History repeats itself! This is th' week which marks the time of the greatest suffering of man. for the greatest good.
 Nearly two thousand years ago, our Lord suffered the Az ony of the Cross, that we might live, and this 1918 Passion Week is marked by the greatest battle in history.

 The news we get is very meagre and often un-authentic: but we do know that the final desperate German offensive is on.
 The Kaiser says that this is the last German drive before peace, and his men are advanc- ing en II asse, to be mown down like grass. The new prisoners ad init that all Germany's skill and men are being concentrated on this drive.
 The Allies suffer heavy losses and the strain is great. At this moment twenty seven British divisions are holding back nine

Get New Kidneys :!

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body, and when they
fail III their work of hltering 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 a 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 a 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 \ 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 unfaihng remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
1t is the pure. original Harlem Oil your
grandmother used. About two cap
sules each day will keep you toned up and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store. and
II 1t does not give you almost immediate
relief, your money will be refunded. BE

blast almost whirled him from his seat
