filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form OF urine. but

more toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the blood

James Me Coy Sent
 To Penitentiary
Man Arrested in Seward Found Guilty
 of Embezzlement.

James Mccoy who was arrested here in Seward a few months ago has been sentenced to a term in the state penitentiary of Idaho on the charge of embezzIement. This will be news which will be regretted exceedingly particularly by the friends of Mrs. Mccoy The following is a clipping from the Boise, Idaho, Sunday Capl- tai News of June IS:
 James Mccoy has been sentenced to the state penitentiary for the em- bezzlement of $5OOO from Ira Brack- ett, of Twin Falls. He was given an indeterminate term of from 1 to IA years. Judge Babcock of the Fourth judicial district court passed sentence.
 The case grew out of a mining deal between the complaining witness and the defendant. Both were interested in the Jarbidge-Altitude mine, held under a lease with two other partners. Mir. Bracket alleged that he furnish ed Mccoy $5OOO with which the latter was to secure for him the controlling interest in corporation that held the ground and an extension of the lease. In raising this money certain loans were secured from banks in this coun- ty, the notes being signed by both Mir. Bracket and Mccoy The defense set up the claim of partnership, under which no claim of embezzlement would stick. The defense also introduced a letter, purporting to have been writ ten by Mir. Bracket to Mir. Mccoy in June, 1914, approving operations of the latter in his negotiations, while in the east endeavoring to carry out Mir. Brackets commission, and support ing the claim of partnership. The state claimed the letter a forgery and sought to prove the signature to be an imitation of Mir.

 At hill 60 in Northern France, the youthful soldier received his baptism of fire. He also went to the hospital for twelve weeks with two wounds in the head and two in the legs.
 Some time after he had rejoined his regiment, the Colonel, commanding, decided that a distant tower was be- ing used as an enemy observation post. The Colonel chose two men to cut the wires that connected the tow CT with the enemy batteries.
 The mep chosen were Lieutenant Murphy and Williams (PrObert.)
 After crawling two hundred yards through darkness, in the direction of the tower, Murphy was shot through the head.
 Probert crawled forward and eventually arrived. He dug in the ground around the tower for an hour with his hands before he discovered the wires.
 There were seventeen, which meant that seventeen German batteries were being accurately informed of the accuracy of their fire on the British positions. Probert tried to snip the wires with his pocket knife. The metallic sound produced, how ever, made the operation dangerous and he searched his Red Cross packet for vaseline.
 smearing the oil on the wires, he spent several hours in nOiselessly cutting all seventeen and then crawl ed tediously back to the British trenches,
