DANGERS OF A COLD.
Grenada People Will do Well to Heed
Them.

Many bad cases of kidney trouble
result from a eold or chill. Congest-
cd kidneys fall behind in filtering the
poison-laden blood and backache,
headache, dizziness and d~isordered
kidney action follow. Don't neglect a
cold. Use Doan's Kidney Pills at
the first sign Of kidney trouble. Fol-
low this Grenada residents example:
A. D. Collins, proprietor grocery,
First ST., says: "a year ago / got a
severe cold which settled on my kid
neys and made them weak and disor-
dered. My back ached by spells. l
was generally run down and / had a
tired feeling while the attack lasted.
I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised
and decided to try them. l got a box
at the End Class Drug Store, and after
using them. my trouble disappeared
and l felt better in every way. l
have never had a return Of the COM
plant since"

simply ask for a kidney rernedy-get

To Avoid Dan ger

Archbishop Mundelein Reported to
Have Warned Priests of Diocese.

The Chicago Daily News carries
the following interesting notice:
An important warning given to
the Catholic priests of the Chicago
archdiocese forbidding them to dis
cuss Sim Feinism during the pres.
ent war has come to light in con-
1ection with the severe setback
which Sim Fein propaganda has re-
ceived in this city and vicinity.
It was upon two occasions during
meetings of the priests of the arch
diocese assembled in monthly coun-
ellis that Archbishop Mundelein gave
his orders regarding the Sim Fem
movement. The fact that these con-
ferences are held in executive session
delayed the important stand of the
Archbishop from being made public.
Extensive discussion in clerical cir
cles regarding the Sim Feiners has
become known to the 1aity and has
excited much interest. Some of the
clergy declare that the stand taken
by the Archbishop will prevent Sim
Fein propaganda from getting fmpor-

Camp Dodge News Of our Boys

These are serious days for the boys
who are doing much thinking for
themselves. Never before, we venture
to state, has the hereafter played upon
the minds of men in the heyday of
young manhood as now. There is a
feeling that the soul too has need of
preparation, of care and of religious
treatment. There is craving for
spiritual drill and discipline. A re-
ligious atmosphere overhangs the
4-IRISH-Twenty-tw FAS
Camp, finding it's greatest density
around the X. of G. buildings. Truly
inspired of Heaven has been this great
Catholic organization, which acts as
agent of Mother Church, enabling men
to return to the practice of the faith
and pursue the path of grace. Truly
too, the religious work being accom-
plished, the results being achieved in
the Camps here and in France espe-
cially will be recorded fully in one
place only and that in Heaven.
The recruits that arrived towards
the end of last month will emerge from
quarantine this week. Nor have they
been idle during this time, being al
ready initiated into work even at the
rifle range. Wonderful how our boys
assimilate training. 1t is the marvel
of military life today. They will be
sure glad to breathe the air of free
dom once again and enter army life
under normal conditions.
Last week 1924 privates arrived
from Camp Funston and were assigned
f, to various organizations of the Hun
husker division. This is the first big
| contingent Of enlisted men coming
from another Camp. On arrival, they
intuitively sought the K. of G. build
ings, having learned at Funston what
| X. of G. service means.
| Movies were the chief attraction of
the past week. At building No. 2 an
impromptu musical was staged under
the leadership of Lieut.. Eppey of the
Depot Brigade, assisted by some Des
Moines ladies'. The first Friday was
duly observed, many of the boys re-
ceiving Holy Communion. Sunday the
usual eight Masses were celebrated
the number of Communions being
three hundred and fifty-six.
| Fraternally yours in Christ,

Princess insists
On vindication
Pope's Efforts in Reconciliation of
Royal Couple Were Partially Sue
cessfuI, But Recent Developments
Are Likely to Complications.

London, July 8.-Recall of the papal
nuncio to Vienna, which was demand
ed six months ago in connection with
family troubles of Emperor Karl, will
be carried out, according to reliable
information from Rome today.
At the time the recall was first
asked, Pope Benedict refused to &C.
quiesce, believing the nuncio was JUS
titled in siding with Empress Zita.
The pope's. efforts at reconciliation
of the royal couple were partially sue
cessful, but recent sensational revela-
lions are likely to lead to compiled
tions. It is reported that Empress
Zita is determined upon public vindi-
cation.

Camp Dodge, Iowa.
July Sth, 1918.

To the Editor.
From break of day till away after
dusk intensive training holds sway.
There is no cessation. With willing
hearts the boys bend to the yoke.
Upon the anvil of willing sacrifice
there is being pounded out those quail
tiles that ultimately force victory.
The spirit of the SSth division is fight.
Officers and men are eager for the
fray, displaying admirable self-control
in their anxiety to get over there.
The Camp Dodger-the official organ
of the Camp-put it tersely thus last
week: cat the end of two weeks of
gruelling, intensive training, the whole
division has swung into the momen-
tum for the last upgrade pull on the
way to France. The spirit with which
every man in the command has
shouldered the additional burden of in
creased hours and more rigid disci-
pline forecasts big things for the fu-
ture progress. The long hours, the
rigorous physical strain, the nervous
keying up of everything which has
gone with the new schedule have been
viewed as a part of the big duty to
be performed-all have been carried
through in soldierly manner. Com
plants at the withdrawing of earlier
privileges have been few. The men
have set their jaws firm and gone in
to finish the job. A foreign officer
last week declared that such an in
tensive schedule as is now in effect
at Camp Dodge could never have been
considered in his service even in the
most urgent times. Even American
officers of the regular army declare
that now we are SURPRISING anything
before attempted in this country in
the way of speedy and thorough train
ing for war. The record for these
first two weeks draws one big con-
clusion. The soldiers realize that
France and the fighting are at the end
of the road. The more rapid the pro-
gress here SO much more speedy will
be the departure for overseas. Each
soldier of the 8Sth has pledged himself
to the winning of the war. Over this
nothing else counts"
This preparation of things material
