One to Convince the Most Skeptical Appleton City Reader
The test of time is the test that counts.
Doan’s Kidney Pills have made their reputation by effective action
The following case is typical.
Appleton City residents should be convinced.
The testimony is confirmed the proof complete.
Testimony like this cannot be ignored.
Mrs. W.E. Duncan, Appleton City, gave the following statement on September 6, 1911: “I suffered at times with severe attacks of pain through my sides and across my kidneys. I also had daily spells. I used a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills and they cured me of the attack.”
Uses Doan’s Occasionally
On October 17, 1916, Mrs. Duncan said: “It is seldom I need a kidney medicine now. However, when I do use Doan’s Kidney Pills, they never fail to give me the desired benefit.”
Price 60 cents, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy, get Doan’s Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Duncan had. Foster Milburn Co. Mfgrs., Buffalo, N.Y.

Walker Puckett Robbed
Walker Puckett, while returning home from Rich Hill Sunday night, was held up by two highwaymen. About a mile this side of Rich Hill two men signaled him, and thinking they wished to ride, he stopped his car. He was commanded to get out and while one of the men covered him with a six-shooter, the other went through his pockets. The road agents secured a nickel for this pains and seemingly were so disgusted with their booty that they returned it and ordered him to crank his Lizzie and proceed on his way, which he did.

Henry South, James Howell Jr., Phillip L. Artz and Earl M. Good for Camp Funston.
Charles C. Tillery and William J. Tell will go to Kansas City for technical training and Joseph W. Wolf will go to Columbia for the same purpose. – Osceola Democrat.

A Change in Firm Name
Troy Shoemaker, proprietor of the grocery store on North Main Street bearing his name, has sold a half interest to his brother, Jesse V. Shoemaker, of Rockville, Mo., who will remove here with his family within the next two or three weeks to make his home.
As soon as this change is made the store will revert back to its old firm name of Shoemaker Brothers, which obtained when another brother, Dowdy Shoemaker, was a partner in the business here, but who disposed of his interest several months ago to return to his farm in St. Clair County. – El Dorado Sun.

No more Street Oil Available.
Appleton City will not get any more street oil this season according to notice received last week form the government to that effect. The job of oiling our streets this year was not completed with the one car received some weeks ago. Another car was ordered immediately and the word came only last week that the order could not be filled, which means that we will not have any more street oil this season as the government has control of the transportation lines and that authority is final.

Chas. Hunt’s Big Sheep Sale
Chas. G. Hunt, one of Hudson Township’s well-known stockmen, is advertising a public sale of a fine lot of sheep to be held the 27th. He is going into the thoroughbred sheep business and is selling off all of his high grade Shropshire stock, which is as good as will be found most anywhere outside of full blood herds. While at Sedalia last week at the Fair he bought some stock for his new herd. He will also sell some cattle and a team of mules.
