KIDNEY TROUBLE Nut
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one Of the
prominent life insurance companies, IN an
interview Of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so com
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing

Mr.. BOwser had been casting furtive
glances at Mrs. Bowser for a quarter
Of an hour, when he observed:
"Mrs. Bowser, you look dragged out"
"And that is the way l feel" she
YEARLY replied.
"You need day Off occasionally to
rejuvenate you. You stay at home too
much. Why don't you take a walk /;
why don't you ride out into the country
on the suburban cars? Why don't you
spend a whole day at the stores, in
stead Of racing down and back as If
you expected the house to burn down
II you did not hustler"
''It is easy enough to ask questions,
Mr.. Bowser, and I can answer all of
them in very few words-I don't
have the time"
"YOu mean the homework keeps you
at homer he querled.
"That's just what mean. We keep
a cook, but she don't find time to do
much outside her kitchen. l have to
keep track of things, and there is work
enough here for two women. 1t isn't
like chopping wood or digging in the
ditch, but it keeps a woman busy most
of her time, and when night comes she
feels dragged out"
Mr.. Bowser chewed on the above for
several minutes and then remarked !:
"Yes, of course, there are a few
things to be done, but If you had a
system about your work have an idea
that you would reduce 1t one-half."
Every woman has a SYSTEM" re-
torted Mrs. Bowser, "and she follows
II as well as she can, but the bother is
that things happen to interrupt her
system. For instance, have a system
about getting the breakfast ready. /
have to stop that system about half q
dozen times every morning to help you
get dressed. Your necktie and collars
have been left any old where and your
shoes down here when you went to
bed. You make me about half an
hours extra work most every morning,
and then you come down to your
breakfast in such n hurry that you
upset the cook. What are you going
to do with system that calls you to
answer the front-door bell about a
dozen times day, to find peddler or
a tramp at the door?"

piled Mrs. Bowser, but there was a

and put in its place, and then you will
do the sweeping act. The rugs can be
shaken out of the back windows, and
you will find a clean sheet for the bed
in that lower drawer of the dresser"
II will have 1t done in five minutes"
replied Mr.. Bowser. "What else is
there to do? Give me the program
that may understand it,"
"Well, when you get through with
the room you can sweep the stairs
down. Then you can sweep the hall,
and when you have finished that,
sweep and tidy up the sitting room.
During the time you are sweeping the
bell will probably ring about seven
times and five of the seven rings will
want to know whether you want TO buy
any squashes today? These rugs can
be taken out into the back yard and
hung on the clothes line and beaten.

ARRANGING RATION FOR cows
Three Things Should Be Borne In Mind
Protein, Little Fat and TO
Supply succulence.

The ration for the dry COW should
be formulated with three things In
mind, namely. to furnish a sufficient
amount Of protein to develop the fetus
properly and allow surplus for the
needs Of the body Of the COW; to sup
ply enough carbohydrates that the COW
may lay on little fat; and to supply
succulence. Some kind Of green feed
is very essential in the ration for the
COW at all times. II serves the pur-
pose Of maintaining the bowels In a
loose condition, which is necessary to
good digestion and assimilation Of
food.

GRUBS INJURIOUS TO STOCK
Pests Found on Backs of Cattle De.
velop Into Heel Files and Do Great
Harm to Animals.

The characteristic Jumps or SWELL
ings which may be found under the
skin on the backs of many cattle from
January to April contain grubs. If
these grubs are allowed to remain,
they will complete their growth, drop
to the ground and transform to heel
flies, which may reinfest the cattle
during the spring and summer. The
grubs weaken the cattle, cause them
TO fall off In flesh and milk, and de-
crease the value Of the hide. The beef
In the immediate vicinity of grub be-
comes Shiny and of a greenish color,
and is known to the butcher as clicked
beef" On an average the damage to
the hides is placed at one-third their
value and the loss of beef to each In
tested animal ranges from $500 to
$500.
