STAND BY OUR YOUNG MEN

A million of the young men of the
United States are in training for mil
itary service in the war. Some of
them have already seen some service
in the French trenches. The first
shot has been fired from an American
gun, the first death blow has been
dealt, the first man of our forces has
received his wound. Others of our
men will soon be across the ocean
to take their part in the struggle.
The one thing necessary for those of
us who remain at home is to see that
at every moment and on every occa-
sion that may arise these men, our
own sons, brothers and friends, have
the united support of this nation.
That support must be active. It
must exhibit itself in concrete forms.
Specifically, it calls for contributions
of money. The race Of the sick and

people Of New York showed by large
majority that they did not want a

the people of that city stood for the
rot that Hillquit and his gang of fol-
lowers delivered from the platform
during his campaign. Even Thomas
Van Lear, socialist mayor of Mime

left his post Of duty to chirp for Hill

What the Kidneys Do
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work day and night. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, wnen un-
healthy some parts of this impure
matter is lett III the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-

nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheumatic
pains govt, gravel, disorders of the

MAN SHOULD LIVE 100 YEARS
That He Usually Reaches Only Half Of
Three. Quarters That Age 10 His
Own Fault, II 10 Declared.

Sickness and death have always ex-
listed in the world and always will 80
long as mans physical constitution re-
mains what 1t is. The body Is evident
~ Intended to last only certain time,
although man himself has unquestion-
ably greatly shortened the length of its
durance. The limit of tllrccscore years
and ten. set by the Psnlmist, deprives
US of many years that nre our due.
Students OF longevity have estab.
lished the rule that the animal body,
Including mans, should endure, barring
accident, five times as long as 1t takes
1t to reach full maturity, us marked by
the complete Justification Of the bones.
In man that period is about twenty
years. and man should, therefore, live
to round out Il century. That he usual
~ lives only half or three-quarters
rs long is his fault and the fault of his
ancestors
A French writer once assorted that n
man Is us old US his arteries, meaning
that the degcnerative changes of old
age were dependent upon or measur-
able by the degree of hardening IF the
arteries. That is undoubtedly true to
certain extent, but epigrams do not
solve problems or even explain facts.
1t affords slight comfort to know that
we are as old US our arteries If we do
not know how to prevent them from
aging prematurely.
Fortunately, we do know many of
the causes of the prescribe desenera-
ton that cuts us off before our time.
Heredity counts for much. Some fam
lilies are long-lived; in others, most or
all Of the members die young. That
sounds hopeless, yet we can do much
by hygienic living to lengthen our days
even If we come of shOrt-lived fam
lily. More thun that, we can transmit
to our descendants still higher de-
gree of stamina. The other causes of
early aging may be summed up in the
one word excess-Overwork, mental or
physical, worry, overeating and even
Oversleeping. Moderation (not insufii-
ciency) in all things-eating, drinking,
working, playing, sleeping-is- the Sc
cret of health and longevity.-Youth'
