WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE
WEAK BODIES
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the
Common Aches and Ills of
Staunton People


AS one weak link weakens chain,
so weak kidneys weaken the whole
body and hasten the final breaking
down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
y Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come, and there is an
ever-increasing tendency towards.
fatal Bright's disease. There is no
real help for the sufferer except kid
ney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys and strike at the root of
the trouble. Staunton cures are the
proof.
Mrs. George W. Eubank, 22O S,
st. Clair ST., Staunton, Va, says:
For six months I was troubled by
backache and could not attend to my
houswork My kidneys were also
weak and was annoyed by diff
Guilty with the kidney secretions. The
contents of one box of Doan's Kid
ney Pills, procured at Thomas Hogs
heads Drug Store, entirely relieved
me and I have not had a return at
tack of kidney trouble"
For sale by all dealers. Price so

THINGS ARE LOOKING UP

Despite mutterings of discomfort,
grumbling which is always heard in
certain quarters no matter what the
true conditions are, things in Staun-
ton just now are looking up. The
present week has seen contracts let
for two fine buildings to cost many
thousands of dollars and to adorn
one of our principal streets, while a
number of other structures are in
course of erection and still others
are being contemplated.
Inquiry will, reveal that there
never was time in Staunton when
contractors were as busy at this sea-
son of the year as they are at pres
emit. Carpenters, bricklayers, plum
bers, roofers and the other trades al
lied with the building industry have
plenty of work on hand; not old
contracts which are being finished
up, but new work which will keep
them busy well into the winter. This
Is indicative of progress and augurs
well for the continued prosperity of
the city.
One of the greatest improvements
about Staunton in the last twelve
months, and one which admirably
illustrates the truth of the old pro-
verb-"What appear to be calami-
ties are often sources of fortune
is the altered appearance of johnson
street, arisen from the ashes. Where
a year ago there were number of
old shacks, relics of decadent past,
with only here and there what might
be called building, and where sub
seQuently was blackened waste of
charred brick and steel and timber,
now stand several fine substantial
structures, while well above ground

THE LAW or ArRoPHv

If a man does not use a particu-
ar muscle it ceases to be nourished,
and it withers away. 1t is law
Of nature, which is another way of
saying it is a manifestation of God.
And the law is equally true OF our
mental and spiritual natures. When
looked at in. this way, the force of
the text, ''To him that hath shall
be given and from him who hath not
shall be taken even that which he
hath" is apparent. If we take the
word in the ordinary sense, this
seems rather unfair treatment. Or
80 it always seemed to us. 1t looks
like hitting a fellow when he is
down. But when we think mo-
ment, we must realize that it ex-
presses a universal law which every
one can use to his advantage if he so
wills. 1t simply means that we must
have growth or we will have death,
and it is entirely in our power to de-
eide which it shall be. The differ
ence between life and death is infin-
lite. The difference between life
and more abundant life is finite. If
we have any spiritual life at all (and
who has not) and cherish it. it will
grow. 1t behooves us, therefore, to
take our spiritual life and use it and
thus nourish it. If we do not it will
surely die-there will be taken
away even what we have.
And whether we grow, or decay,
is not an accident. Shall we de-
termine to grow, or shall we permit
ourselves to decay?
Shall we use our spiritual life?
