STOP THAT ACHE

Don't worry and complain about
a bad back. Get rid of that pain and
lameness! Use Doan's Kidney Pills
Many Lexington people have used
them and know how effective they
ar. Here's a Lexington case.
J. B. Floyd, prop. grocery, T..
Main St., says: II was bothered a
great deal with my kidneys two years
ago. At that time my back gave me
a lot of trouble and it ached good
and hard. My bladder seemed the
worse source of complaint. There
was too frequent desire to pass the
kidney secretions and I had to get up
at night. The secretions were highly
colored and contained sediment.
A friend advised me to use Doan's
Kidney Pills and I did so. In a
short time got fine relief. l kept
on taking Doan's and after had used
ceyeral boxes. I felt so well, l d1dn'1

Physicians Urge Public to be
Extremely Careful
With Diet.

The 3-year-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. E. Erickson, 821 Cherry street, died
last Saturday evening of the epidemic
ally appearing disease which has been
thought to be summer complaint"
This death followed hat of Mr.. and
Mrs. Erickson's 4~-year-old daughter,
Geraldine, two weeks before. Two
other children in the same family who
have also been severely i'll are now
said to be we'll.
Meanwhile discussion is going on
among local physicians as to the true
nature and characterization of the dis
ease which has claimed a rather ex-
traordinary number of victims in this
city during the last few weeks, and
from which many children and some
adults are still suffering. Some of the
best informed students of .children's
diseases are quite confident that the
ailment which has been so alarmingly
prevalent here is not that which is
commonly called summer COM
plant" but is in reality ileo-colitis
which belongs to the group of diseases
known as dysentery.
Symptoms Somewhat Similar.
1t appears that in it's early stages
this form of dysentery is often similar
to summer complaint" Inc the
symptoms, if not studied consistently
and thoroughly, are sometimes mis-
taken for those of diarrhoea while as
a matter of fact diarrhoea is in itself
one of the symptoms of %ileo-colitis.
It seems that there are two distinct
types of ileo-colitis; one is amoebic

new DRILL HAUL
AND CHEMISTRY
BUILDING AT U
100 Soldiers Dig Trench for
the Foundation of Drill
Hall in Eight Hours.

What has been called the most up
to-date building to be found on the
university campus is under construc-
ton at the present time and the work
Is making rapid progress. This build
ing Is the chemistry building on the
south side of the campus east Of the
teachers college building. 81
The chemistry building is a three
story building, 60, by 100 feet. The
with cut stone and the entire interior
of this splendid edifce is finished in
hard wood.
In addition to the three stories a
full-sized basement with cemented
floor has been constructed. This will
undoubtedly be used for stock and
storage room; in addition to this the
basement will contain all the equip
ment necessary to the study of chem
istry.
The first. floor of the building will
consist. of ten class rooms, while on
the second floor may be found seven
class rooms. On the third and top
floor of this building there will be five
class rooms and one large lecture or
assembly room.
The first, second and third floors
are OF maple finish. Each floor has a
front and rear stairway Of iron, There
Is n stairway reinforced with ter
razzo steps.
Work on this building is rapidly
progressing and it is expected that it
will be ready for occupancy the first
OF the year. When completed this
will be a structure Of beauty as we'll
as Of great utility.
Drill Hall Well Begun.
With the old-fashioned motto,
well begun is half DONE" to encour-
age them, 100 of the university SOL
diers dug the trench for the founda-
ton of the new drill hall in eight
hours. With this as a sart, the work
men assure the completion Of the
building soone than at first expect
| ed.
The drill hall is erected, as the
name tells. for the drilling of the SOL
diers training at the ''U." This build
ing is placed near the gymnasium and
Is about 81 by 181 feet. One large
room makes up the entire hall with
the exception Of an office addition of
about 81 by 70 feet.
This structure will be one story
n the exterior is of pressed brick
with cut stone trimming. In addition
to the large drill room and four Of
ices there will be a locker room suf-
ficiently large to hold about 400 lock-
eIs. 1LeTe are tnFee entrances to
this building and the roof is of
trussed construction, having no posts
to support it.
With the aid of the soldiers, work.
men expect to complete the drill hall
within 60 days. Frederick w. Keith
Of Bismarck drew the plans for both
splendid buildings. One Of the most
prominent instructors was heard to
make the following statement con-
corning the new buildings. We have
at last gotten the start on the build
ing which we have so badly needed.
These are the first ireproof and mod
ern buildings at h university and we
nope before very long to be able TO
boast Of a campus full OF such struc-
lures"
The work on both buildings Is done
by h Dakota Construction company
Of this city.
