ing statement from a resident of
Burlington is true. Read it and

J. A. Harder, Davis St., Bur
lington, N. C..’ says: “I was
troubled a great deal by back
ache and dull pains through my
loins and sides. I often noticed
that the kidney secretions were
unnatural and passed entirely too
frequently. , Upon the advice of
a friend, I decided to try Doan’s
Kidney Pills, and procured a box
at the Freeman Drug Co. I had
used them but a short time be
fore my kidneys were restored
to normal condition. I heartily
recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills
toother kidney sufferers.”

Claude Allen Killed Jvdge Musie,
Witnesses Testify.

direct charge that a bullet from
the revolver of Claude Allen kill
ed Judge Thornton L. Massie
when the Allen clan shot up
I Carroll county court, was made
' on the witness stand here today
by Judge D. W. Bolen. Boian
was the first witness sworn by

' Claude Allen following the com-

An Unpleasant Discovery.
(Statesville Landmark).
Mr. J. A. Rogers, employed in
the factory of the Statesville
Safe and Table company, has
“sworn off” on chewing tobacco
and for jrood reasons. While bi
ting ( ff a chew from a popular
hraiiu of plug one day this week
he found in the plug the end of
a human finger, which is now on,
eqhibit at' the factory. The por
tion of finger is of course mash
ed fiat and dried, but is a human
finger all right, cut off between
the first and second joints. The
supposition is that an operator in
the tobacco factory had the mis
fortune to get his finger caught
in one of the plug moulds and af
ter losing the finger didn.t take
time to stop the machine to get
it out.
Some men would not go to a

Caught In a Rain.
‘Five
Douglasville, Tex. —
years ago I was caught in the
rain at the wrong time, ” writes
Edna Rutherford, of Douglas
ville, “and from that time, was
taken with dumb chills and fe
vers, and suffered more than I
can tell. I tried everything that
I thought would help, and ha^^
four doctors, but got no releif. I
took Cardui, the woman’s toni«.
Now, I feel better than in many
months. ’ ’ Cardui does one thing
and does it well. That’s the se
cret of its 50 years of success.
Try Cardui.
