WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK
BODIES.
Kidney Diseases Cause Many Aches
and Ills Of 0enison People.

As one weak link weakens a chain.
SO may weak kidneys weaken the
whole body and hasten the final
breaking down..
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys and gener-
ally when their activity is lessened the
whole bOdOy suffers.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills frequently come, and there
is an ever increasing tendency toward
drOpsy, gravel or fatal Bright's dis
ease. When the kidneys fail there Is
no real help for the sufferer except
kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly on
the kidneys. Denison testimony is
proof of their effectiveness.

There has been tremendous i'm.
provement along all lines of work,
and women are beginning to see
that the desired standard once at
tanned the rest is easy. Let each
individual and group be satisfied of
ability to do perfectly anything that
is undertaken and we will go over
the top in securing the green tag.
Any woman who discontinues Red
Cross work because of red tape is a
second class worker. and if she goes
further in discouraging others is in
the same attitude toward the country
as a soldier who would try to in
fluence his comrades from following
an officers orders. There is work
laid out for women as we'll as for
men. Some men are delegated to
build ships, some to raise funds and
some other things for which they
seem fitted Women are permitted
to choose their own work and arrange
their own time; but the fact that
they are given this freedom does not
excuse them from service; while it
fiXs upon them the responsibility Of
indentifying themselves with some of
the various lines CT organized work.

Young America And The
Liberty Loan,

President Wilson has mus
tered into the army of workers
for the Third Liberty Loan the
Boy Scouts of America and the
Girl Scouts.
The work of the Boy Scouts
IN the two previous Liberty
Loan campaigns was, an inspir-
ing feature. In the second
campaign they obtained 533, 900
subscriptions for over 800, 000,-
600 worth of bonds.
The ssork of the Boy Scouts
and the Girl Scouts in this
great national effort will be not
only of great practical service
to the country, but of great ed :
ucational value TO the boys and
girls in preparing them for pa,
triotic useful citizenship. The
patriotism of the young people
of America is q guarantee of
the future; it means good citi-
zens and good Americans in
the making. They ere the citi-
zens of tomorrowsa and they are
going much-to make the world
safe for democracy when that
morrow comes.
The Boy Scouts have not only
shown their patriotism, they
have demonstrated their eff.
cheney and their value to the
country. With the Girl Scouts
also enlisted in the work they
must look to their leurels..

Important
Rulings
Oh the Food Administration
Affecting the Farmer

The Federal Food Admins
tration for Virginia has ruled
that the farmer may hold ex-
change flour in sufficient guam
tity for his own use and the use
OF his tenants and farm hands
and their families residing with
them until the next harves. is
available. The farmer may
take his wheat to the mill and
haul back any part OF ull of
the above amount at one time
instead of having to take it out
in small quantities.
Many farmers who have live.
stock are having great Difficult.
ty in securing enough food, and
when they sell their wheat to
the mill at Government price,
desire to get back the olfal from
their own wheat at the Gov
eminent price for such offal.
The Food Administration has
ruled that the mills may sell to
each farmer at Government
price all the offal from wheat
delivered by that farmer. Some
mills have refused to do this,
while others are doing it readi-
ly, and the farmer should see
to it that their mills rendered
them this service.
Where the farmer loads his
wheat in the cars for shipment
to some mill instead of deliver
ing by wagon, he should re.
ceiye the Government price at
his loading point and the mills
should pay the freight from
there to the mill. Some mills
are doing this readily, while
others insist on paying the
Government price at the mil
and making the farmer pay the
freight from his loading point.
Also farmers are not required
TO purchase substitutes to bal
ance flour from their own
wheat.
Many farmers no wheat, OIL
sell their wheat and buy their
flour instead of having il
ground in exchange. In order
to save time and Inconvenience
the Food Administration has
extended to the local admins
traitors the power to permit
farmers, especially those living
at distance, to purchase both
flour and sugar in larger guam
titles than are indi Gated in the
rules covering the general pub
lie. To find the specific amour
that you may purchase, get il
touch with your county admin
istrator.
