"I had such severe pnlns in my
buck," says Mrs. Albert Akroyd,
304 W. Indiana Avenue, Philadel-
phia, Pa., "that they almost doubled
me tip. Many a day I could not do
my housework and at every move
It seemed as If my
back would break in
two. My feet nnd
ankles swelled until
1 had to wear large-
sized slippers and
sometimes I couldn't
stand up.
"I had dizzy spells
and dreadful head-
a c h e a and fiery
flashes passed be- Mr>. Akrord
fore my eyes. Had a heavy weight
been resting on tny head, the pain
could not have been more distress-
ing. The least noise startled me, I
was so nervous. I couldn't control
the kidney secretions and the pain
in passage was awful.
"It began to look as though my
case was beyond the reach of medi-
cine until I used Doan'.i Kidney
Pills. The first box benefited me
and four boxes cured all the trou-
bles. I have had no further cause
for complaint."

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP-ROOT
For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the rrnarkable record
maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
It is a physician's prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. It helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.—Adr.
RUSSIANS HIT BY FAMINES
Shortages of Food Date From 1600—
8,000,000 Persons Reduced to Star-
vation in Famine of 1911.
Next to the proletariat of India and
China, the Russian peasant feels the
pinch of poverty and hunger more
keenly and more frequently than any
other, says the National Geographic
Society. One of the earliest Russian
famines on record was that of 1600,
with a death toll of 500,000 peasants.
Cats, dogs and rats were eaten, and
even the strong overcame the weak.
Human flesh was sold In the markets.
Three Russian famines of recent
date were among the most severe in
history—In 1891, 1900 and 1911. Dur-
ing the ten years following the first
of these, the government allotted
nearly $125,000,000 for relief, but the
sums were not always judiciously ex-
pended. In 1900 the government gave
40 pounds of flour a month to all per-
sons under eighteen years old and over
flfty-nlne. Those between these ages
received no allowance, and the older
and younger shared their pittance
with the others.
The famine of 1911 extended over
one-third the area of Europe nnd af-
fected 30,000,000 persons, while 8,-
000,000 were reduced to starvation.
Weeds, the bark of trees nnd bitter
bread made of acorns, constituted
the chief diet.
Will Raise Foxes in Japan.
The increasing demand for furs in

Goodwin himself was present at the
performance. After the gambol was

"Were you present at the preform-

"Yes," was the answer. "I was
there."
"And did you see my imitation of
you, Mr. Goodwin?" continued the
young man.
"Yes, I saw it," came the reply.
"And," persisted the aspiring
youth, "may I ask you to give me your
verdict on the excellence and fidelity
of my art as disclosed in the imper-
sonation of yourself?"
"Well," snld Mr. Goodwin, "one of
