trouble becomes ser;ons. Some trifiing af-
lection may run into the dread diabetes,
dropsy or Brights disease before one realizes
there's anything wrong with his kidneys.
Usually the most noticeable symptoms
which first appear are far from the seat of
the trouble, and the sufferer mistakes The
nature of his ailment. Dull headaches or
nervousness, for instance, he never thinks of
as signs of diseased kidneys.
Even the aching back and sides, rheuma-
tism, pains or twitching il s7oins or limbs,
sore, infamed muscles, he may consider in
dications of some other trouble. Unnatura1ly
colored or cloudy urine, too frequent or too
scanty urination, burning sensation, are of
course readily recognized as symptoms. of
such disorders.

character of these ailments, if you suspect
your kidneys are diseased, lose no time in
beginning treatment. The best possible
remedy for you is DR.. Derby's Kidney Pills.

1T Is CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause of disfguration, physical be-
cause of pain. Think of the pleasure
of a clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, SO essen
tial to happiness and even success in
life, are often only matter of little
thoughtful care in the selection of
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do so much for
poor complexions,. red, rough hands,
and dry, thin and falling hair, and cost
so little, that it is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold everywhere, a
postal to "Cuticura," Dept. p L, Bos-
ton, will secure a liberal sample of
each, with 32-page booklet on skin
and scalp treatment.

arrears TO the extent of $17.479.7 ITO.
the largest deficit on record
The wiping out of the deficit has
been accomplished without curtailment
Of postal facilities. On the contrary.
important extensions have been made
in every branch of the service.
An im portant event of the year was
the successful organization of the
postal savings system. On January 3.
1911, repositories were opened expert
mentally at single postoffice in each
one of the As states and territories.
After careful test for four months at
these Offices the system was rapidly
extended and now comprises practical-

to establish the system also in about
10000 fourth-class Offices that do a

ment of an electric lamp consists
OF the tiny wires which are seen
inside Of the glass bulb. and Is the
light-giving part Of the lamp. 1t Is
the heating Of these wires which
produces light A watt is the
measure Of electricity just as q
bushel is the measure of coal, and
1t is said that an electric lamp uses
SO many watts of electricity, just as
stove uses 30 many bushels OF
coal, only watt is such small
unit that they are counted by the
thousand and electricity is gener-
ally measured by the kilowatt in
order to have something to meas

proved 30 that sixteen-candle-
power lamp used Just three-fourths
as much electricity, and still later
so that It used only one-half as
much.
So long as only carbon was used
in the lamps, practically the only
Improvement was in reducing the
amount Of electricity consumed,
but when other substances were
tried new possibilities in electric
lighting became apparent. Ger
tain metals were found to be much
better for electric lamp filaments,
being easier to heat, thus consum-
ing less electrical current and giving
a whittier, softer light.
The great Improvement in both
quality and quantity of light has
been achieved In the Mazda cleo
trio lamp. The light Of this lamp
is of the quality of daylight; It is
soft and white and restful to the
eyes. This lamp gives three times
as much light for the same amount
Of current as the old style carbon
lamps.
The combination Of efficiency and
economy In electric lighting Is the
result Of earnest endeavor on the
part Of those interested in the SUBJ
ject Of light and the relationship of
gobd light to good eyes. 1t has
made hygienic lighting as practical
as any other necessity.

proper light by every individual
