A mERcIlEss JUDGE

A merciless Judge is Father Time.
Before him the weak and the wanting
go to the wall Only the truth can
stand. For years the following state
ment from a Bedding resident has
withstood this sternest of all tests.
A. M. Simmons, painter, 121 K. Isa-
bell ST., says: my kidneys used to
bother me quite little and the secre-
tions contained sediment and passed
too often. / had a lame back and
when / stopped over, sharp stitch
seized me. / had rheumatic pains,
too, and tried almost every kind of
medicine without beino helped much.
Finally / used Doan's Kidney Pills
and they soon relieved me. / haven't
had hardly any trouble since" Estate
ment given January q, 1913.
In September 1916 Mr.. Simmons
said: 81 am just as glad to recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills today as
ever. When / take them the same
good results always follow"
Price soc. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that

The Shirt OF Relding

What! did ! hear you say, some
thing about a course? OH yes, let
me see, believe it is put en- by the
spirit of the children of Belding
schools. Did you ask me if l was
going? Goingi surely am. When
the children of Belding show enough
interest in their school to back a
Lyceum Course like this-why. say,
l couldn't miss it.
The people say the proceeds go for
an educational purpose, good pur-
pose, / think.
The People of Belding, certainly
don't know what their children are
made of, but they will know.
Just think what an advertisement
Of the school spirit shows! 1t is as
good as the noise we hear at foot
ball game.
Ny! won't the scholars of other
schools envy cur spirit. The first
thing we know they will have a
course similar to this. The students
of the B. H. s. are sure proud of the
school. l.. M.

OF course you have! It's the thing
to do. All of the Belding High School
students are for it. Why not you?
The Lyceum Course is both educa-
tional and entertaining. We are
never too old to learn. Even if you
do not care for the educational part
Of it, you will enjoy it.
Comel Get out and push, and keep
the ball rolling! Don't be knocker.
If you don't like it, keep still! Per-
haps the fellow next to you can APP
preciate it. You will find way, of
course you will. Follow the crowd.

Did you ever hear any music? Of
course you have, but if you have
never heard those wonderful Bell
Ringers, it is time you did. Think
of it, One hundred fifty bells of
various sizes all harmonized by the
touch Of the Dunbar boys.
Another interesting musical numb
er is the Althea Players, playing
their victims, singing and giving
readings. Both old and young like
music and they will certainly enjoy
them.
Then for that lecture which is
mostly for the wise. 1t will make

But, last and not least is Reno,

greatest in the world. He can make

Vegetables Sold By Weight Only

Under the new state law yegeta.
bles must be sold by weight IL a pur-
chaser is going to get what is coming
to him, and like wise in that way a
merchant doesn't cheat himself. Po-
tatoes for instances have ordinarily
been measured out in a certain sized
sack for a peck. and usually such
sack will measure out three or four
pounds short. Purchasers have @
right to require that the sack he
weighed to demonstrate there is full
measure. Several arrests have al
ready been made over the state for
selling potatoes short measure. There
are sixty lbs of potatoes to the bu-
shell and therefore a peck should
weigh fifteen pounds, not twelve or
thirteen pounds. The whole system Of
selling fruits and vegetables has been
corrected and only remains for the
buyers to put the regulation into ef-
feet.
