ARE YOUR KIDNEYS sICKi
Many Maysville People Have Kept
Well by Keeping Their Kidneys
Well

The first symptom of kidney trou-
BILE may be only a slight pain in the
back, a feeling of stiffness or soreness
in the loins, or some annoying irregu-
larity of the urinary passages. Urine
is. often dlscolored and perhaps sedi-.
ment gathers upon standing. Next
may come a dull, throbbing bachache,
sharp, knife-like pains, headaches, dir
illness and in many cases, lameness
when arising in the morning. No one
can afford to delay until these trou-
bles become serious. Begin using
Doan's Kidney Pills, the tried and
tested kidney remedy that has won the
praise of thousands. Maysville read
ers should find convincing proof OF
merit in the following statement. It's
from a resident of this locality.
A. Sorries, locksmith, Aberdeen, o.
says: "The action of my kidneys was
irregular and the kidney secretions
contained sediment. l had backache
and when STOPPING, it was hard for me
to straighten up. Colds always set
tied on my kidneys. used Doan's Kid
ney Pills and they stopped the trouble
and my kidneys became strong"

Pace With National Association but

Need the Support of Citizens
While the National Association of
the Boy Scouts Of America are taking
additional steps TO safeguard and pro-
tect the interests of all the members.
the boys of Troop No. l. of Smyrna,
are taxing their work more seriously
and growing both in size and ability.
The appeal made on the last night Of
the ChsutauqUa has brought some
response which meets a part Of the
pressing financial need. In spprecia-
tlon OF the interest on the part Of the
people Of Smyrna, the boys desire to
snow some return. Since that time
there have been some new enrollments.
SIX boys have qualified. and been ad-
mitted as Tenderfoot Scouts, and many
OF the older ones are working hard on
Second Glass work. Two things need
to be said at this time in addition to
the word Of appreciation for help.
The first being little statement of
conditions-Among the men who Piled
ged yearly contribution several years
ago. there are now twenty-six avail
able. There ought to be at least that
many more. Five new ones were ad
ded to-day and this appeal is now
made for about twenty men or women

$500 year for this worthy cause.

Navy Law, under which the Delaware
troops have just re-enlisted at New

ing uniform resembling that Of the
Army, but max es a proviso to the
effect that this does not interfere with
the State Militia. the Naval Reserves,

MILLION ROUNDS A MONTH
Great Steel King Pledges Con-
Germ to Government at Own
Price; Welcomes Peace

New York, Dec. %. - The Bethle-
hem Steel plant, now fifty per cent.
greater than the great Krupp works
at Essen, will be turned over to the
United States government the moment
that 1t is needed, and without any
strings attached.
Charles M. Schwab, head of the
great plant at Bethlehem, made this
pledge to a dinner table full of dis
tinguished publicists at the Lotos Club
and declared that the concern now
has capacity of 100000 rounds of
heavy ammunition month.
This" he declared, Il feel to be a
great national asset for the govern
ment. In the event the time comes
that it is needed, it will be placed at
the disposal of the government to be
used as the government sees fit, and
the government itself shall name the
price to be paid for the material pro-
duced."
Mr.. Schwab said he did not fear"
the effect of peace on Americas bust
ness.
Il am an optimist," he said. Some
see disaster in peace coming but l look
on peace as n blessing. What we want
is conclusive peace and not one that
merely presages another war"
