All too often women accept their pains and aches as natural to their sex. They fail to realize that weak kidneys are often to blame for that backache, those headaches, dizzy spells and that tired, depressed feel ing. Thousands have found new health and strength by helping the weakened kidneys with Doan’s Pills —-a stimulant diuretic. This Hart well case is one of many: Mrs. C. B. Graham, Jackson St., says: “My back was so weak I could hardly stoop or straighten, and I had a great deal of pain in the small of it. My kidneys acted irregularly, and my feet and ankles swelled. I had headache and became nervous. I It was about all I could do to get I around the house to do my work, I bought Doan’s Pills at Herndon’s Drug Store and in a short time I was relieved.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mrs. Graham had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. Mrs. Sara Vickery Mrs. Sara C.

The life of ev’ry party, who Can always answer ev’ryone, Dares do what anyone will do, Who sings when all the rest are dumb, And —well, the girl who makes things hum? Young man —I want to ask you, sir— She’s great, but would you marry her? Life’s rather serious and sad. It has Its problems, has its woe, And more defeats a man has had Than victories in life, I know; And then a man will need a mate Still undiscouraged, what his fate, Who walks beside him the hill And bravely takes the good or ill. A wife, it always seems to me, Should have some depth of char acter ; Whatever need his need may be. A husband ought to find in her. Faith, courage, judgment, tenderness. That is the sort of wife to bless. The best of wives for both their aalree- — And that’s the .kind rite glad girl makes. (© by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) O (7* T (Among the IyOTABLES JOSEPH LEIDY JOSEPH LETDY was one of the fore most naturalists of America, the more remarkable because he was self taught. Practically every bit of his wonderful !•: w ledge of plants and minerals ; nimnls, he acquired himself wi.in ~i the aid of » teacher. He whs born September 9, 1823, in Philadelphia. It seems that he had quite a talent for drawing and might, had he followed his first ambition, have become a well-known artist. At six teen he left school and took u position as a drug clerk. While lie was not waiting on customers, he began study ing botany and mineralogy and com parative biology and such things and learning so rapidly that he was admit ted to III* University if Pennsylvania and took his degree as a medical doc tor when he was only twenty-one. He went abroad and came to notice, first, by his studies of terrestrial gus teropolds. which, translated into every day language, is the form of animal life that crawls on its stomach. He made soma valuable additions to sci ence by his work on fossil horses and was the only American author to work on extinct vertebrata. According to recent professors, his most Important paleontological contri bution to the knowledge of the world was a paper on some vertebrate re mains discovered In the phosphate beds of South Carolina. In spite of the dry ns-dust sound of his work, his re searches led him Into many Interest ing and romantic discoveries of dead forms of life. He died In 1891. (© by Georfe Matthew Adame.) U? HO SAID “Generosity is the flower of justice.” =» c=-l THESE words of Nathaniel Haw thorne have a striking resemblance to that famous speech delivered by Portia in the court scene in "The Mer chant of Venice.” Portia is asking Shylock to be mer ciful, and when he asks why, she re plies : Ths quality of mercy i» not strain'd. It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath; . . . And earthly power doth then show llkest God's When mercy seasons justice . • • Nathaniel Hawthorne, one of the leading American literary figures, was born In Salem, Mass., July 4, 1804. He received his education In Bowdoln col lege and graduated from that Institu tion in 1825. His literary work is the result of the most careful study. Following his graduation from college he lived a life of retirement and devoted much time to writing tales and sketches. Few of these suited him and the majority of them were - consigned to the fire. The survivors appeared in the maga zines and newspapers of the day. Hawthorne’s romance “Fanshawe” was published anonymously in 1832, and In 1837 his "Twice-told Tales” ap peared In book form. . This work re ceived Its title from the fact that It was a collection of articles that had previously been published In periodi cals, and thus was literally being “told" for the second time. Hawthorne's political offices con sisted of being the customs officer of the port of Boston; surveyor of the port of Salem; and American consul to Liverpool—*n appointment he re ceived from his old college chum, President Franklin Pierce. Some of the best known works of this author are, “Mosses from an Old Manse,” "House of Seven Gables,” and “The Scarlet Letter.” Hawthorne died at Plymouth, N. H., May 18, 1864.—Wayne D.

