4 WORD WITH WOMEN

Valuable Advice for Remidu Readers
Many a woman endures with noble
patience the daily misery Of back
ache, pains about the hips blue, ner-
vous spells, dizziness and urinary dis
orders, hopeless of reref because she
doesn't know what is the matter.
It lis not true that every pain In
the back or hips is trouble peculiar
to the sex. Often when the kidneys
get congested and inflamed, such
aches and pains follow.
You can tell it is kidney trouble If
the secretions are dark colored, con-
tain sediment; the passages are too
frequent or scanty. Then help the
weakened kidneys. Don't expect
them to get well alone.
Doan's Kidney Pills have won the
praise of thousands of women. They
are endorsed at home-Read this Be
midi woman's convincing statement:
Mrs. M. Sullivan, 1915 Bemidji
Bemidji, Mimi, says: 81 cannot give
Doan's Kidney Pills more praise
than their merit deserves. I have
taken them off and on as needed
during the past several years and
they have always proven a good kid
ney and backache remedy. It is a
pleasure for me to make the merit
of this remedy known.
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get

Quite a scandal was created few
mornings ago by one of our, best
known citizens beating his wife up.
Several of the neighbors claim to
have seen the incident. We with
hold the mans name as he promised
his wife that it will never happen
again and as he is now ashamed OF
his actions he should not be con-
demned too seriously by other hus-
bands. 1t was at least $3.50 in the
morning, and eye witnesses declare
that he not only beat his wife up, but
actually had fire going and the cof'
fee pot on before the surprised lady
could get to the kitchen and fully
realize how badly she had beer
beaten.-Ex. .s .
