Makes Anyone Feel Old

Nothing ages anyone more quickly than
weak kidneys.
1t is not alone the aching back, the stiff,
painful joints, but the evil effect of bad,
poisoned blood on the nerves, the vital
organs and the digestion.
The condition Of tie kidneys makes good
health or ill-health.
The kidneys are the filters of the blood
Active kidneys filter from the blood ev-
cry day over one ounce of poisonous waste
and pass it off dissolved in the urine.
1t the kidneys are weak or diseased, only
part of this filtering is done and the blood
is heavy with uric acid and other poison
Gus or waste matter.
instead of being nourished by the
blood, the nerves and vital organs are ir-
ritated, and the circulation, digestion, etc.,
are disturbed.
IL your back aches constantly, if your
joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect
the kidneys.
Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dull,
heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy
at times, subject to headaches and an
poysd with sharp, piercing pains that
make work an agony and rest impossible.
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recom-
mended and most widely used remedy for
weak or diseased Kidneys They act quick
"; contain no poisonous nor habit form
ing drugs and leave no bad after-affects
of any kind-just make you feel better all
over

SHORT ON BR0THERLY LOVE
Luckily William Had Grace Enough to
Remember That Henry
Was Sacred.

William was not kind to his small
brother Henry; in fact, he looked upon
him as nuisance, scourge sent from
heaven to try his spirit and spoil his
fun. Especially that day was Henry
thorn in the older boys flesh. In
his efforts to rid himself of his burden,
William resorted to all the methods
the mind of youth suggested, but in
vain. Henry continued to stick as
close, if not closer, than a brother.
William" finally said the boys
father, who had witnessed unheard,
the final paroxysm Of the unequal
struggle, you should be ashamed Of
yourself to treat your little brother in
that way! He ought to be sacred to
you"
William made no reply; but short
ly afterward, believing himself to be
free Of surveillance, he was heard to
address Henry thus: Always taggin'
after me! II you weren't sacred I'd
break your blamed face for youts-

FLY SECOND IN DANGER
ONLY TO GATL|NG GUN
Health Authorities Expect to
See Pests Permanently
Wiped Out, However.

Cleanliness is cheaper than flies and
screens are cheaper than doctor bills.
There is an economic side to the fly
citizens generally begin to appreciate
the fact the pest horde will begin to
diminish. in the opinion of health
authorities.
The reason the fly has things pretty
much its own way is because il is
small and doesn't look as though it
could cause a great amount of dam
age. Health experts say that there Is
just about one thing more dangerous
than this common. everyday insect. and
that's a gatling gun.
Bound to Exterminate Fly.
Sooner or later the public is going
to realize this just as much as the
scientists and sanitarians who have
been making study of the problem.
Then there will be no peace for the
disease-spreader. 1t will be war to
the finish and every device known to
man Will be employed to eXterminate
the fly.
The simplest and most effective method
is cleanliness. Where sanitation obtains
flies do not exist. Every year a larger
percentage of the population of cities is
devoting its energies toward graduating
the insects. The problem of removing
this menace to the health of cities con-
sists largely in educating people to the
seriousness of the menace. Efforts along
this line are bearing fruit and the health
officials of many cities already have be-
gun to contemplate the time when the
fly practically will have been extermi-
mated.
Fewer Flies Here Now.
Fewer flies have appeared in Washing
ton this spring. due to the thorough
cleaning. given the city during the sani-
tary crusade last month. A greater eff
fort mas been made by citizens generally
it is believed. to effectively screen their
houses. while undoubtedly more swatters
are being used.
Several thousand of these devices have
been given away by The Star Their
Widespread use means fewer flies as the
season progresses. in view of the fact
that one female insect destroyed means
the prevention of the development of bill
lions by the end of summer. The swatter
is playing a big part in the war on the
pests.
So great was the demand for the
swatters given away by The Star that
Its supply of thousands of the little fly
killers has been entirely exhausted
