1t does seem that women have
more than a fair share of the aches
and pains that afflict humanity;
they must keep up" must attend
to duties in spite of constantly ach-

spells, bearing-down pains; they
must stoop over when to stoop
means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking
pains and many aches from kidney
ills. Kidneys cause more suffer-
ing than any other organ of the
body. Keep the kidneys we'll and

was decided that IL was time for

solved to build new church OF red
