ARE YOUR KIDNEYS WELL?
Many Manchester People Know the
Importance of Healthy Kidneys.

Many Manchester People Know the
Importance of Healthy Kidneys.
The kidneys filter the blood,
They work night and day.
Well kidneys remove impurities.
Weak kidneys allow impurities to
multiply.
No kidney i'll should be neglected.
There is possible danger in delay.
If you have backache or urinary
troubles,
If you are nervous, dizzy or worn
out,
Begin treating your kidneys at once;
Use a proven kidney remedy.
None endorsed like Doan's Kidney

BIG BAD AND
LITTLE BAD

If anything is bad enough it
gets good. Witness Charlie
Chaplin.
There seems to be a point be-
yond which if a vice is carried
it becomes a virtue.
The community was Mortified
when a group of gunner killed
a New York gambler, and when
a doctor fed poison to his par
ents-in-law; but it would ap-
pear not the murder, but the
smallness of it is what shocks
us. for when the crown prince
orders up a hundred thousand
yokels to be reduced to pulp by
French seventy-fives, when the
festive Zeppelin blows up a. or
phan asylum, or when the gay
little submarine torpedots a
Russian hospital ship, that is
grand and glorious hymns
of praise to God be sung il all
churches, and the iron crosses
and decorations pour lie merite
be passed around.

BAD PILL FOR
CHICAGO HOUSE
Big Stone Druggist Has Scheme
to Combat Catalogue
Concerns.

open warfare between Cne
country merchant and the mai.
order concerns of the country
which has been in progress for
some years and which has
grown more fierce, although
bloodless, during the past few
months may soon end. A drug
gist at Big Stone City, near
Ortonville, has introduced a
new submarine attack which
threatens to sweep the mail-or-
der houses from the trade seas
unless the supreme court hands
down an ultimatum and comes
to the aid of the allies. The mail
order concerns, Sears & Roe
buck catalogues are the ships
torpedoed so far although the
other mail-order houses have
suffred heavy losses.
Several weeks ago several
tons of Sears & Roebuck's cata-
logues were dumped at Big
Stone City addressed to farm
ers near town. They were fol-
lowed by catalogues from other
/ houses. The druggist viewed the
situation with alarm and decid-
cd something must be done. He
thought out a plan and then
took a page ad in the local pa
per. He announced that he would
start a contest in which he
would give away a handsome
and valuable phonopraph. Cou-
pons would be given to people
bringing in catalogues and price
lists of every description and to
the persons securing the largest
number of coupons within a
stated time he will give the
phonograph. Today he is doing
a landoffice business and he
doesn't know where he will
store all the catalogues. They
are worth SIP per ton baled as
cid paper. This will more than
pay for the phonograph and
advertising while the advertis-
;ng he receives will be worth
much more.
Editor Mellen of the Orton-
vile Journal paid the druggist a
visit last week to ascertain the
success of the novel scheme and
he was astounded at the reve.
lations. When the druggist
started the contest he had nc
conception of developments OF
the vast amount of good he was
doing for the community. He is
striking a deadly blow at the
catalogue houses which prom.
ises to become widespread anc

Deutschland Will
Return in 10 Days
Captain Koeing Confident Big
Undersea Vessel Cannot
Be Held.

Baltimore, Md. July 13.-Confi-
dent that the efforts of the diplo-
matte representatives of the en-
tente allies to have his vessel
classed as a warship and interned
will prove unavailing, Captain
Paul Koeing, master of the Ger
lnan submarine Deutschland, is
preparing to leave port on his
return voyage within 10 days.
He expressed satisfaction to-
night but not surprise when in
formed that three American ma
val officers, who today inspect
ed the Deutschland, had reported
in effect that not only was she an
unarmed merchant vessel now
hut was so constructed that she
could not be converted into a war
craft without virtually being re-
built.
Designed as Freighter.
Captain Koeing said he could
only reiterate that the Deutsch-
land, like other submarines built
or building for Germany's new
undersea merchant fleet, was de-
signed solely as a freight carrier
AT least eight of these vessels, il
was authoritatively Learned here
today, now are building at Kiel
The view here is that no such
project would have been under
taken had not the German inter.
ests behind it been thoroughly in
formed that the status of the yes.
sells was unquestionable.
No Torpedo Tubes.
the torpedo being a submar
iue's essential weapon to make

the possibility that the Deutsch
land might be pierced for torpe

cerp of the American naval Off

day.

Final Report
Result Shows Deficit of but SlOO
as Compared With $1,000
in Former Years.-NO
Surplus.

= regular meeting of the execu-
tive committee of the Beach
Chamber of Commerce was held
Tuesday evening, at which a full
report of the various Fourth of
July committees was rendered..
A report of the condition of the
financial affairs of the base ball
club showed a very satisfactory
condition. 1t is generally conced-
ed that a base ball club is not a
money-making proposition A
creditable balance remains in the
fund.
With all bills pertaining to the
Beach Fourth of July celebration
in the hands of the committee, the
committee shows final deficit
of about one hundred dollars, in
spite of rumors that it more than
|paid out. 1t is true that some fea-
tures showed a profit, but this was
more than expended in meeting
the deficit of other departments.
l,y organized handling of the
finances the celebration cost the
citizens of Beach but one hund-
red dollars as compared with the
expenditures of other years of
from. one thousand to twelve
hundred dollars.
The proposition of a chautau-
Qua for the coming year was
temporarily laid upon the table,
pending a thorough canvass of
the Chautauqua situation. The
committee is seriously consider
ing whether or mot it would be
better to run independently or on
a circuit, as has been the case i'm
the past. Both propositions have
their advantages and disadvant-
ages, and il is for the purpose of
summarizing available data that
no definite action was taken. A
decision will be taken at future
Injecting.

BIG MAX ZIMMERMAN,
MARKET DAY BOOSTER,
:. ARRESTED FOR LARCENY

A number of the state press
carry the story of the arrest at
Crosby this week of Max Zim-
norman, brother of a member OF
The firm of Barret & Zimmerman,
horse dealers of St. Paul. The
charge was grand larceny, depu-
~ sheriff of Hennepin county
Minnesota, making the arrest.
The story is of considerable
local interest from the fact that
Zimmerman is we'll known among
Beach people as the originator of
the market movement, which he
staged annually in various parts
of the northwest. His first and
only appearance in connection
with a market day festiva ! in
Beach occurred some six years
ago, and in all fairness to Zimmer-
man was considerable of a sue
cess, though the major share Of
the profits thereof is said to have
accrued to the bluff and genial
Max himself This spring he made
another visit to Beach for the pur-
pose of staging another event, but
was unsuccessful, the newly Or
ganized Chamber of Commerce
: and bylaws effectually tieing his
hands in Independent effort. The
Chamber of Commerce did not
encourage his effort, and Max de-
parted for other points. Recent
]y he held a market day festival
at Williston. Other towns did not
/. offer much encouragement. and it
S presumed his lack of success
in this respect led Max from the
straight and narrow path and re-
suited in his arrest. His alleged
crime is not known here.
