My sight was often blurred and 1 would become dizzy. 1 was feeling awfully bad when I be- gan using Doan's Kidney Pills. Two boxes of Doan's soon made me feel like myself agaln. A few of Doan's Kidney Pills now and then keeps my back strong and my kidneys in good working order.

ed out, our homes are scared with sorrow, and our industries and finances and institutions have been melted down in the crucible Of the world war. Come to our aid! Come in your thousands, but come at once to Europe.
 Let the soldiers of France and Great Britain have at their side, month by month in increasing numbers, the sons and grandSons of the men who fought with Grant and Sheridan and with Jackson and Lee. {"
 ''The German armles released from the Eastern front by the de- feat of Russia, are steadily tra- versing Germany as fast as their deteriorated railways can carry them. They are on their way to the West, hundreds of thousands of men with thousands of guns. The greatest storm of all is gath ering." So he sees the situation and describes it.
 The time for idle and seditious talk is passed. The day for action is at hand. Let no man say that we were not forced into this war, or that if we had minded our own business we should not have been attacked nor involved in the war. No man competent to comprehend the situation can now deny or doubt that Germany intended af- ter conquoring Europe to attack and conquer us.
 Though the patient years of our honest attempt to keep the peace of nations the record of the Ger man autocracy is damnable.
 With a fanatical faith in the destinyof German kultur, it's sub marines in defiance of the law and the concepts of humanity have blown up neutral vessels, and covered the waves with dead and dying men, women and little children alike; it has set the torch of the incendiary to our factories, our work shops, our ships and our wharves; laid the bomb of the assassin in our munition plants and in the holds of our ships; sought to corrupt our manhood with selfish dream of peace when there is nopeace; destroyed our commerce and murderously butchered our citizens on the high seas; sought to terrorize the world with it's hellish policy of frightfuInesS; violated every can on of international decency, set at naught every solemn treaty and every precept of information al law, and plunged the world in to the maddest orgy of blood, rapine and murder which history records.

COLLEGE WOMAN APPEALS
 FOR RED CROSS WORKERS

A Norwich women who is a devoted Red Cross worker and a Mt. Holyoke college classmate of Miss Louise Aver. secretary of the Red Cross chapter Of Olympia, Wash, has received one of the letters which Miss Aver has writ ten to members of her college class urging every woman to do Red Cross work
 The appeal is of such universal ap- plication that the Norwich worker wants it passed along as follows:
 Where are they? Here are some reasons which some women use as pretext not to work at Red Cross:
 T went to headquarters and offered to knit and was told to go homs and learn on a washcloth."
 T went there to sew and one woman told me one way and one told me an other>I never went again"
 Nobody has asked me to go, so of course I am not going to put myself forward
 T went there and stood around and nobody paid any attention to me, so left"
 T went. but wasn't given any thing to do I specially liked" T like to talk when I work" T like to work with certain people. I don't care about the others so much. so when ! was changed to other work l just staid away" And so our boys are to suffer and 1 die on the battlefield because some 1 tired, overworked woman has spoken hasty word or has wounded your 1 sensitive feelings with neglect! Of course, when an officer speaks sharply to a soldier, he drops his gun and goes proudly home! | inc spirits and doing nothing to help win | the war, till the chivalrous Germans overrun this country. Oh, women of America, you are not lazy, nor selfish, nor cruel You just don't think" But the time has come when, igor the salvation of your souls ss well as your bodies. you must think Even if you cont yet realize that should We lose this war. unspeakablt l crimes will be committed upon you anG your children, can you let our boy: go into this awful maelstrom lacking any comfort or necessity that you art able to furnish them?
 How will you live with yourselves if you shall hear some time that al American boy died because there wer, not enough surgical dressings for hi wounds? Or, because of the lack 0 warm, hand-knit socks, his poor fee became sore and diseased in tn, trenches and had to be amputated?
 That your house is in order, you clothes all mended, will not comfor you then.
 In wars of olden time, women coult sit idly at home and helplessly endur, their sorrows.
 But the American woman is enlisted for the duration of the war, and thi is a great opportunity.
 The great organization of the Re- Cross makes it possible for you t, just as truly help to win this war al if you shouldered gun. Enlist. i you have not. and, having enlisted don't desert.
