WHAT THE DOCTOR KNOWS.
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condition
of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of
serious illness, makes a chemical an
alysis of the patients urine. He knows
that unless the kidneys are doing their
work properly. the other organs cannot
readily be brought back to health and
strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's Disease, which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble.

porous - Hickman Triplett Keeps
Track Of Daughters Thru Friends
But Children Were Not Apprised Of
Misunderstanding Prospsrs.

Nevada Jan. 10.-There was a most
pleasant family reunion over at Ames
on Christmas day.
Nearly a third OF century ago wher
Mrs. c. II. Hall of this city and Mrs.
Fish were little girls, their father left
their home down in West Virginia and
they had never seen him since.
on Christmas day the father Hick-
man Triplett appeared at the home OF
Mrs. Fish at Ames and made himself
acquainted. He had kept track of his
daughters thru friends all OF these
Years but this was his first time 10 call
upon them or communicate with them.
For aught they knew he had died, long
ago.
Mrs. Hall of this city. was just pre-
pairing the turkey and other Soou
things for the Christmas dinner here
when she was called To the telephone
her sister asked her to come over Tor
Christmas at the Fish home.
Mayor and Mrs Hall had decided
to remain at home and at first declined
the invitation to dine out. The sister
insisted however, and assured her
that there was surprise III store FOR
her So Charley hitched up the King
and they drove over.
The surprise o! course could mol
have been otherwise than great. The
day was spent most happily by the
AGED father the two daughters whom

he had not seen for third of CEN
tury and their families.
Leaving the West Virginia home the
father drifted into the west He spent
some years in Idaho and other points
in the states but later drifted up into
Saskatchewan country in Canada, where
he has prospered and became sub
ject OF King George.
He spent last week at Ames with
the Fish family and this week is a
guest of the family or his daughter
Mrs. Hall.
During all those long years he had
kept in touch with his family thru the
good officers and by communication
with others and his coming back to
them was great surprise and most
welcome one Mrs Hall was but three
wears of age when the father left them
and she scarcely remembered having
seen him.

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying little zemo
furnished by any druggist for 25c. Ex-

the moment zeno is applied. In short
time usually every trace Of eczema, tet-

For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy always use zemo, the

others fail it is the one dependable treat

FRENCH ROADS
ARE IMPROVED
WRECKAGE LEFT by GERMANS
USED IN RESURFACING
HIGHWAYS

BEHIND THE BRITISH LINES
IN FRANCE, June 27.-Hundreds
Of miles of the smooth white ma,
cadam roads of northern France
will remain for many years after
the war as a real memorial to the
devastated towns which the Ger
mans left in ruins after their retreat
this spring.
All over northern France the
roads are being widened and resur-
facted with stone and rubble taken
from the wrecked houses of Peron-
ne, Albert, Arras and countless
other ruined towns and villages. AS
fast as the British soldiers clear
away the debris Of the towns, it is
piled into lorries and distributed in
heaps along the main roads. There
German prisoners toll the day long
pounding it into level patches which
the great steam rollers, many Of
them bearing familiar American
names, grind quickly into smooth
macadam for the business of trans
port.
The brick and stone of these old
buildings makes as good road ma
terial as could be obtained any
where, and the work of the German
dynamiter has been so thorough
hat much of it is crushed fine
enough to need no further prepara-
ton.
The road of northern France were
always excellent, but they were
never better than today. The only
complaint travellers had against
them in the old days was that the
paved strip in the center was too
narrow. That complaint cannot be
made after the British highway
plans have been completed, for all
the main highways will he maca-
damized to width permitting three
broad-guage lOrries to run abreast.
and even the byways will have a
paved surface wide enough to al
low traffic to pass easily at any
point.
Excessive business is the only
fault of the roads today, for war
economics will not permit the use
of precious oil on roadways.
There is little need anywhere in
this district for Strengthening roads
or altering routes. because the roads
Of northern France mostly run
straight as an arrows flight. Most
of the great highways were laid out
in Napoleon's time by military sur
veyors, and their strategic values
and Importance has always been
kept primarily in mind by the
French government.

