COMFORTING O R
Many a Pierre Household Will Find
Them so

To have the pains and aches of a
bad back ~removed-to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous urinary
disorders, is enough to make any kid
ney sufferer grateful. The following
advice of one who has suffered will
prove comforting words to hundreds
of Pierre readers:
Mrs. Abbie Bergen, 454 Dakota
avenue, Pierre, says: 81 suffered from
pains and stiffness in my back and
other symptoms of kidney trouble.
Doan's Kidney Pills rid me of every
sign of the trouble and improved my
health in general. There is nothing
better for curing backache and other
kidney ills.
Statement given Sept. 81, 1900
More than two years later Mrs.
Bergen said: II am pleased to con-
firm my former endorsement of
Doan's Kidney Pills for they did me
a great deal of good"
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Bergen has twice publicly rec
commended. Foster--Milburn Co.,

Various other exercises are taught
the pupils OF the ~liippodromc ballet
! school. but the mes described are those
most used. At first they go through
The dr.ll awkwardly and mechanically,
hut those who %persevcre finally achieve
the capacity to 20 through the most
intricate motions without apparent eff
fort.
While few professional dancers de-
pend upon dancing itself 20 keep the
muscles supple and the body and mind
1T. yet dancing OF the right sort and in
the proper conditions is in itself a
wonderful exercise. a professional
dancer, man or woman, IL usually well
and symmetrically developed. Nat
urally the leg muscles are better de-
veloped than those Of the arms. and
dancing also makes for strong and de-
pendahle lungs and heart. The Rus
sian style of dancing is particularly
good as an exercise and in its various
evolutions makes use OF nearly all the
muscles in the body.
Fol dancing says pavlowa, "as
taught to the pupils Of the public
schools Of New York and some other
American cities has been found of re-
markahlc benefit To the youngsters. 1t
may be that these dances are not so
Vigorous as some of the set exercises

have the great advantage of holding

The principal objection to dancing
as an exercise for the benefit of the
health is that II il often performed'in
poorly ventilated rooms and at hours
which nature intended for sleep. More
over. the ordinary dances OF the ball
room and dancing school are mandy
pamny and %innoCuous, from the ath-
let!c viewpoint. Bu even the poorest
sort of dancing develops n grace and
ease of movement not to bc acquired
by any other exercise. while such
dances as those of the Russian school
build up the entire physique. arms and
chest as well as legs. n bring into
play more muscles than any outdoor
sport. with the possible exception OF
swimming
