Mineral Point Women Finding Relief
At Last.
1t does seem that women have more
than fair share of the aches and pains
that afflict humanity; they must keep
up, must attend to duties in spite of
constantly aching backs. or headaches,
dizzy spells, bearing down pains; they
must stoop over, when to stoop over
means torture. They must walk and
bend and work with racking pains and
many acnes from kidney ills. Kidneys
cause more suffering than any other or
gan of the body. Keep the kidneys
well and health is easily maintained.
Read of remedy for kidneys only that
helps and cures the kidneys.
Mrs. j. Mocken, of Darlington, Wis,
says 81 suffered some from kidney
trouble for several years. ! often had
dull aching pains in the small OF my back
and left side, also experienced head
aches and dizzy spells. After doctorlng
for some time without getting relief, |
noticed that the kidney secretions were

WORTH AND CHARACTER OF
 NORWICH HISTORY MAKERS
supt. Stanton Believes Independence Day Should Be Marked by Passants, Athletic Contests and Festivals.

Tn his annual report to the West Chelsea school board Supt. J. B. Stan ton said after reference to the pageant at the 250th anniversary celebration:
 The problem of suitable celebration of the Fourth of July Is one that municipalities must solve. It may not be primarily a school problem, but a question that concerns the welfare Of our children cannot be totally ignored by school authorities. It seems to me that pageants similar to that given this year. together with athletic con tests and festivals might be substituted for some of the noise and confusion that have come to characterize this day. Such a change would tend to increase civic pride, patriotism and our appre- citation of the work of the men of the past. Norwich certainly has reason to be proud of her history, and her children should know this history which speaks so loudly of courage, Joy
 atty. self-sacrifice and devotion te duty; and Independence day ought not to be allowed to pass withoue some exercises that may help the children to appreciate the worth, the work and the character of those men who made the early history of Norwich.
