BIRTH UNO DEATH FIGURES POPULAR Vital Statistics Used by Rich and Poor, Rich and poor from all walks of life daily refer to the record of births and deaths kept at the city hall by the board of health. Inquiries come in on every mail, whether it be from the United States Government or a curious neirrhlxir who wants to know details connect ed with the stork's arrival. Vital statistics are important. A though not elaborately kept, thfurnish valuable information to liftinsurance companies verifying dates of birth, completing their claim records in event of a death. Lawyers consult them often. Dates of death in provisions of wills often enter into settling affairs of an estate. From ten to 1 fteen certified copies of a death are made daily at the city hall for use in tracing title of property. Uncle Sam requires a weekly, monthly and yearly report on birth and date rate so Indianapolis can be compared with other cities. The wave of epidemics sweeping the country is wajehed on such reports.

■ /T) r .o (| WH'XSk,7 f rs^t Is 'Yo^Back Giv^g^Out? You Can’t Be Happy When Every Day Brings Nagging Backache and You Are Tired, Nervous and Unfit.

EVERY day the same old nagging backache? No let-up to the lameness and stiffness—no sudden twist without those torturing, knife like twinges? It's little wonder you are so worried, worn out and discouraged. Your health and happiness are too precious to carelessly let slip away. You owe it to yourself to be prompt in finding out what is wrong. Likely it's your kidneys. Too often these hard-working blood filters are neglected. They weaken and impurities accumulate.

“Use Doan s , ” Say These Indianapolis Folks:

Rev. A. E. Kerst, 1110 Oliver Ave., say: "My bark ached ami whfn I eto©|ed, sharp catcher caught me. I didn't have much energy and was very nervous. My kidneys were disordered. 1 man's Pills rid me of the trouble and I haven't been bothered since.”
