Many women suffer untold agony and misery
because the nature of their disease is not cor
rectly understood. They have been led to be-
lieve womb trouble or female weakness of some
sort is responsible for the many ills that beset
womankind,
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy or
dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism, a drag
ging pain or dull ache in the back, weakn
or bearing down sensation. profuse or scanty
supply of urine with strong odor, frequent desire
to pass it with scalding or burning sensation,
sediment in it after standing in bottle or COM
mon glass for twenty-four hours, are signs of
kidney and bladder trouble
The above symptoms are often attributed by
the patient herself or by her physician to fe-
male weakness or womb trouble. Hence, so
many fail to obtain relief, because they are
treating not the disease itself, but a reflection
of the primary cause, which is kidney trouble.
In fact women as well as men are made mis-
cradle with kidney and bladder trouble and
both need the same remedy.

Fruit Mems Opportunity.

In the opinion of railroad men.
Washington will this year experience
the most prosperous season in the
development of its fruit resources that
1t has ever known. The following
letter from prominent official was
received in Seattle yesterday:
According to newspaper accounts
ofthe storms in the East, fruit orchards
In general have been damaged in Ken
lucky, Michigan, Tennessee and in the
Atlantic and Gulf States, which, while
very unfortunate for those districts
means golden opportunity tor the
fruit-growers in the North Pacific
states. Ii these conditions are as bad
in the East and Southeast as represent
ed, parties will come to contract for
fruit ahead, and undertake to buy al
half what the crop will bring late,

DEsULTORY fighting still continues
as Manila, but nothing decisive has
vet occurred. The Insurgents are
being driven back by the advance of
the troops, and casualties are slight,
being mainly from sharp shooters,
firing under flag Of truce, on hospital
corps, ETC., in true aboriginal style.
THERE were five Sundays in FEBRUARY
in 1924, 1852 and 1880. There will be
five in 1920, 1913 and 1876 This oc-
ours during the century once in twen-
weight years, which is solar cycle.
1t occurred in the years given, but
prior to 1924 it was forty years space
tr 1884. The same number will inter
vene from the year 1880, so the next
date for the occurrence will be 1920.
1908 is that the year 1900 is not leap
year 1t will be noticed that all the
ears IN which IL has occurred or VIII
occur the dominicial letters are d. c.,
and 1900 not being leap year uses
only one letter. This causes the letters
to spread, and it will take until 1920
before ID. C. comes in for leap year.
From that time on it will run through
two centuries without interruption
once in twenty-eight years, because
the year 1000 will be a leap year. So
it will take until the year 2l00 before
the solar system is disturbed again.
Then the forty years will be repeated.

That newspaper advertising is the

the following facts related by the edi-
tor Of the Popular Bluff, Mo-, Re
publican with regard to B. Nugent &
Bros, the owners Of the well known
big St. Louis department store. The
editor aforesaid says:
"When we were publishing paper
in 1872 at Mt. Vernon, ILL.,, on the
second floor, store was opened in
room under our office. The senior
proprietor came up stairs and con-
tracted for three columns Of space
for twelve months, with locals each
week, and $500 dodgers every week.
He remarked that it was snap TO
get into o town where other men did
not advertise. TIE firm started out
on borrowed capital. In three years
they had money enough to start
three stores, one in Sedalia and one
in st. Louis. 1t dissolved partner
ship and each partner took fsld to
himself. Byron Nugent was the
partner who made the contract, and
is now the senior member of i. NJ
gent Il Bros, the great st. Louis
house. He not only owns the store,
building and grounds, but is now
building a model little cottage home
which will cost him $4,000. We
must say some of the old mossbecks
who were in business in Nj. Vernon
before Byron Nugent ever saw tho
place are still grumbling about dull
trade and hard times.
