DOES YOUR BACK ACHE :?

It's usually sign of sick kid
neys, especially if the kidney ac-
ton is disordered, passages scanty
or too frequent. Don't wait for
more serious troubles. Begin using
Doan's Kidney Pills. Read this
Yale testimony
Bert Jackson, says: II can con-
scientiously say that during the
last ten years | have used Doan's
Kidney Pills occasionally with the
greatest of relief. Sometimes my
back ached so much l thought it
would break, and then again,
sharp biting pains would catch
me. making me vince with pain.
The kidney secretions were scanty
and irregular in passage. BY us
ing Doan's Kidney Pills at these
times / have always been benefit
ted. Doan's have removed that
aching and pain in my back, put
my kidneys in good shape and
made it possible for me to do more
work"
Price Coo at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Deans Kidney Pills-the same
that Mr.. Jackson had. FoJter-Mil-

MICHIGAN JUNIORS
ACTIVE THIS YEAR

The Junior Red Cross committees In
Michigan are busy as the school year
advances, with programs Of direct
benefit to communities and with
humanitarian undertakings, notably In
the smaller communities.
In connection with the domestic ac-
tlvities, Juniors in manual training
schools and also In schools not
equipped with manual training are
making toys for the play-starved
youngsters in the war-wrecked area Of
the old world. All the schools In
which the juniors are organized are
in full swing, carrying out their gen.
erous work.
Michigan now has 1900 Junior Red
Cross committees and school auxiliar-

which do not have chapters.
