A HEAVY BURDEN
A Bad Back Makes Life Miserable
For Many Aberdeen People

A bad back is a heavy burden.
A burden at night when bedtime
comes,
Just as bothersome in the morning.
Ever try Doan's Kidney Pills for it?
Know they are for kidney back
ache-and for other kidney ills?
If you don't, some Aberdeen people
do.
Read a case of it.:
Mrs. Louis w. Marque, 315 N. E
street, Aberdeen, says: "One. or my
family was trouble by a dull, heavy
ache across the small of the BACK.
Sometimes the pains were so severe
that no work could be done until the
spell passed off. The kidney secre-
tons were very irregular in passage
and caused terrible burning sensa-
ton. Doan's Kidney Pills soon brought
relief and since then there has been
very little kidney trouble"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doans Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Marque recommends. Foster

Ants That Sew.
A writer in the Visitor tells of par
ty of German naturalists recently re-
turned from Ceylon, who have reported
the existence Of species Of ant that
has been observed in the act Of sewing
two leaves together for the purpose OF
forming nest. This report confirms
the observations of the English nat
uralist, Ridley. made in 1890. They
saw a row of the insects pulling the
edges Of leaves together. then others
trimming and fitting the edges and
finally the completion Of the work by
still other ants. which fastened the
edges with silky thread yielded by
larvae of the same species, which the
workers carried in their mandibles. 1t
is said that the sewing ants pass
the thread-giving larvae like shuttles
through holes in the edges Of the
leaves.

MANY SCRATCHES
But NO CASUALTIES

A couple of high school students
appeared in their class rooms on
Wednesday morning resembling re-
turned warriors from the European
war, with black eyes and bandages
much in evidence. An investigation
disclosed the fact that the boys were
not fresh from the trenches but were
heroes of class scrap which had
been staged the night before. 1t is
stated that a number of the mem
bers of the Junior class were tipped
off that the Seniors were to observe
Wednesday as their annual sneak
day and were going to the high
school Tuesday evening to leave evil
dence of their self-appointed vaca-
ton. Quickly mastering their male
forces the Juniors laid siege to the
upper classmen. Ink wells and
other handy fighting apparatus were
pressed into service and few of
the belligerents carried away con-
spicuous evidence of the fray.
