W. H. Cowan Passed Away Last Thurs-
day After An Unusually Long
Lingering Illness.
The Eagle Grove Times Gazette, 0
Wright County, Iowa, of Wednesday,
March 28th, makes reference to a form-
er resident of these parts, whose family
is known by the older residents:—
The death of William H. Cowan
oceured last Thursday at his home in
this city, following a long and painful
illness of hardening of the arteries.
Owing to the Congregational church
being temporily without a pastor, fun-
eral services were held Sunday after-
noon from the Methodist church, the
sermon being by the pastor, Rev. R. D.
.Acheson, who spoke in fitting and a-
ppropriate words from 1st Kings 6:7,
,The singing was by the Congregational
choir composed R. A. Baker, Mrs,
Fannie Cotton, Mrs. Albert Peterson
and C. H. Duer. The Odd Fellows at-
tended in a body and used their impres
sive ritualistic service at the grave.
The pall bearers were G. L. Trask, J.
'W. Porter, Geo. Bonner, J. S. Paine, W.
R. Blake and•G. W: 'Baker.
Mr, Cowan had been.a member of the
local order .of. • Odd.. Fellows Golden

joined in 1884.• .He had the distinction
of having been .2 member for a longer
period than (any other member. He was
also a member of the local order of the

Taunton, Mass.--" I had pains in both
sides and when my periods came I had
to stay at home
from work and auf-
for a long time.
One day a woman
came to our house,
and asked my
mother why I was
suffering• Mother
told her that I suf-
fered every month
and she said, 'Why
don't you buy a
bottle of -Lydia E.

mother bought it and the next, month I
was so well that I worked all the month
without staying at home a day. I am
in good health now and have told lots of
girls about it."—Miss CLAItIon MORIN,

every month rather than consult a phy-

Do Not Use Harsh Purgatives—A Tonic
10 all You Need.
Not exactly sick—but not feeling
quite well. That is the way most people
feel in the spring. Easily tired, appetite
tickle, sometimes headaches, and a feel-
ing of depression. Pimples or erup-
tions may appear on the skin, or there
may be twinges of rheumatism or neur-
algia. Any of these indicate that the
blood is out of order—that the indoor
life of winter has left its mark upon
you and may easily develop into more
serious trouble.
Do not dose yourself with purga-
tives, as so many people do, in .the hope
that you can put your blood right.
Purgatives gallop through the system
and weaken instead of giving Strength.
Any doctor will tell you this is true,
What you need in spring is a tonic that
will hake new' blood and build up the
nerves, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is the
only medicine that can do this speed-
ily, safely and surely. Every dose of

Women are coming to understand that
weak, lame and aching backs from which
they suffer so much excruciating pain
and agony are due to wrong action of the
kidneys.
On the first sign of any weakness in
the back Doan's kidney Pills should be
taken.
Mrs. E. Gonshaw, 683 Manning Ave.,
Toronto, Ont., writes: "I take great
pleasure in writing you, stating the bene-
fit I have received by using Dose's Kid-
ney Pills. About three years ago I was
terribly afflicted with lame back, and
was so bad I could not even sweep the
floor. I was advised to use Doan's Kid-
ney Pills, and before I had used one box
there was a great improvement, and my
back was completely cured. I highly,
recommend 'Doan's' for lame back."
Doan's Kidney Pills are put up in an
oblong grey box, the trade -mark is s
Maple Leaf, so accept no other.

THE HEARTY LAUGH
A laugh is just like sunshine,
it freshens all the day,
It tips the peak of life tvitil hall 1;
And drives the clouds away.
The soul grows glad that hears i'1,
Ands its courage strong;
A laugh is just like sunshine,
For cheering folks along.
A laugh is just like magic,
14 lingers in the heart,
And where its melody is heard,
The ills of life depart;
And happy thoughts conte crowding
Its joyful notes to greet;,
A laugh is Just like Music
For making living sweet, --Anon.
