ANNA DONOHOE, County Superintendent, THAT MORNING LAMENESS. » If you are lame every morning, and suffer urinary ills, there must be a cause. Often it's weak kidneys. To strengthen the weakened kidneys and avert more serious troubles, use Doan’s Pills. You can rely on O’Neill testimony. Mrs. M. D. Murrav, O’Neill, says: “I can recommend Doan’s Pills very highly for I have used them for several years as a kidney tonic. At times I have been so lame that I couldn’t straighten up and at night I was restless and unable to sleep. Mornings I would get up feeling all tired out and miserable. I had known of Doan’s Pills doing good for others and this led me to try them. I got a box at Stout’s Drug Store and I felt much better after using them. I have used Doan’s since and they keep my kidneys in good condition. I believe Doan’s to be the best kidney remedy of all.” RHce 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs. Mur phy had. Foster-Milbum Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. (First publication March 27.) NOTICE.

ARE YOU GETTING FULL VALUE FROM YOUR CLOTHES? How often do you have your clothes cleaned and pressed? Don’t wear them until the whole world knows they ought to be cleaned and pressed, but give your merchant and his clothes a chance to shew their stuff and there will be fewer complaints about their quality. Some fellows drive their cars until they squeak before putting in any more oil, others wear their clothes until some one kids them and ask if the cleaners have gone out of business. To get the best out of your suit it should be cleaned four times a year and pressed once a month at least, if you are wearing it all the time it should be cleaned once a month or oftener as the nature of the work you are in will re quire, and pressed every week or every other week. Chicago & North Western System C. & N. W. R> C. St. P., & O. Ry. Workings of the Esch-Cummins Law AS VIEWED BY OUR PATRONS IN a recent speech made by Mr. P. R. Wigton, Commissioner of the Traffic Bureau, Chamber of Commerce, Watertown, South Dakota, before the Rotary Club of Watertown, he said, among other things, as follows: “Under the operation of that law (Esch-Cum mins) we have seen a great recovery and improve ment in railroad transportation. In the matter of service the railroads are rendering a performance heretofore unequaled, although the only fair test of this law has been during the year 1923. “During the past year the railroads have handled the greatest volume of tonnage in their history, and that in an expeditious and satisfactory manner. “There was practically no shortage of cars or equipment evident during the past heavy shipping season, a condition which has not existed since the war; there was no general embargoes at terminals due to congestion and inability to move freight; and there were no serious delays to shipments due to lack of proper functioning of the transportation machine, all of which means dollars in the pockets of shippers. “For these reasons I place adequate transpor tation ahead of cost of transportation. “To have our freight rates and passenger fares cut in half would help us little if the service were to be likewise curtailed and made uncertain and unreliable. Ideal transportation is adequate trans portation at he lowest possible cost. “Everyone is more or less familiar with the con dition of the railroads when turned back to their owners after Federal Control. They were depleted in finances, undermined morally and their operat ing equipment reduced to a point of famine. “Tonnage offered the railroads for transportation has increased so rapidly that constant additions to equipment are necessary to meet the growing de mand. “Very little equipment was added during the 26 months of Federal Control and the existing equip ment was permitted to deteriorate. “Drastic action was necessary to recover from this condition and such action was accomplished by purchasing and putting into service over 4,200 locomotives and over 200,000 new freight cars dur ing the year 1923. “That is the principal reason why we did not suffer from car shortage during the past year.” This statement by Mr. Wigton pertaining to the Transportation Act (commonly known as the Esch. Cummins Law) is so interesting that we are giving our patrons an opportunity to read it. President
