What the Kidneys Do
Their Unceasing Work Hee ps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in The body passes
through the kidneys once every th-es
minutes. The kidneys filter the blooo.
They work day and night. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when un-
healthy some parts of this impure
matter is left in the blood. This.
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms-which vary widely but may in
clude pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheumatic
pains gout, gravel, disorders of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness, irreg-
ular heart, debility, drowsiness, drop
sy, deposits in the urine, etc. But if
you keep the. filters right the danger
is overcome. loans kidn.y Pills
have proven an effective kidney med
icine.

Editorial Shows Foes
Policy Is Short-Sighted

The thought and purpose behind the
following editorial printed few days
ago in an Eastern daily is big enough
to appeal to all Ninth District patriots.
"The war has got to come to an end,
and Germany may as. well recognize
the fact. Every hour of delay in rec
ognizing this is going to make matters
worse for her, every new atrocity she
perpetrates Is going to add to the sum
of her retribution. Bombing hospitals
and sinking hospital ships, judicially
numbering Belgians and wringing their
last franc from them, may be German
policy, but 1t Is uncommonly short
sighted policy. Just as Mr.. Wilson has
told the Wilhelmstrasse that Russia
must be left unpartitioned at the end
Of the war, so Mr.. Balfour tells the
Wilhelmstrasse that the German ex-
actions levied in Belgium will have to
be made good at the end Of the. war.
1T is, however, no good arguing with
nation running amuck. President
Wilson has realized this, and has de.
.termined that the only way to deal
with the question is by making 1t plain,
once and for all. that the United States
is going to put an effort into the war
which will be made realizable at once
The new draft which has been
planned, the new budget which has
been prepared, both these and much
more than these are going to be the
immediate contribution of the United
| States to making the world safe for
democracy. The soldiers of the United
States who have landed and fought in
Europe. know well by this time the
war weariness Of the Allies. who, for
four weary years. have fought the
armies of the new Attila backwards
and forwards from the frontiers Of
Belgium to the gates of Paris. Grad
.ually the people of the United States,
too. are coming to understand this,
and to understand what those four
years of struggle have meant to hu.
man freedom. And 30 now Mr.. Will
son, without proclaiming the fact, but
by Indications which any man may
read, makes 1t perfectly clear that the
bolt is going to, fall on Germany 81
simultaneously from the shores of the
North Sea to the rivers Of Mesopo-
.tamia, from the Arctic Circle to the
sunlit Adriatic, and from the harbor Of
Vladivostok to that Of Bordeaux. Such
conception is the greatest military
I! effort that the world has ever seen.
The richest and most powerful Of the
free nations of Europe are engaged in
It, whilst by their side and behind
them stand the vast power and tre-
mendous wealth and resource of the
greatest republic In the world. Ger
many, in short. is about to learn that
Mr.. Wilson was not playing with words
when he declared that, TO such task
we can dedicate our lives and for
tunes, everything that we are and
everything that we have, with the
pride Of those who know that the day
has come when America 10 privileged
to spend her blood and her might for
the principles that gave her birth and
happiness and. the peace which she has

SAVING DAYLIGHT.

The daylight saving plan which ssarted in many places on Saturday night and officially at 3 o'clock Mon = day morning, has inoonvenienced few sf any in this town, in so far as we are able to learn. There have been many humorous stories going the rounds sf queer effects the new law has had and one or two of them are indeed anghable.
 In Falls Village, so the story goes, a man turned the clock ahead one $ hour, then his wife turned it ahead am hour and later his son turned it shead still another hou1. The result was that this man was on the job Mon. day morning earlier than he should have been by two honrs. There is an. ether one, of party whose watch was au, hour slow and he turned it back sSill another hour, instead of ahead |, making him two hours behind time.
 Regardless of these little tricks, the daylight saving plan is sure to prove a success from every 3point of view. It gives the laboring mau a chance to do many little odd jobs about his home at night before darkness sets in and as s sst7e days grow longer the man who has a garden will appreciate this extra aour still more. .,s VI,

"Om boys must have their smokes. Send them cigarettesl" This is a familiar appeal now to all of us.
 Among those most in demand is the now famous toasted" cigarette LUCKY STRIKE. Thousands of this favorite brand have been shipped to France. There is something home like and friendly to the boys in the sight of the familiar green packages with the red circle.
 This homelike, appetizing quality of the LUCKY STRIKE cigarette is largely due to the fact that the Burley tobacco used in making it has been toasted. Its toasted" was the "slo- gan" that made a great success of LUCKY STRIKE in less than year. Now the American Tobacco CO. is making 15 million LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes day.

AMERICAN RED CROSS NOTES

first nurses to go to the relief of the injured who were brought to Naples were the members of this Milan school who gave such a. good account of themselves and so admirably dem Onstrated what merely two weeks of training had done for them, that en- thusiasm for the new school swept over the entire country. In many other cities similar institutions were imme-' diately opened and hundreds of young Italian women eagerly embraced this new profession.
 Three years later, ia August, 1911, Signora Camperio, still interested in the great work of training nurses for her country went to London, where she visited the London, the St Thom- as and Queen Alexandria, hospitals. She carried back with her many pre- Cious pamphlets an documents rela,- tive to the work, and returning to Milan aided by two enthusiastic friends whom she found awaiting her. apostles of reform in the hospitals of Italy, and committee composed of many prominent Italians. founded the Princess Jolanda Training School for Nurses under the patronage of her majesty the queen. The course in this most modern and up-to-date training school covered three years. At the outbreak of the present war the school and hospital were enlarged and turned into Territorial Hospital No. s: and today side by side with the Red Cross flag of the Princess Jolanda's hospital training school waves the tricolor of Italy.
 During the present war Signora Meyer Camperio has served for five months in a military hospital at the front only leaving to take up the work of aiding the women of her peo- pie who. with their men fighting in the trenches, have ha to take upon their own shoulders the work of the field as well as of the home. One Of the greatest ways in which she can be of help Signora Camperio believes is in the establishment of creches. or nurseries, for the children, so that the. mothers are enabled to earn their living in the fields and are assured at the same time of the well-being of their babies. Understanding as she does her own people and their needs tn American Red Cross has found ia this Italian woman an invaluable CO., worker; an Signora. Camperio on her part is ever ready to express her ap- preCiation of the efforts of the .AmerI- can organization to help the people of Italy who have borne so long alone and unaided the full measure of suf- fering a cruel war has brought upon them.
