Summer Complaint

During the hot weather of the summer
months some member of almost every
family is likely to be troubled with an
unnatural looseness of the bowels, and
it is of the greatest importance that this
be treated promptly, which can only be
done when the medicine is kept at hand.
Mrs. F, F. Scott, Scottsville, N. Y,
states, 81 first used Chamberlain's Collie
and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five
years ago. At that time had a severe
attack of summer complaint and was
suffering intense pain. One dose re-
lieved me- Other members of my fam
lily have since used it with like results. :"

TENDERNESS IN EVERY MAN
How It Made Itself Apparent in Micky MedilI of K Troop, Trainer of
 Famous Army Horse.

There Is certain amount of tender ness in the makeup of every man. It was put there for the benefit of women and children. Soldiers and saiorS are consistency herded away from the nat ural objects of this trait, and that is why pets do so we'll in squad rooms. No one could wish cur kindlier fate than to fall in with company of in. fantry, and barracks are usually clut- tered with every form of animal life, from horned tOads to monkeys. Micky Medill had known little of affection, but he loved the slim black gelding, says writer in Scribner's. He went about the training with the tenderness of a mother for child. He was sorry for the colts terror, and he, above all men, could sympathize with Kavass' fnendliness and the dread that K troop had of him. In the end the colt forgot the bitter experience of his recruit weeks, and finally Kavass of K troop became-well. Kavass of K troop. He knew every trick that kipdness and patience can teach an intelligent horse. He became the best three-mile horse in the army. He could leap five-foot hurdle without apparent effort. He won an important steer hen

the troop was stationed at Fort Meyer. Va. He attended a New York horse show and took ribbons in the charger class. He was one of the few animals that were landed In Cuba with the army of Santiago. He was wounded back of El Caney. and so became an army hero. At last he distinguished himself Internationally by carrying an important message no miles in 15 hours, during the threatened Ute up- rsing-a message that is generally conceded to have averted threatened Indian war.
 No Arab of romance was ever moro devoted master than the regenerated Micky Medill. He had found some thing that repaid affection. As the rider and trainer of Kavass, he be- came somebody in his little world. The captain perceived his talent, and he was made stable orderly, and final- ly sergeant.

Evidently aroused and warned
by the results ot the Louisville
election, the Louisville Post
prints the following significant
editorial warning 10 the Demo.
cratic party of Kentucky:
"rhere is but one hope for
Kentucky, it lies withan enlight-
ened and progressive Democracy,
free from the dominion of the
fawless saloon, of election ruilians
and Of the distributors Of pard0ns
aud patronage.
"The coming legislature should
proclaim the existence of the
party, by determining for itself
the selection of its officers aud its
committees, aud farming its Ell.
actments IN accordance with the
needs of the state rather than to
meet the political necessities of
any faction.
The first test of the Legisla.
ture will come in the choice Of
the Speaker of the House.
"Mr. Claude Thomas has the
hearty support of large part of

He Removed the
Danger Signal

II suffered a long time with
a very weak back" writes Fred
Smith, 1926 Main St. Green Bay, Wis.
"a few boxes OF Foley Kidney Pills
completely relieved me of all soreness
and pain In the back, and now l am
as strong and well as ever"
One cannot help becoming nervous
and feeling tired and worn out when
the kidneys fail TO filter and throw
out of the system the poisonous waste
matter that causes kidney troubles
and bladder ailments.
Backache is one OF Natures danger
signals that the kidneys are clogged
up and inactive. II is often follow ed
by rheumatism, annoying bladder or
urinary disorders, puffy swellings
under the eyes, swollen ankles and
painful joints.
Foley Kidney pills get right at the
source of trouble. They invigorate
the kidneys to healthy action and
when the kidneys properly perform
their functions the poisonous waste
matter Is eliminated from the system
