CHILDREN ASKED TO SAVE
FRUIT PITS AND NUT SHELLS

Pits from fruits and nut shells for
making carbon are needed by the
government and the school children
OF the State are asked to help win
the war by saving the pits. Poison
gas was one of the first fruits of
Ku1tur. 1t stings, blinds and kills.
Charcoal or carbon made from fruit
pits and nut she'll is used to neutral
ize it.
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton Gilbert is calling on the school
and teachers to or
ganize clubs to save the bits. They
should be dried thoroughly in the sun
before being turned over to collect
ing stations. Pits from peaches, april
cots, pfums, cherries and prunes and
shells from hickory nuts, walnuts
and butternuts are used to make car
bon or charcoal. Two hundred peach
pits and seven pounds of nuts pro-
duce enough carbon for one gas respf-
rator.
The campaign throughout the Unit
ed States for. the collection of fruit
pits and nut shells is being waged
by c. D. Strayer, Division of Educa-
ton, National War Savings Commit

tie Rest or Comfort.

There is little sleep, little rest, lit
tie peace for many a sufferer from
kidney trouble. Life is one continual
round of pain. You can't rest at night
when there's kidney backache. You
suffer twinges and "stabs" of pain,
annoying urinary disorders, lameness
and nervousness. You can't be COM
Portable at work with darting pains
and binding dizzy spells. Neglect
these ailments and serious troubles

Thousands have testified to their

Proof of merit in Paris testimony:
Phillip M. Heller, proprietor meat
market, 1872 Main street, says: II
have used Doan's Kidney Pills a few
times in the past and have been
greatly benefited. At times my back
was weak and lame and the kidney
secretions passed too frequently,
making me get up often at night. /
have used a box of Doan's Kidney

IF THEN-WHY NOT NOW?

Unity of action in Washington is
as essential to the success of the pres
ent war as it was during the Spanish
American war, if anything, more so,
because the task is much more gil
gantic.
Republican leaders claimed it then,
a Democratic administration might
claim it now, and the claim in both
instances would be we'll founded.
The chance for unity of action is
increased by electingto both Senate
and House men of the Presidents
party.
Support the President" was made
the issue in 1898, when Republican
leaders made the concerted plea to
the people that the defeat of McKin-
ley's party at the polls would be
misinterpreted in the capitals of
Europe.
Support the President" should be
the issue now, when the election OF
men of the Wilson party to the Sen
ate and House will indicate that
there is as little break in the ranks
here as there is in our ranks on the
battlefield lover there" and when the
contrary now-as claimed then
would be misinterpreted in the CAPT
tails of Europe and construed "as a
refusal to sustain the war" and our
aims in the war.
And so the principal issue in the
fall campaigns this year is the same
as it was in the fall campaigns in
1898. The Republicans used it then.
The Democrats should use it now. 1t
won out then. 1t will win out now.

Autos As A Necessity.

The Fuel Administration evidently
did not mean to restrict rural resi-
dents from riding to church in auto
mobiles on Sunday when its request
stated that motor vehicles on err
rands of necessity in rural commun1-
ties where transportation by steam
or electricity is not available" were
exempt from compliance with the re-
quest.
For, as the Louisville Evening
Post has pointed out, "the use of au-
tomobiles as a necessity depends not
on a day of the week, but on the cir
cumstances of the occasion" Ger
tainly a mans spiritual needs con-
stitute a necessity. And most assur-
eddy one should be permitted to go to
church in ford, if not in an auto
mobile. For, as some wag has re-
marked, a Ford will jar the devil out
of him before he gets to church.
But, seriously speaking, or writing,
rather, the roads were alive in this
vicinity Sunday, Sept. LIST, with au-
tomobiles who were not on their way
to church. That's a dead moral GER
tainty. They may have been using
church-going as an excuse for that,
but it was to the observer plain
"joyriding."

A Tip to Sugar Lovers.

xhe situation thus: At breakfast
each morning she places on the table
IN the. sugar bowl the days supply
cf sugar for the entire family, for all
Durposes. Father and the children
help themselves and keep a close
watch on each other. At the end of
xhe day If any sugar remains in the
Bowl; it is transferred to a reserve
xupply, saved for dessert, and the
bowl is replenished with the stipu-
hated ration for the new day. When
there is enough sugar in the reserve
supply for a simple dessert the fam
ily have treat. It's up to them. The
result is that from the oldest to the
youngest the members Of the family

Keep Your P0ise.

We are all of us at little tension
just now. The war is becoming
very real thing, and we have been
reused thoroughly out of our regular
routine. There has been big shift
of values. What once was of minor
Importance has become big, and what
once filled the whole heavens is be-
ing put aside as nonessential. We
are looking at life from a new view
point.
Consequently this is the time of all
times in which the individual should
keep watchful hold on himself. He
needs to take care that while he is
adjusting himself to new social and
industrial and economic conditions
and while he is acquiring new
moral viewpoint-for it is unques-
tionably true that some of the vir-
tues of yesterday have become the
vice of to-day and contrariwise- he
does not allow any deterioration of
his general standards or of his power
to see clearly.
There never was a time in which
it was more necessary for a man to
possess his soul in patience"
And perhaps the beginning of the
duty of the man of to-day to himself
and to his neighbors and to the State,
is the preservation of his nervous
poise. For on the preservation OF
this depends in considerable measure
everything else.

France continues to bend under the at

almost everywhere is in retreat toward
new positions. But his retreat is Or
derby and the British, French and
Americans are being compelled to fight
their way forward slowly in the face
of enemy. machine-gun detachments
acting as rear guards
Highly important strategical posi-
lions have been wrested from the
enemy by the British and French,
while on their sector of the front the
Americans have further advanced
their line on both sides Of the Meuse,
obtaining the objections they sought.
The British advance after days OF
hard fighting has brought them at
last to the gates of DOuai, which long
has held back the British from closing
| in upon the great bend in the line
| which has Lille as its center ana which
has been considered by the military
experts as the Keystone to the German
defense system through northern Bel
