Get New Kidneys

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body, and when they
fail in their work of filtering 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; highl,
colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad
der. These symptoms indicate q condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fata
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. Instan,
treatment is necessary in kidney and blad
der troubles. A delay is often fatal.
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules
For more than 200 years this famous prep
aration has been an unfailing remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
1t is the pure. original Harlem Oil your
great-grandmother used. About two cap
sules each day will keep you toned up and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store, and
If it does not give you almost immediate
relief, your money viii be refunded. b.

$4,000 MILES OF BARBED
WIRE STILL ON WAR LAND

Out of $4,000 miles of barbed wire
laid in France during hostilities only
5000 have been rolled up and re-
moved, and at the present rate of
progress it will take eight years to
clear the northern part OF the coun-
try of these dangerous entanglements,
according to reports received from
Paris by national Red Cross head
quarters here.
OF the entire area devastated in
France, it is announced, only about
100000 out of 100000 temporarily
destroyed acres have been cleared and
returned to farmers. Industrial life
is still almost as badly off as agri-
cultural, with only 5SS industrial
plants repaired out of 1850 destroyed.
Repairs have been made on about
one-tenth of the French homes
wrecked by shellfire, but most of
these repairs are only of the most
temporary sort.
The best the government has been
able to do SO far as transportation
