reader of this who suffers the tor
lures of an aching back, the annoy
ance of urinary disorders, the pains
and dangers of kidney ills will fail to

Americas citizen says:

St., says: Sometime ago l suffered
a great deal from backache. l had
dull, throbbing pain in the small
of my back all the time. When
would stoop over / would get such
sharp, shooting pains in the small of
my back, I could hardly straighten
up. Doan's Kidney Pills were rec
commended to me and I began tax
ing them. One box completely cur
ed me. I have never been troubled
since"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Baldwin had. Foster-Mil-

Alborum, Used as Foot Bath Re-
duces Inflammation, Relieves
Soreness, Dispels Odors and
Restores Feet to Healthy Con-
dition.

Painful, perspiring, swollen feet,
with corns, bunions and ingrowing
nails, are all caused by germs which
grow in the pores of the skin, caus-
ing decay of the cuticle, rawness, &C.
Zema, inflammation and odor.
These germs are instantly destroy
ed by Alborum, a cleasing, soothing,
deodorizing and healing antiseptic,
and astringent. 1t draws out the in
flammation and soreness, dispels the
odor and quickly restores health to
both skin and nails.
Ingrowing nails do not grow down
into the flesh as supposed, but the
flesh, being swollen, is pressed up over
the nail Alborum takes out the
swelling and inflammation, destroys
the germs and the trouble disappears.
An Alborum foot bath is made by
simply dissolving little Alborum in
warm water. Get a package from
any druggist for 35c. Alborum has
many other daily uses as an antisep-
tic in the home-(a (adv.)

Work On Park to
Start This Week

Work will start on clearing the
land for the Bogalusa amusement
park this week, and it is expected
that within the next two weeks
enough land will have been cleared
to start work on the airdome, which
will be one of the first buildings to
be erected.
Charles Webster, who is to look
after the details, stated before leav-
ing the city Monday on three-da.y
trip in adjoining parishes, that on his
return work would start on clearing
the property. Already inquiries have
been made as to leasing privileges IN
the park, among which is marry
go-round.
1t is assured the park will be built
and that the airdome will be ready
for opening by the time the warm
nights arrive. The opening attrac-
ton has not been selected, but there
is some talk of having a good vaude-
vile show as well as pictures for the
opening night.

Spring Opening
Unusual Success

It looked more like a grand open
ing at the Bogalusa Stores on Mon
day afternoon than a Spring Open
ing.
With one of the finest jazz bands
in New Orleans furnishing the music,
with Heinz serving many of his 81
varieties, with coffee and cakes be-
ing served all guests, with a store
brimful of the freshest spring mer-
chandise and a large sales force on
hand with an expression of 81 am
mighty glad to see you," hundreds of
cltlzens OF Bogalusa accepted the in
vitation of Manager Max Wilson and
visited the store. All were mighty
glad the did. The opening eclipsed
anything in the history of Bogalusa
and records for attendance were
broken.
The windows and interior decora-
tons were a credit to any of the larg-
er stores, due to the work and ability
Of Julian Willoughby.
Nothing was left undone to make
the event an enjoyable one. The
younger folks could not resist the
temptation to dance and room was
made for them on the second floor.
Others inspected the millinary and
departments which dis
played a line that would be a credit
to any store.
