Let Kodol
Digest What You Eat. Then You Can Eat What
You Like

You once could eat anything you
wanted, and your stomach would
digest it.
But now there's some things which
your stomach won't digest. Your
stomach absolutely refuses to accom-
modate you when you eat certain
food-so you have been forced by your
stomach to eat food which you de-
tested, and pass up those de1icacies
that you would have really enjoyed.
There is now q way to eat any
thing you like, if you will let
Kodol digest it.
Kodol will do this, too. It won't
talk back or command, but will 60
right ahead with its work and digest
all the food you eat. Kodol will let
you eat anything you like.
Kodol will do exactly what your
stomach does, when your stomach is
we'll and strong, and more, when it
is tired or out of order.
Kodol is composed of exactly the
same juices as found in healthy

w. c. T. u. NOTES.

Dr.. Barbour delivered a most in
structive lecture on The Prevalence
OF the Drug Habit" in which he
made some startling statements. He
said that while the use of alcohol
was on the decrease the drug habit
was on the increase, and strange to
relate it was most prevalent amongst
the very rich and the very poor,
which serves to prove the old adagc
that "Idlcness is Curse" The mid
die class of people being more am
bilious were not so much addicted to
the habit: so it behooves those who
arc not in the middle class to line
up at once and be on the safe side.
OF the different drugs cocaine was
the most dangerous, because it dcs-
troyed the mentality and one soon
became n dangerous maniac. Another
startling statement was about the
use OF drugs on infants. He had
known OF babies who were fed on
the different soothing syrups to col
lapse when it was taken away from
them. He especially condemned Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing Syrup. This
should be warning to all wothcrs
against the use OF soothing syrups
for their babies. He then took UP ttl
and coffee. when used 10 excess. and
said when ono got where they felt
thew could not possibly do without
these beverages il was time right
then to let them alone or collapse
would soon follow. He spoke of the
factory girls in large cities as being
tea ficnds and soon became nervous
wrecks. and ended by advising every
one to keep their system in a good
condition and drugs would not be
necessary.
Our next meeting will be May ~
at tho Baptist church. \ mothers

everybody welcome.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once ever three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about 500
grains OF impure matter daily, when
unhealthy some part OF this impure
matter Is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-
tom pain in the back, headache.
nervousness, hot. dry skin, rhcuma-
tism. govt. gravel. disorders OF the

To Destroy Ants.

If ants are abundant about your
premises, It is probable that there are
trees or bushes infested with plant
lice near by. The ants visit these lice
to obtain the sweet secretion which
they give off. II this be the case. the
first thing to do is to destroy the
plant lice.
Ii there arc large ant hills to be
destroyed. the best and easiest meth
cd IS to use carbon bisulphide, as fol
lows:
Thrust a crowbar or sharp stick to
depth OF eight or ten inches into
of carbon bisulphidc and quickly close
the opening with dirt. As soon as
this is odnc. throw n wet blanket over
the hill to keep down the carbon BIZ
sulphide fumes, so as to increase their
efficiency in suffocating the ants. Do
not remove the blanket for at least
an hour. II the hill is large. it will
be advisable to make two OF these
holes. ten inches or n foot apart.
If the ants are under the sidewalk.
raise the tagging. If possible, and ap-
ply to the earth beneath. as in case
of the ant. hill. except that the flag
ging is laid back in place instead of
using the wet blanket.
II ants are troublesome in the pam
try, free use OF insect powder talso
sold as "Pvrcthrum' and Persian
Insect Powder') upon the shelves and
in the run ways OF the ants will usu-
ally be cffcctual in cleaning them out.
As this powder is not poisonous to
people it may be used in abundance.

Do You Want an Irrigated Farm? If

as perfect for irrigation purposes as

at $4,000 per acre with paid up per-
petual water right: terms one third

We also visited the coal camps al

miles to the west OF said lands. and
there found a very fine quality OF coal
which is being sold to the consumer

other advantages surrounding this
tract. such as extensive grazing
lands and hundreds of fat cattle. be-
ing also travcrscd by three railroads.
