THOUSANDS HAVE KIDNEY

Weak and unhealthy kidneys cause so much sickness and suffering and when through neglect other causes kidney trouble is permitted to con tinue, serious results may be expected.
 Your other organs may need atten- tien--but your kidneys should have att tention first because their work is most important.

 PrevaIency of Kidney Disease
 Most people do not realize the alarm ing increase and remarkable preva- lency of kidney disease. While kidney disorders are among the most com mon diseases that prevail, they are al- most the last recognized by patients, who usually content themselves with factoring the effects, while the orig inal disease constantly undermines the system.

Colonel Hoskins, and the latter made return thereto, alleging the enlistment of young Pell, his arrest and confinement on the charge of desertion, that he would be duly tried on that charge by a court martial, and that he was guilty Of fraudulent enlistment. The district court ordered the immediate release of young Pell from the army and the delivery of him to his father. The court of appeals, Circuit Judges Pardee and Walker con- curing, and District Judge Grubb dis senting, affirmed this order of Judge Niles.
 MAJORITY OPINION
 The majority opinion held that it clearly appears from the statutes govern ing the matter that a minor under 16 years of age is incapable of acquiring the status of a soldier and his attempt to do so does not subject him to military It is not denied that such en- listment may be validated by the minors continuance in the service until he reaches the age which qualities him for enlistment. But before that time the government has no legal fright to his services, his contract of enlistment be- ing absolutely void. Therefore, as young

Answer: Under the first adjust

the second adjustment there is ap-
parently some liquid gasoline which
adheres to the inside of the intake
passages and which Is expelled when
the engine stops. This is a common
condition with engines that have one
exposed unheated intake piping and
possibly can be mitigated by the
more thorough heating Of the air

small to be serious. We think you

BLOOD-STAINED MONEY
EVIDENCE IN THEFT CASE
$500 in Bills Soaked From Wounds Re-
ceived by Prisoner While

Five 500 bills stained with blood were
part Of the evidence presented before Magis-
trate Price. at the Twenty y-second street and
Hunting Park avenue station today, when
Albert Vigella, thirty-eight years old, 2221
South Thirteenth street. was arrligned, ac-
cused of grand larceny
The blood-stained money was found on
Vigella after he was rendered unconscious
yesterday when he fell while scaling a

chasing him. The bills were stained with
blood from wounds received by Vigella in
trying to get over the fence

day went to the homo of john Klebin, 8S11

person, which he wanted to put in a safe
place.
Put your money In my trunk, where
nave $780," replied Klebin.
Rebin showed Vigella where tho trunk
was, While examining the trunk Klebin

NO 14-OUNCE LOAF

Cannot Be Produced at a
Living Profit, Declares
Louis J. Kolb
SITUATION IS MUDDLED

Bakers throughout the city are at odds
with published statements from H. De witt
Irwin, of the Federal Grain Administration,
predicting the possibility Of fourteen
ounce loaf TO retail for a nickel
The wide variance Of this estimate from
the latest estimate from Herbert c. Hoover
promising a twenty or twcnty-two-ounce
leaf for ten cents has added more muddle
TO the already much-muddled bread situa-
ton.
That n fourtecn-ounce loaf cannot pos
sibly be produced at a living profit to the
baker for nickel was declared emphati-
caHy by Col. Louis j. Kolb, president Of
the kolb Baking Company, when sounded
on the question.
Though I have had no information as to
the formulas recommended by Mr. Jacobs
IN his report, and therefore cannot speak
with hnality on the subject" Mr. Kolb
said Il do know that unless there Is some
sweeping modification Of the formulas now
used the bakers cannot sell such loaves
Tor nickel and continue in business"
America will not have to go to the
extremes for food that have been OK
perienced by the European countries" one
Of the Public Safety Committee experts
stated. "The war bread OF Europe-half
black and half holes-need not be looked
for here. Admixture Of other ingredients
INTO staple products is another measure the
United States is freed from"
Bread prices cannot fall" says Charles
Freebooter, treasurer Of the Freebooter Bak-
Ing Company, Of which William Freebooter
a member Of the War Emergency Council
is president
There is nothing in the bread situation
to warrant belief I'm the possibility of
lowered prices, is the view stated positively
and at length by the Philadelphia baker to-
day.
When the big man, with no size competi.
tor, can only keep afioat by constant pre-.
paredness, eternal vigilance such as buy.
ing flour in l0,O00-barrel lots and lard ir
100-car lots, how could the little man sur.
viro at all under the supposition Of such
five-cent bread. as suggested by the food
administration? 1t is still purely supposi
ton
III consumers knew anything at all about
the breadmaking industry they would not
accept all the irresponsible statements now
broadcast Many of them must be aware,
suppose, that -four costs 81 barrel more
than formerly: that lard costs 100 pei
cent more wrapping paper 100 per cent
more; wages 75 per cent higher; yet they
swallow whole alleged statements as to the
possibility of flve-cent loaves, without ever
stopping to ask how.
white bread is the best in times Of
either peace or war" Mr.. Freebooter STATED
earnestly. "The whole wheat IS largely
husk and chaff, entirely without nutritiv,
properties. 1t Is recommended for suf
ferers from diabetes and certain other
maladles."
