Backache and. Kidney Trouble
While Backac‘he in itself is not
a disease, it indicates a derange-
ment of: the vital organs—it's a
‘ symptom of disease. Kidney
trouble, at any stage, is serious
and neglect of the symptom
means neglecting the disease.
' Curing a Backache means cur-
ing diseased Kidneys and reliev-
ing them of congestion. This
can be done in the early stages. ,
Buker’ s Kidney Pills are specific
for the cure of Backache and
Kidney trouble, if taken 1n time.
It’s a vegetable remedy. Drug-
gists sell them for 50 cents.

eriul remedies known to modern science.is ad-
mi t-ted by many of the highest authorities in
England, Europe and America.
It's success in Rheumatism, and kindred
diseases. has been phenomenal. Malaria, or
any blood poison, quickly yields to its potent
influence. Ne11ralgia,or nerve Daln,is immv
diately. relieved under . the influence of Hm
Air in the Turkish bath.
As a Luxury. it surpasses all others, and as
a Sanitary measure, a Turkish bath every
week is invaluable.

struction will be given to patients or bathers

ON KEEPING ACCOUNTS.
The Uninltiated Taught How to Keep
Track of Their Money.
The woman whose p1ice is above ru-
b1es,whose husband rises up and calls
”w here
her money goes.” She keeps an account
book.
Most women, by the way, keep account
books. They have Russian leather vol-
umes three inches by two and a half;gilt—
edged and bearing in gilt letters the
legend “Accounts.” .They usually re-
ceive these little gifts at Christmas, and i
for the next three weeks they make sun-
dry unintelligible jottiugs in them. But
that is not the Sort of account book the
prudent business woman or the thrifty
housewife keeps.
The regulation account book makes no
boast of beauty. It has stiif board cov-
ers, is about ten inches long by eight
inches broad, and is provided with ruled
pages. These pages are not only ruled
across, but at each side they have two
vertical lines ruled, making two one—inch
spaces at each edge of each page. I11
these spaces dates and dollars and cents
may be kept neatly.
The left hand page is devoted to in-
come, and the right to expenditures. The
date on which a sum of money is re-
ceived, the person or source from which
it is received and the amount are entered
in a straight line on the lefbhand side.
On the opposite side the date of any ex-
penditure, the thingr for which money
has been expended and the amount spent
are entered. At stated times the i11—
come and the outgo are balanced. Once
a week or once a month is a convenient
time.

count book of an ordinary woman—Miss
