REMARKABLE CURE OF
RHEUMATISM.
Mr. Michael Doran, employed by the
’American Bridge Co., Youngstown, O.,
writes: “I want to say for the benefit
of my fellowmen that I have been suf
fering for a long time with acute
Rheumatism In my knees. I had tried
every kind of remedy, including an
expensive course of electrical treat
ment, but all of no avail. One day at
the suggestion of my druggist I took
a bottle of Paracampli to try. The
effect of its use was magical. I got
relief at once, and after using three
or four bottles I believe I am perma
nently cured. It is certainly a won
derful remedy, and upon my advice
ft number of friends have tried Para
eaniph, and the verdict is unanimous
thnt it will do all that is claimed for
it” Don’t suffer from Rheumatism,
Lumbago, Sore and Stiff Joints. Use
Paracampli. It has cured others and
will cure you. Your druggist will sell
it to you on a guarantee of satisfaction
or money refunded. No cure, no pay.
Get a bottle to-day. Trial size 25c;
family sizes 60c and $1.00. If you have
never tried Paracampli we will send you
a trial size free. Write to-day. w Tho

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto
ries in the Kansas City St^r.
Conan Doyle's detective sto
ries, with the marvelous Sher-!
lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this J
fact, the publisher of Collier’s |
Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final series of
the great detective’s adventures, j
Repeated refusals were followed
by increased inducements, and i
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write j
tnirceen scones ior $40,000, or
about 6C cents a word. The en
tire „oi respondence was by ca
ble.
The amount paid by Collier’s is
the largest ever paid foi* such
work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in
book form. By special arrange
ment with Collier’s these famous
stories are being printed in the
Kansas City Star, one story each
week, beginning in the daily j
edition of Saturday, February 11,
and in the weekly Wednesday, *
February 15.
None of the present popular
features of the Star will be cut j
down or omitted to make room
for this remarkable set of stories.
Practically the contents of a $1.50 j
book will be added to the con
tents of the Star in three months
without any increase of the sub
scription price, 10 cents a week
for the daily Star, (morning,
evening and Sunday, 13 complete
papers a week) and 25 cents a
year for the weekly Star.

WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
IS DANGEROUS.
'
I
Neglect of the First Warning Symp
toms is the Prime Cause of so
Many Deaths from the Dreaded
Bright’s Disease.
It is Easily Curable in the Early Stages.
Kidney diseases are so destructive to
human life because they do not manifest
alarming symptoms until the constitu
tion is seriously weakened and the
strength exhausted. Then, too often,
the remedies employed by many physi
cians are of indifferent or doubtful value,
and the patient rapidly sinks under the
disease. The wisest course is to apply a
reliable kidney and liver remedy on the
first appearance of the symptoms. A
little uneasiness in the small of the back,
digestive troubles, bowel irregularities
and disorder in the urinary organs are
matters of small moment in the estima
tion of strong men and women, yet they
have a serious meaning. They show
clearly that the kidneys hre suffering
and need help, which must be forth
coming at once to prevent serious, per
haps fatal consequences. A few doses
of Prickly Ash Bitters at this time would
prove of incalculable value in restoring
the weakened organs to health. An
investment of one dollar in a bottle of
Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is
yet in the early stage will save hundreds
of dollars in doctor’s bills, besides the
suffering that would surely follow should
the disease be allowed to fasten itself in
the body. The excellent curative power
of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to
the first stages of kidney disease. It is
equally efficacious in severe or chronic
cases. Physicians have used it as a last
resort, in cases that defied their best
efforts, with the most brilliant results,
and it has shown its superiority over the
many so-called kidney cures, now being
loudly advertised, in instances innu
merable.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure 3 iu red on the front label.
Sold at Drug Stores, $1.00 per bottle.
