 An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as tonishing statement that one reason why many applicants for insurance are re- jected is because kidney trouble is 90 common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica- tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.

THE FOND TOADS

"Goog-a-room, goog-a-room,' said MT. Fowler Toad. "Ah, let me sing to you, Miss Toad, for I would love to tell you in song how I love you"
 "Goog-a-room,'' said Miss Toad softly.
 Now MT. Fowler Toad was a hand some young creature, so thought Miss Fowler Toad, but she did not want to seem too eager. She wanted to make him urge her to be his mate.
 Then when he had urged a great long time she would consent. Oh yes, yes, indeed, she would consent !
 It was the Springtime and MT. FOw- Ter Toad was very happy and rested, too, for he had had fine sleep. He wore a dull brownish suit with some stripes and spots for decoration. His throat was usually puffed out as he was usually singing on these spring time evenings.
 It was warm, it was pleasant, and he loved to sing. He didn't expect Miss Fowler Toad to sing, for he knew the ladies could neither sing nor could they croak. That was not to be held against them. It simply wasn't their way.
 'I would like to sing. you a song," of the spring, the joy of love and the joy of being a toad
 ''There are three joys, three per feet joys. Will you heed me, Miss Fowler Toad?'

HARDIN PUT BACK
 ON HIS FEET TWICE
Was Relieved of Both Rheumatism and Stomach Trouble by Tanlao,
 States Los Angeles Man.

'For the second time Tan1ac has put me on my feet, and you may know by that what think of it," said William T. Hardin, 14Oo Garden St, Los An- geles, Calif.
 Three years ago, I had rheumatism In my shoulders and neck so bad could hardly work. I tried medicine after medicine only to get worse, but finally I got hold of Tanlac, and I haven't had a trace of rheumatism since.
 ''Then last summer my stomach got put of order, I lost my appetite and what little I did eat made me feel bloated, all stuffed up and miserable. always felt weak, tired and worn out, and was so nervous couldn't sleep.
 "Well, Tanlac did a good job for me before, so I just got some more of 1t, and now it has again fixed me up, and I'm feeling strong and energetic like I used to. I'll tell the world Tanlac's the medicine for me-"
 Tanlac is sold by all good druggists.

ALFALFA IS BIG MONEY CROP
Increases Number of Animals That Can Be Carried on Farm and
 Enriches Soil.

The great benefits from alfalfa in clude the increasing of the number of live stock that can be carried on the farm; lowering the cost of feeding, and improving the land for following cultivated and small grain crops. In addition to these advantages, alfalfa is one of the best money crops that can be grown under present condi- tions. From three to five tons of hay per acre can be expected from good stand. At present prices for alfalfa hay, it is doubtful if any other gen eraI field crop can show as large a net profit per acre as alfalfa during the past year.

Coach Oliver Carlson, who has met
with wonderful success in football,
although starting the year with only
three veterans in the lineup in the
first football game, has called out
candidates for the Alma High bask-
etball squad and hopes are held for
speedy team.
A large number of men are an
swering the call and it is expected
within another week from score
to thirty candidates will be out
scrapping for places on the team I'M
der this popular mentor, who evident
ly has way about him of getting
his men to come through with the
goods. Among the men who have
turned out for the eleven are a few
of the veterans from last years ag-
gregation. If these men make the
grade again this year Carlson will
have few holes to plug in the lineup
in turning out highly capable bunch
of court performers.

KAS00 Forced to Yield
Before the Superior Play
of Stvubby alma Team

9goal for the only points of the game.
Score-Alma 2, Kalamazoo O.
Play started on the Kalamazoo 80
yard line and throughout the re-
mainder of the fray Kalamazoo by
lineslashing, end runs, and with the
forward pass as her principal weap-
on, he attempted to break through
the Alma defense for a touchdown.
Twice in the fourth quarter he was
near enough on fourth downs to try
dropkicks. One from the 35 yard
line went dead five yards from the
Alma goal. A second one was block
ed and Alma recovered the ball.
Alma every time that she got the
ball smashed the line as long as she
could make the needed yardage and
then punted, and every effort on the
part of the Kalamazoo team to break
down the Alma defense failed Time
and again passes were tried only to
be blocked. Just as the game ended
Alma intercepted Kalamazoo pass
on the Kazoo 80 yard line. During
practically the entire period follow
ing the safety play was in Kalama-
zoo territory, with the Kazooks
threatening constantly by use of the
aerial game.
During the contest Kalamazoo at
tempted 20 passes working for a
total of 81 yards. Eleven passes
failed for Alma intercepted 4. Alma
tried only Z passes, worked for a
total of 73 yards, grounded and had
2 intercepted. During the game
Alma made first downs, in each
of the first two periods, one in the
third and none in the fourth when
Alma was punting whenever she got
the ball, and was playing defensively
to hold to the two hard won points.
Kalamazoo made one first down in
the first period, one in the second
and 8 in the fourth. In the third
period she failed to make a first
down. Alma was penalized during
the game a total of 80 yards and Ka-
ZOO a total of 81 yards.
The entire Alma team played stel-
lar football against Kalamazoo from
start to the finish of the contest,
every man who went into the fray
giving his very best efforts for the
Maroon and Cream, but outstanding
were Johnston, Mcdonald, Stewart,

Alma to Encounter
NOrnlaLs Saturday

Saturday will see one of the big
games of the year when the Maroon
and Cream eleven meets the Mt.
Pleasant Normals in the Teachers
stronghold, in battle that promises
TO be blinger from start to finish
as the two elevens are apparently
somewhat nearly evenly matched.
The intense rivalry in baseball
and basketball for the past ten or
fifteen years between the two
schools has been continued over to
football with the rapid rise of the
Normal in the fall sport during the
past few years and it had its high
point last year when the Teachers
handed Alma % to 0 defeat, when
they were rated too cheaply and
Alma endeavored to sandwich
them in with two other games in
eight days.
The Maroon and Cream still
smarts under the sting of that de-
feat and there is real determine
ton in the Alma camp to wipe out
the defeat this year if possible by
slipping over a victory on the Teach
ers. The Alma coaches staff will
be working hard this week to have
the team in the best possible shape
for the fray.
The Normals will not be caught
asleep by Alma. This game is the
big contest of the year for the Nor
malites and they are putting forth
every effort to have the Isabelle
County eleven in fine condition for
a gruelling battle and Alma is not
going to find the going easy at any
stage Of the game. The Normals
will be in shape and most willing to
battle hard for every inch of ground
before it is yielded to the Maroon
and Cream.
1t is expected that a big delega-
tion of Alma fans will go to Mt.
Pleasant for the game, both from
the College and from the Town.

that if any team disputed the honor
