It's Your Kidneys.
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your Troubles. A Spring dale sCitixen Shows How
 to Cure Them.

Many people never suspect their kidneys. If suffering from lame, weak or aching back they think that 1t is only mus cular weakness; when urinary trouble sets in they think 1t will soon correct itself. And so il is with all the other symptoms of kidney disorders. That IS just where the danger lies. You must cure these troubles or they may lead to diabetes or Brig hts disease. The best remedy to use IS Doan's Kidney Pills. It cures all ills which are caused by weak or diseased kidneys. Springdale people testify to permanent cures.
 J. II Fletcher, living in the Northwestern part of Springdale, Ark, says: "I can most heartily endorse Doan's Kidney Pills, knowing we'll their merit. Back ache clnng to me for quite time and was unable to get any thing that would give me relief. My head also aehed a great deal, which l firmly believe was due to some disorder of my kidneys. Having Doan's Kidney Pills brought to my notice, I procured a box at H. A. Daily's drug store. l had only taken few doses when 1 felt better. Before long the headache and backache dis appeared entirely. It has now been some time since I have had occasion to use Doan's Kidney Pills and l am certain that my cure IS a permanent one"

The possession Of money is to Ameri-
must, Of course grant that in COM
mercial pre-eminence the Americans
lead the world. The national wealth
Of the United States is greater than
that of Great Britain, Germany and
France united. But the Prussians ac-
ccmplished most in the world while
they were poor, and in recent times
the greatest triumphs in the world have
been won by the poorest of all nations
the japanese. Lately the Americans
have shown that they wish to take
their place in the prosecution of a
world policy, under the Impression that
the possession of money insures every
KIND of success. But while the private
individual may accomplish many things
by means of wealth, it is not possible
for a state to take a place at the head
of the nations merely because it is the
richest of them ALL"
This admiration for wealth. this
trust in wealth, is the cause of endless
dishonesty in the United States, de-
clares this writer. AS he says:
AN Unsuitable thirst for the yellow
gold is the capital failing of Americans.
Fraud flourishes in the United States
as nowhere else in the world. Nowhere
Is there such a center of attraction for
foreign rascality of every sort 1t
occasions great anxiety for the moral
health of the nation to see that the
motto of every citizen is comprised in
"a fol.
But the faint goes further than this.
The policy of the American govern
ment is directed by nothing but COM
mercal motive. the increase of the ma
tional wealth. the Strengthening of
trade relations, and the distribution of
exports to the widest possible compass.
This and not any diffusion of beneficial
influences is the end of American for
eign policy.
+. A large part Of this savage criticism
is but American desert. The COM
mercial spirit is dominant in our poll
( tics at least perhaps in our religion
and history is made up of politics and
religion. We are 10 be judged from
across the sea by our actions and it is
to be confessed that the general ap-
pearance from an outside point of
view justifes much that the German
I is saving
/ 1t is me danger ahead of the repub-
lie 1t has been the rock wherein
other republics have been wrecked and
other empires have foundered 1t might
be we'll to listen without resentment to
what the nefghbors are saying.

AS TINE NEIGsBORs SEE US.

Critical analysis by even our best
friends is usually unpalatable. The
frank taking to pieces of character by
our enemies generally affords reason
for deeper hatred no matter how well
we have justified their structures.
Along this line the conclusions Of an
analytical German writer who by the
way is writing much more truth than
poetry, is not likely to meet American
approval and is likely to stir American
bile.
He finds the real weakness Of Amer
lea, however, and unsparingly makes
the most of it; indeed makes more
than exists. But he is more right than
wrong, seeing as he does the outside
of American life and American desire
which is the politioians-and little to1
the heart Of the real America-which 1.
the common people-when he puts
American supremacy entirely upon {
commercial basis.

taught the lesson that the thoughts q
