Be Careful After Fever, Cold
or Grip
Many Fatal Cases Of Kidney Troubl 8
Can Be Traced to Some Infectious
Disease.

| Colds, feyers and infectious disease,
very often leave the kidneys weak. Sc
little attention is given the condition ol
the kidneys during recovery from the
original trouble that severe attack ~oi
kidney disease often follows. Here's
how It happens. The kidneys are worked
hard enough in healthy times. They
have to filter the blood. In any germ
disease the blood Ia loaded with extra
poisons made by the disease germs. This
ovsrwork tends to weaken the kidneys.
After colds, grip, scarlet fever, typhoid,
measles, pneumonia. diphtheria, tonsil.
tits or chicken pox, watch for bscksche
and urinary disorders, aud promptly use
Doan's Kidney Pills. South Paris peo.
Pile have found Doan's reliable in many
forms of kidney trouble.
Here is South Paris woman's expert
ence.
Mrs. Horstlo j. Farnham, Pearl

Qualified Marksman.

By showing marked skill on the rifle
range, Private Arthur W. Boyle Of West
Sumner, this county, has qualified as a
marksman in the U. s. Marine Corps, &C.
cord ing to an official report from Wash
ngton. he will be awarded the medal
worn by msrksmen, and will receive an
increase in pay.
Private Boyle, who is son Of James
Boyle of West Sumner, enlisted in the
Marine Corps at Lewiston on October 81,
1919 For several months he has been
assigned to duty on board the U. S. 8.
Oklahoma, one of the largest battleships
in the Atlantic fleet. The marines pride
themselves upon their ability as rife
men, and Private Boyle has shown that
he is capable of holding his own with
the skilled shots of the corps.
The Oklahoma was recently assigned
to duty 10 Southern waters, and an addi-
tional company of marines was placed
tenn porarily aboard the big dreadnaught.
Private Boyle, however, Is a member Of
the regular Marine Guard, and so will
doubtless be stationed on this vessel for
several months.

Chautauqua subject is an adaptation
from his famous lecture "The Sunset

on the third day Of our Community
Chautauqua, and it is hardly necessary
to say that he will inject into his dis
course many of those personal touches
from his own varied life and travels.

Quick Potato Soup-This recipe for
potato soup 10 extremely satisfying, and
nsr is rather light. To one cupful of
half.inch cubes Of potato add one and
one half cupfuls of water and pinch of
salt. Boil until tender. In the mean
time fry one small onion cut into small
pieces with one tablespoonful of fat un-
oil golden brown in color. When the
potatoes are tender, pour the liquid into
the Drowned onion and press the pota-
toes through fine sieve. Add to the
liquid together with one-half cupful Of
evaporated milk, one-eighth teaspoonful
of pepper and one teaspoonful OF salt.

PAPER Backing for Pictures.

To paste new paper backings on
framed pictures. the paper, cut to the
proper size, should first be fioated in
a pan of water until 1t Is entirely wet
The paste should be applied to the
frame, and the paper, from which
the actual drops Of water have beer
wiped, should be pressed into place
upon the frame. AS the Paper dries II

A Hint for Canning DAYS.

When rhubarb, or pieplant, To at III
best, and am stewing 1t for sauce,
always cook an extra pint or two which
I can, using some little pint jars will
glass covers that can use over and over
the covers, mean. Then, as Other
fruit comes on, berries, etc., open these
little pint jars and mix the rhubarb with
any other fruit that may fall short, OF
that may be scarce. A small amount OF
| pieplaDt may be mixed with most any
kind of fruit, cooked together, and the
difference scarcely be detected. Pie
plant Is especially nice to combine with
all kinds of berries. 1t should, when be-
ing prepared for canning, be cut in very
small pieces; place on bread board and
slice rapidly with sharp knife. Cut in
larger pieces 1t cooks nicely, but presents
q fibrous appearance, which does not
blend so we'll with other fruits. The
proportion may vary, anywhere up to
half and half. Pieplant is nice canned
with apples, especially apples that are
not very tart. And might add,
can up good bit of applesaucs when
apples are most plentiful and the flavor
is at its best. There is nothing like cap
turing the flavor in fruit, and apples
nicely as they keep-do not have the
same flavor when cooked after long
keeping as they do fresh from the trees
early in the season. Then, too, many
kinds of apples-some that make the
most delightful of sauces-will not keep
at all. Can these early, when in season,
and give variety to your fruit cupboard.
While sugar is so costly, one may use
a tiny bit of soda with acid fruits. They
will take much less sugar, and many like
the result quite as well. 1t is worth
while, 1 find, to experiment and learn
Just what the family like. By
the way, l use the glsss-topped, pint
jars, when am canning such things as
pieplant, which expect to open again
within few weeks or two months, at
most, simply because l do not need to
buy new covers each time the jars are
opened. 1t Is one of my little economies.
Then these little pint jars are used
again, late In the season, for canning
strained cooked tomatoes, seasoned and
ready for soup. Enough tomato puree
for large dish of tomato soup may be
packed away in little pint jar. Il
always can enough to last us the winter
through-and, last but not least, my
little pint cans are 80 much easier to
open than the heavy tin in which toma-
toes bought at the store must be canned.
Just little thing-all just little things
but, after all, isn't big lot of house.

Second Reading
Irish Home Rule
Bill in House Lords

London. Nov. 25-The House of
Lords today carried the second read
ing Of the Irish Home Rule BILL re-
jecting proposal for adjournment.
The committee stage of the meas
ure will be started next Wednesday.
All of this afternoons session was
taken up with discussion of the ad-
journment proposal, presented By
Earl Middleton. The motion, which
provided for a fortnight's recess to
allow the government time to con-
slider what amendments, financial and
otherwise, it would propose. was final
majority than the government ex-
pected. This was taken as tending TO
show that the Irish home rule bill
will not, as has been feared in some
quarters, be killed by the House OF
Lords.
After Earl Midletons motion was
disposed Of Lord Dunraven's motion
for rejection of the bill was defeated,
1854 to as, and the bill passed the sec
ond reading.
Earl Middleton complained that "the
interests of South and Southwest Ire
land are sacrificing to the interest OF
Ulster. particularly with regard t.
finance" He urged that Ireland be
given fiscal control of every thing
that did not concern imperial in
terests and expressed the belief that
the government would. be certain of
defeat if it tried to force the bill in
its present shape on the South and
West,
