A Good Friend
. A good friend stands by you when
in need. Bellefonte people tell how
Doan’s Kidney Pills have stood the
test. Mrs. J. C. Johnson, of 3563
Bishop street, endorsed Doan’s eleven
years ago and again confirms the
story. Could you ask for more con-
vincing testimony ?
“I can’t say too much for Doan’s
Kidney Pills,” says Mrs. Johnson.
“They are the best remedy I have ever
used for backache and weak kidneys.
I was a great sufferer, I could hardly
straighten up or get around the
house. I had dizzy spells and would
nearly. fall over. . My kidneys acted
very irregularly. A member of my
family had used Doan’s Kidney Pills
and on his advice, I got a box from
the Green Pharmacy Co. 'They did
me more good than anything I had
ever used, .The backaches and pains
soon left, my kidneys became normal
and now I am enjoying good health.
Doan’s certainly cured me and I high-
ly recommend them to anyone having
backache or kidney trouble.”
Mrs. Johnson gave the above state-
ment October 21, 1907, and on Octo-
ber 19, 1918, she added: I am very
glad to confirm my former endorse-
ment of Doan’s Kidney Pills. No one
knows better than I what a wonderful
benefit they have been to me, for they
cured me of a serious kidney trouble.”

PESTILENCE CAUSED BY WAR
Generally Understood That the Influ-
enza Epidemic Was a Direct
Result of Great Conflict.
Sufficient time nas not yet elapsed
to determine the indirect effects of the
recent eruption of Mount Kloet in Java
-which ‘wiped out over a score of vil-
lages and killed thousands of the na-
tives, but recollections of Krakatoa’s
volcanic outburst in 1883 which within
six weeks sprinkled its fine lava dust
over the whole world, has given an in-
teresting suggestion to certain mem-
bers of the medical profession. During
the closing year of the war an influ-
enza epidemic raged in many parts of
the world. The manner of its out-
break in different countries indicated
that the germs of the disease had been
conveyed by the currents in the air.
theory, therefore, has been
broached that the poison gases with
which : many .sectors of the fighting |:
area were drenched. were carried by
the wind in every direction. causing
the influenza outbreak in Spain, Ger-
many, England, France, South Amer-
ica, Australia, Africa, Asia, as well as
in the United States and some of the
Central .American countries. That the
influenza-is a corollary of the war is
undoubted... Any similar: gigantic con-
flict, is argued, would be attended sith
a similar widespread pestilence—an-
‘other reason why every effort should
be made to avert wars in the future.—

Gérman: Cripples Employed.
"According ‘to’ the American Journal
for Cripples, published in ‘this city. | :
‘Germany issued a peremptory order in
January requiring the ‘employment: of
her disabled soldiers. All public: and
. private industries, offices and -adminis:
trations are directed to employ at least
one disabled soldier for every 100 per-
sons on the working staff, making no
distinction of sex, it is stated: :
In agricultural work the ‘proportion
must be one disabled soldier to every
50 employees, and in all cases the
disabled cannot be discharged except
with the consent of the workmen's
‘committee and after receiving 14 days’.

: ; HOOD'S SARSAPARILLA.
Catarrh Does Harm
Whether it is of the Nose, Throat, or
Other. Organs, Get Rid of It.
Catarrh of the nose or throat when
it becomes chronic weakens the deli-
cate lung tissues, deranges the diges-
tive organs, and may lead to con-
sumption. It impairs the taste, smell
and hearing, and affects the voice. It
is a constitutional disease and re-
quires a constitutional remedy.
Take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, which
by purifying the blood removes the
cause of the disease and gives per-
manent relief. This alterative and
tonic medicine has proved entirely
satisfactory to thousands of families
in three generations. frat
If there is biliousness or constipa-
tion, take Hood’s Pills,—they are a
thorough cathartic, a gentle laxative.
