For months North Platte reader havo seen tho constant xpresslon of prniso for Doau's Kidney Pills, and read about he good work they havo dono In this locality.

My back would become lamo and there would bo a steady acho in It. When I tried to stralgthen up after sitting down, a sharp pain would catch mo. I know my kidneys were tho cause of It, for at such times they acted too often, especially at night, Doan's Kidney Pills havo always relieved any digns of such trouble, putting my kldnoys In a good condition.

Foster-Mllburu Co.. Mfgrs.. Buffalo, N. Y. The Sutherland Courier has tho fol lowing to say cf the potash plant now being erected at that place: Right now the Republic Chemical Works are excavating for one of tho largest building in Western Nebras ka. This building when completed will be 90x285 feet. The foundation of this building will require 1500 loads of gravel, which by tho way is right cn the property owned by this com pany and will not cost so much to handle. Tho side tracks are in and freight is being unloaded from them. Before permisson would be granted for these tracks it was necessary for Mr. Por ter to prove to the powers that be in Washington that he had potash In paying quantities and that tho gov-o-nment would benefit by having side tracks put in. The government sent a man here for the purpose and he pro nounced it good. Two surveying crews have been b isy surveying tho route for tho pipe Une which will carry the potash from the laker; north of ns to the plant and it Is expected that the laying of the pipe will commence in about two weeks . For this work something over 81.- OOn.OOd worth of tools is already on Che ground. Also $125,000 worth of material is on the way which will be used in putting up the building. Mr. D. S. McCalman, formerly con sulting engineer for tho U. P., has charge of the construction work, and Is one of tho busiest men in these parts. Ho is a pleasant gentleman to meet and his record for work in the past is a guarantee that the Republic Chemical Works knew what it was doing when placing him in charge.
