DON’T BE MISLED
Newark Citizens Should Head and
Heed This Advice
Don’t e.^eriment with something
new and untried.
Use a tested kidney remedy.
Kidney trouble is dangerous and
often fata!.
Begin with Doan’s Kidney Pills.
Used in Kidney troubles 50 years.
Recommended here and everywhere.
The following statement forms con
vincing proof of their merit.
Mrs. W. B. Fryor, Broad st., Bates
ville, Ark., says: “My back was very
weak and I could hardly stoop or life,
it hurt me so. My head ached and I
often had dizzy spells. Bladder trou
ble annoyed me too. Since I have used
Doan's Kidney Pills, my back has
been stronger and my kidneys have
acted as they should.”
Price 60c at all deaers. Don’t sim
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that

HOUSTON SAYS LIVESTOCK

(Continued from front page)
Lhings being equal, tend to
bring about an increase.
“But with the destruction of
live stock in Europe and the
great demands from there for
meats and fats, with conse

from this country, it is cleai
that the supply will not be ade

and for those of the nations
with which we are associated i
in the war.
“The mere statement tha
the population increased in this
country—the gain in the If
years from 1908 to 1917 being
12,000,000—with an absolute
decrease in the livestock for
the same period, would suffi
