Killed by Poisons

A Il scientists agree that poisonous
products IN the blood are eliminated by
the kidneys and liver. The kidneys act
rs a kind of filter for these products.
When the kidneys are changed or de-
generated, by disease or old age, then
these posons are retained in the body.
II we wish to prevent old age coming
on too soon, or if we want to increase
our chances for a long life, DR.. Pierce Of
the lnvalids Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, says
that you should drink plenty of water
daily between meals to flush the kidneys.

u. S. AIR FIGHTERS NEAR
PERFECT.
Try UNITED PRESS)

Washington, July 10.-The
reason there are many vacancies
in the Aviation Section is that
only a small percentage OF those
who apply can pass the physl-
cial test. Here's what one must
do after filing out series OF
application forms.
"Have you ever been seasick?'
is the first question popped. Avl-
ators must be immune to NAL de
mer.
Tests for near sightedness and
far-sightedness, color perception
graded to finest tones and vision
follow. Vision must be normal.
Heart, lungs and blood pres
sure must be perfect.
Feet must be well shaped and
the nervous system normal.
Chest expansion must be three or
more inches inflated.
Equilibry tests are next. The
applicant shuts his eyes and bal
ances himself on his toes with
heels and toes together. It sounds
simple but try it. Then with
eyes still shut he balances on
each foot bringing the other up
until the heel touches the knee
cap.
Eyes are then examined more
minutely by the use of belladonna
and the iris is "X-rayed to
make doubly sure there is no in
lection. Large tonsils, and ade-
noids must be removed. Teeth
must be good and sound. Nasal
passages must be clear.
Hearing must be perfect. The
tick of watch must be heard at
five feet. Across a rs foot space
the applicant must differentiate
between "Glass' and EGrass'
"Brass" spoken in a barely audi
BILE whisper.
Equilibrium, the seventh sense,
must be perfectly developed. The
other senses must be perfect for
one impaired sense Injuries the
"balance sense
The applicant is seated in a
revolving chair much the same as
a BARRIERS or dentists. He is whirl-
ed ten times in each direction as
fast as the chair will revolve with
eyes shut. Suddenly stopped he
is to look in the opposite direction
from which he has been whirled.
The regular jumping Of the eye
ball as the brain seeks to regain
it's equilibrium shows how quick
ly the applicant is finding his
balance.
