That Lame Back Means
Kidney Disease q
And to Relieve the Lame and Aching Back
You Must First Relieve the Kidnevs

There is no question about that
at ali-for the lame and aching
back is caused by diseased con-
dition Of the kidneys and bladder.
It is only common sense, any way
that you must cure a condition
BY removing the cause Of the con-
dition. And lame and aching back
are not by any means the only
symptoms Of arrangement of the
kidneys and bladder. There are
multitude Of well-known and un-
mistakable indications Of more or
less dangerous condition. Some Of
these are, for instance: Extreme
and unnatural lassitude and weari-
ness. nervous irritability, heart ir.
regularity, nerves on edge" sleep.
lessness and inability to secure
rest, scalding sensation and sedi-
ment in the urine, inflammation of
the bladder and passages, etc.
DeWitt's Kidney and Bladder
Pills are an exceptionally meritori,
GUS remedy for any and all atfec-
tions or diseased conditions OF
these organs. These Pills operate
directly and promptly-and their
beneficial results are at once felt.
They regulate. purify, and effec-
tually heal and restore the kid
neys, bladder and liver, to perfect
and healthy condition-even in
some Of the most advanced cases.

Teachers Must Have Certificates

- 406SoSSS . ~ va oDSNS we SsseS~S0S
The school law of this state requires
every teacher in a public school OF
any kind to have a certificate to
teach. The state superintendent of
education has recently called atten-
tior to the law, and a circular letter
calling particular attention TO this re-
quirement has recently been sent by
the high school inspector to the prin-
cipal of every state aided high school.
Notwithstanding all these, dozens of
teachers in these schools throughout
the state are yet without certificates.
Most of them are depending upon
their diplomas. A diploma does not
entitle the holder to teach; a diploma
from an accredited college gives the
holder the right to a certificate to
teach. Some of these schools are 60
ing to find themselves embarrassed,
since no money whatever will be sent
to any of these schools until every
teacher in it has valid certificate
