WASH THE KIDNEYS!

All the blood in the body passes thru the kidneys every few minutes. This is why the kidneys play such an important role in health or disease. By some mys- terious process the kidney selects what ought to come out of the blood and takes it out. If the kidneys are not good-workmen and become congested- poisons accumulate and we suffer from backache, headache lumbago, rheu- matism or gout. The urine is often cloudy, full of sediment; channels often get sore and sleep is disturbed at night. So 1t is that Dr. Pierce, of the Invalids' aotel and Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. T.. advises "Washing the Kidneys" by drinking six to eight glasses of water between meals and then if you want to take a harmless medicine that will clear the channels and cure the annoy ing symptoms. go to your druggist and get Anuric tdouble strength), for 60c. This "Anuric," which is so many times more potent than lithia-will drive out the uric acid poisons and bathe the kid
 neys and channels in soothing liquid.
 If you desire, write for free medical advice and send sample of water for free examination. Experience has taught Doctor Pierce that "Anurie" Is a most powerful agent in dissolving uric acid. as hot water melts sugar.
 Send Dr. Pierce 10c for trial package.

Lawns that are patchy or spotted may have bad spots filled with new soh and sown or planted with sod taken from elsewhere and well fitted and battered down. The latter is the better way.

Then set tie thoroughly with water before seek. ing to make 1t smooth.

COUNT TOLSTOI SAYS
DISTRACTED RUSSIA'S
REGAINING VISION

Defining the Bolshevikism as Il
"theory founded on the marrow, scho-
lastic doctrines of Karl Marx and
made in Germany" Count Illya
Tolstoi said in a Pittsburgh speech
In an interview with a represen-
tative of the National Labor Journal
after the lecture, Count Tolstoi gave
interesting side lights on the Russia
chaos, particularly interesting to
Pittsburgh labortes. Tolstoi de-
clared that in the last analysis it
was the worker that proclaimed the
future of democracies, describing the
Russian Moujik thus:
"Who is this mystery, the Rus
sian peasant? Is he a sphinx I'M
able to be understood or a monster
to be feared? What will he do with
his new freedom? Shall he con-
tinue to fight a war which was none
of his making? All the world is
waiting for his answer, but still he
is silent. But l know the Russian
peasant. l have spent all my life
with him, and l know that when he
does speak he will say, 4 am he
whom you have oppressed for CEN
turtles; whom you have sold like
beast of burden; whom you have de-
MED education How shall it be
with kingdoms and with kings when
this man rises from the earth into
the freedom which he now knows for
the first time after centuries Of
wrongs?"
despite the seeming disintegra-
tioa of Russia, still am optimistic
of her future" he said. mo coun-
try has suffered such loss of life
in this war as has Russia, which
has lost 100000 men. They died
for the same cause for which your
men are fighting today, and twice
they saved the Allies. | myself
have three sons who fought in the
Russian Army.
RUSSIA is now like a man who
comes out of darkness into bright
light, and is blinded by that light.
She must pass through what all ma
tons pass, though, in the fight for
freedom But we should not blame
the light for the blindness"

THRIFT FOR u. S.
BY Betty Bangs

By Betty Bangs
White breads taboo at our house,
And pie we never see.
We have no use for doughnuts.
Or cake or French pastry.
We used to have tea parties,
And serve ice cream and cake,
And talk about our neighbors,
Just for amusement's sake.
But now we go to Red Cross.
And spend most of our time
N making bandages or socks
For our men in the line.
We never eat between meals,
For there are men in France
Who need each bit that we can save,
If they are to advance.
And when the war is over
The world will see nation
Of thrift, unselfishness and strength,
To them a revelation.

In his letter President Gompers
said:
"The elimination of section 8
Uunn amendment) and the retention
of the Cannon amendment, would be
a direct challenge to labor. Such a
policy would be unjustifiable and
discriminatory against human be-
ings and the granting of power and
special privileges to private en-
ployers over their employees, and
would be so interpreted by the great
mass Of the workers of our coun-
try.
"No one disputes the fact that the
workers generally of our country
and the American Federation of La
Dor have given indispensable serv-
ice and the failure of the congress
to retain the amendment above quot
ed would bring about its reaction
among the wage workers of our
country and would nullify all the eff
forts made by the organized labor
movement. A challenge of this
character will destroy the co-opera-
tive spirit of the worlmen of our
country, and thus retard rather than
accelerate our necessary industrial
activities in the conduct of sue
cessful war.
"Depriving workmen of their in
herent and constitutional rights can
have no other effect than to create
in an intensified form the spirit en-
gendered and developed by those
who covertly desire to see the issues
Of this war result in failure. 1t is
my earnest hope that no legislation
will be enacted that will retard the
successful prosecution of the under
taking in which we are now engaged.
and sincerely trust that in the
final determination of this bill either
it will remain in the form reported
by the conferees, or that both the
Cannon amendment and section 3 be
stricken from it."
The conferees' action was identi-
cal with the suggestion of President
Gompers and they eliminated both
disputed amendments. This bill
only applies to a strike or an in
dividual act that is intended to ham,
per the government in its prosecu-
ton of the war. This attempt at
malice distinguishes it from strike
to improve conditions.

MISSION
NOW IN EUROPE

The National Labor Journal, pub
lished in Pittsburgh, Pa, has this
to say of the American Labor Mis-
sion to Great Britain and France:
The American Labor Mission i.
nearing the shores of Europe. They
carry with them message from
the workers of America to the valor-
our people of France and England;
a message of soul-filled admiration
message to "carry on" for free
dom and universal justice unit!
America in the zenith of its mar
velous power is ready to give that
assistance which no military power
on Gods earth could subdue.
To the hard-pressed allied armies
and the brave people back of the
firing lines and to the loyal workers
in the industries of England and
France the coming of the American
Labor Mission will be an inspiration
of strength and encouragement Then
will they get first-hand knowledge
of the feeling" that has swept over
the American people, and particular
ly the American Workingmen since
April 6, 1917, when America hurled
defiance into the teeth of the AFRO
giant autocracy of the Central En-
pires.
1t is the veriest sort of rot, the
silliest kind of sophistry on the part
Of certain propagandists to imply
that American workingmen are dis
interested in the war cause of the
nation. Several spasmodic indus
trial disagreements have been the
basis of the insnuation. When the
message of the Mission is given
throughout sunny France and Merric
England those stout-hearted folk will
get the proper perspective of Amer
lean workingmen's loyalty to the
great fight for democracy. The mes
sage will be that every mothers son
in mine, factory, shipyards, field and
forest on this side of the Great Wa
tiers have determined industrially to
duplicate the moral victories of Bun
ker Hill, Valley Forge, Gettysburg.
And the carriers of the message are
men and women who all their lives
have lived in shoulder touch with the
matchless Drawn of this nation, and
therefore, are in a position to know
whereof they speak.
A cursory glance at the personnel
of the Labor Mission speaks for it.
self. Concentrated in the group are
men and women who because of their
touch with industrialism in the Unit
ed States are in the possession of
perspective of no mean merit Here
are their names: James Wilson,
president Patternmakers' League of
North America; John P. Frey, exec
utive officer International Molders'
Union of North America; William
Short, president, Washington State
Federation of Labor; Miss Melinda

And the message of Americas La
Dor Mission will do more than carry
tale of Americas speeding up"
t will cement the natural ties of
fraternity which hitherto have not
been knit as closely together as pos
sibly they might have been.
