MYSTERIOUS PAINS AND
ACHES
Hake Lite Hard to Bear tor Many Gra
ham Women.
t
Too maDy women mistake their
pains and aches for troubles peculiar
to the sex. More often disordered
kidneys are causing the aching back,
dizzy spells, headaches and irregular
urination.* Kidney weakness be
comes dangerous if neglected. Use
a time-tried kidney — Doan's
Kidney Pills. Hosts of people testify
to their merit. Read a Graham case:
Mrs. W. T. Ezell, N; Maple Street,
says: "I was almokt disabled with
pains in the small of my back, ana
I suffered all the time. I was so
nervous and had such headaches,!
could hardly endure the misery.
One of our family had used Doan's
Kidney Pills with good results and
told me to try them, f took this
remedy and.the pains and all other
troubles, disappeared."
Price BOc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidrtey remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
that Mrs. Ezell had. Foster-Mi burn

As the Holiday Season approaches our hearts are filled with joy of liv
ing and giving, which is the true Spirit of Christmas, and who dares to
'■■ say there is no Santa Claus as long as the worhkhofds love and faith of
• little laughing children and the memory of our own happy childhood?
Not since that first Christmas Day in Bethlehem, two thousand years
a ? 0 ' w^en J esus of Nazeretfi, born in a manger, came with His gift of,
Life Eternal, has the season carried with it such meaning as it does this
pT • year. A year of the safe return of our army from over-seas, and
triumph those things for which He lived and #ed, has put the
heart back into the Christmas Season, and filled us with the joy that comes
°f forgetting ourselves in the happiness of others.
' Wrapped in the sweetening power of (/f
Christmas, we seem to hear already the mu
& sic of childish voices, with their joyous un- jJKa
tra:ined melody, as they clasp each new and 1
Yes, it's going to be a wonderful Christ-
