EVERY MEAL A
POISONOUS INJECTION

Few folks suffering from kidney and
bladder troubles ever think that the
meals which they are taking are hast
ening their death. Every morsel Of
food taken gives up its quantity OF
uric acid. This poison is taken into
the system through a diseased condi-
ton OF the kidneys and bladder. In
the healthy man nature provides an
outlet for this poison. Those in ILL
health must take medicinal help to
drive this death-dealing poison from
the system. For over 200 years GOLD

been doing this work. They effect
prompt relief in all diseases arising
from kidney and bladder troubles.

LONDON, Aug S-Col. Roosevelt's
advice of not to hit soft is hardly
needed by the American troops be-
tween Scissors and Rheims, says Reu-
ter's correspondent on the American
front. There has been no soft hitting
on the part of the Americans thus far,
nor any inclination in that direction.
The Germans asked for a rough
war, and by Heaven, we are here to
see that they get it" is the remark
of one American soldier reported by
the correspondent, who says the Ger
mans who fought in the Marine salient
doubtlessly realize that fact.
"If, however," the correspondent
continues, German officers instead Of
telling their men lies about American
barbarians' would refrain from acts
which produce a white heat of Ameri-
can hostility, it would be more to their
advantage. The vast bulk of soldiers
are home men. Gentle and kindly
things recalling their own homes in
the west appeal to them as nothing
else does and the awful ruin of the
French homes past which they have
been marching mile after mile has
seemed more distressing to many OF
them than their own losses.
'They accept the ruin as inevitable,
however, giving the Germans the ben

HARRY LONG IS
IN GAS ATTACK

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Long, 21S North
Eighteenth street, have received a
letter from their son, Private Harry
j. Long, stating that he is recovering
from a gas attack in a base hospital
at Tours, France.
He says: I'VE were gassed on Mon
day morning, July 16. l was in the
trenches at ChateauThierry, where
the worst fighting was going on.
They were sending bombs over so fast
that we had to leave the trenches and
go to the woods, about every other
shell was a gas shell. We went to
the woods at five o'clock in the morn
ing. Two other fellows and myself
ran into dug out. After while l
left the dugout and told the fellows
smelt something like sulphur match
es. The first thing l knew they yell
led, Gas, on with the masks
Il put on my mask but l began to
get dizzy and sick. When l came to
was in a field hospital"
The Longs have another son in ser
vice, Private Frank M. Long, who is
in France with a machine gun com
pany.

FOUNTAIN CITY BOY

The following letter was received

as follows:

the third largest town in France.
have been here ever since came over,
excepting a few days as we landed
about 200 miles north of here and
then came down by rail. We are about
500 miles from the lines, SO you can
see l am not in any danger, until
move up a little bit closer to the
front anyway. l am not in the fight
ing branch, so am very well satisfied
here at present, although am willing
to go any time they get ready to send
me. Have a nice place to live here
and plenty to eat, weighed 125 when
l came and weigh 147 now, SO if l
keep on no one will know me when

long.
Have been driving car for my Of
ficer, but they took the car away yes

but am going to work in the office

ENGLISH SCENES
STRANGE TO u. s.
FIGHTING men

English customs seem very strange
to the American soldiers who arrive
overseas, says Eugene Gaylor, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver Gaylor, 120 North
Eleventh street, in a letter to his par.
ents.
Following is part of the letter, dated
July IS:
Arrived safely at an English port
and am feeling fine. Things are a
great deal different in this country
than in dear old U. S. A. All the resi-.
dences are built alike, are low and
antiquated in comparison to Ameri-
can homes.
Street cars are very peculiar. They
come up on the left side Of the street
when there are two tracks on the
same street. They are very much
shorter than ours and are double
decked like cattle or hog car. First
class passengers ride below and sec
ond class ride above. The decks are
painted different colors, which GER
tainly looks odd to me.
The streets are very narrow, about
like some of the narrowest in Cincin-
natl, paved with cobble stones.
The houses l spoke of have the
same number of chimneys, are built
of brick, roof of red tile and very low.
If you look up street of these houses
it looks like factory of great length
built on a sidewalk. The only way
you know that they are houses is by
the doors and line of chimneys.
English girls run the street cars.
Some are pretty but l think the U.
S. girls will do for me.
To hear the expression thousands
of foreign soldiers arrived today,
mee2:1g Americans, sounds so odd as
/ am not used to being called for
eigner
The English money is easy to count
but is peculiar in size and form. The
following are some of the pieces we
use:
English 1c, American, 2 cents:
pence-6 cents.
6 pence-12 cents.
1 shilling, "a cents.
1 florence, As cents.
Half crown, 60 cents.
l pound. $3.50.
1 imagine that it is possible we will
move soon.
In England the sun sets at $3.50 D.
m. and there is only about five hours
of darkness.
On the bakery windows you see the
sign, Fresh bread, Not for Sale"
Newspapers in this country are
about the size of an American Sunday
school paper. Small English boys run
out to the American boys and shout,
Give me cent They want a penny.

eft of the daubt, but when in clear
ing up these ruins they come upon in
disputable evidence of Teutonic saw
agery it has very different effect.
An American showed me doll house
which had been stamped flat under
a German boot with the dolls laid
around it each with it's face ground
into the floor by nailed German
heel
There were much more horrible
things in the house-things beyond de-
scription-but the American rightly
picked that out as most characteris-
tic and most dastardly. With a look
on his face that would have warned
any opponent to keep his distance, the
American said: THE next damned
German that tries to murder me had
better make sure that he makes no
mistake about it."

The following is a recent letter to
his mother who is living in Indianap-

Just few lines to let you know

my last letter. Now mother, / don't
want you to be alarmed at my being
at hospital for we have real honest
to-goodness American ladies for nurs-
eS.
. AS told you in my last letter there
is nothing seriously wrong with me,
and no need whatever for you to be
worried about me, for l am on my
feet now, and sometime will undergo
minor operation.
Instead Of worrying, you should feel
al 1.-The better at knowing / am safe.
You ought to have the feeling l did
when / arrived here and saw real
American woman. l wanted to jump
right at her and give her real good
hug. Then my thought was carried
back to you and sisters and brothers
who are doing so much to help us.
1t is the real thing like this that
wakes some of us up. There is not
an hour that passes that do not think
of you and all the ones back at home.

upward tendency in the cost of lifes

crease in the cost of living by award
ing to Mrs. Cecelie Maria Giness ALI

salary earned by Thomas F. Giness,
from whom she obtained separation.
Giness receives 5000 a month.

a high percentage of his salary, but
with eggs at 81 dozen, butter at 95

much money with which to clothe and
