One Of Interest to Our Readers.
Good news bears repeating, and
when It Is confirmed after . long
lapsa Of time. even II we hesitated
to believe It at first hearing, we feel
secure in accepting the truth now.
The following experience Of a Devils
Lake woman is confirmed after two
years.
Mrs. W. E. Crawford, 1913 w. Sixth
st., says: II suffered, q great deal
from pain in my back and l was al
ways tired and languid. I had but
little ambition and I felt all WORKOUT.
Doan's Kidney Pills soon took away
all the distress in my back and I felt
100 per cent better in every way"
NO TROUBLE NOW.
Over two years later, Mrs. Craw-
ford said: "Doan's Kidney Pills have
no equal. l have been perfectly free
from kidney trouble since I took
tnem."
Price Coo, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get

At every National army and M.
tional Guard camp special omcers
have been detailed to have an eye
to the penny to be saved throuRh
careful conservation Of waste mate
rails. Refuse from the mess halls are
being placed In separate receptacles,
fertilizer from the stables is to be
sold to farmers living in the territory
Of the camps to save freight rates,
and garbage likewise is to be disposed
OF to the highest bidder among stock
men raising hogs.
Lieut.. Col. J. Austin Ellison has been
placed in charge Of the division Of
conservation. He has the distinction
OF having called the attention of the
war department to the vast saving
that would result If care were <
cised In disposal of refuse. Thus far,
the department has saved upwards Of
100000 on waste materials.
The garbage from the mess Of from
10 to Is soldiers, it is estimated, will
feed one hog q day. Hogs will gain on
an average Of pound a day on this
ration for the first $50 days, govern
ment experts have determined. The
refuse from each c&ntonment will be
sufficient to. feed 1900 hogs a Gay.
This means an increase of 1,46O,OOO
pounds Of pork for the country each
year.
Colonel Ellison has injected into
camp life a certain class distinction
in the disposal Of garbage. At the
camps the are Of the garbage is a
regular ceremonial. Waste material
is divided into classes, and a special
receptacle is provided for each class.
There is a a for bones, one for rope
and Irvine, another for rags, one for
paper, one for fats and tallow, one
for bottles, one for tin cans. another
for sweeping and pieces Of tobacco.
and still another for garbage.
Practically all Of the refusal is sold
Cans, bottles, bones, fats, paper and
rags have a ready market, and the
garbage proper is carted away for Z
hogs banquet. The worthless refuse Il
burned In order to adhere to the strict
sanitary regulations Of the camps.

NO AGE LIMIT FOR
WOMEN IN WAR WORK

There is no age limit for the
service Of women. in war work.
This fact has been demonstrat-
ed to the woman's committee Of
the council Of national defense.
: OF the thousands Of letters that
have come In recently from all
parts Of the country, begging
for some work which will be Of
real worth to the government,
one was from an elderly lady
! ninety-six years Of age, and one /.
from q little girl nine years
old. The old lady writes that
she would like to have some
definite war work to do, since
her son Is too old to be a SOL
dier. The little girl wants to
go to France as a messenger in
the Red Cross service. In
France, at the beginning Of the
war, the age limit for govern
mental service was placed at
forty years. All the women In
France are now working for
their country.

SMITHS SHOATS,
HAD ROUGH TRIP
Former Mayor of Barnes
town Run Down By
Freight Car Today.

James Smith, a former mayor of
Barnst0wn, and famiIiarly known
among his friends as Bull Dog" was
severely injured this morning when
the wagon in which he was driving
was struck by a freight car on the
Monongahela Valley Traction COM
pany's lines at the crossing on Buffalo
avenue in BarnstOwn.
Mr. Smith had brought into Barns
town a dozen fine shoats which he
was delivering TO customers and had
delivered several and was driving down
the avenue preparatory to delivering
the remainder. As he approached the
crossing he observed a street car com
ing and waited until it had passed and
started across only to be struck by a
freight car which was closely follow
ing the passenger car.
In a few seconds man, vehicle and
shOats were distributed along the
track. A passing automobile driven
by James Boyers. picked up the vic.
tim Of the accident who was suffering
severely from shock and bruises.
He conveyed Mr.. Smith to Fair.
mont hospital where he was found to
be suffering from a badly sprained back
and other injuries. The injuries are
not serious.
The horse escaped uninjured though
the wagon was completely demolished
Several Of the shoats were cut and
bruised about the bodies but none Of
them was killed.
II is thought a high bank along the
avenue and crossing DISTRACTED the
view Of Mr. Smith and caused him to
fail TO see the approaching street car.
Mr. Smith is a well known man Of
the vicinity Of Barnstown where he is
a familiar figure. He is about As years
Of age.

LOCAL DRAFT BOARD
HAS GOOD RECORD
More Than 500 Men of First
P"giStratiOn Are Now
in Service.

The local draft board Is Of the Opin-
ion that il has one Of the best records
in the state for percentage OF men of
the first registration in the service.
The local board now has more than
five hundred OF the men who regis
tered on June 5. 1917, in the service,
or a percentage Of more than thirty
per cent Of the total registration.
This is an Unusually good record
when the number OF men in other
classes and the number OF physically
inefficient registrants are subtracted.
Some draft boards in the state do not
have more than thirty per cent of
their registrants in Glass !. The To-
cl board put exactly forty per cent of
the first registration and about eighty
per cent Of the second registration in
the first class.
