Book shelves should be cleaned
and painted, and books frequently
dusted, to prevent the breeding of
moths, silverfish, or other book de-
vouring insects.
When laundering woolens, be
sure to use plenty of soapsuds. It
i minimizes the rubbing, and there-
fore preserves the garment longer.

And Your Strength.and
Energy Is Below Par
It may be caused by disorder of kid-
ney function that permits poisonous
wasto to accumulate. For truly many
people feel tired, weak and miserable
when theikidneys fail to remove excess
acids andjothcr waste matter from the
blood.
You may suffer nagging backache,
rheumatic pains, headaches, dizziness,
getting up nights, leg pains, swelling.
Sometimes frequent and scanty urina-
tion with smarting and burning Is an-
other sign that .something Is wrong with
the kidneys or bladder.
There should be no doubt that prompt
treatment Is wiser than neglect. Use
Doan’t Pills. It Is better to rely, on a
medicine that has won countrywide ap-
proval than on something less favorably
known. Doan’s have been tried and test-
ed many years. Are at all drug stores.

due to MONTHLY LOSSES?
You girls and women who’lose bo
much during monthly periods that
you’re pale, weak, “dragged out”—
this may be due to lack of blood-iron.

— one of the best home ways to
build up red blood—in such cases.
