WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about 500
grains Of impure matter daily, when
unhealthy some part OF this impure
matter is LETT in the blood This
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms-pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheuma-
tism, govt, gravel, disorders of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness, If
regular heart, debility drowsiness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But
if you keep the filters right you will
have no trouble with your kidneys.
Mrs. D. B. Perky, of Lincoln street,
says Il had kidney complaint for
nearly ten years, but not so bad until
recently. Three years ago had
black measles, and every body, as well
as myself, thought I was going to die.

neys were in a horrible state. My
back began to ache, and soon got so
bad that I could not attend 70 my
work. When rising from chair I
had to place my hand on my hips
and get up gradually; and when on
my feet | had TO stand in a stopped
position for some time before | could

Won Zeppelin
And His Airship
BIGGEST DirigIhie Balloon Ever Constructed
and Successfully Used - Sixteen Sep
arate Envelopes For Gas-Carles
Nine People With Ease.

"HE biggest airship that ever
scared into the empyrean II
Count Won Zeppein's latest
model, which recently made
two successful trial trips In German
atmosphere. This vessel is as big as al
ocean steamship and speedier than the
average Of such craft. She can sal
from eighteen to thirty miles an hour
The length OF the vessel is 400 feet ano
the diameter about fort feet. She car
ries two Daimler motors of eighty-fve
horsepower each, by far the greatest
horsepower ever applied TO an airship
The hydrogen gas supply that buoX
her up is calculated TO last for 10
hours. Thus If conditions are favora
bic this ship may fly five days, or long
enough to cross the ocean from Liver
pool TO New York, at the speed OF
fast steamship.
In the construction of this ship Count
Won Zeppelin followed his former plan
of inclosing his gas bags in a long
cylinder of aluminium plates, each bag
or balloon in It's separate compart
ment, independent Of all the others.
There are sixteen Of these balloons in
the 430 foot cylinder. If one should be
come punctured and collapse the 9th

Of the balloons, IN fact, might be. put
out of commission without making the
airship useless. This is what may be
called an armored cruiser of the air,
the armor being the aluminium plates

for use in warfare and is therefore q,

The old count. now In his sixty-nintb
year, is undoubtedly the boldest and
most persistent expermenter in aerial
navigation now living. His expert

scale. He has spent his own private

How 10 Break Up a Cold.

II may be surprise to many to learn
that severe cold can be completely
broken up in one or two days time To
do this, however, prompt action isneces-
sary. The first symptoms OF cold are
dry loud cough, a profuse watery dis
charge from the nose, and thin white
coating on the tongue. When Cham
berlain's cough remedy is taken every
hour on the FIRST appearance of these
symptoms, it counieracis the effect of
the cold and restores the system To a
healthy condition within day on two.
