LAME EVERY MORNING
A Bad Back is Always Worse in the

are Finding Relief

A back that aches all day and causes
discomfort at night is usually worse
in the morning. Makes you feel as If
you hadn't slept at all.
Can't cure bad back until you
cure the kidneys. Doan's Kidney
Pills cure sick kidneys-make you feel
better, work better, rest better and
sleep better.
Permanent cures in Wausau prove
the merit of Doan's.
Mrs. J. c. Smith, IOT jefferson
Street, WauSaG, Wis, says: Il was
afflicted with kidney trouble and /
suffered intensely from pain in the
small of my back. On getting up in
the morning, felt very lame and
was subject TO headaches, dizzy spells
and tired, languid feeling. The
passages of the kidney secretions were
too frequent and showed that my
Kidneys were disordered. Deans Kid

The TyrannIcaf Husband.


The tyrannical husband may be the
truest of lovers, but II he always in
sists that the compromise shall be on
the blue, his wife will shed many
tears in secret. This good man seems
to think that four walls and a roof
are enough of sphere to satisfy a
sensible woman, and he is amazed be-
yond words If his wife ever desires
anything outside them. Should she
intimate wish to go away for a
visit OF week or a month, he raises
objections without number Instinc-
lively the masculine mind is quick to
see the other side of any question pre-
sented, and can scarcely avoid raising
objections whenever a new course is
proposed. Men do not mean TO be
wet blankets, yet wet blankets they
are In five cases out Of six. When
the despotic husband wraps the wet
blanket OF his opposition around the
wishes OF a docile wife, there is an
end OF the matter She will yield her
own position rather than have scene
or a fuss.-Woman's Home Compan-
