ELECTRIC LIGHTED INDIAN CLUBS
Blectrk1- lighted Indian (*ibe for ex
hibition purposes are a novelty de
scribed and illustrated in the Sep
tember Popular Mechanics Magazine.
The use of the clubs was the result
of an accident during an evening ex
hibition. At a gymnastic performano
'he lights suddenly went out, and the
electrician declared that It would be
another hour before he could get the
lights on again. The club swinger
happnede to have in his dressing room
a number of electric torches. He
attached them to his chibs. lighted
them and continued his exorcises In
the unlighted room. Apart from sav
ing the situation, the lighted club*
were very popular. Later a means
of lighting the cJubs independently
was worked out.

the A. B. weather vane from the fla/
pole last Saturday. Homer Banta sul
fered a nervous collapse and was un
der the care of the Doctor for thre<
hours, with his life hanging in th<
balance.
Though In no condition to undertaki
such a hazardous task. Mr. Bantf
deemed It his duty to make an at
tempt to get It down. Building t
scaffolding to the top of the pole
sawing off the pole below the van?
and lowering the vane to the ground
as the poJe was swaying in, the wind
and then to come down knocking
out the scaffolding as he proceeded
was extremely dangerous.
Mr. Banta was around for several
hours after he had completed the
job. but aside from a slight dizziness
caused by the weaving of the pole,
was apparently as well as ver. The
collapse c^me suddenly at about nine
o'clock in the evening, and for an
hour and a half very grave fears
were fek for his safety by his many
friends.
By midnight Mr. Banta was asleep
under an opiate and all doubts as to
his recovery were removed. Mr. Ban
ta has since entirely recovered. ?

with backache and headache; suffer
from nervousness, dizziness, weak
* ness, languor and depression. Likely
s the kidneys have fallen behind In their
work of filtering the blood and that Is
the root of the trouble. Look to your
kidneys, assist them in their work ?
give them the help they need. You
can use no better remedy than Doaw's
L Kidney Pills.

opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills, ex

mains unchanged. I can only repeat
: that 1 found them to be an excellent
kidney remedy as well as a tonic
for the entire system. My experi
once with Doan's Kidney PlUs Just!

persons who suffer from a backache
or other troubles, caused by weak
kidneys."
