Mr. Hunter, our Food Administrator
says, what little flour there is left in
O’Neill don’t amount to much and there
would be no sense in shipping it out and
back again as we will need it all here
and more too. It’s a good thing to have
a food administrator that uses his head
instead-of his Jaw.

When some store keeper says he sells
as cheap as John Brennan it means the
same as when two women kiss each
other. ,
A woman that thinks she can do as
well in a credit store as she can for cash
is like the ostrich that sticks its head in
the sand -and leaves the biggest end of
its body out to be shot at.
Canvas slippers and shoes are killing
the sale on leather ones. They are
cheaper and they look good and wear
better than leather shoes at a higher
price. You can buy canvas shoes heavy
enough for men or boys work shoes, or
you can get fine white or black canvas
shoes or slippers fine enough for dress.

moved to this city, where he made his
home up to the time of his death.
Deceased had been a sufferer from
cancer for a number of years, having
taken treatment for the disease in
Chicago in 1905, and secured what he
thought was a cure, but the relief
was only temporary. On April 22 he
left for Savanah, Missouri, thinking
to find relief from a specialist there,
but to no avail and he passed away in
that city on May 30th.

AN O’NEILL INTREVIEW.
Mr. Zimmerman Tells His Experience
The following brief account of an
interview with an O’Neill man over
nine years ago, and its sequel will be
l ead with keen interest by e’ ery
citizen.
H. J. Zimmerman, prop, of cream
station, Main St., O’Neill, says:
“For about two years I was in bad
shape from kidney complaint, in fact
I did not believe there was any hope
of my being cured, as I had tried so
many remedies without being helped
to any extent. My back ached con
stantly. I often had to get up at
night to pass the secretions and the
passages were attended by a scalding
sensation. Dizzy spells and pains in
my head also caused me much misery.
About four boxes of Doan’s Kidney
Pills iy|d me of all signs of kidney
complaint.” ^Statement given July
25, 1907.)
On June 20, 1916, Mr. Zimmerman
said: “The cure Doan’s Kidney Pills
gave me has proven pernrfanent. It
has been years since I have had need
of them so I never fail to recommend
them at any opportunity.”
