Correspondence of The Associated

largest and highest in Costa Rica
awakened and began new period OF
violent activity after nearly two CEN
turtles of quietness.
The previous remarkable eruption
of this volcano took place in 1929
when Costa RIGA was the poorest Of

Spain. During that year the Irazu
was in activity throughout the whole
year, emitting huge Quantities Of ash

At the foot Of this volcano lies the
historical city Of Cartago, three
times destroyed by the colossus and
as often rebuilt by her inhabitants
During the present crisis Cartago has
suffered no harm as her inhabitants
wiser through experience have re-
built the city earthquake proof: and
the emissions of the volcano have
not reached Carriage, owing to the
heavy winds prevailing and which
have blown them towards the VALLEY

school. is to superintend the work and
look after the business end of the
drive.
This is the first time in some
time that the people of Berlin have
been asked to contribute to a tag day,
and the committee asks that requests
for the purchase of tags be answered
generously. If weather permits, the
tag day will be held tomorrow, if,
however the day is not favorable to
the tag day, it will be held one week
from tomorrow. The school children
OF the Worthington school are deter
mined that no one without a tag shall
escape their watchful eyes tomorrow,
so they advise that everyone buys
early.
Thrift Stamp Campaign.
The thrift stamp campaign which
is being conducted in the grammar
schools Of Berlin, is productive of the
sale of a large number of thrift
stamps in Berlin, and the rivalry
among the schools for the greatest
sale is daily increasing. At present
the Worthington school is at the top,
having a sale of over four hundred
stamps.
Whist 2 Success.
The whist and social given by the
Kensington Grammar school,, in ST

Of the bad walking there was a large
attendance, and about $12 was real

already collected about $40 of their
share of the drive.
Berlin Has Movies.
The school children of Berlin
for the Red Cross last evening and
conducted a movie show at the home
of Mr.. Kingo. This movement to raise
money was the product Of their own
minds, and it was a pleasant sur

over $415 to Miss Bassett, chairman
of the committee.

IT'S a MISTAKE-MADE BY MANY
PARIS RESIDENTS

Many people in a miguided effort
to get rid of kidney backache, rely
on plasters, liniments and other
makeshifts. The right treatment is
kidney treatment and a remarkably
recommended kidney medicine is
Doan's Kidney Pills. Paris is no ex-
ceptiOn.
The proof is at your very door.
The following is an experience typical
OF the work of DOan's Kidney Pills
in Paris. .-
Chas. Stewart, tinsmith, Lilleston
avenue, Paris, says: Il have had
three or four attacks of lumbago in
the past few years, the first being the
worst. There was a constant, dull
ache in my back and often sharp,
cutting pains darted thorgh it. 1t
sometimes seemed as though l could
hardly endure the misery. l tried
different remedies to no avail until
got hold of Doan's Kidney Pills, pro-
curing them from the Ardery Drug
Co. The first box helped me and 1
continued taking them until cured.
Attacks since then have always been
slight and DOan's Kidney Pills have
never failed to relieve me-
