BACKACHE IS DISCOURAGING
But Not So Bad If You Know How
to Reach the Cause.
Nothing more discouraging than a
constant backache. Lame when you
awaken, paint pierce you when you
bond or lift. It’s hard to work or to
rest. Backache often indicates bad
kidneys. La Grange people recom-
mend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Ask your
neighbor!
Mrs. M. Bordovsky, Washington
St, La Grange, says: “I have been
bothered a great deal with kidney
complaint. Shooting pains in my
side and a dull ache in the small of
my back have made me miserable.
Nights and mornings my back hurt
so that I wat lame. I take Doan's
Kidney Pills when 1 get these spells
and I have found them the best med-
icine I can use, Doan’s Kidney Pills
have- always given me the best of
results.”

HOBS CALOMEL OF
NAUSEA AND DANGER
Medical Virtues Retained, and Im-
proved- Dangerous and Sickening
Qualities Removed. Perfected Tab-
let Called “Calotabs.”
The largest triumph of modern
science is a “de-nauscated” calornal
tablet known to the drug trade as
Calotabs.” Calomel, most general-
ly useful of all medicines thus enters
upon a wider field of popularity—puri-
fied and refined from those objection-
able qualities which have heretofore
limited its use.
In biliousness, constipation, head-
aches and indigestion, and in a great
variety of liver, stomach and kidney
troubles, calornal was the most suc-
cessful remedy, but its use was often
neglected on account of its sickening
qualities. Now it is the easient and
most pleasant of medicine to take. One
Calotab at bedtime with a swallow of
water—that’s all. No taste, no gri-
ping no nausea, no salts. A good
night's sleep and the next morning
you are feeling fine, with a clean
liver, a purified system and a big ap-
petite. Eat what you please, no dan-
ger.
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents for the large, family package;
ten cents for the small, trial size.
Your druggist is authorized to re>-
fund the price as a guarantee that
you will be thoroughly delighted with
Calotabs.-Adv.

FLAVOR LASTS
LUTHERAN COLLEGE
(Lecture at the American Legion hall,
August 23)
In order to give the good people
of LaGrange and vicinity an oppor-
tunity to get acquainted with our
Lutheran colleges, Rev. A. E. Moebus
has arranged to have a student of
the Lutheran college of Winfield,
Kansas, deliver a lecture, accompanied
by slides, at the Legion hall at 8
o’clock p. m., Thursday, the 23rd of
this month.
Some time ago the announcement
was made through the columns of this
paper that the Missouri Lutheran
Synod is contemplating the erection
of a Lutheran college in Texas. This
now has been definitely decided. The
general body of this synod has ap-
propriated $50,000.00 towards this
end, and expects the Texas district
to contribute the balance; to date
$30,000.00 have been pledged and of
course more is being pledged.
The synod has not worked out all
the details, nor has it decided just
where this college is. to be located.
A college committee will be appointed
in the near future which is to receive
and inspect all bids for this institu-
tion. Many places, both large and
small, are going to make offers for
this institution. Rev. Mopbus, having
the progress of LaGrange, and the
welfare of his church at heart, hopes
to see LaGrange make a successful
bid and the illustrated lecture to be
given at the Legion hall by Mr. C.
Kasper, is to arouse interest for this
undertaking among the homefolks.
St. John’s college at Winfield is the
institution now frequented by thirty
Texas boys, partly preparing for the
ministry, and others taking commer-
cial courses. If a college of the Lu-
theran denomination can attract so
many students from Texas, so many
hundreds of miles away, what would
the enrollment be if the college were
located in the heart of the Lutheran
population? About 200 young men
and ladies are at the Winfield college
at present. Wouldn’t a callege of
such nature be a great asset to La-
Grange? Should we not aril work to-
gether with Rev. Moebus and his con-
gregation and try our best *■'> “land
this college?”
The sixty slides will be shown free
of charge, although at the exit a col
lection will be lifted to help defray
the expenses. Rev. Moebus says:
“I am going to gauge the interest of
the citizenship of LaGrange in this
college proposition by their attend-
ance and either continue or discon-
tinue my efforts accordingly.”
Remember the date, August 23rd;
and the place, the American Legion
hall.

1 he oesky thief is around. He
makes h:s visit at practically every
dance and celebration and if he sees
the coast is clear will take advantage
of same. It is getting so now-a-daya
that n person can’t leave his car
paiked out bf seeing distance to in-
dulge in a few hours of dancing with-
out expecting to find a part of hia
auto m osing when he returns.
At the dance on the Bluff last Fri-
day night, we have learned that three
persons were victims of stolen tire*,
in one instance going as far as to re-
move a tire from the wheel, thus forc-
ing the party to return home on the
. rim. We have also heard of an in-
i stance where the thief went as far
as to remove the foot-boarda from a
] car, evidently having some use for
them. Such persons, when caught,
should be punished to the fullest ex-
tent of thb law.
The following received the rites of
confirmation at the St. Paul Lutheran
church Sunday night: Mr. and Mra.
Hans Wieting, Mrs. A. F. Weber, sr.,
Mrs. Chas. Girndt, Mrs. Edna Morris
and Fred Wolters.
