Danger Signal No. comes from the
kidney secretions. They will warn you
when the kidneys are weak. Well kid
neys excrete. clear, amber fluid.
Weak kidneys send out a thin, pale and
foamy, or thick, red, ill-smelling
urine, full of sediment and irregular
of passage.
Danger Signal No. 2 comes from the
back. Back pains, dull and heavy, or
sharp and acute, suggest weak kid
neys and warn you Of the danger of
dropsy, gravel and Bright's disease. In
that case Doan's Kidney Pills have
been endorsed by thousands. Here is
a statement of nearby resident:
A. V. Axtell, carpenter, Foley, Minn.,
says: 81 suffered from a dull back
ache and pains through my hips. It
hurt me to bend, stoop or lift and my
back got lame and sore. The trouble
was worse when I caught cold or did
any hard work. Doan's Kidney Pills
fixed me up all right and gave me free

again have emerged victorious from q

are under the command Of Lieutenant
William Thaw.

Haviland forced one enemy craft tc
an altitude Of 1000 feet, where he
engaged It in combat. After a spirit.
ed fight, the German machine riddled
by machine gun lire, collapsed and

Almost at the same time Johnson
had a desperate battle with another
German machine which he put to
fight, evidently in distress. Its fate
was not determined. Several other
German aircraft refused battle and

l2O BURIED IN NINE EXPLOSION

Trinidad, Colo, April 27-Hope that
any of the 120 men entombed in the
Hastings mine, near here, today, may
be rescued, was abandoned by rescue
crews tonight. The men were caught
behind a wall of fire which followed
an explosion in the mine slope early
this morning.
Rescue squads abandoned hope after
they had slowly worked their way
through the smoke-filled slope to the
main workings. The helmet squad
which re-entered the mine after the
first group of unprotected rescuers
had penetrated the main slope a dis
lance of 1900 feet. Evidence of a
gas explosion was found at this point,
but there was no trace of the men,
who are believed to be $500 feet farth-
er in.
