The network OF nerves in your body,
like the network of wires in burglar
alarm system, gives quick warning
when anything is going wrong inside.
Looking at it in this way pain is
a useful alarm. Now, kidney weak
ness is a dangerous thing-a condition
not to be neglected-and it is wise
to know and pay attention to the early
alarm signals of sick kidneys.
Backache is a common warning OF
congestion or Inflammation in the kid
neys. 1t may be dull. nagging pain, or
a sharp twinge when STOPPING or lift
ing There are likely to be disorders
of urination. dizziness, headaches, and
drowsy, respondent, tired feelings.
1t is ver.c hard to strengthen weak
kidneys at first, bat neglect invites
rheumatic or neuralgia attacks, gravel
dropsy, and fatal Bright's disease.
AS a special medicine for weak kid
neys Doan's Kidney Pills have been
used for years all over the civilized
world, and surely are considered reli
able. The patient can always help the
medicine immensely, however, by diet
| ing lightly. using little or no liquor
tea or coffee, keeping regular hours
and drinking lots of pure water.

SOME TERRIBLE WAR BILLS
That of the United States Govern

Point of Size.

The wars of Napoleon in 10 years
cost France 81 900, 100000, writes Wen
dell Phillips Dodge in Leslie's. Our
Civil war expenditure of the federal
government was s3,4O0,000,000, near
ly thirteen times as much a year
as Napoleon's The Franco-German
war cost France 5SO,000,000, be-
sides an added war indemnity of ST.
000,000,000. This same great war,
which lasted only 1870 days, cost Ger
many $450,000,000 for an average
fighting force of 1,250,000 men. The
other big European war of the past
half century, the Russo-Turkish war.
cost Russia s7S6,1O0,000, but she had
two years fighting for her money.
The war in the far East cost Japan
$3.50, 100000 and Russia $723,000,0O0,
not counting lost ships. Only toward
the end had either side anything like
million men in the field. Italy s
little war with Turkey cost 100000 a

A REBELLION
Food Demanded.

The human body will stand lot OF
abuse, but sometime it will surely re-
bel and demand proper food in place
of the pasty, starchy, greasy stuffs on
which it has been made sick.
Then is the time to try Grape-Nuts,
the most scientific and perfect food in
the world.
A lady of Washington says: Three
years ago 1 was very Ill with catarrh
of the stomach and was given up to
die by one doctor. I laid in bed four
months and my stomach was so weak
that l could not keep down medicine
or hardly any kind of food and was SO
weak and emaciated after four months
of this starvation that my daughter
could easily lift me from bed and put
me in my chair.
But weak as my stomach was, 1t
accepted, relished and digested Grape
Nuts without any difficulty the first
time that wonderful food was tried.
Il am now strong and in better
health than for great many years
and am gradually growing still
stronger. / rely on Grape-Nuts for
much of the nourishment that get.
The results have certainly been won
derful in my case and prove that no
stomach is so weak it will not digest
Grape-Nuts.
MY baby got fat from feeding on
| Grape-Nuts. j was afraid l would
have to stop giving the food to him.
but l guess it is a healthy fat, for his
health is just perfect" Name given

entity defeated District Attorney E. y.
Leatherwood, Republican, by about
500 votes. Leatherwood carried Davis,
