CAN'T DO THE WORK

It's too much to try to work every
day against a constant, dull back
ache, or sudden darting pain in the
small of the back. Be rid of it. Try
Doan's Kidney Pills. Your neighbors
recommend them.
Geo. E. Greenwood, Stockton, Kan
sas, says: Permanently and soundly
am cured of kidney trouble from the
use of Doan's Kidney Pills. Two
years ago I had sharp, cutting pain
in my back 1 was so bad that I had
to give up my work The kidney secre-
lions were in an awful shape, as they
We're highly colored and contained a
sediment They caused a burning ;en-
sation in passage, too I heard MY
father speak of Doan's Kidney Pills
and up to this time had been in bad
. shape After procuring some, 1 no
ticed Improvement right from the
first box About three boxes cured me
and the cure has lasted now over two
years. Doan's Kidney Pills are o. K,
and I am pleased to tell others of
their merit"

 Their real purpose in life was to be torpedoed. After landing it's missile in a vessels side, the submarine usually remained submerged for ! period, while the crew of its victim was getting off in boats; it then cams to the surface. and the men prepared to board the disabled ship and search her for valuables and deicacies particularly for information which would assist them in their cam paign, such as secret codes, sailing instructions, nnd the like. The mystery ship had been preparing for this moment and, as soon as the submarine broke water, the gun ports of the disguised merchantmen dropped, and her hitherto concealed guns began blazing away at the German. By October. 1917, these special service ships had already accounted for several submarines Admiral Sims in the Worlds Work For December.
