WOMEN' Sl'KliEONS IN WAR
The most sstrikii:«r tetimony so
far furnished o£ women's active
pai^lopa'ion in way work is the
announcement tiiat more thnn fifty
women physicians and surgeons
will soon leave for France under
the auspices of 'he American Wo
men's Hospital association. Thou
sands of uurses ;'t.d thousands of
women workers have crossed the
Atlantic to do war service, and mil
lions of women home have been
en^rgeMcally koittiug and making
hospital supplies. But the de
parture of this number of women
i»racticlntr physicians to the front
is a notable thing: both in the his
tory of war and the history of
medicine.
Middle-aged people can remem
ber when the very question of wo
man's capacity Cor medical practice
was disputed. There are now
some 6000 wome., in the^ United
States who have proved theij- ability
and 2000 have joined the Medical
Women's National association from
whose membership this contingent
of fifty women dottors lias bee:i
recruited for service abroad. Their
special ». '-n is to establish a
chain of hospitals and clinics in
Prance to be conducted by women
■ urgeons. dentists, bacteriologosts
and nurses to the entire exclusion
ct men. It is a mission through
which American womanhood may be
enabled to serve the stricken, wo
«uhood of France.—Ex.

A THOROUGH
TEST
OJie To Convince the Most Skeptical
Skagwav Read*!".
The 'est of time is the test that
cfltunts.
Doan's Kidney Pills have made
their reputation by effective action.
The following case is typical.
Skagway j residents should be
convinced.
Testimony like this cannot be is*
nored.
Mrs. Ellen Watson, 405 E. Thir
tieth St., Taeoma, Wash, says:
"After an operation and being in the
hospital three months my kidneys
were weak. My back was lame and
there wfts a heavy dull ache across
my loins. My kidneys sometimes
aoted too frequently and sometimes
not often enough and bladder
tj o«ud]0 caused me a great deal of
distress. Doan's Kidney Pills re
lieved me of all that trouble."
(Statement given November 4.
1915.) I
On May 23, 1917 Mrs. Watson
said: "1 can never say enough In
praise of Doan's Kidney Pills. They
cured me of kidney complaint, and
the cure has lasted."
Price 60c, at au dealers. Don't
s'roply ask for a kidney remedy*—
get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
that Mrs. Watson, had. Foster-Mil
