A WOMAP BACK
The Advice of This Plattsmouth
Woman is of Certain Value.
Many a woman's back has many
aches and pains.
Ofttimes 'tis the kidneys' fault.
That's why Doan's Kidney Tills
are so effective.
Many Plattsmouth women know
this.
Ask your neighbor!
Read what one has to say about
it:
Mrs. Hettie Cummings, Chicago
Ave., Plattsmouth. says: "I suffered
so severely from my back at times,
I could hardly get about. When I
got down, I had to take hold of
something before I could straighten.
Sharp pains often caught me across
my kidneys and for a minute I
couldn't move, the pains were so
severe. I couldn't rest well, my
back ached so badly. I tried differ
ent remedies, but nothing did me
any good until I began using Doan's
Kidney rills. Three boxes over
came that awful misery in my back
and made me feel like a different
person.
Price 60c. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills the same
that Mrs. Cummings had. Foster

EVERYTHING COMING FINE
From Friday's Daily.
The writer met C. A. Rawls last
evening and observed a more-than-busy
appearance about his move
ments. Inquiring how the homecom

progressing we learned that thing?
are moving along fine. Mr. Rawls
had a bundle of letters, one of which
is being sent to each ex-service man
in the county personal invitations
to attend the gala-da event in this
city next Saturday. Of course, as
is always the case, there will be a
few soldiers within the confines of
the county whose addresses are not
in the hands of the mailing commit
tee, and who therefore will not re
ceive one of these letters, but that
is no sign they will not be as wel
come as the rest. The affair is be
ing arranged for all ex-service men
and women and it is hoped every
one will participate in the good time
provided for them.
