VERDUN SITUATION QUIET
A. P. A. Service.
PARIS, April 26.—The army
headquarters report this evening
states the fighting along the Ver
dun front has diminished to -de
sultory skirmishes of no practical
military value. Both sides are
apparently worn out by the long
struggle and are taking a rest
while recouping their strength for
later activities. Aviator’s reports
indicate that the German are very
active behind their lines and all
indications point to a renewal of
the offensive. The Teutons are
reported engaged in laying addi
tional railroad tracks in the
Woevres section, tl is thought
that this may indicate an inten
tion to divert the line of attack
farther to the cast.

Mrs. Alonzo Stevens, 3220
Broadway Everett, Wash., says:
“I had a terible heavy pain across
the smau of my back and 1 was
unable to rest nights on account
of the pains through my loins.
Often, when I straightened after
stooping, sharp pains darted
through me- I was extremely
nervous and was bothered by ir
regular action of my kidneys. I
doctored, but got no permanent
relief, and finally I decided to try
Doan’s Kidney Pills. After I
had used several boxes, these ail
ments left me and now I am in
good health.”

smply ask for a kidney remedy—
