COSTLY CHIMES FOR CADETS
Big Set of Bells Is Being Made for
Chapel at United States Military
Academy at West Point.

What is said to be the most costly
chime of bells in America and one Of
the most musical sets in existence is
now being made at the foundry of the
Meneely Bell company of Troy, N. Y,
for the massive tower of Cadet chapel,
Rev. H. P. Silver, chaplain, at the
United States military academy, West
Point, as the gift of Mrs. James M.
Lawton, in memory of her father, the
late Maj. Gen. Robert Anderson, who
was graduated from the academy in
1925, and whose brilliant command Of
Civil war has thrilled millions of read
ers of American history, says the
Watchman-Examin
There will be IL bells in the chime,
the largest weighing nearly two tons
and measuring Sc inches at it's mouth.
The cadet chapel is of stone, quarried
from rock found on the military
grounds and cost to build about half
a million dollars. It's commanding pO-
sition on the hill back from the Hud"
son river makes an ideal place for
bells, and the patriotic airs from the
chime will sound throughout the beau
tiful highlands, in the midst of which
the military academy is situated, and
prove source Of inspiration to the fu-
ture generals of the United States
army that will always linger with them
pleasantly.

a NEW INVENTION

Wonderful discoveries in
science and medicine, as we'll as
mechanics, are made every day
in the United States. A reaper
for cutting sugar cane is one Of
the recent successes.
Equally as interesting is it to
know that DR.. Pierce, Of the
Institute, Buffalo,
N. Y, has discovered a new kid
ney and backache remedy which
is having splendid success in
curing many bladder and kidney
troubles. Ever since the discov-
cry of uric acid in the blood by
Scheele, in ITS, and the bad
effect it had upon the body,
scientists and physicians have
striven to rid the tissues and the
blood of this poison. Because of
its over-abundance in the sys-
tenn it causes backache, pain
here and there, rheumatism,

covered a new agent, called
An-u-ric double strength),
which will throw out and COM
pletely eradicate this uric acid
from the system. Anuric has
proved to be many times more
potent than hthia, and conse-
quently you need no longer fear
muscular or articular rheuma-
tism or govt, or many other dis
eases which are dependent on an
accumulation of uric acid within
the body, for you can obtain
Anuric at your nearest drug
