HANDICAPPED
This is the Case With Many
Morris People.

Too many Morris citizens are hand
icapped with bad back. The unceas-
ing pain causes constant misery, maxi
ing work burden and STOPPING or
lifting an impossibility. The back
aches at night, preventing refreshing
rest and in the morning is stiff and
lame. Plasters and liniments may
give relief but cannot reach the cause
To eliminate the pains and aches
you must cure the kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kid
neys and cure them permanently.
Can you doubt Morris evidence?
Charles Anderson, East Fifth ST.,
Morris, Mimi, says: II suffered
from kidney complaint for over a
year. Whenever l contracted a cold
it would settle in my kidneys and
aggrevate the trouble. Severe pains
would start in the kidneys and ra-
diate thruout my body. I was very
weak and lame and felt generally
miserable. For four or five years I
have used Doan's Kidney Pills and
they have never failed to help me
when suffering from such attacks. 1t
gives me great pleasure to recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills to other
kidney sufferers" :"

Mapping by Ocean sweIIs.

The British museum contains a very
curious chart made by natives of the
Marshall islands. A framework of
sticks supports series of diagonal
and curved rods, which represent the
swells produced by the prevailing
winds Shells fixed at intersections Of
these rods show the location Of the
island of the group Comparison with
modern charts shows that the location
Of each island with reference to its
neighbors is indicated with consider
able accuracy, but the distances are
not 80 correctly shown. This, however.
Is no great disadvantage for the native
navigators, since the constancy Of the
winds at certain seasons enables them
to steer by the swells alone.
