The warden thinks Schalk got a

the wagon trying to look like the late
afternoon shadow of a chocolate eclair
the general passenger agent of the
outfit would have discovered him. But
he didn't until after he was several
blocks from the Tombs. Schalk then

Get New Kidneys !

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body, and when they
fail in their work of fltering out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begin to happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff.
ness in the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges-
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad-
der. These symptoms indicate a condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady, Bright's disease, for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay a minute. At the first in.
dication of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking
Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules, and
save yourself before it is too late. Instant
treatment is necessary in kidney and blad'
der troubles. A delay is often fatal.

relief in Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules

aration has been an unfailing remedy fol
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.

sules each day will keep you toned up ant
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store, and
if it does not give you almost immediate
relief, your money will be refunded. Be

MASQUERADES AS
PIE AND ESCAPES
Max SchaIk Gets Out of Tombs
by Concealing Himself in
Bakers Wagon.

New Ysrk.-Daring escapes have
been made from the Tombs by all
sorts of methods. To Max Schalk goes
the distinction of leaving Warden
Hanley's castle of culture by means of
a pie wagon.
Schalk, who had been transferred
from the workhouse, was heaving
coal in the courtyard of the Tombs.
The big gates opened and in came a
pastry cooks wagon. The driver
crossed the courtyard with a basket
brimming with goodies, pies among
them. 1t was known Schalk liked
pies.
Now listen to Warden Hanley:
Il am not trying TO deprive Schalk
Of any credit for his getaway, if he
planned it. If he did, and nerve was
water, he would be the Pacific ocean.