ZANZIBAR MINE
IS W|NGF|ELD'S
OWNER OF GOLDFIELD MINES
SECURES CONTROL OF MAN
HAITIAN CLAIMS

Plans are in embryo for the re-
organization of the Zanzibar Mining
company, a corporation doing bust
ness in the camp of Manhattan. The
controlling interest has practically
been taken over by George Wing
field, the well known mining mag
nate, who controls a number of
the biggest mines in the west.
Official notice has been sent to
stockholders of record hat a meet
ing of the company will be held
on August Is, at Reno. when the
transfer will officially be brought
under the absolute control of the
new interests.
In the meantime development
will be carried forward on this
promising mineral estate. and there
is excellent reason for believing
that important discoveries will
eventually result.
1t was announced at the time
that Mr.. Wingfield became interest
ed in the Zanzibar company hat
plans would shortly mature where
by the property would be equipped
with a modern plant of machinery.
The equipment, it is understood,
will be moved from one of the
mines in the vicinity of Goldfield.
in which Mr.. Wingfield is heavily
interested, but upon which little
development has been in progress
for a long time.
The entrance of George Wingfield
and associates into the Manhattan
district will certainly give impetus
to the situation. Thorough examin-
ation of the Zanzibar estate was
made by a number of mining en-
gineers and biologists, and upon
their report, which was recently
submitted, resulted in the control
of the property changing hands

BIG RESERVOIR
IS NOW EMPTY
WATER REPORTED TO HAVE
REACHED THREE FEET AT
COTTON

SALT LAKE CITY, June 81. -
Cotton is the farthest point east on
the Price river flood district which
could be reached last night by tel
ephone, all lines of communication
being down beyond that point. At
Elat point it was reported that the
water had receded about three feet
and the Mammoth reservoir in
Gooseberry creek is now empty
save for the water that is running
in from the melting snow, the dam
having gone out to its foundation
near the center of the core.
Several railroad bridges on the
Denver & Rio Grande line between
Cotton and Castle Gate have been
washed GU t and three or four bridg-
es along the state highway also
have gone out. At Castle Gate five
company houses were undermined
by the water and collapsed. The
tenants have moved out, seeking
higher ground and no loss of life or
injuries were reported.

CROSS FUND
STILL GROWING
TOTAL CONTRIBUTIONS ARE ES-
TIMATED TO AMOUNT
TO $114,OOO,OO 600

WASHINGTON, d. c., June FL
The nations contributions to the
Red Cross in response to the call for
a $780, 900 900 war fund were esti-
mated at %$114,0OO,0 900 last night by
Henry P. Dawson, chairman of the
Red Cross war council.
This figure assumes said Mr..
DAWSON, that stockholders in COM
panies which have declared special
dividends amounting to some $780,
900, will turn their dividends
over to the Red Cross"
The policy of the Red Cross in ex-
pending this big sum, Mr.. Dawson
said in a statement thanking the mil
lions of contributors, will be to con-
duct all our work with the utmost
publicity and to take the public as
completely as possible into our conf
dence.
Primarily the fund will be devoted
to needs of American soldiers and
sailors and secondarily to relief
work among the allies.

