WHY SUFFER. 500

Why suffer from a bad back,
from sharp, shooting twinges, head
aches, dizziness and distressing
urinary ills? Scotland Neck peo-
lie recommend Doan's Kidney Pills
Could you ask for stronger proof
Of merit?
Allen Allsbrook, carpenter, Scot

years ago [ started using Doan's
Kidney Pills. [ was troubled
lot with nagging painss across my
kidneys. I had severe headaches
was troubled with nervousness
and often was so dizzy [ could
hardly stand. Nothing seemed to
do me any good until I began TAX
ing Doan's Kidney Pills A few
doses Of Doan's was all that was
required to relieve me. Contin-
ued use made me feel a great deal
better.''

BACK To SCHOOL IS
SLOGAN Of THE WEEK
Campaign in Progress to Bring
Children Back to Their Glasses

Washington, Jan. 15.-~Twenty- six
states have announced their intention
to wage an intensive campaign in the
interest of the Back to-the- School"
movement inaugurated for the pur-
pose of bringing back into the schools
of the country the thousands of boys
and girls who have been drawn into
industry
The District of Column bia has out
lined, and begun to put into opera
ton, an active schedule of operation.
Letters have been sent to the heads
Of all government departments call
ing attention to the fact that many
hundreds Of children are now en-
ployed in the various offices under
the poverty permit regulation now
operative in the district.
In New York city, as part Of the
campaign for the better education of
the children of the state, the commit
tees have worked out successful
program Of following up the children
who. having taken out permits to
work during the holidays, have failed
to report back at school. AS many
as five thousand children are now
thought to be working illegally.
The children'S bureau of the L. s.
department of labor today made pub
tic the findings of a brief survey into
the effect upon school children of
war time conditions in Washington,
.. c., made in connection with the
back to- school drive.
The survey shows that, while the
actual number Of children between
and IA in Washington increased 81
per cent. and the number between Is
and 10 increased 11.6 per cent be-
tween November I, 1915, and Novem-
Der ], 1917, the number of children
attending school did not increase cor
resDondinglX. The enrolment for the
school year 1917-18 was but per
cent more than that Of the previous
year. The attendance Of white chill
dren in the elementary schools in
creased. but there was q decrease in
the attendance at the elementary col
ored schools and at high schools for
both white and colored children.
The great increase in the number
of working permits issued in wash
ington in 1917-18 shows what has be-
come of these children. The total in
crease in the number of regular en-
ployment certificates issued in 1911
1918 over that for 1916-1917 was 1853
per cent. Especially great is the in
crease. 205.7 per cent. reported for
colOrcd boys
In Washington working permits
may be issued to the children between
u and IA by the judge Of the Juvenile
court upon proof of need. III permits
issued to children because OF poverty
the increase this year over last, was
295 per cent.
The bureau made special inquiry TO
learn the occupations into which
thes> children under IA had gone. In
1861. OF the PIT children granted
poverty permits, 81 per cent went
into stores, "a per cent, became office
messengers, II por cent. went into the
government departm as meH@et1~
gers, and per cent went into fae~
tories. In the year 1a17-1S, tho mum

conference to recognize them.
Paris, Aug. 25.-After Herbert
Hoover's appearance before the Coun.
Gil Of Five it was announced that the
council had sent note to the Hungar-
ian government declaring positively

OF the Hapsburg. Mr.. Hoover is re-
ported to have talked as plainly to

spondent

he declared. Nothing but a club
will accomplish anything in this stu.
alton. Neither the Bolsheviki nor the
Hapsburgers are necessary II we have
any sense Of direct action in a crisis.
1t Is just as much against the Bolshe-
wiki as against the Hapsburgs.

fought in vain If the Hapsburgs are
permitted to retain power"
Mr.. Hoover said there was no rea.
son why 10000 Roumanans should
keep order. as the Hungarians had
been disarmed. IL Archduke Joseph
were permitted to retain his position,
Mr.. Hoover said, 1t was inevitable that
the Hapsburgs would make similar
movement in Vienna.
