In the DAYS News

Viscount Reading, who is now in
this country on specitl mission for
the British Government, is the first
Jew ever to hold the position of Lord
Chief Justice of England. His career
has been most remarkable one. AS
Sir Rufus Isaac, which was the name
he bore before his elevation to the
peerage, he was for years one Of the
leading barristers of England. In his
early career he devoted himself to
business, and became member of the
London stock exchange. He, however,
quickly saw where his abilities lay,
and he forsook the stock exchange for
the bar. In 1904 hit he entered parlia-
ment. He became Solicitor General in
1910 and three years late was appoint
ed Lord Chief Justice. Because of his
business sagacity and amazing know
ledge of finance he has twice been
chosen to come over here to confer
with our Government and financiers
in regard to financing the war for
England.

A WORD WITH WOMEN
Valuable Advice for Maysville Readers.

Many a woman endures with noble
patience the daily misery Of backache,
pains about the hips, blue, nervous
spells, dizziness and kidney disorders,
HOPELESS Of relief because she doesn't
know what Is the matter.
1t is not true that every pain In the
back or hips is trouble peculiar to
the SEX" Otter when the kidneys get
congested and infamed, such aches
and pains follow.
Then help the weakened kidneys.
Don't expect them to get well alone.
Doan's' Kidney Pills have won the
praise Of thousands Of women. They
are endorsed-Read this Maysville wo-
mans convicing statement:
Miss Dora Edgington, Wood St.,
Maysvilles, says: II have used Deans
Kidney Pills and from the results re-
ceived, l have every reason to recon-
mend them. At times, my kidneys have
become weak and have been irregular
in action. My back has ached, too and
has been very weak and lame across
my kidneys. When ever have used
Doan's Kidney Pills for this trouble
they have never failed to relieve the
complaint in short time. l gladly ad-
wise anyone to get box Of Doan's Kid
ney Pills at Chanslor's Drug Store, II
roubled in that way"
Miss Edgington is only one Of many
Maysville people who have gratefully
endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. II your
back aches-if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney rem
edy-ask distinctly for DOAN'S KID
NEY PILLS, the same that Miss Edig-
ington had-the remedy backed BY
home testimony Coo all stores. Eos
