The new biplane will have
three blade tractor screw ir
front, instead of a propeller a.
the rear in order that the aviator
can see the motor and other ma
chinery in front of him. The
passenger seat is in front of the
aviator. The guidance of the
machine will be by method OF
turning the steering wheel in
stead of lateral motions of the
body. In bad air currents he
believes he can move the Wheel
more quickly than he can his
body.
The new auto truck which
Longren has constructed will
make it possible for him to make
more flying trips than during
either of the other two seasons
He can load the biplane in the
truck in Is minutes, after de
tsching the wings and tail piece.
In 40 minutes he can set up the
machine ready for flying. This
method will make it possible to
travel from one town to another
in Q much shorter time than by
loading the machine on fat car.
The prospects for . busy flying

The initial fight in the new

Conscious of the many little
unforeseen dangers of air gliding,

is building human genius into
every part of the new machine.
His numerous flights through
shifting, treacherous air currents
have taught him lessons of eau
ton and prudence.

Longren is one of the most

been proved by the fact that he
has been flying for three years
without serious mishap. He
has studied every detail of the
science and has observed the
mistakes of his predecessors.

IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY
KIDNEYS
Readers Should Learn to Keep
the Kidneys Well.

Readers Should Learn to Keep
the Kidneys Well.
The kidneys have big work to do.
All the blood in the body is coursing
through the kidneys constantly to be
freed of poisonous matter. It is a
heavy enough task when the kidneys
are well, but cold, chill, fever or
some thoughtless exposure is likely
to irritate, inflame and congest the
kidneys and interrupt the purifying
work.
Then the aching frequently begins
and is often accompanied by some ir-
! regularity of the urine-too frequent
passages, sediment or retention.
Thousands testify to the wonderful
merit of Doan's Kidney Pills, a reme-
dy for the kidneys only, that has
been used in kidney troubles so years.
You will make no mistake in follow
ing this Butler citizens advice.
Asa Morgan, Butler, Mo. says:
''Doan's Kidney Pills are an excellent
remedy for pains and weakness in
the back and trouble with the kidney
secretions. This preparation has
been used in my family, being pro-
cured at Gays Drug Store, and as
know what it can do, l do not hesi-
tate to endorse it."

Through agitation and much mis-

The Same Old Story

Butte has a Socialist mayor and
five Socialist councilmen, and the So.
cialistic system Of recall is to be
put into effect because the mayor and
councilmen are Objectionable to a
certain faction of the party. In a
New York municipality a. Socialist
mayor is in some ill-repute because
of lingering individualistic fondness
for his salary. 1t is the same old
story, no matter what the party name
may be.
It is no more possible to please all
the people all the time than it is,
as Lincoln said, to deceive all the
people all the time. In fact, it Is
probably easier to carry on the bust
ness of deception than it is that Of
satisfaction. People are more east

Mythical Tariff Blessings

Most OF the laborers engaged in
steelmalling work twelve hours a day
A committee appointed by the stock
holders Of the Steel Corporation,
headed by Stuyvesant Fish, pointed
out the eXhausting effects OF twelve
hours daily labor in a steel mill, but
at the recent annual meeting a reso-
luton loking TO the elimination OF
the twelve-hour day was tabled.
The average earnings of laborers
engaged in producing iron and steel
are twenty-five and a third cents an
hour, or about sixteen dollars a week
when fully employed for twelve hours
day AT the same rate for an eight
hour DAY the men would earn only
ten dollars and seventy-tWo cents q
week-and they could not live on that.
On the other hand. the Steel Corpora
ton saws it cannot pay the same
daily wage for eight hours Of work
or even for ten, as it now pays for
twelve.
Volume three OF the Governments
investigation of the steel industry
was recently published. 1t shows that
in the production of pig iron labor
constitutes only six and four-tenths OF
per cent of the total cost; for the
principal products of the steel mills
it constitutes only seventeen and one
tenth per cent of the total cost. Con-
sequenty if labor were paid the same
amount for an eight-hour day that it
now receives for twelve-hOur day
the total cost of producing pig iron
would be increased only two and six
tenths per cent and the total cost OF
producing the principal steel products
would be increased only six per cent
Moreover, the English blast fur
naces, under absolute free trade, the
eight-hour day has been generally in
troduced; and employers find that it
increases the efficiency of labor suffi-
GENTLY to overcome the increased la
Dor cost.
What benefit do our iron and steel
workers actually get from a protec-
tive TARIFF Saturday Evening Post.