We regret that we cannot extend credit for The Sun. Paper must be paid for with cash, and we must insist on all our kind readers renewing in ad vance. Mrs. J. M. Barton, of Pine Log, Ga., is visiting her son, Rev. J. 11. Barton, and family, at the Methodist parsonage. Dr. Owen Meredith’s many friends are glad to see him out again. Rev. J. H. Nichols will leave next week for Virginia to spend two weeks with relatives and friends. In arranging and thinking of now legislation for 1925 we hope that our legislature will give to our State Board of Health most liberally. The early diagnosis of all diseases Is most desirable, but this Is especial ly so of tuberculosis. All children who are not growing, who ”’r» not develop ing, should be • > n< I for hook worm and tuber< t.10.-.s No one should ever for a moment consider consulting an advertising doctor; good, reliable physicians do not advertise. Consult in Illness your family doctor; he is your friend, and If need be he will refer you to a spe cialist. The privilege of living In a commu nity where the public health, safety and comfort are properly looked after and safeguarded, carries with It also the responsibility of doing your full share towards maintaining such con dltlons. THE HEALTHMOBILE. The State Board of Health, through the co-operation of the Phi Mu Soror ity and the various communities, has been enabled to put the Healthmobile back in service. The pity is that we cannot have several of them In the field all the time. There fa plenty of work for it to do; the need Is in all parts of Georgia. The unit consists of a truck fitted up as a complete physician’s office; It has electric lights, fans, sterilizers, moving picture machine, running water and a complete set of diagnos tic Instruments. It is In charge of Dr. Alice Mora, of Columbus, Ga., a nurse, Miss Beulah Fort, of Dublin, and a chauffeur, of Adairsville. They are now in the territory between Ma con and Albany. They "work” the counties as they come to them; each community Is "worked" by a nurse as advance agent. When all contacts are made the local community takes the responsibility of arranging the pub licity, making plans for the various communities an places that the Doc tor visits One day is allowed in each county for each 3,000 population. Dr. Moses examines only children under 7 years of age, mothers and expectant mothers, the most Impor tant of all the preventive work. Boon It is hoped that every one will come to realize that physical defects can often be prevented by proper atten tion to the Infant; at least, they should be corrected early; no child should be permitted to enter school with a physical handicap that will be a hindrance to the child and an extra expense to the State. Dr. Moses is doing her best to find these defects and to encourage the parents to get them corrected. We need a dozen Dr. Moses’, one In each congressional dis trict, doing this work from day to day. The cost to our educational system in repeaters alone, due to the physi cal handicaps of tonsils, teeth, eyes and ears, la more than SIOO,OOO per year. If tbls money were put in cor rective measures, how much more sensible, how much more common sense we would show. From our ac tlons we much prefer to neglect the child, let it suffer, let it stumble along through life and pay and pay and pay. A business organization would not suf fer or for a mom<-nt permit such a loss. The HeaJtbmobile is a unit of edu cation Every evening, Sunday except ed, lectures are given and moving pic tures are put on, even in the most remote districts, as the machine car ries its own electric power Pamphlets are distributed and personal advice is given. The State Board of Health should be encouraged in every way possible by our people. The people should in terest their representatives to the Gen eral Assembly and secure sufficient funds to give constructive service to each and every community.

CARD OF THANKS - * We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for their kindness during the death of our son and brother, Tom Crow. May God’s richest blessings rest upon each of you. MRS. W. P. CROW AND FAMILY. o Small Water Creature It Oddity of Nature The little creature called the lunch lot Is* slender and pointed at both end* and not very easy to see, since it la almost transparent and is ‘only from an Inch and a half to two and a half inches iu length. It lives in shallow water and llkea to stick Its head end Into the sand. Into which it burrows with great rapidity. It remains thus for a long time with Its tall sticking out. When on the surface of the water it Iles on its side. While It can neither see nor bear, there Is reason for believing that It possesses the sense of smell and taste. Its egs are laid about sunset and the larvae hatch out early the next morn ing. The lanceiot has no head. More over, It has neither legs nor pairs of fins It has a mouth, however, placed at one end, which, therefore, may be called the head end of the body. It has a stomach, a very simple form of liver and another simple or gan which takes the place of a heart, since It Is capable of contracting and thus forcing lhe blood, which Is quite colorless, forward to Uie area of the gills, where It Is purified.—Review of Reviews. Evolution of Horse Proved by Skeletor ? Hclentlsts of a recent geological ex pedltlon sent to Texas by the Ameri can Museum of Natural History (New York) have discovered In rocks more than 1,000,000 years old the fossil skel eton of a horse In one of Its ancestral stages of evolution. In the evolution of the horse the newly found specimen represents an Intermediate stage between the type called Pllohlppus and the early Ice-age horse called Equus. It Is smaller than the modern horse. While yie fpssU horse discovered Is almost the Earliest one-toed horse, lorqj before the day of Pllohlppus there bad existed quite a» number of more primitive or less evolved forms of the horse. For example, if we go back to the Eocene epoch, when the ancestor of the horse was no larger than a cat. we discover that he had four toes on his fore feet and three on his hind feet. The subsequent evolution of the horse Is most clearly marked by the gradual loss of all of these toes, ex cept the single toe on which our mod ern horses walk. Fisherman’* Luck. The fisherman was sittiing on a sea* in iront of his door mending nets, when a friend came up and said; “That’s a bad thing that’s happen ed to you.” “What’s that?” queried the fisher man. “Your wife running away and leav ing you.” “A worse thing’s happened since then,” was the reply. “What’s that?” asked the friend. “She’s come back!” o The United States imported more ♦han 2.000,000 pairs of leather gloves last year.
