 The people of Europe are not as badly off as many would have us be- lieve,' he said. While there are dis dressing conditions in places, one de- tects symptoms of spelling through Americas s lavish assistance.
 Europe needs red blood rather than relief, and it would not be unaccepta- ble if gratitude was shown to America for what she has done. Europe will take all We have to give, and certain ly we should give something. But we should ask for an accounting on every thing we give and insist that the stat esmen of Europe get down to busi- ness if they want to continue receiv- ing our help. There is too much talk and not enough work in Europe.

MORE LIGHT AND TRUTH
Backache and Pain In Back Do Not
Indicate Kidney Trouble.

Thousands of people, believing there
is something wrong with their kidneys,
go on suffering year after year with
backache and other symptoms Of rheu-
matism and doctor themselves with
wrong treatments such as kidney pills,
salts, etc., when the real and true cause
underlying their condition is a rheu-
matte condition of the blood.
1t is surprising how many people are
dosing themselves with kidney medi-
cines when, as matter of fact, their
kidneys are in perfect normal condi-
ton.
The kidneys have but few if any
nerves capable Of conveying a sense
of pain. Therefore, sufferers from back
ache should realize that pains and aches
in the region of the back or backache
rarely if ever indicate kidney trouble.
In the vast majority of such cases these
symptoms denote rheumatic condition
Of the blood. And any treatment de-
signed to cure backache by acting
through the kidneys alone must fail
because it can not possibly reach and
remove the cause which is in the blood.
The mission of Abbott Bros. com
pound is to purify the blood, cleanse
the system and remove the cause of
backache and all forms of rheumatism.
This explains its wonderful success in
SO many deep Seated and apparently
hopeless cases where other medicines
had failed

The mission of Abbott Bros. Com.

give rise to rheumatism, purify the
blood, tone the liver, cleanse the sys-

kidney and blood disorders and remove
the cause of rheumatism. This ex-
plains its wonderful success In so many
deep-seated and apparently incurable
cases where other medicines had failed.
Measured by the wonderful results
reported by thankful users of Abbott
Bros. Compound, the price of same,
$1.25 bottle or six bottles for $3.50
might be increased to several times as
much and still not be anywhere near
what it is actually worth. Remember

Contains No Salicylic Acid-No Nor

Abbott Bros Compound began its
career of usefulness in the early so s
as a physician s prescription. For
thirty four years this blood cleansing
treatment has, according to the CERT
fed testimony of its thankful users,
been curing men, women and young
children for whom there seemed no
earthly help. And today it is famous
throughout the entire country for its
wonderful success in the treatment of
rheumatic diseases. No Doctors pre-

care and expert skill than is the max

day more and more sufferers in all walks
of life take this time proven treatment
and every day adds more names to the
long list of recoveries. Tt surely does
not cost much to give it a fair and
thorough trial. And your own drug
gist can supply you with it.
