Women Rule Hospitals Now.

In the days before 1914 women were
rare in military hospitals. Today, eN-
cept for the doctors and the patients
the military hospital is almost a nun
merry.
This Is one of the chief revolutions
wrought by modern warfare. The men
who used to act as orderlies are re-
quired for the fighting line. But some
thing more than this. The women who
took their places do the work infinite
ly better.
In the Third London General hos
pital at Wandsworth you find some
thing like 500 women attending to the
needs of 1000 wounded men. This
number includes $50 trained nurses,
-137 probationers. 1913 scrubbers, 80 or.
derlies, 33 clerks, 10 mattresses, 6 mas
seurs and cooks.
The presence of women in a milf:
tary hospital has psychological value.
Not only does the wounded man re-
act to the tenderness Of a woman, but
his better nature responds to her finer
sensibilities.-London Chronicle.

WOMEN SUFFERERS
NEED SWAMP-ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer a great deal with pain
in the back, headache, loss of ambition,
nervousness and may be respondent and
irritable.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
kilmer's Swamp-Root, . physician's pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, re-
stores health to the kidneys and is just
the remedy needed to overcome such con-
ditions.
Get a medium or large bottle immedi-
ately from any drug store.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
kilmer l. Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for .
sample bottle. When writing be sure
and mention this paper. Adv.

EAT LESS AND TAKE
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Take a glass Of Salts before breakfast
If your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you.

The American men and women muse
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eiminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps Of
lead; your back hurts or the urine il
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acld
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take q tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined with
Iithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to peutraGze the acids in the urine 80 it
no longer is source of irritation, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; ca~1ot in
jure, makes a delightful efervescens
iithia-water beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake by having good kidney dush-
inc any time.
