HELPFUL WORDS

From an Audubon citizen.
Is your back lame and painful?
Does it ache, especially after ex-
ertion?
Is there a soreness in the kidney
region?
These symptoms suggest weak kid
neys.
If so there is danger in delay.
Weak kidneys get fast weaker.
Give your trouble prompt atten-
ton.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak
kidneys.
Your neighbors use and RECON-
mend them.
Read this Audubon testimony.
Mrs. Matilda Delahoyde Leroy ST.,
says: Two years ago | used Doan's
Kidney Pills procured from Roberts
Drug Store and they acted satisfac-
torily. My back stopped aching and
my kidneys got strong. Doan's Kid
ney Pills gave me the first relief |
had had in a long time.
Price 60c at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Delahoyde had. Foster

THE AMERICAN BURIAL
OF A GERMAN SOLDIER


The STARS and Stripes" which is
the American trench paper, of May
81, gives an account of the death and
burial of julius Kramer, late pri
vate of the Fifth Company 61st Ger
man infantry. He was captured by
the French and was in i'll health. He
was removed to the American hos
pital near the French prison camp
and there carefully taken care of I'M
til May % when he died. He was a
German Evangelical Lutheran and
no minister of that denomination
could be found Therefore an Amer
lean protestant chaplain was assign
ed to take charge of the funeral SER
vices. The chaplain went among the
prisoners at the camp from which
Kramer had been transferred and
found a prisoner who had bible in
the German language. The chaplain
requested that the man and 1--WE
others go to the American hospital
chapel. At the chapel the services
were turned over to these German
soldiers, Kramer's own countrymen,
and the funeral service was conduct
cd in the German language. Scrip
lures We're read in German ana
prayers said in German, and the Ger
man soldiers sang Elm Tester Berg
and other German hymns. The Ger
man soldier was taken TO his grave
in an American ambulance. At the
side of his grave with bowed heads
the German soldiers recited the
Lords prayer in the German Ian
guage and then were conducted back
to the prison camp for Germans.
If the brutal soldiers of the kaiser
ever hear about the burial of one
of the kaiser's soldiers. it may be
something new to them. On most
occasions the kaiser's soldiers treat
decency and sentiment as if they
were evidences of cowardice. But
Americans will go on being decent
men and Christian soldiers wherever
the American flag floats.

Japan Plans Expansion Of Army
And Many; Result of Worlds War
Lessons Are Being Well Learned

""Thereupon, army authorities who
have seen the necessity Of newly or
ganizing army corps from the time
General Okla, now dead, was the var
minister. in view of the lessons learn
ed from the great European war and
of the urgings Of public opinion in
Japan, have planned to improve
arms and replenish army equipment.
Last winter, military maneuvers in
which divisions with three regiments
were pitted n against another fully
demonstrated the value Of the new
plan.
Plan is Outlined.
THE plan in brief follows:
"First-The goal Of the imperial
army shall be rs army corps.
"Second-The divisional units shall
consist of three regiments.
"Third-The three units system
shall be reserved for the regiments
for the present and principle shall be
gradually worked out throughout the
army.
"As a result the rs army corps
compared with the 21 divisions al
ready existing as part of the plan Of
establishing rs divisions, hat is, 90
regiments more than the present
strength.
Since the army proposal has a di-
rect bearing upon the naval extension
plan, q conference Of the elders Of the
navy was called. An agreement that
a new naval extension plan be estab-
lished, along with the army expansion
was made.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Reorganiza-
ton Of Japan's army into 25 army
corps and construction Of three feet
units, each of eight battleships n
eight cruisers OF latest type, is the
Japanese national defense program
to be ~inaugurated. according to the
Toxic Asahi.
1.-The national defense plan," the
Asahi say was decided in 1900 by
the general staff of the army and the
board of naval command, in view of
the lessons taught by the Russo-Jap-
anese war the conditions obtaining at
that time, and in accordance with the
memorial to the throne by Marshal
Prince Yamagata. 1t afterwards was
approved by conference and sanction
ed by the emperor, Moiji.
THAT plan, view from the present
standpoint, is inadequate.
Need of establishing a new de-
Tense plan by abolishing obsolete sys-
TENS is universally recognized. But
financial circumstances have not, per-
mitted It's ready execution, SO the new
plan has been postponed.
War Changes Conditions.
"In accordance with the decision
made during the Okuma ministry,
only a portion Of the complete nlnn
was established, namely, the increase
of the army by two divisions and the
establishment of an s and 4 naval
construction plan. But the great war
and conditions have changed consid-
erably the empires position. A new

DEPARTMENT OF
LABOR GROWING FAST
Many New Bureaus and Services,
Established Since the War, Have
Added Greatly to It's Work

Labor Day. 1918, marks almost a
new era in the United States depart
metn of labor, for it witnesses the full
operation of the great war emergency
labor program, which has tremen-
dously increased the scope of the de-
partmetns' work and has added eight
new bureaus to the departments or
ganization.
The great Importance of labor in
winning the war has been responsible
for the rapid growth of this part of
the governments activities. The pres
,ent organization of the department. of
labor, with its great employment
service covering all the territory of
the United States, and with its many
other bureaus, requiring seven build
ings in Washington for their housing,
far surpasses thes dreams of the few
labor leaders who more than sixty
years ago first suggested such a
branch of the United States governs
ment.
