On the republican state senatorial ticket there were a large number written in and also for different state office4.

Backache is only a simple thing at first; But if you find 'tis from the kid neys ; That serious kidney troubles may follow; That dropsy or Bright's disease may be the fatal end You will be glad to know the fol lowing experience. 'Tis the statement of a Plattsmouth citizen. Wm. Hassler, proprietor of black smith shop, Fifth and Oak streets. says: "I know the straining work I have had to do most of my life as a blacksmith caused my back to weak en. Many times I have been down shoeing a horse when a sharp stitch took me through my kidneys and hurt severely. My back was stiff and lame at times. I started to use Doan's Pills and they soon corrected the trouble and made my back strong again. About two boxes from Wey- rich & Hadraba's drug store was all I had to use. I can work every day now and give Doan's the credit for my good condition. I always keep Doan's on hand and take them oc casionally to keep my kidneys well and they never fail."
