It is estimated that fully S2OOOOOOO annually has
been added to the payroll OF the United States Steel
Company by its voluntary wage advance Of ten per
cent to its 100000 employees. The reason assigned
by the corporation for granting the increase is the
high cost OF living. AS the increase in wages will

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps Of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cleudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take . tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.

Chase of Villa a Real
Test of American Army

problem of living in country which
is practically without salt The ex-
pectation that it would in part live
off the country through which it is
passing, paying for what it consumed,
even the scanty food supplies, which
were anticipated in the devastated
| Chihuahua districts, have not all
materialized Most of the available
pork, for example, has been found
infected with trichinae. These and
other incidents have complicated an
already difficult transportation situa-
tion. throwing the army upon its own
resources to work out quick substi-
tutes for the ordinary means of SUBJ
sistence.
Overcome Handicap
Practically, however, it is under
stood that the field forces, by hard
work, and the endurance of the cav
alrymen and horses and the remark
able marching powers displayed by
| the infantrymen, have made up for
considerable portion of this handi
cap. Adaptability Of the troops to
emergencies, displayed under the
test of this campaign, has furnished
many practical object lessons to the
lengths to which American armies
can be driven on forced marches,
without loss Of organization or dan
ger to the men.
These troops made record marches
| during their first day out, but ac-
cording to the reports reaching here,
and the evident physical hardness of
the men in the base camps, the men
are in condition not only to repeat,
but to exceed, their past perform
ances. In spite of campaign hard
ships, the camp life in Mexico is be-
ginning to produce it's round of hu
morous soldier stories. Today
Chinese laundryman, resident of
| Mexico, established his business near
a large camp, proceeded to attempt
to build his shack over and around
the army telegraph wire. He intend
ed to use the wire to hang out
clothes on. An officer stopped him
before the shack was up.
Pot Hunters
Duck shooters and other pot hunt
ers along the $50 miles of line Of
| communication have considerably
disturbed the pack train teamsters,
| who have tried to spread rumors that
the sportsmen were at the least hos
tile armies. However, staff officers,
after investigation, found that
neither Of the supplies Of game or
the teamsters had been menaced.
One of the infantry regiments
went on a rabbit drive Sunday near
