ARE YOUR KIDNEYS WELT
Many Pleasantville People Know the
Importance Of Healthy Kidneys.

The kidneys filter the blood; they
work night and day. Well kidneys re-
move impurities; weak kidneys allow
impurities to multiply. No kidney i'll
should be neglected. There is posi-
Bile danger in delay. If you have back
ache or urinary troubles, if you are
nervous, dizzy or worn out, begin
treating your kidneys at once. Use a
proven kidney remedy. None sndors-
ed like Doan's Kidney Pills. Recon-
mended by thousands. Proved by At
lantic City testimony.

ALCOHOL AND THE MAN.

Why should the sale and manufac-
ture of alcoholic liquor be prohibited
in u own country and in all the
countries of the world? The answer,
say DR.. Carolyn Geisel, in her lecture
on alcohol and the Mar Himself" is
found In the brain and body Of man.
She shows a chart containing the pho
tographs of two brain cells-one from
the brain of a normal man who had
worked all his life for the good of
humanity and bequeathed his body
after death to the dissecting table;
the other from the brain of an alco-
holic, a victim of the liquor traffic,
who had gone to Paris and died in dis
grace, and whose body was taken to
the ~clinique, where the bodies of
criminals, paupers and detectives are
used for dissection. The picture of
the two brain cells shows the normal
with its multitude of fine fibers, all
elastic for the life vibrations like a
beautiful plume of feathers, and the
abnormal, a mere skeleton of what it
one was, distorted, stunted and thick
ened, all the finest filaments gone
and what is left too stiff to feel except
dimly any call of the living spirit.
Why doesn't a man stop drinking
when he knows it is injuring him?
This is answered by a chart contain
ing a picture of one of the nerve GEN.
ters of the brain. 1t, too, is feathery
In general form and all its fronds are
In curving or bending lines, as IL wav-
ing or moving, except n That is a
short little straight line coming direct
from the nerve center in a lateral d.
rection. It is the %inhibitory v
the one that says no" All the 9TH
ers are nerves of action, of impulse;
this alone is the curb, the check, the
brake. Alcohol attacks this nerve,
softens, weakens and destroys it. In
the brain of an alcoholic it is absolute
ly gone; how can the mar say MOI"
The will power which he had in his
normal state is poisoned and wound
ed, and it hardens until it dies. He is
utterly dependent on outside control
for safety.
