DO 1T NOW
PointPIeasantP PROFESSIONALLY Not
Wait Until 1t Is Too Late.

The appalling death-rate from kid
ney disease is due in most cases to
the fact that the little kidney troubles
are usually neglected until they be-
come serious. The slight symptoms
give place to chronic disorders and
the sufferer goes gradually into the
grasp Of diabetes, drOpsy, Brighs's
disease, gravel or some other serious
form of kidney complaint.
If you suffer from bachache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney
secredons are irregular of passage
and unnatural in appearance, do not
delay. Help the kidneys at once.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
for kidney disorders-they cure
where others fail. Over one hundred
thousand people have recommended
them. Here's case at home:

HAVE CHARM OF SIMPLICITY
Evening Frocks, Although Elaborate
and Expensive, All Made to
Convey This Suggestion.

1t is relief to find that among the
new evening frocks there Is sugges.
ton Of simplicity. OF course. the ele.
gance OF the elaborate embroideries
and combinations OF materials is
tempting. but invariably expensive,
and therefore beyond the reach Of
those who must consider the question
OF ways and means.
Soft satin seems to be an ideal ma
terial for simple evening gowns. One
beautifully designed model relies al.
most entirely upon folds to gain a
charming effect. The bodice is. OF
course, low-necked. but it is pointed
in cut, this shape being secured by
the crossed folds.
The sleeves are OF draped folds Of
silk. Just to relieve any emphasis on
this idea, wide bretelles OF satin.
braided with narrow soutache in a
large, effective design, pass from the
irregular waist line over the shoul-
ders. The waist line is secured by a
pointed skirt line at the top. which
is ornamented with running design
OF braid, and gives Just the right
amount Of decoration for this frock.
Simplicity is certainly a safe side
on which to err. There Is always a
quiet satisfaction in the recognition
that simple gown worn with grace
and AN air" Is appropriate on any
occasion, whereas Recommendation
frequently means discomfort on the
part OF the wearer.

Cause Of "KeeI Water"

The track OF smooth water. or
keel water" stretching In the wake
Of moving vessel Is often noticed. but
little understood. The effect Is not
due to the influence of oil on surface
tension. though the stilling OF the
waves may be similar. Prof. ASH.
horn. a German investigator. has made
some experiments with bodies moving
on the water. and these show that the
gyroscopic action Of the eddies or
whirls left behind on each side Of the
vessel smooth out the smaller waves
and give the calm. disappearing track
that is so familiar. The larger and
swLfter the ship the longer and broad.
er is the smooth wake.

SOIL RoBBER IS DISCOVERED
Two English Scientists Announce They
Have Found Mlcro-organlsm
Which Destroys Bacteria.

Two English scientists, Drs. Russell
and Hutchinson, announce that they
have discovered the micro-organism
which destroys the bacteria essential
to the fertility of the soil. Other sci.
entists declare the discovery the most
important made in half a century.
Having found the culprit, the next
thing for the scientists to do will be
to discover his natural enemy" and
proceed to eliminate him from the cos.
mic scheme. The discovery seems to
have come none too soon, since, 40
cording to estimates made by reliable
experts, the soil Of the United States
has been robbed Of $1,000, 100000 worth
Of fertility in the last 30 years. The
Loss in farm values has varied in the
different states from 100000 to
$16O, 900, 900, according to the figures
given out by the census bureau. The
question Of soil robbery" is not one
for future generations to solve, but for
those Of the present day. Rich as is
the United States, 1t cannot afford to
be robbed of a billion dollars in 30
years, with the prospect that II the
robber isn't stopped he will take two
billions or more in the next 80 years.
Whatever that micro-organism dis.
covered by Russell and Hutchinson
may look like, however small he may
be, he should be chased out Of tho
country and OF the earth, writes John
A. Rowland In Chicago Tribune. A
step in this direction has already been
taken, even before the announcement
Of the discovery. II was learned some
time ago that certain bacteria were
generated by the introduction Of nj.
trates into the soil and that these bac-
teria were the fertility" of the earth.
Certain plants, such as thu legumes
we're found to be peculiarly adapted to
the culture Of these good bacteria"
That Is why alfalfa IL being heralded
as a good thing for the farmer to
plant.
But the process Of raising the fertil
" making bacteria by natural process
lS rather slow, so man decided to help
nature along. These bacteria have the
faculty Of extracting the nitrogen from
the air and introducing It into the
earth. A process has been invented
BY which the nitrogen is artincially ex.
tracted from the afr, formed into q
powder. and the powder used to fer
tilIEe the soil. This eliminates long
process Of natural fertilization. How.
ever, II some one can find q way to
prevent the fertility from being eaten
up by the micro-organism, he win
make artificial fertilization unneOos-
sary.

sPIIT-LOO DRAG FOR ROADS
costs Very Little and Make Good,
eervieeable Hlshways-lt 10 the
Poor Mans Friend.

I'VE have more than once pointed
out" says Southern Good Roads. that
where a bond issue or a heavy read
tax is impossible owing to the
strength Of the opposition d. to pow
crty, there can be nevertheless per-
fectly good earth roads built at very
small expense. The chief thing Is CO.
operation among the people Of the
community. There is no excuse for
bad road in any village or farming
section-none whatever. For the
split-log drag is the poor mans friend.
and with II any people, however poor,
however far from the day Of macad'
am, can make and enjoy good roads.
Let us take, for example, a stretch
Of bad road in the country. Say 1t Is
ten miles in length and that ten
farmers live at intervals along Its
course. It is very bad in summer and
next to impossible in winter. Those
ter farmers decide that they are not
going to put up with holes and ruts
and washouts any longer, and they
come together. They agree that they
will divide the road into ten sections
of one mile each, and every farmer Ii
tc take charge Of a mile. They select
one Of their number to act as fore
man Of all. They fall to work and
build split-log drags. These cost prac'
tically nothing. The office of public
roads, United States department of az
riculture, will gladly furnish informa'
tion as to the construction, and II pos
sible will doubtless send an expert to
give preliminary instructions.
"WEen the farmers have everything
ready, the foreman calls them out
after each rain to drag their several
sections. This is repeated until with
in an amazingly short time that miser
able old road has been transformed
into a splendid highway, smooth, well
drained, well-shaped, thing Of beauty
and a joy forever, without the expend'
iture of enough money for the farmers
to miss 1t. They receive incalcula
BILE benefit from the road, and II
serves as an object lesson to the rest
of their county, causing others to 60
and do likewise, until in the course
of no great time the road situation
In the county has been revolutionized
and the way paved for the day when
permanent stone roads will be built.
