Exaotness In Keeping Tab on tho
Movements of Soldiers.
We hear much of the perfection of
military organization abroad. but it Is
doubtful whether any foreign war Of
fee follows with an accuracy greater
than that displayed by our own war
department the movements of It's Of
flcers. The following Is an interesting
case in point:
A young army officer who has seen
service in this country and in the east
was once with II scouting party In Ari-
zona. After two weeks In the desert
his squad came to the railway near n
small station. Within ten minutes n
telegram from Washington was
brought TO him by the station agent.
1t asked If the officer wished to be
transferred to one of the new artillery
regiments then forming.
He answered by telegraph that he
would he glad to enter either of them.
Then with his squad he set Oh again
across the desert.
II was six days later when they
again struck the railway, this time
eighty miles from the point ut which
they had previously crossed it. but the
officers reply from the war depart
mcnt was awaiting him. 1t had been
telegraphcd TO every station within
200 miles.
A more striking instance of accuracy
occurred after the same officers trans
fer to the east. He was travelling
home on leave. and. as the regulations
require, he had notified the department
of the day. hour and probable route
of his journey. After he had been or
the train for eight hours mt IL small
station the porter entered with tcic

was present. On opening the tclc

Needful Knowledge
Calumet People Should Learn to De-
tect the Approach Of Kidney
Disease.

The symptoms of kidney trouble
are so unmistakable that they leave
no ground for doubt. Sick kidneys ex-
crete a thick, cloudy, offensive urine,
full of sediment, irregular of pas
sage or attended by a sensation of
scalding. The back aches constant
ly, headaches and dizzy spells may oc-
cur and the victim is often weighed
down by a feeling of languor and fa-
tigue. Neglect these warnings and
there is danger of dropsy, Brights
disease, or diabetes. Any one of
these symptoms is warning enough
to begin treating the kidneys at once.
Delay often proves fatal.
You can use no better remedy than
Doan's Kidney Pills. Here's Calumet
proof:

met, Mich, says:

"THE sPENDTHRlFT."
Great Play Will Be Presented at CAL
unet Theatre April q.

The most emphatic success of the
Emerson Brownies new play, "The
Spendthrift", which Frederic Thomp-
son will present at the Calumet theatre
on April A.
"The Spendthrift" in its conception
and execution is entirely different from
"A Fool There Was. which play first
brought Porter Emerson Browne into
prominence as a playwright. 1t deals
with the frivolous extravaganza of a
luxury loving wife, and the financial
ruin achieved by the husband in his
efforts to crafty her extravagant
whims. When he realizes the direful
pass to which their mode Of life has
brought them. he demands of his wife
the sacrifices that are necessary, pre-
pairing, at the same time, to make
them himself. The wife's life has been
too easy-she has not sufficient stamina
to face comparative poverty-and with
the idea of relieving their monetary
distress she borrows a large sum from
a.
the inevitable climax which Is in turn
followed by an entire readiustment of
the family relations, producing a con-
dition more nearly approximating hap
piness than any that has heretofore
been obtained i'm the household.
The play is i'm four acts, the first
three showing the lavishly furnished
and tastefully decorated interiors of
well-to-do New York brokers' home
the last an attic room in a lower East
Side tenement house. The company
was especially engaged by Mr.. Thomp-
son for the present tour, with view

GARBAGE PILES
ARE DANGEROUS
SPECIAL SANITARY PREcAU-
TlONS SHOULD BE TAKEN I'M
SPRING TO PROTECT
PUBLIC HEALTH.

Special precautions should be taxi
on at this time OF the year to protect
the public health" said a well known
Calumet physician this morning. AL
though garbage and ashes are remov-
ed as rapidly as they accumulate dur
ing the winter as well as the summer
months i'm Calumet, there is more or
| less miscellaneous refuse and filth,
which each individual resident should
collect and have removed from his
premises, this matter being a private
rather than public duty"
'In exposed places, the snow has
already melted awav from these un-
siEhtly piles and everyone should see
to il that they are removed at the ear
lest possible moment. AS soon as it
gets warm enough for flies and other
insects these piles of decaying filth
! become menace to health and a
breeder of typhoid and numerous
| other diseases. Long before that
time, they frequently are a stencil to
the nostrils and an eycsore to all who
take pride in beautiful Calumet
Another disease breeder at this
season of the year deserves mention.
1t is the filth that appears on the
streets with the melting away of the
snow. There seems to be no way of
preventing the streets being i'm a
wretchedly filthy condition at this
season of the year, and until the dirt
is washed away by a heavy rain, peo-
pie cannot be too careful.
"The greatest danger is when the
streets begin to- get dry in places so
that dust is blown about. This dust
is reeking with disease germs of al
most every kind and when inhaled Of
ten results in pulmonary ard other
serious ailments, among those whose
constitutions are not strong enough
to throw off the poisonous germs in
hailed. Good health is a great asset in
the spring, when there is really more
opportunity for contracting diseases
than at almost any other time Of the
year 1t behooves everyone TO use
the greatest possible precautions anC
to keep his premises neat and clean
both for the sake of his own health
and that of his neighbors
