Backache 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 the kidneys makes good
health or ill-heaIth.
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
If 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.
IF your back aches constantly. if your
joints are stiff. lame and painful, suspect
the kidneys.
Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dun.
heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy
at times, subject to headaches and an
noyed with sharp, piercing pains thaS
make work an agony and rest impossible.
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recona-
mended and most widely used remedy for
weak or diseased kidneys They act quick
ly; contain no poisonous nor habit-forIn-
ing drugs and leave no bad after-affects
of any kind-just make you feel better all
over.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dam
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty Of the hair, the following spe-
cia1 treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ONT
ment into the parting with a bit Of
soft flannel held over the end OF the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place a light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.

A Good Suoaesticn-

The suggestion of Prof. J. H Miller,
of the extension department of the
agricultural college, that the Kansas
state school fund be loaned out TO the
farmers at a low rate of interest is
receiving much favorable comment in
Saliua. A number CT the bust
ness men of Salina declared that it
was the most sensible suggestion that
they had heard in recent times, and
that they believed THAI should it be
enacted into law, that it would mean
a wonderful impetus to the develop
ment of the state as well as a boon to
the individual farmers themselves.
