urge the president TO make his con-
templated western trip.
Foreign complications are still
serious, but they are well IN hand
and there is no reason why Presi.
dent Wilson should not enjoy his
long denied vacation.
Other presidents before him en-
joyed themselves. President
Roosevelt and President Taft were
almost continuously on the wing.
They travelled much and in many
directions. President Wilson has
been a stay-at-bome official.
No president since the days of
Lincoln has been confronted with
more problems of state than the
present executive. More than this
he has had domestic viclssitudes TO
contend with. He needs a rest,
and after all the country should be
given an opportunity to see the
president. The people like to look, 4,
with friendly eyes, on the head of
the nation. President Wilson has
not been west since he became pres
ident. He should take advantage
of this present diplomatic lull and
mix up with the people.
Leaders have a more selfish mo-
tive at heart. They want the pres
ident to go abroad IN the land and
launch his coming campaign. They
want him to defend and explain his
policy. President Wilson is an
orator of great potency. lie Is a
convincing speaker and his appear

A W0MAN'S BACK
The Advice of This POCanOntas WO-

Many a woman's back has many

through the small of my back. 1t

| was stiff and lame and when | got
up in the morning. l had dizzy

Publicity a Cure for immortality

Chas. A. Lee, one of tue able
editors of Minnesota, under the
above heading, says:
Publicity is one sure cure for
immortality.
Vice cannot thrive when the spot
light Is thrown on il.
The home newspaper does more
TO preserve the morals Of a commun.
ity than any other single factor.
A habitual attendant IN the courts
fears publicity more than the possl-
billty of being hnsd. Publicity is
the preventive of vice.
The home newspaper should re.
ceive the unalloyed support Of every
citizen who is anxious to uplilt the
morals of our community.
The newspaper works hama IN
hand with the churches in all
worthy efforts to make this COM
munity better place. 1t supports
all movements tending to improve
conditions.
The churches, the citizens and
the press should cooperate IN max
ing this a clean town in which TO
live, in which to bring up our chill
dren.
Every one should read the news
paper. Every one should assist IN
ridding the town of all forms of
immortality.
1t would be easy TO open a
gambling den on the principal
street Of the town were 1t not for
the publicity that would be accord
ed such an undertaking. Illicit
selling of intoxicating liquors
would be easy were it not for pub.
liclty. Other nauseous forms of
vice would thrive were it not for
fear OF publicity.
You can help make this better
place IN which to live, a far better
home for your children, by cordial
cooperation with the newspaper.
You can point out where vice exists.
This newspaper will focus public
attention toward evil surroundings.
Public sentiment will then be
aroused. No institution Is strong
enough to overcome public sent;.

When anything is wrong in the kid.
neys the symptoms are manifest from
the top Of your head to the sole OF your
feet.
The following are some Of them:
Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish brain,
drowsiness, dark rings and floating
specks before the eyes, sallow skin, bad
breath, heartburn, palpitation of the
heart, sour stomach, disorder in the
urine, backache, weak pulse, constipated
or irregular bowels, aching at the knees,
feverishness in the feet.
Prickly Ash Bite. = '. the right medi'
cine for such symptoms; pre-eminently
a kidney tonic, system cleanser and reg
ulator. It contains all the necessary
properties of successful kidney medi
cine in addition to its admirable innu,
ence in strengthening and regulating
the stomach, liver and bowels.
Prickly Ash Bitters begins right by
cleansing the bladder and bowels =
thereby driving out the impurities which
started all the trouble. After this has
been accomplished the healing and re-
storative element in the medicine will
continue the good work, building up
anew the weakened kidneys, stimulating
the liver % greater activity, purifying
the blood, and extending its restorative
influence to every part of the body. As
a result the appetite and digestion inn
prove, the eyes are brighter, the strength
returns, the hollow cheeks fill out, the
complexion loses that sallow muddy
cast, giving place to clear skin and the
ruddG glow OF health.

which the treatment is commenced.

vanced cases that would not yield to
other remedies, but it must be remem-
bered that there is stage in kidney dis
ease beyond which no power on earth
can save the patient. Take Warning!
If you suspect anything wrong with your
kidneys, begin treatment at once. 1t is
your best hope Of a cure.
