It's Foolish to Suffer
You may be brave enough to
stand backache, or headache, or
dizziness. But if, in addition, ur
ination is disordered, look out!
If you don't try to fix your sick
kidneys, you may fall into the
clutches of kidney trouble before
you know it. But if you live more
carefully and help your kidneys
with Doan's Kidney rills, you can
stop the pains you have and avoid
future danger as well.

How to Feel Well During Middle
Life Told by Three Women Who
Learned from Experience,
The Change of Life is a most critical period of a
woman's existence, and neglect of health at this time invites
disease and pain. Women everywhere should remember
that there is no other remedy known to medicine that will
so successfully carry women through this trying period as
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from
native roots and herbs. Read these letters:
PPIJ
Philadelphiru Pa. "I started the Change of life
five years ago. I always had a headache and back
ache with bearing down pains and I would have
heat flashes very bad at times with dizzy spells and
nervous feelings. After taking Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound I feel like a new person and
am in better health and no more troubled with
the aches and pains I had before I took your won
derful remedy. I recommend it to my friends for I
cannot praise it enough." Mrs. Margaret Grass

good results from it." Mrs. George A. Dunbar,
17 Roundy St., Beverly, Mass.
Erie, Pa. "I was in poor health when the
Change of Life started with me and I took Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, or I think I
6hould not have got over it as easy as I did. Even
now if I do not feel good I take the Compound
and it 'restores, me in a short time. I will praise
your remedies to every woman for it may help
them as it has me." Mrs. E.-Kissuno, S31 East

"Regimens ! Regimens I" 6aid Prof.
Hilary McMasters before the Harvard
Medical school.
"There are too many nonsensical
regimens, young gentlemen. I prefer
the regimen of Mark Twain to all such
rubbish.
"Mark had a very strict regimen,

cigar at a time, and never smoked
while sleeping.
"He never ate meat except with
his meals, and he never drank except
at meals and between meals.
"His father took a drug store for
a bad debt in Mark's boyhood, and
among the stores were nine barrels of
cod liver oil. These lasted Mark seven
years, The rest of the family had to

in fact, the first oil trust, ne got it

Farm , Lands Increase in Value.
The value of farm lands of the Unit
ed States is estimated at $45.55 per
acre, as compared with $40.85 a year
ago. $40.31 two years ago, $38.10 three
years ago and $30.23 four years ago.
The census reported the value of
farm lands in 1910 as $32.40, and in
1900 as $15.57 per acre.
In recent years the value of farm
lands has been Increasing at the rate
of about 5 per cent a year, or approxi
mately $2 per acre per year. The ex
ceptional increase of the past year
may be explained partly by the reac:
tion in the southern cotton states fol
lowing a temporary depression last
3-ear, and partly by the stimulus given
by the war to prices, particularly of
grain.

Is naturally of heavier materials than

velveteen, and corduroy contribute to
Its durability and to its style as well.
It is likely that these new sports
suits for autumn will be Innocent of
stripes. Those shown so far are of
plain materials or of plaids and plain
fabrics made up together, and they
are undeniably smart. Young or old,
women wear about the same styles In
them, and they subtract years from the
matron's appearance in a way to make
her rise up and call them blessed,
besides cheerfully parting with her
good money for them.
Among the most enticing suits, those
made of white serge combined with
the same materials in handsome col

Elegant Hats for
Two very elegant hats, made for
those In mourning, are shown. They
will satisfy the most discriminating
taste, for they fulfill all the require
ments for correct millinery of this par
ticular kind. They are made in con
servative and becoming shapes, of
English crape or of a specially woven
silk and crape, and the workmanship
In them is above reproach.
An all-crape hat is shown at the
left, and all the world over Its import
Is understood. It is the materiul used
for the first period of mourning. The
shape is a drooping brimmed sailor of
moderate size, and it is covered
smoothly with crape. The facing is
of the same exquisite material. Crape
is of a texture that lends Itself to the
making of flower forms, and the trim
ming of this hat is . made of crape.
There four large roses, each made
of tnre sizes of crape petals set about
n cabochon of crape at the center of
the flower. The hat is lined with a
ft silk.

plaid, and a white coat has plaid cuffs
and collar, lirelt and pockets.
When the story is not told in plaids
it veers to colored velveteens or cor

skirt is worn with a taupe gray coat
of velveteen with girdle of soft satin.
Buttons and tassels make the quiet
finish. The blouse is of crepe de chine
made plain.
It will be noticed that the skirt ex

kind with assurance. It is good to

"Aren't you afraid your course will

TO hold "its place in the sun," is the avowed purpose
e a great nation's conflict. To hold! "its place in
the sun," is the object of every business in the great
fight for industrial and commercial supremacy.
To be able to hold "its place in the sun," is the supreme
test of an asphalt roof. It is the sun, notlrain or snow,
that plays havoc with a roof. If it can refeist the drying
out process of the sun beating down upon it, day after
day, the rain or snow will
it clean and keep it sanitary.
Roofing
takes "its place in the sun" and holds it longer
than other similar roofing, because it is made
of the very best quality roofing felt, thoroughly
saturated with the correct blend of soft asphalts,
and coated with a blend of harder asphalts.
This outer coating keeps the inner saturation
soft, and prevents the drying out process so
destructive to the ordinary roof.
The blend of asphalts used by "The General"
is the result of long experience. It produces
a roofing more pliable than those which have
less saturation, and which are, therefore,
harder and drier.
At each of the General's big mills, expert
chemists are constandy employed to refine,
test and blend the asphalts used; also to experi
ment for possible improvements. Their constant
endeavor is to make the best roofing still better.
The quality of CERTAIN-TEED is such that
it is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according
to thickness (l,2or3ply). Experience proves
that it lasts longer. Behind this guarantee is the
responsibility of the world's largest manufac
turer of roofings and building papers.
