By Mary Lou Miller,

Sufferers from any form
of kidney trouble endure
more misery in the heat
t ed season of the year than
at any other time When
the kidneys are a:ting
properly, the perspiration
is normal and Nature
keeps the body at an even
heat regardless of weath
er. Healthy action of the
kidneys depends upon a
constant free supply of
nervous impulses. The
cause of kidney disease is
disturbance of the align
ment of spinal joints,
causing pressure at "kid
ney place" upon spinal
nerves to the kidneys.
Usually kidney sufferers
are conscious of pain or
tenderness at this point.
Chiropratic spinal adjust
ment restore the align- (
ment, and remove the
cause of ths disease.
Had Bright' Disease
and was 6Wm Up
I was advised that I
had Bright's Disease of
the kidneys and was un
der the care of two phy
scians who said that I
would die. On January
14, 1 began taking chiro
pratic spinal adjustments.
Under continuous adjust-
ments in April I was well,
t. The dizziness, the pain in
my head, the swelling
afar my body, and the
. constant pain over my
kidneys are all gone

Dear Miss Hecklin:
A new Cecil B. Or Mille picture!
If you've seen "Male and Female"
"Why Change Your Wife?", or any of the
other brilliant De Mille productions, you
know what a treat that means.
The latest De Mille picture is called
"Something to Think About". Ifs re
freshingly different from anything he has
ever attempted heft re. The story is a
bout plain folks and deep in its heart ap
peal. A country girl who allows a sudden
infatuation to sweep her away from the
man she really loves is the central figure
Beatiful Gloria Swanson ii the heroine
and Elliot Dexter, whom you liked so well
in "For Better, For Worse", plays the
leading male role. Such favorites as
Theodore Roberts and Monte Blue are
also in the cast. It's a Paramount pict
ure. Produced with all the De Mille artistry,
Something to Think About" is- bound to
delight you. We will show it Friday, July
1st. May we expect you?
Sincerely,
W. G. Atkinson,
