kidney medicine that cures perma-

right here in Wa-Keeney.
Here is the testimony of one who
used Doan's Kidney Pills years ago,
and now states that the cure was
lasting.
A. johnson, of Wa-Keeney, Kans-,
says: Il often had to arise at night
to pass the kidney SecretionS and i
was also bothered by a pain in my
back. About a year i was afflicted in
that way and the medicine / tried
seemed to have no effect. Finally i
procured box of Doan'S Kidney Pills
at GibSon's Drug Store and their use
cured me. l consider this prepare
ton the best one to be had for kidney
complaint" Statement given April
Is, 1907.)
THE CURE LASTED.
On July Z, 1910, Mr. johnson said:

he did not desire to reign and that If
by chance he survived his father he
would waive his rights to succession
in favor of his eldest SON."
Although boy at that time, En-
peror William knew all the details of
his fathers affiiction and never got
over the fear of dying from the same
trouble Early in life he went in very
keenly for outdoor exercise to build
up his health and continued to do so
up to the time of his illness. His ath-
letic prowess. however, was badly
hampered by his congenitally crippled
left arm. which has been withered

only recently that American aviatOrS

first successful flights Of Santos-Du-

three men started ia to build mono
planes Their idea was to initiate the
shape of the outStrct"hed wings Of the
soaring bird. The first efforts in this
line made no provision for keeping the
monOplane on an even keel 1t was
only a year or two later that the mono
plane men adopted the simple wing

other troubles cropped up, 1t was

Among the immediate problems fac

rons are called stabilizing fins.
On an aeroplane there are two other
rudders. The vertical rudder is the
one that stands upright in the rear of
about every pattern of aeroplane and
steers from side to side like the rud
der on ship. The horizontal rudder
is one that lies fat and turns the nose
of the aeroplane UP or down.
