Bates, Jr., with the American expedi-

boy scouts the world around are very
much the same:
yesterday while on the road I met
a party of French boy scouts with
whom I had little chat. They even
shared with me some little biscuits
which they had for lunch.
"Hiking back to their mut h-bom-
barded town In the rain, they made a
decided impression and very happy
one, for I imagined myself back again

Get New Kidneys !!

The kidneys are the most .overworked
organs of the human body. and when they
fail in 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 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 minute. At the first in
dication of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking

To Save Vessels From SINKING.

Interest has been aroused by an ap-
paratus that has lately been developed
to save ocean vessels from sinking
after being torpedOed or damaged by
collision. The contrivance, which is
shown in Popular Mechanics Maya
zine, comprises Eliminated steel disk,
to the center of which Is attached a
series of rubberized canvas cone
shaped buckets. In use, the end cone
on the chain would be lowered into
the water in the vicinity Of the hole
in ships hull. Upon being caught by
the inrushing water, 1t would be pulled
through the opening. The whole string
of buckets would then be lowered along
with the disk SO that the latter
would be pulled In place over the
break. The cones, being Of flexible ma
terial, would be able to pass through
an aperture, regardless Of its shape.
The disk. once in place, would be held
