Which is Better?Try an Experiment or Profit by a Klogstree Citizen's Experience. Something new is an experiment. Must be proved to be as represented. The statement of a manufacturer is not convincing proof of merit. But the endorsement of friend3 is. Now supposing you had a bad back, A lame, weak, or aching one, Would you experiment on it? You will read of many so-called cures. Endorsed by strangers from faraway places. It's different when the endorsement comes from home. Easy to prove local testimony. Read this Kingstree case: Mrs N J Lynch, Main St, Kingstree, says: "I had dull pains in my back and there were other signs that my kidneys were out of order. When I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills, I began using them. They relieved the pains in my back and benefited me in every way." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that Mrs Lynch had. Foster-Milburn Co, Props, Buffalo, N Y. Japan Arraigns Germany. The Japanese Government has sent to Great Britain and the United States messages of sympathy on the loss of life in the Lusitania disaster. The Japanese press bitterly arraigns Germany for the sinking of the passenger ship. The Asahi Shimbun characterizes it as a "massacre of innocents," certain to excite the "righteous indignation of Americans." Other papers declare that the time has come to "remove forever the German menace."
