What the Kidneys Do!
Their Unceasing Work k cps 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 left in
the blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms pain in the back,
headache, nervousness hot dry skin,
rheumatism. govt, gravel, disorder of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness, irregu-
lar heart, debility, drowsiness, dropsy,
deposits in the urine, etc. But if you
keep the filters right you will have no
trouble with the kidneys.

Sultan Must Pay for Losses Sustained
by Mining Company

Following the announcement that
Italy is going to send big
teet to Turkish waters to force the
sultan to comply with the treaty
between the countries comes the state
ment that France has demanded from
the porte $500 for every days delay
in setting the French Heraclea Min
ing company's claim.
In addition to the daily penalty
France has informed the sultan that
he must pay $2,SOO,OOO for losses al
ready sustained The situation is re.
garded as acute, and it is not unlike
ly that while Italian warships are
making a demonstration in one Turk
ish port a French squadron will be do
ing the same thing in another.
1t is believed that two such demon
strations going on at the same time
will have the effect of bringing the
sultan TO a quick settlement of the
troubles and that he will be glad to &C.
cede to the demand of both powers.

most certain you have before you one

practical and fond of whatever is use

Man; High Handed Acts.
Considerable irritation has been felt
here also over the murder Of an
Italian missionary in Tripoli and the
persecution by the Ottoman autho:i
ties Of natives who have sold land to
Italians. For years the Italian gov
eminent has felt that Turkey has been
taking advantage of the international
situation to act in a high-handed man
ner towards Italians. This govern
ment. it is stated, has been indulgent,
not wishing to cause complications
which might endanger the accord OF
the powers.
There also has been much opposi-
ton by Turkey to all peaceful Italian
initiative in Tripoli. Matters reached
climax when ITALY asked for per-
mission to open postoffices in Turkish
territory and met with what is con-
sidered an unjustifiable refusal. Italy
considers she is entitled to claim the
privilege, according to treaties grant
ing her the most favored nation treat
ment.
Thought Italy Would Agree.
Turkey came to the conclusion that
the Italian government would never
resort to extreme measures, in view
Of the fact that the Macedonian prob
lem is pending. for settlement of
which the accord of the powers is in
dispensable. The sultan even ordered
detachments of troops to guard the
Italian postoffices, and thus prevent
the work from being carried on.
The Italian administration felt that
it could only reply with coercive meas
1lres in order to protect the dignity Of
Italy and safeguard her rights italy
has announced that she does not wish
to take advantage Of the situation for
the purpose of occupying any terri
tory.
