Weekly Health Talks
A Word About the
Kidneys
BY DOCTOR WATSON.


People are easily frightened when they
think something is the matter with their
lungs or heart, and well they may be; but
few people understand the dangers of dis
eased kidneys. These organs have duty
of vital Importance to perform, and if they
are diseased there is no telling how or
where the symptoms may appear. The
kidneys are filters, and when they are
healthy they remove the poisons from the
blood and purify it. When the kidneys
are diseased, the poisons are spread every
where, and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all through
the system and deposited in various places,
in the form cf urate salts-in the feet,
ankles, wrists and back-often forming
bags under the eyes. Sometimes the result
ing trouble is called rheumatism, lumbago,
sciatica and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright's dis
ease.
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recent
years, discovered that certain combina-
IIUu VI Eclneuics WouAu oissoi'S uAiC aCio
(urate salts) in the system. He found this
combination to be harmless, so that he
made it up in tablets, of double strength,
and called them Anuric Tablets. They
dissolve uric acid in the human system as
hot coffee dissolves sugar. If you have
uric acid troubles. don't delay in taking
Anuric Tablets, which can be secured in
the drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce,
too. and he will tell you what to eat and
how to live SO that more uric acid will not
form in your system. DR.. Pierce will not
charge for this advice.

VOLT KILLS
HORSE HERE

A horse belonging to Jeff Owens,
loca. gardner was killed and Mr..
Owens badly shocked this morning
as he was tying the animal to an
electric light pole supporting trans
formers and wires of the Chickasha
Gas and Electric company. The acct
dent occurred just behind the build
ing occupied by the Crib store and
just west of the Indiahoma gin build
ing.
According to story told by Mr.
Owens after the accident at o'clock
this morning, the horse accidently
touched the pole which was wet
from the rain and apparently highly
charged. The death of the horse
was instantaneous, and Mr. Owens
himself received a painful, but not
serious shock
A high voltage Chief of Police
Linn says, passes through the trans
formers and wires supported by the
pole. 1t is believed the shortage is
somewhere in the ground wire, at
tached to the pole.
The horse was removed from the
ally by it's owner this morning.

Wisconsin, directing the engineering

superintendent of schools at Cleve-

There are fourteen colleges When
in full operation the university, to-
gether wit hthe agricultural college
nine miles distant, will accommodate
nearly 10000 men, housed in one

AIRPLANE LINE
FOR COMMERCE

London, March 20.-(By mail)-
Just as soon as aircraft regulations
have been definitely arranged by
the peace conference, an airplane
passenger and freight service will
be inaugurated between the principal
cities of England and the continent,
it is announced. It will be an eXpe-
riment only insofar as the whims of
the public are concerned as the fif-
teen machines to be used all saw
more trying service in night bombing
work during the latter months Of
tire war.
There is no doubt in the minds Of
the promoters that the project will
be popular at first among those who
enjoy adventure and are not ham
pe.ed by lack of funds, but, in max
ing the announcement OF the new
corviee, f. Handley-Page said that
his company wanted to put the ser
vice purely on a business basis and
that charges would not be out of
reach of the average merchant who
might want goods transported quick
" or make quick trips in Europe.
Windows Provided.
Announcement Of the plans was
made simultaneously with the first
public exhibition of q passenger-car.
lying airplane in London. The plane
is enc of the night bombers with the
fussilage equipped to accommodate
II passengers 1t saw service over
German cities but appeared much
different on exhibition. Huge glass
windows had been cut into the sides

fitted with heavily upholstered leath
er chairs lined on each side Of the
carriage with narrow isle between.

The machine has lifting capaci
ty of six and onehalf tons exclusive
of It's own weight, is fitted with four
two tractors and two pushers
an dtravels at an average speed of
100 miles an hour
Machines to Enlarge.
The company which will operate |
the service already has laid it's plans
for getting business and for feeder
tapping its main lines of
travel E. J. Bray, formerly Euro
epan traffic representative of the
National Railway of Mexico, has be-
come traffic manager of the Handley
Page, Ltd, and is at work on purely
the traffic end of the enterprise.
Those interested in the project
,oint out that as far as the machines
IRE concerned this is not an expert
nent and maintain that it is the most
plan yet conceived for
use of the airplane. No
especial effort will be made to get
great speed, but every effort will be
made, as the service increases, to
construct larger machines which viii
give passengers greater ease and
,reedom and will be capable Of car
'ying several tons of freight