Md Dear --:
Tonight | am sitting in a
small underground cellar of m
of the public buildings of the
town, acting as a sort of time
keeper or starter for the cars
going up to our most dangerous
post and handling the reserve
cars for wounded in the town
itself. l wish | could describe
the scene as it is before my eyes,
for the whole world is passing
French, American. living,
wounded and dying.
A long heavily arched CORR
der, with stone steps leading
down to it: two compartments
off to one side lined with wine
bins, where our serve men and
a few French brancardiers
(stretcher bearers) are lying on
their stained stretchers, some
snoring, beyond a door that
gives into a small operating
room, and to the left another
door that leads to a little sick
ward, the most pathetic little
room | have ever seen-with -four
beds of different sizes and kinds
on one side and six on the other,
taken evidently from the ruined
houses nearby-and one tired in
firmer (hospital attendant) to
tend and soothe the wounded and
dying.
In the bed nearest the door,
a French priest, shot through
the lungs-with pneumonia set
ting in-his black beard pointed
straight up, and whispering for
man lad, hardly nineteen and
small, with about six hours to
live, calling, sometimes scream
ing for his mother and then for
water.
Next to him a French captain
of infantry with his arm off at
the shoulder and his head wound
ed, weak, dying, but smiling;
and next to him a tirailleur in
delirium calling on his colonel
to charge the Germans. The in
firmer is going from n to the
other, soothing and waiting on
each in turn. He asks what the
German is saying, and tell
him he is calling for his mother.

MOVING APPEAL
FROM TRENCHES
SUFFERINGS At RATTLE
FRONT

In an appeal for more funds a
young American Red Cross worker
in France has written a vivid des-
cription of the suffering and misery
that the one hundred million dol
lars being raised by the Red Cross
during the week of June 18th. to
June 25th will help to alleviate.
The writer is Phillip o. Mills, son
of General Samuel Mills, who was
chief of artillery in the United
States army and at one time head
of West Point.
Thousands of such appeals are
pouring into Red Cross headquar-
tiers each day. 1t is to respond to
such appeals hat the volunteer
workers who are toiling ceaselessly
are striving to meet.

RENTS ARE HIGH
IN NETHERLANDS
BRIBERY is RESORTED TO IN
ATTEMPTS TO FIND
HOMES

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, June
27.-The house-hunter in Holland
in the days of the great world-war
of 1917 is assuredly an object for
pity. The scarcity of houses for
EN- at Amsterdam, the Hague and
other centers has greatly increased
because of wars interference with
the house-building industry and of
the influx of foreign population
into the Netherlands. At the
Hague, for instance, of Belgians
alone there are thousands who have
temporarily settled. The lack is
particularly felt in respect of apart
ments-the Dutch upper house
or lower housekeeping between
5000 and $500 in rent.
So keen was the hunt after
houses in Amsterdam recently hat
high rewards were offered for ad-
dresses of houses to let. Races
have taken place, and bribing has
been practiced to find homes. If in
the morning a house was to let,
in the afternoon it was let. In the
brief meantime thirty or forty pros
pective tenants had rung the bell
and asked to see 1t.
The result is that landlords have
become more and more particular,
and their demands have multiplied.
A special law was passed by parlia-
ment to prevent the undue initiation
of rents, so that the natural effect
of the demand has been artificially
prevented. Certain classes of houses
are unobtainable saw by purchase,
and the purchase prices have risen
enormously, certain houses chang
ing hands rapidly at an ever-mount-
ing price.

PLANS ARE MADE
TO OBSERVE DAY
FOURTH WILL BE OBSERVED
HERE AS CHILDREN'S
DAY

As a result of several days OF agi-

a meeting to arrange for a Fourth of
July celebration was held last night
in Eagles hall. Thirty yere present.
representing different lines of bust
ness, and plans were made for OBJ
serving the Fourth as a children's
day.
1t was agree that at this tine it
would be inadvisable to attempt the
promotion of a celebration on a
large scale and a maximum of from
$500 to $500 was fixed as the sum
to be raised.
F. NJ. Stoller was elected chairman
of the meeting and this morning
made the following appointments on
a committee of arrangements and
finance:
Milton NJ. Detch. chairman; Reu-
ben Viles, Carl D%amskey. T. F. Dunn,
Frank Hunt.
OF the amount raised about $500
will be used for the employment of
a band for the day and the remain
der will be used for the entertain
ment of the children. Both picture
shows will be open during the day,
free to the children. A barbecue, for
which the necessary meat has al
ready been donated, is planned.
For the evening of the Fourth. the
