A new substitute has been found

sacrifices for Uncle Sam, and we

Get New Kidneys

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body, and when they
fail III their work of fltering out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begin to happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness in the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges-
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad-
der. These symptoms indicate condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady, Bright's disease, for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay minute. At the first in
dication of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking
Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules, and
save yourself before it is too late. Instant
treatment is necessary in kidney and blad-
der troubles. A delay is often fatal
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules.
For more than 200 years this famous prep
aration has been an unfailing remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
1t is the pure, original HARLEM Oil your
grcat-grandmother used. About two cap
sules each day will keep you toned up and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store. and
if it does not give you almost immediate
relief your money will be refunded. Be
sure you get the GOLD MEDAL brand.

Facts About Ships Speed.

A ship increases her speed more
readily over deep water, but on the
other hand, the faster a ship runs the
more depth of water she requires to
prevent the hindrancs caused by the
dragging influence of the friction
which is always felt when the ships
keel senses" bottom. Running ten
knots an hour, ship must have be-
tween 26 and 81 feet of depth, or she
is dragged from below. If running

she feels thes drag over a depth Of

&
is the spirit that has gripped Amer
lean shipyards, whether working in
wood, steel cement, and it looks if
should, indeed have 100000 tons of freight
ers afioat before the end of the year.
A few weeks ago the nation was thrilled
when news came from the Pacific coast that
steel cargo carrier of $500 tons was put over
board 50 working days after the laying of her
keel and was delivered to the Emergency Fleet
corporation ready for service II days later. But
the record thus set by the steamship West Lianga,
built at Seattle by the Skinner & Eddy company
was fated to survive only short while.
On April the keel of the collier Tuckahoe
was laid at the yard of the New York Shipbuild-
ing company at Camden, N. j. Twenty-seven
days afterward, on May 5, the ship was launched
SO per cent toward total completion and on
May 10 she was in all respects fit to be turned
over TO the government authorities. Her con-
tract did not cali for her delivery until the middle
OF June.
The West Lianga, it should be borne In mind,
is ship of $500 tons dead weight capacity,
while the Tuckahoe is of $500 tons, and this ds
ference brings the two achievements much
closer to equality than is commonly recognized.
For instance the Skinner & Eddy steamship
probably has in her getup substantially $780,
600 rivets, while the collier built on the Della
ware called for substantially 100000 rivets.
When all is said and done the rate of prog
ress of a ship under construction is pretty ae-
curately judged by the number cf rivets driven
because the ultimate factor is the rivetng gang,
and muscular effort and human endurance on
the part of these men determine the speed of
assembling.
The driving of rivets cannot be lodged i'm
perfectly done If the craft be put together
properly, and while exceptional records have been
made of late In rvet driving these performances
in the main Isolated and by a
deN of everyday and universal occurrence. Some
of the especially expert gangs have driven any
where from 1,500 TO over 1000 rivets in days
work. but the majority of them do average
more than 400 rivets during a regular shift.
How then ii possible to put the Tuckahoe
together between April and May 5?
The New York Shipbuilding corporation
about 10 years ago initiated the standardized
ship with the idea of producing economically and
rapidly numerous vessels of identical form and
size
Just before the Tuckahoe was taken in hand,
so il is said. sister ship constructed and
simultaneously the materials for the Tuckahoe
were prepared and accumulated that they
would be all ready for what might be termed
record-making undertaking. With the sister
