But Not So Bad If You Know How To M‘fibm Nothing more discouraging than a: constant backache. Lame when you awaken, . pains pierce you when you pend or 1ift. It's hard to work or_to rest. Backache often indicates bad Kidneys. Norwich people recommend Doan's Kidney Pllls. Read this case: James 1.

If T ‘bend over for any length of time it is just like having a knife thrust into my back to straighten up. The kidney action 1is irregular. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured from Nicholson's Drus Store, have always cured these at- tacks. I have tried other medicines but have always found it necessary to use Doan's Kidney Pills to get cured” Price 50z, at all dealers.

The street light committee report- ed to the common council that 13 lo- cations in the central part of the cit) have been selected for the 400 can- dlepower lamps that are to be install- ed and which are to burn from dusk to 11 p. m, adding decidedly to the brilliancy of the street illumination in the sections where they are to be lo- cated.

EVERYBODY PLANTING al Need of Ri Big Crops. The campaign for more acres un der cutivation. more gardens, mor work_in the fields is having its effect. All along the railroad and trolley lines and along the highways, travelers see | more land being plcwed in towns in this section of Windham county than over before ,and the result is pleas- ing. That the plea for big crops is a Vi tal one has been driven home to many working men by the extraordinary rise in prices of various food stuffs even within the last three weeks. With po- tatoes at $4 a bushel, flour at $16.50 a barrel and other articles in like pro- portion no stronger argument is need- ed to induca men to go out into the fields and try srowing something on their own account. There isn’t a chance of producinz too much food stuff this year, for this country has other nations to feed, so the call of those who ars urging ag. ricultural work upon the muititude is for more and even more planting.
