IN NEWPORT
The Evidence Is Supplied By Lo
cal Testimony.
If the reader wants stronger ;
proof than the following state- j
ment and experience of a resi- j
dent of Newport, what can it be? j
W. L. Hall, farmer, R. F. D,
No. 2, Box 97, Newport, Ark.,
says: “I have never lost an op
portunity during the past six
years to praise Doan’s Kidney
Pills, for what they have done
for me as well as others of my
family. They have made such
complete cures of kidney trouble
that it has not been necessary
for us to take them or any other
kidney medicine during the past
few years. One of the family
took Doan’s Kidney Pills for
trouble with the kidney secre
tions, together with weak and
painful back. They cured her
and later I used them for a simi
lar complaint. Their action in
my case was just as satisfactory
and I was quickly cured. Doan’s
Kidney Pills were procured at [
Dutton’s Drug Store, (now Wal
ker’s Pharmacy), and have al
ways been so beneficial that I
willingly confirm our former en
dorsement-”

CONSTIPATION.
!ts Cause and How to Cure it
Eat too much,
Stomach feels bloated,
All out of sorts,
Don’t feel like work to-day. Guess
I’ve another case of biliousness.
“Take anything?”
“Yes, some pills, but no results; sup
pose I’m getting ironclad. Sometimes ?.
j double the dose, then they physic me sc
1 hard I’m too weak to work. Think I’L
have to try something new.”
“Ever try Prickly Ash Bitters?”
“No; I’ve heard a good deal about it.
j but never tried it.”
I “Well, you’ll be pleased with the re
j suits.”
The purgative action of Prickly Asr
j Bitters not only removes hard impac
j tions, gas and impurities, but it strength
j ens the muscular action of the bowels
! which causes them to move regularly.
Prickly Ash Bitters is a bowel tonic
and regulator in the truest sense. Ii
promotes daily evacuations, establishes
healthy movements and is the best
known remedy for disordered digestion,
flatulence and a constipated liabit.
D. M. Blnckwelder, of Litchfield, 111., says t
the Litchfield News: ‘‘I am perfectly willing, it
fact glud to testify to toe value of Prickly Ash
Bitters as a medicine for the kidneys, stomach
and bowels. I have used it whenever I needec
anything of the kind for the last fifteen yeai
and it has always given satisfaction."

VIONKEYS PROVE
MEDICAL THEORY
Open Air Treatment By Gentry
Brothers Saves Simians
From Ravages of
White Plague.
In the evolution of medicine
and surgery the masters of these
professions have resorted to the
use of the lower animals in mak
ing tests by which the human
family profits- The rabbit and
the guinea pig are the lower ani
mals in which the heart action is
closest to that of the human be
ing.
The monkey tribe, however, is
the family in which the action
of the lungs is closest to that of
man. Monkeys are particularly
subject to pulmonary tuberculo
us, or in plain language, con
sumption. Among monkeys the
deadly white plague reaps its toll
almost without resistance.
Several years ago the medical
world evolved the theory that
-)pen air was the surest prevent
ative for tuberculosis of the
lungs. This scientific disclosure
was quickly caught up by the
Gentry Brothers, proprietors
and owners of Gentry Brothers’
All New Feature Shows. To
them it meant much.
Conducting a trained animal
exhibition, that has arisen to the
apex of fame, Gentry Brothers
used monkeys. The loss among
the simians from tuberculosis
was aDDalling. When the fresh
air treatment was expounded
Gentry Brothers decided upon
drastic moves. They decreed
that monkeys for all time should
live in the open air
Following this decision came a
most remarkable demon
of how nature provides for her
own. Nature soon provided the
simians, destined to open air in
a northern winter, with heavier
coats of hair. These coats were
heavier than any ever before
seen on monkeys. The monkeys
were left in open air all the year,
their only protection being a dry
goods box. Since then Gentry
Brothers have lost but two mon
keys, whereas twenty-five was
the usual toll of the plague in
winter.
The monkeys, strangely
enough, welcome their new mode
of living. All summer they are
left in unconfined spaces. In
winter they are offered only
enough protection to break the
wintry winds- The result is that
the simians are acclimated, there
is no tuberculosis among them,
and the only troupe of year
round open air monkeys in the
world are with Gentry Brothers
All New Feature Shows which
will be in this city Saturday,
September 20. (Adv.)

BEAUTIFUL DARING
WESTERN GIRLS
As Much At Home On a Horse
As a City Girl In a Trol
ley Car.
In no part of the habitable
globe are there better lady riders
than can be found in the west.
A girl must be able to ride if she
wants to visit her neighbors of
ten. And how some of these
young creatures can manage a
horse! What pictures of beauty,
daring and health they are as
they come dashing along at full
speed, playing games, chasing
each other or racing just for fun
Indeed, horseback riding is a
common and easy pastime to a
“wild western girl1' just as trol
ley riding is to a city girl.
The Western girl goes every
where on horseback. She can i
loin a set of equine quadrilles or
Virginia reel and gallop twenty
niles on an errand without feel

Yes, the Western girl can cer

them in the Hippodrome Races;

pleasures and enjoyment of the
competition by their silvery

There are many things worth

the lovely wild Western girl with
sparkling eyes and rosy cheeks
who flashed by you on the back
