SAFE, GENTLE REMEDY
CLEANSES YOUR KIDNEYS

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad-
der are the most important organs of the
body. They are the filters, the purifiers of
your blood. If the poisons which enter
your system through the blood and stom-
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism sciatica and lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
kidneys or other organs or that the enemy
microbes which are always present in your
system have attacked your weak spots.
GOLD MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules are
what you need.
They are not "patent medicine" nor

TREAcHERY OF THE
BOLSHEWk CHIEFS
Barred TO WORLD
AMERICAN GOVERNMENT SHOWS
LENINE AND TROTZkY ARE
HUNS PAID TOOLS.
Their Betrayal of Russia for German
Gold is Proved Absolutely by
Series of Documents.

Washington.-That Nicolai Lenine
and Leon Trotzky, chiefs of the boil
sheviki, betrayed Russia deliberately
for German gold is proved by series
OF official documents which the United
States government, through the COM
mittee on public information, has laid
before the world.
Secured in Russia by Edgar G. Sis
son, representing the committee (who
was in that country during last win
ter, l917-1S) these documents not only
through it's Imperial bank paid it's gold
to Lenine, Trotzky, and their imme-
date associates to betray Russia into
deserving her allies, but give added
proofs that Germany had perfected her
plans for war of world conquest long
before the assassinations at Sarajevo,
which conveniently furnished her pre-
text.
Hun Plots Against America.
These documents further show that
before the world war was four months
old, and more than two years before
the United States was drawn into it
Tin 1910, Germany already was set
ting afoot her plans to mobilize de-
structive agents and observers" to
cause explosions, strikes, and outrages
in this country, and planned the en-
plOyment of anarchists and escaped
criminals" for the purpose.
Almost ranking in their sensational
will
man note proposing war by Mexico
and Japan upon the United States.
these documents lay bare new strata
of Prussian intrigue, new view of
the workings of kultur to disrupt the
allies standing between the world and
kaiserism. They disclose also new
story of human treachery for gold.
The intrigue appears to have been
carried down to the last detail of ar
rangement with typical German sys-
TEN.
Revolution Staged by Berlin.
Not only do the disclosures prove
that Lenine, Trotzky, and their band
are paid German agents. They show
that the bolshevik revolution, which
threw Russia into Such orgy or MUIR
der and excuses as the world seldom
has seen, actually was arranged by the
German general staff.
They show how the paid agents Of
Germany betrayed Russia at the Brest-
Litovsk "peace" conference; how Ger
man staff officers have been secretly
received by the bolsheviki as military
advisers; how they have acted as spies
upon the embassies of the nations
with which Russia was allied or at
peace; how they have directed the
bolshevik foreign, domestic and eco
nomic policy wholly in the interest OF
Germany, and to the shame and deg
radiation OF Russia.

AIR TRIP TO THE NORTH POLE

AIR TRIP TO THE NORTH POLE
A few years ago when toy BOOK;
represented Kris Kringle coming
from the North Pole in his sleigh,
high up in the heavens, we looked
upon the achievement with as much
faith as the transportation by the
germ Of Aladdm'S palace from the
capital of China to Africa. But we
live in 4 day when nothing seems 20
be impossible, and men are cnntcm-
plating visiting the North Pole in an
airship. which some time ago world
have been regarded as impossible as
kriss kringle's serial journey.
a dispatch from New York tells
us that an expedition to be led by
Captain Robert A. Bartlett, noted ex-
plorer, will be sent to the Polar reg
ions next June to survey the North
Pole by airplanes, according to an
aouncement by the Aero Club Of
America. The plan, it was said, was
conceived by Rear Admiral Robert
Z. Pcary, discovercr of the Pole.

According to representations sent
out BY the Weather Bureau, we may
have !. "white Christmas" as snow is
probably by tomorrow. However, let
US be thankful we have roofs to our
houses, as We can remain indoors and
partake of the blessings Of heaven
without abusing the same.
During the past six weeks tie
world has looked forward to nc
Christmas season of 1918. The sud-
den close of the terrible,war during
the first. two weeks of last month
sent thrills of Joy throughout u!
land and caused many to involuntar-
lily utter the words of well-llnomn
hymn.
Joy 20 the world! the Lord has come.
Let earth receive her king!
Peace is once more lowering owe"
our homes, in which there will &c
family reunions, and where some
members who have been in camps and
others PARKWAY beyond the sea vii!
mingle
: While thousands are still upon
what had up to a few weeks ago been
the theatres of carnage. the fact that
.hostilities have ceased has relieved
the anxiety so long experienced b.
loved ones at home.
Many beautiful thoughts cluster
around Christmas. While 50 many
see but little in it save the cheer of
the occasion, the spiritual import
should be of the greatest interest t.:
all. 1t is the5 anniversary of IN event
which had been anticipated for four
thousand years. "The seed of the
woman shall bruise the serpent's
head" was the first promise given
The Representatives of the human
race in the Garden of Eden This SOL
emn pledge shone out as brilliant
star to our progenitors, and although
the world passed through many dark
clouds the promise was believed by
the people to whom it was given, and
ain tho fulness of time God sent forth
His son. born of woman" We will
celebrate the anniversary of his birth
tomorrow.
The malignant power which brought
"sin and death and all our woes" INTO
the world found that One greater
than he was IN evidence and the an
nounce1 Friend of mankind.
While partaking of the cheer which
accompanies Christmas, we should
not forget these important facts.
