All 100 often women accept tlielr pains and aches as natural Io their sex. They fell Io realize that weak kidneys are often to blame for that backache. those headaches, dizzy spells and that tired, depressed fe d ing. Thousands have found ne w heal th and strength by helping the weakened kidneys with Doan's Pills A stiinu'aut diuretic. This Decatur case is one of many. Mrs. Emma Parr, 329 North 9'h st., says: “There were bearing d<>*.n pains in the small of my back. Sharp pains took me when I bent and it was hard for me to straighten. Mornings my back was lame and st|ff. Backach • troubled me so badly day alter day I soon felt tired and weak Little specks blurred my sight and 1 had spells of dizziness, too. My kidneys were sluggish and the secretions did 1 not pas often enough. Doan’s Pills from the Holthouse Drug Co., drove away the kidney trouble."

A large white bouquet in the center of the table gave the room an air of bridal festivity. Miss Matilda Sellemeyer and Mrs. W. A. Lower prepared the menu and each teacher contributed some portion of it. The food was both appetizing and plentiful. Between courses, several stunts were given-by the men and the honor guests. The men thought their chorus work was not up to standard because their high tenor. Mr. Floyd Gibson, had not yet finished the first course. In a well prepared, but poorly delivered speech, (due to constant interruptions by M". Lower) Mr. Guy \\ . Brown presented the gifts to the three distinguished guests. The first package which they opened contained a beautiful scrub-brush, but it evidently did not produce tiie expected thrill. A year hence it wi’ll be more appreciated Tlie opening of the second package, however, caused exclamation of surprise and delight us three electric percolators were produced. Each packnowledged her appreciation of the gifts. Miss Reisen spoke her little speech in German. The two “nightingales ” Messrs. Gibson and Bryce Thomas then sang several appropriate numbers. In song and story every- , body tried to impress upon tlie minds of the happy trio the importance of the
