Winter Chills
Breed Kidney Ills
Chilly, damp, changing weather is hard on the kidneys.
Even more irritating are colds, grip, pneumonia, tonsilitis,
quinsy and other infections. The kidneys get congested
and inflamed, and this causes backache and disordered kid
ney action. Though serious in its latter stages, kidney dis
ease is not hard to conquer if a good kidney remedy is
used when the first signs of kidney trouble are noticed.
The best recommended kidney remedy in the world is
Doan f s Kidney Pills. You hear it everywhere. Get a box.

CONTROVERSY ON
YACHT FEATRRE
Announcement That Sir Thom
as Lipton s Cup Challenger
Would Have Centerboard,
Causes No Little Comment.
N#w York. Announcement that HIV
Thomas Upton* cup challenger
Shamrock IV would bs equipped with
a centerboard has renewed th* old
controversy as to whether that feature
of the modern yacht was an American
or European Invention. An English
authority summarizes as follows:
"The centerboard was Invented or
rather adapted, from some form of lee
board by (’apt. Hchank of the British
navy some time prior to 1771 Per
haps It Is because Captain Hchank
built a centerboard boat at Boston.
Mass, In 1771 for Earl Percy, after
wards Duke of Northcumberland, that
ths centerboard has come to be regard
ed as an American Invention. The il
lustration of this boat is the oldest
authentic record of the sliding keel.
The sliding or lifting keel, or center
board which Captain Hchank fitted to
Earl Percy's boat was a long rectangu
lar hoard which extended for about
three-quarters of the length of the
keel of the boat. In 1789 Captain
Hchank Induced the admiralty to build
a centerboard boat, or rather a small
centerboard vessel, for she was a cut
ter 60 feet long of 20 feet beatm a tiff
six feet six inches draught of water.
This craft was called the Trial. In
stead of having one long board like the
first boat built at Roston she had three
centerboards, one amidships and one
at each end.
Popular in America.
The centerboard which many years
afterward became popular in America,
and which. It Is truq has been much
more closely associated with American
yachting than British, was not shaped
like Schank's Invention hut van tri
angular below the water —that Is to
say, stead of dropping equally fore and
aft the board was pivoted to the fore
end through the keel and the after end
only was dropped, so that when the
hoard was down It formed a triangle
below water. This, then, Is the so
called American centerboard. It was
not however Invented by an American
hut like the first centerboard, was the
Invention of a Rrltlsh naval officer.
“Paptain Shuldham, R. N., invented
this centerboard In 1809 whilst he was
a prisoner of war at Verdun, a fortress
on the northeast frontier of France on
the River Meuse. Captain Shuldham
made a model of his centerboard while
In prison and fitted It to a model boat
which he also constructed and the
plate was made of lead, which, of
course, for the period was really ex
traordinary. It scarcely differs from
the centerboards of the present day.
The Shamrock centerboard therefore
can hardly claim to owe Its orlign to
trans-Atlantic naval architecture.’’
After Shuldham.
“After Shuldhajn’s invention in 1808
not much was done in the construction
of centerboard boats for thirty or forty
years but between 1840 and 1850 the
Americans began building fast center
board sloops, capslzable boats with
BROAD ST.
Mr*. Walter Harmon. 124* Broad
Street. Augusta, *ays: "I had been
having a lot of trouble with my
back, and often It gave out com
pletely. I couldn't even wash the
dishes or tidy the house, 1 was so
miserable. The pain bothered me at
night and kept me awake a great
deal. I often had dlxxy spells, and
sometime* my sight was affected.
I had read a lot about Doan's Kid
ney Pills being a good kidney rem
edy. and I got some from Frost's
Pharmacy. I could tell that they
were helping me right away, and I
was soon rid of the aliments. Those
who need a good kidney medicine
should certainly take Doan's Kid
ney Pills.”
Spring Is Breaking;
Backs Are Aching
Backache is often the first sign of some form of kid
ney disease that has been coming on for months. Look
for the other signs;—lame back, sharp pains when stooping
or lifting, dizzy spells, nervousness or despondency, with
irregular, painful or distressing action of the kidneys; if these
signs exist, decide that the kidneys need attention, ere the
trouble turns to gravel, dropsy or Brights disease.
Read this home testimony and then give Doan's Kid
ney Pills a trial.
AUGUSTA S CASES SELF-TOLD
GLOVER ST.
John C. Smith, 1435 Qlover
Street, Augusta, says: “I am
fully satisfied that there Is no
other remedy on the market today
as good as Doan's Kidney Pills
for kidney complaint. 1 had this
trouble for a long time, and It
looked as if I was never going to
get anything that would .cure me.
I happened to hear of Doan's Kid
ney Pills, and three boxes com
pletely rid me of the ailments. I
have never had any trouble since.”
RUGHR FINE FOR
WEAN KIDNEYS
Mixed With Juniper Is Old
Folks’ Recipe for Ologged
Kidneys and Backache.
Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally.
{ else we have backnrhe and dull misers
in the kidney region, severe head
aches. rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, arid stomaefl, sleeplessness and
all sort* of bladder disorders, dizzy
spells*spots before the eyes, frequent
desire to urinate.
To avoid above troubles you simply
must keep your kidneys active and
clean, and tne moment you feel any
of the above symptoms, get a good
sized bottle of Stuart’s Bucbu and
Juniper Compound from any good
drug store, take a tablespoonful In a
glass of water after meals. Stop
<ating sweets or sugar. In a few
days and your kidneys will then act
fine and r.’at :rnl. Stuart’s Huehu and
Juniper Is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to nor
mal activity. It also neutralize* the
acids In the urine so It no longer
hurts to pass wafer, thus ending blad
der disorders \
Everybody should take Stuart’s Bu
ehu and Junlrer now and then to
keep their kidneys clean. Be sure
you get Stuart’s Buchu and Juniper.
Very shallow draught and when in 1851
the great victory of the schooner Am
erica at Cowes —she was not a center
board yacht but a model of a New York
pilot boat attracted the attention ot
English yachtsmen to the speed of the
Yankee designs, the centerboard,
which by that time had become popu
lar In America, was talked about in
England.
’’’The subsequent history of center
board craft is fairly- well known As a
type the centerboard in the United
States has always been more favored
than in British waters.”
NOT SPOONING TO SIT IN
GIRL’S LAP, JURY HINTS.
Norristown, Pa. —Sitting on a girl’s
lap is no sign that a young man Is
"spooning," especially If he Is wearing
white trousers and fears to soil them
by sitting elsewhere. Such appears to
he the substance of a verdict rendered
by a jury here today.
In Pennsburg, Policeman Harvey R.
wood a few months ago came across
two young girls sitting on the curb
along the main street. In the lap of
one sat a young man. On being in
formed that "spooning" was not al
lowed and that they would have to
move on, they informed the policeman
that they were not spooning, that the
young man was sitting on the girl’s
lap to avoid soiling his Immaculate
white trousers.
According to the policeman, they
told him that if he was tired he might
sit on the other girl's lap. When he
attempted to accept the Invitation, he
was repulsed, ftnd, it is charged,
treated the girl roughly, hence
his prosecution for assault and battery.
The Jury found him guilty, but recom
mended him to the mercy of the court.
