Are You Suspicious
Your Health?
One may not be actually sick, yet
feel so tired and languid, low-spirited
and ambitionless, that he can not
truthfully say he is in good health.
The kidneys work all the time, night
and day, and il is no wonder that
they become weak, sore or diseased.
Nearly everybody suffers from kid
ney trouble or bladder ailments.
Nature gives warning signals by back
ache, lameness, stiff joints, sore
muscles, rheumatic pains, pufiness
under the eyes and blurred vision.

Foley Kidney Pills as in my case they re.

bothered me for several months. A low

aches and pains and in the end may lead to
serious illness. II you have any cause to
suspect that your kidneys need help. you
will make no mistake in taking Foley Kidney
Pills.

FL A TREATY

Coming from such a staunch Republican newspaper as the
Philadelphia Inquirer, the following editorial comment on the
peace treaty as it now stands in the United States senate is of
much significance:
"Hatred-hatred born of resentment-is the sole cause
for the situation in which the Treaty finds itself. President
Wilson slighted-yes, coldly ignored-the Senate. He re-
fused to invite any member of the Foreign Relations Commit
tee to Paris for consultation. Egotistically- he insisted upon
running the entire proceedings, and in their anger Senator
Lodge and some of his colleagues on the committee have de-
lberately cast craftsmanship aside, have refused to rise supe-
ror to partisanship and have decreed reservations for no rea-
son in the world except to vindicate their authority. Denied
the opportunity to help make the Treaty, they seek revenge
by erecting barriers which may not be overcome.
and yet they claim that they are opposed to the rejec-
ton of the Treaty! If they are honest-and most of the OPP
position has been downright dishonest and malicious-ther
way to ratification is clear. All that they have to do is to tone
down their reservations, throw out the preamble which re
quires Affirmative action by three of the Powers and ask the
Senate to adopt a resolution of interpretations.
Nothing else is needed. Anything more than this is
purposey intended to create trouble. Gould they subject per-
sonal animosities to real statesmanship, ratification would
quickly come. But they will not, hence the danger of the
defeat of the Treaty.
'And if the Treaty meets with rejection, does not the ill
advised leadership of the Senate realize what inevitably must
happen? What else than a Presidential campaign in which
the Democratic candidate-backed by Wilson, if not Wilson
himself-will make of Peace and the Peace Treaty a burning
if not the paramount issue? Is the Lodge leadership prepared
to risk splitting the Republican Party and keeping the Nation
in a turmoil?
For weeks the Treaty was deliberately held back in order
that the Borah- Johnson element might stump the country. The
at the doors of the Senate-problems of the highest importance
to the safety and the welfare of the Nation. 1t is essential that
the Treaty should be ratified and disposed of so that these
other matters may be TAX D up

FRESH AIR


Although physicians have long
known of the enormous value of
fresh air in maintaining health, the
surprising Importance of fresh air is
still not realized by the large ma
jority of the people. 1t is rare to
find the air of offices and workshops
as fresh as it should be; and this is
sometimes the case when the rooms
are not overcrowded as measured by
accepted standards.
The evil effects of insufficient fresh
air are strikingiy seen when large
assemblages of people gather in a
poorly ventilated hall, and as the
symptoms are so familiar to every
one. we need not dwell on them. The
i'll effects are much less striking when
sedentary workers spend day after
day in a poorly ventilated office or
shop, but they are not a bit less GER
tain.
DON'T BREATHE BAD AIR. Re-
cent Investigations have shown that
the effects ascribed to bad air. are
largely associated with faulty tenn
perature and humidity, and also with
the lack of motion of the air.
1t is generally agreed that the
temperature of the workroom should
not usually exceed 65 degrees Fair
enheit, and hal the humidity should
not be over SO per cent of the satur-
alton point.
In order to maintain these condi-
tons It Is frequently necessary to
exhaust the warm, foul air from the
workroom by means Of fans, in addi-
ton to supplying an abundance OF
fresh air. The simplest and surest
way to secure the latter is to con-
stantly keep the shop windows open
and let in fresh air from outside,

years eat daily? How long should
the same child sleep?
A. A growing child of eight years
will ordinarily eat as much as his
daddy. And if the family diet is sim
pie and well planned he will a al
most the same things, with the ex-
ception of raw vegetables, pickles
fried foods, rich desserts and tea OF
coffee, for which milk should be sub
stituted. For breakfast a child Of
eight should eat a cereal, some kind
of fruit, bread and butter and a glass
of milk. If inner is the hearty meal
1t consists of a small piece OF mea,
or stew, two vegetables, fruit. bread
and butter, glass of milk and a des-
sert. For supper he should nave 9
soup, soft egg or potato, fruit, preao

A child of eight should be in pee

my heart is sick with longing for the scenes my childhood
knew; for the woods where birds were thronging, and the pas
lures wet with dew; all the day I'm longing, wishing, for the
creek where I went fishing, and old Dobbn, tail %aswishing,
and the cow that murmured "Moo?' Oh, my present lot is
splendid, but I'm thinking, with a sigh, of the school that I
attended in the happy days gone by; and 1 hear the buzz and
clamor when the teacher used to hammer all the rudiments Of
grammar into boys, and made them cry. So I weary Of my
palace, though it is a sight to see, and I'd like to break a
galus climbing up an apple tree; for this stale life never varies;
and I'd like to swipe some cherries, and some melons and some
berries, and to rob a humble bee.
