Paris People Should Not Wait Until
# HISTool Late


The appalling death rate from kid
ney disease is due largely to the fact
that the kidney troubles are usually
neglected until they become serious.
The slight symptoms often give place
to chronic disorders and sufferers
may slip gradually into some serious
form Of kidney complaint.
If you suffer from backache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the Kidney Sc
cretions are irregular of passage and
unnatural, do not delay. Help the
kidneys at once.
Deans Kidney Pills are especially
for kidney disorders-the act where
others fail. Over one hundred thous-
and people have recommended them.

FRENCH AND BRITISH TROOPS
IN THREE.MILE ADVANCE

LONDON, Aug. 5.-The Franco
British attack on the westerly side
of the Marine salient yesterday was on
front of Ave miles and penetrated
to a maximum depth of three miles,
according to news received to-day.
1t resulted in the capture of the en-
shed between the Ourcq and the
Aisne, the advices indicate.
The situation is considered as ex-
traordinarily good, being described
in the advices as the turning point
of the summer campaign and possibly
of the whole war.
The French also captured the en-
tire Neuniere wood, on the line to
the west of Goussancourt, at about
the center of the salient.
The advance by the Allies along
the western side of the salient is
described as extremely important
possibly the most important thing the
Allies have accomplished since the
Germans retired from the Marne.
The importance of the victory, it
is explained, lies in the fact that the
new Allied positions commanded the
whole area to the northward and
take in flank and rear, the entire
western gate through which the Ger
mans have been retiring. This area
is a nest of German reserves and field
artillery.
| Goussancourt itself has been taken
by the French, the advices add.
The capture of the important
ground on the heights to the westerly
side of the. line also. means that the
Germans will not be able to retire in
an ordinary ieisurely way, and that
they probably will have to go beyond

MAN POWER OF HUNS
Germany's Full Strength Is Now
100000 Men.
$4,000 Are on Various Fronts, the
Remainder Are Guarding
Neutral Frontiers.

Paris.-The Echo de Paris, referring
to the distribution of enemy forces
on the different fronts, says:
con the Franco-British front there
have been for several months past 152
German divisions, of which 81 were
opposed by the British and the remain
der by the French. Following the re-
cent British offensive at Cambria, this
proportion was modified. There are
now exactly 154 divisions on the
FrancO-British front, each comprising
about $3.50 bayonets, and including
artillery, engineers, etc., or about r.
600 men in all, thus giving about q
100000 German combatants on the
Tranco-British front.
"In view Of the uncertainty Of what
Russian anarchy has in store for them,
the Germans have left about million
men on the Russo-Roumania front. AS
q matter of fact, the movements eff
fected have resulted not in diminu-
ton Of the number Of fighting units
on this front, but in their quality.
"On the Italian front Germany has
sent to the assistance Of the 40 Aus
trian divisions only seven divisions, or
about 100000 men.
con the Balkan front she has sent
only 10000 combatants to re-einforce
the Turks and Bulgarians. In Asia
Germany has restricted her help to
furnishing general staffs.
consequently Germany, whose total
strength is 100000 men, has on the
various fronts 100000 men, the re-
mainder being required for guarding
the Swiss and Dutch frontiers and for
the occupation of, the invaded terri
tories"

UNSUITABLE SHIP

New York, Feb. 11.-Means have
been found to make troop transports
unsuitable by submarine, according
to a statement made by William L.
Saunders, vice chairman of the naval
consulting board, in an address at a
dinner of the University of Pennsyl-
vania alumni in this city.
Mr.. Saunders said that one of the
ships recently Communicated by the
government nov lies at an Atlantic
port and in such shape that she cannot
be sunk by an exploding torpedo
Will Make Transports Safe.
Il can conceive of no reason why
this information should be withheld"
he added. con the contrary, / believe,
It is we'll that the enemy may come
to realize that the time has been
reached when American transports
which that enemy cannot sink are
ready for the transportation of our
troops. This ship may have hole
thirty or forty feet in diameter blown
IN hOA o1uC Iuu Will oAO"S'
Such a hole would waterlog but one
tenth of the honeycombed alright
cells"
Gives Detail of Plan.
Mr.. Saunders described in detail the
plan to keep ships afloat after they
had been torpedOed and the manner in
which it had been developed by Will
liam T. Donnelly, a New York marine
engineer, working under authOr1Za-
ton of the naval consulting board. .
1t is understood that the unsuitable
ship has no fewer than 10000 alright
cells.
"Of course it will take some. time to
equip similarly the large number of
transports we have" continued Mr..
Saunders. "It is my belief, however,
that nothing will be left unddne by
the administration to safeguard the
lives of large troop contingents to be
moved across the Atlantic"
Mr.. Saunders, in a statement cred
tied to him last May, asserted that a
solution of the submarine problem
probably had been found. Other
members of the board took issue with
Mr.. Saunders.
