Shaw-
nee.
People are sometimes slow to recog-
nize true merit, and they cannot be
blamed, for so many have been hum-
bugged In the past The experience
of hundreds of Shawnee residents, ex-
pressed publicly through newspapers
and other sources, places Doan's
Kidney Pills on' a firm foundation
here.
D. Kraft Lincoln Ave., Shawnee,
Okla., says: "For the past five years
I have had more or less trouble from
my kidneys. A few months ago the
symptoms became more pronounced.
There was soreness across my kid
neys and the kidney secretions were
scanty and painful In passage. Dull,
heavy aches in my loins kept me In
misery. I finally procured a box of
Doan's Kidney Pills from the Crescent
Drug Co. and began using them. They
not only rid me of kidney trouble
but toned up my entire system."
(Statement given May 23, 1908.-
On July 19, 1910, Dr. Kraft said-
"The statement I gave for publication
Confirmed Proof
In 1908 was correct. Doan's Kidney
Pills relieved me of kidney trouble
and lumbago after other remedies had
failed. I have been In good health
since."

cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo,

There is nothing Pharisaical about
our declaration that the people of
Shawnee should rejoice and be ex-
ceeding glad that unlike many cities
In this broad land, there is here no
gaunt-faced want stalking about to
dim the enjoyment of the glad Christ-
mas time. It would not help otters
If this city were filled with suffer-
ing and despair, but it is a comfort
to know that with all the short
crops and bad conditions of the pres
ent year there is no shortage of ne-
cessities or occasion to cut off the
little luxuries of the holidays.
Having observed more or less
Great indignation, you have prob-
ably learned that it Is composed
chiefly of Talk.
