Kidney Pills. .
Week after week, month after
month you've read their statements.
Would these Paris people recon-
mend any medicine if it were not
good?
Would they confirm and repeat
their statements after years had
passed?
Local proof is good evidence.
Testimony confirmed years after is
better evidence.
The following Paris mans state
ment leaves no room for doubt.
1t must convince every kidney suf-
ferer who reads it.
If your back aches-if you kidneys
are weak, profit by the experience of

Over four years later, or on No

A new story of the American
fighting mans reckless disregard for
danger which it is one of the great
est problems Of their officers to curb
was brought to Paris (France) by
Wilbur M. Wilson, Baptist cler-
gyman from Colorado, who went all
the way from Chateau Thierry to
Fismes with Pennsylvania regi-
ment in the drive which began in
July. ..r-..
with my own eyes," said Mr.. Will
son, Il have seen American boys
steal out from the trenches to a frog
pond in No Mans Land, calmly re-
move their uniforms and dive into
the cool waters with German shippers
not hundred years away in their
trenches. The American boy appears
to be absolutely unafraid. The greater
the number of casualties in his own
unit, the greater is his resolve to
make the Germans pay the price. His
morale increases noticeably every
time a comrade falls with German
bullets In his body"
Mr.. Wilson was in the front lines
for two months, serving in the uni
form OF the Y. M. c. A. Many times,
he says. he drove his truck ahead of
the field kitchens and furnished hot
drinks, smokes and sweets to men
who had had nothing to eat for two
days except their iron ration. Francis

law. was with him for two days north
of Chateau Thierry. He is on his way
back to America to aid in the United
War Work Campaign in which the

ton Army, National Catholic War
Council, knights of Columbus, Jew

CAN NOW EAT AND SLEEP IN
COMFORT.

If troubled with indigestion or
sleeplessness you should read what
Miss Agnes Turner, Chicago, ILL.,, has
to say: "Overwork, irregular meals
and carelsness regarding the ordinary
rules of health, gradually under
minded it until last fall I became a
wreck of my former self. I suffered
from continual headache, was unable
to digest my food, which seemed to
lay as dead weight on my stomach.
I was very constipated and my COM
plexion became dark, yellow and
muddy as I felt. Sleeplessness was
added to my misery, and would
awake as tired as when I went to
sleep. I heard of Chamberlain's Tab
lets and found such relief after TAX
ing them that kept up the treatment
for nearly two months. They cleans
ed my stomach, invigorated my sys-
tenn, and since that time can eat and
sleep in comfort. I am to-day entire
ly well"

A Democratic Congress the Surest
Hone.

The most nonsensical reason for
the election of Republican Congress
lis made by the Kansas City Star, the
paper that pays Col. Roosevelt a large
sum for his mouthings against Presi-
dent Wilson's conduct of the war. 1t
says that such result would be best
Tor the country because a Republi-
can Congress would support the Pres
ideAt enthusiastically" and criti-
else him "mercilessly." We have not
. doubt that a republican Congress
would do the latter, but there are
grave doubts that it would do the
former. The President can rely only
on the enthusiastic support of his
real friends. Therefore, 1t is the
part of wisdom to return a Demo-
cratic majority to Congress and Ken
tuclky should lead the van by electing
Stanley Senator and each of the NOM
tnees for Congress. The latter have
never wayered in support Of the ad-
ministration and can be depended
upon to keep up the good work.
They should be reelected by increas-
ed majorities as a token OF approba-
ton for their course. Let every pa
trtot stamp under the rooster.

COAL |S TESTED
 ON LOCOMOTIVE

Approximately five tons of Ignite coal from Billy Lynn's mine near the camp at Residency 3 (35-mile) ) was loaded onto Locomotive No. PIP and she worked all of yesterday on this fuel, which is said to have given very satisfactory results. The amount of fuel consumed for the days work is not known, but the statement IS made that about half of the quantity put on remained in the bunkers at the end of the days run.
 She is again using this fuel today and it is believed that a comparative statement showing the relative merits of the two classes of fuel, wood and coal, will be avilable for publication in a short time.
 This is the first time this coal has been used on the locomotives and so far as known, with satis- factory results. It was previously used on the piledrivers working at the bridges across the Nenana river at 43-mile and on the bank erosion works near the 35-mile camp, and IS said to have been very satisfactory in every way.

SOUTH PUTS BAN
 ON STUDIO MOBS

LOS ANGELES.-Few, if any, motion picture plays containing "mob or crowd" scenes will be pro- duced in Los Angeles studios, ac- cording to producers, if a policy re- gently inaugurated by the police de- partment of Los Angeles is carried out.
 The police department recently announced it's decision that appear ing in Roman mobs, modern riots or wheat pit panics was not work es- sential to the winning of the war and that participation in sham battle for the films was not fighting in the sense intended by Provost Marshal General Crowder in his "work or fight" order.
 The police order was directed at what the profession termed "extras" who were hired by the day, first by one company and then by another to provide atmosphere" Most of the men thus employed were of the age and class included in the police order.
 When the first warning was not generally observed it was repeated and by way of emphasis about hundred men waiting for employ ment at several studios within the city were arrested. Some of these were taken before their draft boards, others allowed to look for more useful employment, while a number were held on vagrancy charges.

 On reaching the point from which he will commence to cut the new trail, he expects to engage the ser vices of several more men and push on with the work as rapidly as cir cumstances will permit and in order that it may be ready to haul on as soon as there is sufficient snow to make good sledding.
 MT. Cooney could not say de- finitely as to when the trail will be finished, but thinks that it will be ready for traffic in about six weeks from date.

ELEPHANTS MAY
 HELP AFTER WAR

P1TTSBURG.-John Ringling, cir. GUS owner, has determined to pro. pose to the Allied governments that African elephants be tanned and used in the reconstruction of France after the war.
 Because gun and shell fire at the battle fronts are slaughtering mules and horses by the tens of thousands, Mir. Ringling and Edmond Laplea, of the University of Louvain, Belgium, met in conference here the other day and discussed plans for using the heretofore African elephant in reconstruction work in Europe
 The men agreed that the loss of horses and mules could not be re- placed for many years, and, since African elephants may be found in vast numbers, and be tanned easily both felt positive that the Allies would assist in the shipment of the big beasts.
 "One elephant will do the work of 26 horses" said MT. Laplea, who has charge of the Belgian govern ment's business in the Congo. "Eu- rope must be reconstructed and there will be no horses. We are using the African elephant in carrying imber from the forest, in blowing and in all kinds of farm work. He carries and lifts beams and girders for the construction of buildings"

NEWS RECEIVED
 0F NENANA BOYS

F. B. Parkin, of the Waechter Brothers company, who had recently been at St. Michael, told a News rep representative that according to au- thentic reports he had received and which were later confirmed at St. Michael, the boys of Company B, 14th infantry left St. Michael on or about the 25th, for Nome, to await the arrival of the transport Buford, when they were to be ship ped with the Nome contingent to an unknown place, possibly on e of the training camps in the States.
 MT. Parkin heard of this while at Holy Cross on his way down river. On arrival at St. Michael it was ascertained that the military authorities had made an effort to send the boys to Nome on the steamer Thomson, but failed to ret her, owing to the fact that she was not fitted to accommodate the num- Der of men which they wished to send. The Thomson is a freight boat which brings the Waechter Brothers company's meat North every season.
