Rackache

In spite of the best care one takes
Of oneself, any part of the human machine
is Eable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. Their signals of
distress are easily. recognized and in
clude such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritablity, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, govt.
"The very best way to restore the
kidneys to their normal state Of health, I"
says DR.; Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, lis to
drink plenty of pure water and obtain
from your favorite pharmacy a small
amount of Anuric, which is dispensed by
almost every druggist" Anuric is mex
pensive and should be taken before meals.
You will find Anuric more potent than
lithia, dissolves uric acid as water does
sugar.

Her Own Way.

A. F. Thorn, the representative Of SO
per cent of Americas railroads be-
fore the Newlands committee, said at
a dinner:
"The railroads are not Utopian.
They know the kind of world it is, and
they don't ask impossibilities.
I'm fact, the railroads Of late years
have come to have the rather
grim outlook of the chap whose girl

YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati man tells how to dry
up a corn or caIIus so it lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops Of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens 50 it can be
lifted off, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle Of freezone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as it
Is inexpensive and is said not to irri-
tate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house.-adv.

SWEDEN.

On account Of the heavy emigra-
ton Sweden has 10000 old people
above the natural proportion. At the
close of the year 1913, the normal num-
Der of persons between the ages of
sixty-five and seventy should have
been 1928, while the actual number
was 166.333; the normal number of
those between seventy-fve and eighty
years should have been 53,273, and the
actual number was 93,29S; the normal
number Of persons between eighty and
eighty-five years should have been 3d.
597, the actual number was 81 ,552 !;
and for those above the age of eighty
tive the numbers were $500 and 25,-
O5S, respectively. 1t is not difficult to
see what this means from an econOmi
cal point of view. If those who have
emigrated from Sweden during the
past 30 years had remained at home it
stands to reason that they would have
supported the 10000 supernumerary
old people.
Swedish shipowners and underwrit-
ers are taking an expectant attitude
with regard to the German blockade
threats. Some owners have instructed
their vessels to return home or pro-
coed to the nearest safe port until
further orders. The belief is growing
that the declaration to a large extent
is a mere bluff People in Sweden,
however, do not shut their eyes to the
danger to industry of intensified sub
marine warfare, especially in the case
Of coal and grain imports.
Last fall movement among the
farmers of Sweden was started for
| collecting food for the poor of Stock
holm, and the gifts were summed up
as follows, just before Christmas :
Two hundred and eighty-nine cords of
wood, 119 tons of potatoes, 50 tons of
grain and flour, nine tons of peas, one
and half tons of cheese, almost one
ton of butter, one and a half tons of
other kinds Of food, and $500 in
cash.
King GUSTAV OF Sweden went to Den
mark February 8 on board the torpedo
cruiser Clas Uggla, escorted by torpedo
boats and an ice breaker. He was
received by King Christian and the
Danish princes and was cordially
greeted by the public. His presence
during the present situation excited
great interest.
Sweden is hard up for locomotives,
This is not so strange; but it is strange
indeed that Germany is in position
to sell old locomotives so cheap tina:
Sweden finds it to be a paying bust
ness to buy.

Long Way Around.

With his three sons a Russian who
lives ordinarily just ten hours by rail
from Petrograd is now en- route to
that capital. To get there he was
obliged by the German captors of Viii
ia to go by way of America. He esti-
mates that the ordinary ten-hour juor-
ney will cost him $4,000. And that is
just another instance of the old say
ing that the longest way round is the
shortest way through.-Houston Post.
