DON'T RISK NEGLECT

Don't neglect a constant back
ache, sharp, darting pains or uri-
nary disorders. The danger of
dropsy or Bright's disease is too
serious to ignore. Use Doan's
Kidney Pills as have your friends
and neighbors. A Barre case:
A. w. Donaghy, blacksmith, 6
Merchant street, Barre, says:
81 have used Doan's Kidney
Pills whenever l have felt any
touch of lameness in my back
and when the kidney secretions
have been off color. Sometimes
| have had to pass the kidney
secretions too often. l have al
ways found that Doan's Kidney
Pills are the only medicine that
helps me-"
Price soc. at all dealers Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mr.. Don.

Irwin S. Cobb has written an article
on the movies for the July Woman's
Home Companion, in which he says:
"bIany of the writer's who went into
the new field extensively were in the
preliminary negotiations butchered to
make producers holiday, and when
they beheld, with horror stricken ewes,
the completed product upon the screen,
they realized that, thanks to the scena
rio sharp, and the director and the east
nothing recognizable remained of the
mishandled and mangled and mutilated
children of their brain. Finally, in any
number of cases, came the uncongenial
and unpleasant and expensive task of
endeavoring to induce, or to force, the
producing company to make proper ac-
countings at proper intervals. Mind you.
am not saying that the fault for poor
presentation of authors notions was al
ways to be put upon the producers. Some
writers appeared TO suffer from the delu-
sion that almost any idea was good
enough for the film; that neither thought
nor work was required of them in order
to produce theme and continuity. But,
on the other hand, writers who went into
the game seriously and with high ideals,
with an honest desire to build praise
worthy stories suitable for moving pic
ture presentation, have suffered most
by reason of incompetence in
the studio as well as by double dealings
and stiffness in the bookkeeping depart
ments and in the executive offices"

Stop Eating So Muchl

In an interview for the July American
Magazine, an authority on the food
question says;
"'Stop asking a lot of guests to din.
ner every few DAYS, and making an un.
necessary and unholy show of a lot Of
food. Parties of this sort are going to
come mighty close TO disloyalty in the
days ahead. The society woman who
gives a tea or dinner to a couple of hun
bred guests is committing a national
crime. There is no occasion on which IL
is necessary to entertain more than ten
or a dozen persons. One can get all the
wit and brillianee in that number that
anyone needs.
Don't just do these things yourself
create a public opinion against them.
Preach and live the gospel Of the clean
plate. Everyone in America ought to be
forced to eat everything on his table In
that event a good many OF US would die
Of indigestion. and most of the rest
would learn that an altogether unnec-
esssry amount Of food is being cooked.
The articles 81 food that Europe
needs most are wheat. beans and pork.
As much a. possible, stop eating these.
Use corn instead Of wheat. There are
plenty Of substitutes for pork and beans
and the other staples Europe is crying
for.ss
