Bailey’s Retirement.
The Dallas News, long an op
ponent of Joe Bailey, contem
k^. plates the coming retirement of
r Texas’ junior senator with grat
■ • ification, but without a single
feeling of animosity or exulta
tion. It says: “The News has
believed that the retirement of
Senator Bailey was demanded by
the best interests of the state
and nation. Now that this is as
sured, there can be no occasion
to say aught more against him.
• Let us now have peace in this
! state At least let us strive to
lift our political problems above
-dust of. personal politics,
| where we can the better see how
to solve them. * * The chief
|: gratification which the News
H gets out of the retirement of
» ■ Senator Bailey is inspired by the
hope that it will enable us to
conduct ourselves with the dig
Kand gravity that our tasks
emand.”

wonderful ability and great pow

wealth too rapidly. His abandon

largely from his vanity and his
refusal to follow where he could

GOOD WORK.
Done Daily In Newport. Many
Newport Citizens Tell
Of It.
Nearly every reader has heard
of Doan’s Kidney. Pills. Their
good work in Newport still com
tinues, and our citizens are con
stantly adding endorsement by
public testimony. No better
proof of merit can be had than

neighbors. Read this case:
R. L. Pennington, Second and
Pine Sts., Newport, Ark., says:
“Doan’s Kidney Pills have been
so beneficial to me that I have
not the slightest hesitation in ad
vising their use to other kidney
sufferers, especially to railroad
men. The jarring I received
while working on the engine and
the constant, cramped position
in which I was obliged to be
most of the time, no doubt weak
ened my kidneys. The expos
ure to bad weather and different
change in temperature also
helped to bring on my complaint.
When I saw Doan’s Kidney Pills
advertised by local people, I de
cided to try them and got a sup
ply at utton’s Drug Store. I
have used three boxes up to this
time and they have certainly
done me a world of good, reliev
ing the backache and correcting
the other kidney disorders.”

A Great Advantage
to Working Men
J. A. Maple, 125 S. 7th St.,
Steubenville, 0., says: ‘Tor
years I suffered from weak kid
neys and a severe bladder trou
ble. I learned of Foley Kidney
Pills and their wonderful cures
so I began taking them and sure
enough I had as good results as
any I heard about. My back
i ache left me and to one of my
i business, expressman, that
i alone is a great advantage. My
j kidneys acted free and normal,
and that saved me a lot of mis
ery. It is now a pleasure to
work where it used to be a mis
ery. Foley Kidney Pills have
cured me and have my highest
praise.”—W. E. BEVENS.
