GETTING UP NIGHTS
This Is One of Natures Danger Sig
mails. E. e. Mullen Tells
Experience

e. e. Mullen, No. Kenova, Ohio,
says: For 10 years l have been
troubled with kidneys and bladder.
/ had to get up or 6 times each
night. I had taken many kinds of
medicine, but Lithiated Buchu
(Keller formula) is the only kind
that gave me any relief. My
bladder is normal and l have only
used the remedy for three weeks.
If you want further facts, write
me-"
Lithiated Buchu (Keller formu-
la) acts on the kidneys and blad-
der like EPSON Salts on the bowels.
1t cleans them out, relieving the
bladder of many abnormal deposits.
These tablets cost &c apiece. The
price makes it possible to place in
the formula several drugs which
are useful for relief. The formula
is on the package. 1t is not likely
you have ever taken anything SINH
lar. Try a few tablets for back
ache, scalding, scanty or high-col-
ored urine and frequent desire at
night.
Be sure to get the Keller formula
Lithiated Buchu at all drug stores
or write Keller Laboratory, Me-
chanicsburg, o., or locally at Dan
ford Pharmacy

Preventative Medicine

The tendency of medical science
is toward preventative measures. 1t
is easier and better to prevent than
to cure. Pneumonia, one of the
most dangerous diseases that medi-
cal men have to contend with, often
follows a cold, or attack of the grip
The cold prepares the system for the
reception and development of the
pneumonia germ. The longer the
cold hangs on, the greater the
danger. Take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy as soon as the first indica-
tion of cold appears so as to get
rid of it with the least possible de-
lay. 1t is folly to risk an attack of
pneumonia when this remedy may
be obtained for a trifle.-Sold

FREDERICKSBURG Va, July e.
Water in the upper Rappahannocls
river is lower than 1t has been at this
season since the record has been kept
for thirteen years by the Spotsylvania
Power Company.
No water has been coming over the
dam Of the company for several days.
The lower water period usually oc-
ours the latter part of September and
the first of October, Judge Embrey
stated, but the present condition is
brought about by the continued
drought and parched condition of the
land, which readily absorbs the rain
fall.
The electric power for the sand
and gravel works at Massaponax
and the silk mill here has been cut
off. A double force Of workmen is
busily engaged on construction of the
auxiliary power plant and it is hoped
by the company to have the addition
al power units in operation within
the next two weeks, which will make
them entirely Independent Of weather
and water conditions. In the mean
time the Spotsylvania Power Com
pany is doing all possible to keep
local industrial plants and other con
sumers Of electrial power sufficiently
supplied with power.
