The men on the firing line represent

Many times the kidneys were to blame.
If we wish to prevent old age coming

that you should drink plenty OF water

pure water, take Anuric three times day
for a month. 1t sells for 6Oc.

REASONS FOR MEASURE
Outlined BY Garfield in Explain
atory Statement.
Fuel Administrator Says Order Dis
tributes Burden of Patriotic De-
NAL ImpartialIy.

Washington, Jan. 18.-Fuel Admins
traitor Garfield has issued this state
lnent in connection with his order
suspending operations of manufacture
ing enterprises:
Adverse weather conditions in the
recent week and inadequacy Of pres
ent coal supply and transportation ia
cilities to meet wartime demands have
made necessary immediate restrictive
measures as to use of coal in that
part of the United States east of the
Mississippi river.
"The movement of coal in transpor-
tation must be SO directed as to aid
director-g general Of railways in dealing
with the railroad emergency created
by recent blizzard conditions. Domes-
tic consumers of coal must be kept
warm and other absolutely necessary
consumers must be supplied.
"All industry must be fully restrict
ed in its uses of coal in order that
available supply for the remainder of
the winter may be properly distributed
and be made sufficient for absolutely
essential need during the remainder Of
the winter.
Emergency Measure
ITO meet these necessities the fuel
administration has ordered as an i'm
mediate emergency measure that on
the days of January 1&, 10, 20. Il and
% preference and priority in use of
coal shall be given only to those con-
sumers whose consumption Of coal is
absolutely necessary. These include
in order, railroads, domestic consum-
ers, hospitals and charitable institu-
tons, public utilities ships at tidewat-
er for bunker purposes, United States
government use, municipal or county
governments for necessary public use,
manufacturers Of perishable food, or
food for immediate consumption.
During the five days designated
no manufacturing industry shall be
allowed to operate, even if it has
its own coal supply on hand. By this
means all industry will be placed on
an equal footing and each will be
called on to make it's share of the
nation at the highest possible point
Of military and economic efficiency
for prosecution of the war.
Burden of Denial.
"The order under which these re-
strictions are made is designed to
distribute with absolute impartiality
the burden of patriotic denial. All
classes of business are treated alike.
"The United States Fuel Admins
tration counts on complete patriotic
cooperation of every individual firm
and corporation affected by the order
in its enforcement. Every effort will
be made by the fuel administration
and other government officials
charged with enforcement Of the order
to carry out the plan proposed with
out undue interference with the or
binary course of business.
"It is the earnest desire of the
fuel administration to prevent en-
tirely any permanent dislocation of
industry or labor"
