What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of Sc
rious illness, makes a chemical analysis
of the patients urine. He knows that un-
less the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are sure
to follow. Therefore, it is particularly
necessary to pay more attention to the
health of these important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as kidney remedy in
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root.
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real
lied, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp-Root at once from any phar-
macy. It is sold by every druggist in bot
ties of two sizes-50c and $40
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation, send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for
ample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

ELEcTRoL,ERs DRAW TRADE.
Actual Count Shows L;ehtest Side Of
Street Draws Biggest Crowd
ii Thereby Helps Trade.

At the Ames college the electrical
department has been busy the past
year tabulating statistics relating to
electric lighting, and the findings are
in many cases surprising For instance
it has been fully demonstrated that
the side OF business street that is
the best lighted draws the most trade,
the store that is the most highly illum-
mated has proven to be the most at
tractive, etc. In Denison along the
principal streets there is hardly a dis
tinction as the electroliers were placed
so as to afford the best light for all
concerned irrespective of the amount
paid or contributed by the property
owner. In one Iowa city a record of
the traffic was recently kept for a
street which had electroliers and good
lights on one side only, and it was
found that by actual count that nine
times as many people passed on the
side that had the electroliers as on
the other side without them. 1t would
seem that from financial standpoint
it would pay business man or prop
erty owner to see that his place OF
business was we'll lighted and made
attractive. The electrOliers are not
expensive and the electricity used is
very nominal. 1t has been figured
that on an average one-pole fve-light
electrolier costs about $40 or $50 a
year for lighting. We do not think
the cost will run that high in Denison,
but rather around $3.50 per month

THE BOYS ADVERTISEMENT.

Four pages of this issue of the Re-
view are devoted to The Boys de-
partment store, announcing the semi
annual or July clearing sale. Our
readers will profit by reading every
page of the advertising carefully. The
managers of the different departments
of The Boys store have contributed
to this sale and the prices and mer-
chandise offered are honest, and we
believe commendable. Each page
tells the reader specifically just what
is offered; the stereotyped phrase "a
new line of goods just in" is omit
ted and the reader knows exactly
what is being offered, and the price
he'll have to pay is in plain figures.
Everyone is familiar with the wealth
er conditions; the cold weather has re-
tarded the sale of summer merchan-
disc, and the merchant in preparing
for the fall business is OF necessity
compelled to dispose of lines purchas-
ed for the summer trade. 1t Is often
the case that much of the merchandise
is sold far below cost. That the Euro
pean war has had some effect on some
lines of business is undisputed; dyes.
for instance, have been hard to obtain
and for this reason alone many lines
of patterns have been discontinued in
manufacture. This is particularly true
of the rug industry, as we'll as OF car
pets, etc. For this reason The Boys
advertise the closing out of many pat
