Thousands upon thousands of wo-
men have kidney or bladder trouble
and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to
be nothing else but kidney trouble, or
the result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other
oragns to become diseased.
You may suffer a great deal with
pain in the back, bearing-down feel
ings, headache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irri-

any one so.
But hundreds of women claim that
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just

is as calm in war as in peace. And that
quality has bred confidence. He has con-
hdence in himself, and has given conf
dence to others. His stan never for a
moment doubts his capacity to win, and
that conviction has percolated through
to the masses OF the troops. It has made
him popular, though he has done nothing
to engender that; on the contrary, he
eschews popularity. He lives apart from
press ''reclame." He does not seek It
and he dislikes 1t. To those who attack
him and to those who defend him he
shows an equal indifference.
But IL he appears to take no notice Of
attacks, he is more the less very open
to ideas, and listens attentively when a
likely plan Is presented him. He knows
how to combine the best in his own and
other peoples projects. But his great
maxim is that in war nothing can be i'm
provised. Every detail must be thought
out; that marks his superiority over
other modern commanders. He. succeeds
because he takes the infinite trouble nee
essary to secure 1t.
His achievement is the formation Of
the general stan. He has brought to-
gether the best military brains In France
and co-ordinated and controlled their ef-
forts A Republican and Freemason, he
is surrounded by men who are Catholic
and disposed to cavil at the present con-
stitution; but it makes no difference in
his appreciation Of them.

a German officer, Capt. Oskar Hoecker:
I'VE had orders to attack French ter

Lille road. \ French aviator signaled

and sought shelter from the storm. Il
would have been suicide to do anything
else.

our batteries. could not protect US. We
crept sixty yards. perhaps 100. The en-
emy's quick-firers were murderous, and
We hadn't a notion where We were 60

pantaloons.

"a storm of bullets swept past our
ears. We blazed back.
Then the word retire 4 few min
utes later we looked around. There were
artillery IN front. and on our right; and

consigned our souls to our Maker and
continued our retreat

Paris, Nov. 2l.-Rene Granger, eighteen,

Joined a regiment in Lorraine. In a few
weeks he was raised TO corporal. One day
the colonel called for n volunteer to carry
stan orders to the different companies.
He did not conceal the fact that the
mission was one Of real danger. Cor
poral Granger volunteered.
The lad reached the first trench in
safety. The next stage of his journey
was over 800 yards, swept by the
enemy's fire. He went down on his
hands and knees and crawled. Within
few yards of the trenches a bullet hit
him in the thigh. He sheltered behind
tree, hastily dressed the wounds. then
dragged himself to the trench.

Stuart's Calcium Waters act directly
upon the sweat glands of the skin, since
their mission is to stimulate the excre-
tory ducts. They do not create perspira-
ton, but cause the skin to breathe out
vigorously, thus Transforming perspIra-
ton into Il gaseous vapor. The calcium
sulphlde OF which these waters are COM
posed consumes the germ poisons in the
sweat glands and pores. hence the blood
makes a new. smooth skin in a surprIs-
ingly short time.
You will never be ashamed to look at

much as TO say-for goodness sake, get

There is no longer any excuse for any
one to have 4 face disfigured with skin

GERMAN GUN CARRIES

Zurich. Nov. H.-The Zurich Post con-
tains the following remarkable descrip-
ton of the German 42-centimeter gun:
'Tt is composed Of three parts. trans
ported on special carrying trucks distinct
from the carriage on which the howitzer
is mounted for firing. The gun proper is
nearly twenty-one meters (sixty-five
feeO in length. 1t travels everywhere on
rails, and twelve axles are required to
carry II.
when 1t arrives at the railway point
nearest the emplacement where it is to
be put into action, the pieces are taken
on these special carriages and advanced
on the road.
THE monster requires for its reassem-
bling and firing a company of servants
which, when marching on the road in
front and behind the gun, occupy a kilo-
meter OF road space. The firing of the
charge in the gun is done by electricity
the firing stud being placed 100 meters
from the weapon. Any one who unhap-
PLY found himself near the howitzer at
the moment Of discharge would lose his
hearing for a long time.
The range Of the 42-centimeter is
about twenty-seven miles-exactly one
third more than the distance between
Calais and Dover. At this distance, it is
true, that the shooting is uncertain and
one can only find out what damage is
caused by aeroplane.

JOFFRE IS MAN
OF MANY SIDES
Commander of French Forces
Compared to Little
Corporal"
A STUDENT OF DETAILS
Every Maneuver of Vast Army Care
fully Planned by Leader-New
War Methods Born.

Bordeaux, Nov. H-Never did the
greatness of Joffre shine more clearly
than in that black hour near the begin
ming of the war when il became neces-
ary TO break the careers of five generals
who had shown weakness in their maneu-
vers. He did not hesitate or compromise.
All of them went.
It has been declared that Joffre is of
the school of Napoleon. This must be
accepted only with the great reservation
that nothing could be further from the
wars Of Napoleon than the great battles
of the Marne and the Aisne.
In themselves these battles do not pre-
sent anything like the tactical examples
Of military skill Of hundred years ago.
And the aeroplane is responsible. It sees
everything from its elevated vantage
point. Thus the art of war has been
robbed of that element Of surprise which
afforded Napoleon dramatic opportunity
for the display of genius His object was
to discover the weak spot in the enemy's
lines, and, having discovered ii, to hurl
upon II all the forces at his command.
His success depended upon the speed and
sureness with which the great blow could
be struck. A premature revelation would
have spoiled all
Surprise Is ImpossibIe.
But a coup Of the sort is no longer pos
sible, for a maneuver on one side is met
instantly by a maneuver on the other.
War now consists in a series of parallel
movements; its art has changed. The
two armies turn about each other like
boxers in the preliminary phases OF a
fight. They pivot clumsily to catch each
other at a disadvantage, and that is prac-
ticalIy all the art OF it.
The rest is a ding-dong battle of re-
sistance, marching and counter-marching.
Anything less like Napoleon's way Of
making war IL would be difficult to i'm
agine. 1t is like playing bridge with your
opponent looking over your shoulder.
All the conditions of warfare have
changed, and with them the mentality
and methods of commanders. Joffre is
rarely seen on horseback. He spends a
part of each day in a long, low, rapid
motor car visiting the lines. It is i'm
possible to visit all the pOints-much must
be left to the corps commander after the
general plan is settled; this robs a gen.
craIissimo of personal contact with his
troops; he is more or less unknown to
them, and Joffre probably has to show
papers to his sentries. He wears out two
chauffeurs a day in his rush from point
to point.
But beyond that Joffre must hold the
wires in this tremendous system. You
have TO imagine him passing long hours
in an unpretentious room with a re-
ceiver to his ear. His assistant generals
bend over maps "a examine attentively
the lay of country; but Joffre has no need
Of that; rivers, mountains, valleys, are
