Many Princeton People Are Afflicted
With Annoying Kidney Ills.
Are you bothered with too frequent
action of the kidneys? Are the secre-
lions highly colored-do they contain
sediment burn and scald in voiding?
These are the signs Of kidney sickness
and should not be neglected. Prince
ton people recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills. If your back aches and your
kidneys are weak you will find no bes-
ter recommended remedy.
Robt. Clark, farmer, r. F. D. No. 5,
Princeton, says: Heavy work on the
farm I think weakened my kidneys. I
got so that when I went to lift any,
thing, sharp pains went through my
back and down my legs. My kidneys
acted irregularly and I had to get up
during the night to pass the kidney
secretions. The least work made me
feel worn out and wouldn't get back
my strength for long time. Doan's
Kidney Pills helped me quickly and
soon had me well again. I haven't had
any of the trouble for years and I
certainly think Doan's Kidney Pills
gave me a permanent cure"

Geer Of the Princeton Methodist
church from the family residence, and
large number of friends were in at

WHAT BREAKS THE MERCHANT?

The merchant complained of the
credit system His idea was that the
government having laid down lines be-
tween which he must guide his bust
ness ought to "do something" to make
his accounts good.
Another hoped that the government
would force a single delivery a day and
that union delivery"
Now the merchant isn't different from
the rest of US. Most Of us shrink from
the iniative.
But the delivery question is right up
to the merchants that deliver. All they
have to do is to decide on one delivery
daily and stick to it. If the majority
decides on a union delivery and a min
ortty refuses then without doubt the
accredited agents Of the government
will step in and complete the Job.
Also with credits. In the final an
up to the creditor. He should protect
himself. He must if he is to continue.
Giving credit from the store is like
signing a note with a. relative or q
friend. The indorser takes his chances
with eyes wide open. That is the
caveat emptor of credits.
Most failures are attributed to care
less credits. But Bradstreet's explodes
that assertion. That great commercial
agency with the facts and figures be-
fore it states that but one and one-ninth
Of the business failures Of last year
were caused by unwise credits. The
figures show 1902 failures and of that
number $50 caused by bad debts.
What did cause them? Lack Of capt.
ALTO large extent. 1t is credited
With 4,I61 OF the failures hut it is Sec
oond to incompetence with 1920. In
plain words the Bradstreet's report
shows that more men fail in business
because they don't know their own BUSH
| ness than for any other, cause. Ex-
travagant living has been charged with
an excess of failures but Bradstreet's
hands out the cold figures that extrava-
gance caused but six-tenths Of pei
| cent of last years business failures
! Competition caused two and one-tentt
per cent Speculation can be blamed
for only two-iifths Of one per cent.

SAVE EVERY BUsHEL.

With great urgency the government
is insisting that the threshermen get
together and confer upon the question
of grain saving.
With them should meet the men they
thresh for. Between threshermen ami
those who employ them should be one
purpose, to save every grain possible
of the harvest.
Naturally, the man who raises the
grain and sells it will look after his own
interests. However, that isn't suffi-
cient incentive. He should have a high
er reason also--the country at war
needs every bushel of it.
This is a year when every wasted
bushel of grain is evidence of a crime.
No grain should waste in the fields
thru delay in threshing it. If MAJ
chimes are few use all the daylight We
used to thresh an hour or two after
supper in the old days of horse powers
and hand feeding. There's good three
hours after supper in these long days.
Let's use them in threshing time. The
hands will object? Pay the hands for
overtime then as the factory or the in
dustries of all kinds pays.
Above all things save all the grain.
1t is going to be hard to stack this
year with the shortage of help. Then
too, very few persons nowadays can
make a stack that will shed water.
About the only way is by long dsT.
Make it a long day. Watch the sleeves
and see that no grain goes into the
straw. The man who tends the sep
arator this year is All enlisted man i'll
the service of his country. The boys
out in front depend on him.
Save it all Mr.. Farmer and Mr..
Thresher. We need 1t.
