over the openings and with a horse
hauled log, bees and honey to his home
in the Coleville district He set the log
up on end, peeled off the bark and APP
piled coat of paint to keep out the
water and cut small opening for the
bees to come and go. AT present the bees
are working industriously and the novel
hive has been inspected by a number
of persons who have made a study of
bees.

AL WRONG
The Mistake Is Made by Many Mid

Look for the cause of backache
To be cured you must know the cause.
If it's weak kidneys you must set the
kidneys working right.
A Middlebury resident tells you how.
Mrs ii. A. Clark. r. f ID. No A. Mid
dlebury, says; zone of my family suf
fered for some time from backache, dizzy
spells and rheumatic twinges. AT
night. sleep was almost impossible and
colds were sure to make the suffering
worse. Rheumatic twinges affected the
patients arm SO badly at times that it
couldn't be raised above the head. The
first few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills,
procured at Sheldon's Drug Store,
brought great relief. Two boxes re-
moved he pains in the back and the pa
tient could sleep much better"
