ACT QUICKLY.
Dalay Has Been Dangerous in Salisbury.
Do the right thing at the right
time.
Act quickly in time of danger.
In time of kidney danger
Doan's Kidney Pills are most ef
fective. Plenty of Salisbury evidence
of their worth.
Mrs. T. Robinson, 122 E. Kerr
St., Salisbury,1 says: ''I had
rheumatic twinges in my limbs
and back. I learned of the mer
it of Doan's Kidney Pills through
my friends and I used them.
They lived up to the claims made
for them. Whenever I notice
that my kidneys are the least
out of order or my back becomes
weak and lame, I take a few
close-; oi uoan s ivianey fins ana
ithev bring relief."

There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all
other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was sup
posed to be iacurable. For a
great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly falling to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
curable. Science has proven
Catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.,
is the only constitutional cure on
the market. It is taken internal
ly. It acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system
They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send
for circulars and testimonials
Sold by druggists, 75c. Take
Hall's Family Pills for constipa
tion. Address:

.coinmiitee of the Methodist
church on the proposed hospital

way the merits of their different

nearly all kinds." Earl C. Ross,
