FOR BACKACHE
KIDNEY AND

Stop Getting Up Nights
and Feel Younger
ADVERTISEMENT

Here's one good way to flush harm
full waste from kidneys and stop blad-
der irritation that often causes scanty
burning and smarty passage.
Ask your druggist for a 35-cent box
of Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules
a splendid, safe and harmless diuretic
and stimulant for weak kidneys and
irritated bladder.
Besides getting up nights, some symp-
toms of kidney trouble are backaches,
puffy eyes, leg cramps, and moist palms,
but be sure to get GOLD MEDAL
it's the genuine medicine for weak kid
neys-rtght from HARLEM in Holland.

Aspirub For Lame
SORE MUSCLES

Keep this in mind. Because Of the
other ingredients in Aspirub, the As
pirin this great rub contains, swiftly
penetrates thru the skin and greatly
helps the other pain killing agents to
do a fast and thorough Job Of relieving
aches, pains and soreness in joints and
muscles-it is the only rub containing
active Aspirin and protected by U. s.
patents.
Aspirub is a white, stainless, anti
septic ointment-it is powerful, pene-
trating and harmless. 1t is the new
external sensation for torturing Joint
pains and muscular aches and soreness.
Its success in the speedy relief of chest
colds, lumbago, backache, stiff neck
and sore feet is amazing. The cost is
small. Ask Peoples Drug or any live
druggist anywhere about Aspirub.

An amendment to the Fedora,
Constitution to force merit system
selection of employees in the Gov
eminent service has been asked by
the National Civil Service Reform
League, it was revealed today.
Support of Congress to the pro
posed measure has been urged by
Robert L. Johnson, president OF
the league, in a letter made public
today to all members and candi
dates for seats in the Senate and
House.
His letter suggests that the
amendment read as follows:
appointments and promo
tiOnS in the Civil Service of the
United Stat $ shall be made ac-
cOrding to merit and fitness to
be ascertained, as far as prac-
ticable, by examinations, which,
so far as practicable, shall be
competitive"
The organization leader pointed
out that such a move is the sole
effective means of assuring that
both political organizations will
put an end to wholesale patronage
in the Federal Government" add
ing that a recent poll of the Insti
tute of Public Opinion has shown
that SO per cent of the public
favors elimination of patronage in
favor Of merit.
Johnson said such a principle
already is in effect in some States
has proven practical, and asked
views on the question from each
Senator, Representative and Capt.
toll Hill candidate.
