It just seemed as if my back would break in two, and I could not stoop over without pain. I was nervous, had to get up several times during the night to attend to nature’s laws, and did not sleep well. I would get up in the morning with a dull aching headache and feeling just as tired as when I went to bed. Nothing did me any good till I found Viuna, and right from the first I began to improve.

New Disease Os Rabbits Is Affecting Humans Three cases of a new disease called tularemia, contraicted by humans from rabbits, have just been reported In Lawrence County, Illinois. According to Dr. Tom Kirkwood, of Lawrenceville, the disease was contracted in dressing rabits for table use. The evident scarcity of rabbits and other rodents In Indiana and Illinois at tho present time Is apparently largely due to epidemics of disease according to G. C. Oderkirk of tho U. S. Biological Survey, working in cooperation with the Purduo University Agricultural Experiment Station. Per sons dressing or skinning specimens of rodents should take precautions against infection and should cook the meat thoroughly before using it. Infection takes place usually through cuts or other abriaslons of the skin while dressing these rodents. A statement regarding tularemia recently sent out by the Bureau of Biological Survey is as follows: “Tho recurrent eqizootic disease recently described under the name tularemia, which Mils off rabits in great numbers, has been subject of interest for many years not only as a striking, natural phenomenon! that appeared to occur among wild rabbits more or less periodically, but also because it served as a natural means to reduce the numbers of these rodents.” o Recommends Chair Os “Boy Guidance” In College Chicago, Dec. 2.—(United Press)— Asserting that many boys come to college with no definite purpose, except , to get through with a minimum of exertion, J. B. Shaw, dean of men in lowa
