When Aberdeen Citizens Show 4
Way

There can be no reason why any
reader of this who sufters the tor
ture of an aching back, the annoy
ance of urinary disorders, the pans
ana dangers or kidney ills will fail
to heed the words OF d neighbor who
has round reiief. Read what an Abb
erdeen citizen says:
Mrs. c. l.. Burch, 511 E. Market
ST., Aberdeen, says: There was a
dull, heavy ache across my back. Of
ten when | attempted to straighten
up after STOPPING, sharp pains caught
me in my sides. My kidneys were
also weak. l tried different kidney
medicines without relief until ! used
Doan's Kidney Pills. After taking a
few doses, began to feel so much
better that am goin gto continue
using them. l believe they will cure
me-"
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy
get Doans Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Burch had. Foster-Milburn

Minerals Sensitive to Light.

The element selenium has long at
tracted attention because of the pecul-
lar effect light exerts on its electrical
conductivity. Scientists have now dis
covered that copper oxide has proper
ties similar to selenium, says Popular
Mechanics. Another mineral recently
put in the same class is stibnite, an
anthony mineral. Other materials
such as sulphar, shellac, parafi1n and
anthracene. a coal tar product, will
also exhibit odd conductivity effects
under the influence Of light. but to a
lesser degree.

Ho1U's your Blood?
PIMPLES AND ERUPTlONS
MEAN BAD BLOOD

a People who have impure or impover.
ished blood should be careful to take
only vegetable and temperance rem.
edy such as DR.. Pierce's Golden Medi.
cal Discovery is and has been for near.
1y SO years. Its ingredients printed on
wrapper.
The first day you start to take this
reliable medicine, impure germs and
accumulations begin to separate in the
blood and are then expelled through
the eIiminative organs.
In place of the impurities, the ar.
teries and veins gradually get fresh
vitalized blood and the action Of this
good blood on the skin, means that
pimples, boils, carbuncles, eczema,
rash. acne, and all skin blemishes will
disappear. Then you must remember
that when the blood is right, the liver
stomach, bowels and kidneys become
healthy. active and vigorous and you
will have no more trouble with indi-
Eestion. backache, headache.

pecoy Duck ouaoks and swims.

When Amos G. Vaughan of Anadar-
ko, Okla, goes duck shooting he takes
with him a set of his mechanical de-
coys and places them in the water in
front of his blind. Before doing so,
however, he winds them up, notes Pop
ular Science Monthly. When flock Of
wild ducks appears his decoys begin
to swim about and quack as IL they
were alive. The result Is that the in
ventor goes home with full bag, for
mo wild duck can resist the mechanical
wiles Of his decoy.
The decoy is composed of two parts,
bottom and top, which can be opened
for cleaning and repairing. A clock
work mechanism drives the propeller
and also the sound record of the pho
nograph. AS the mechanism is set In
action the stylus, or needle, as well as
the propeller Is operated. A cylinder
or disk Is used for the record. A con-
trolling cam renders the needle mop
| erative at certain intervals, so that the
calls or cries are sounded intermittent
ly. Who makes the Photographic rec
ord of the Quack that leads the duck to
its doom? We are baffled.
