mercancia con el pabell6n polfti-

Los bolcheviques invadieron
Ukrania en- la pasada primavera.
Querian trigo para mitigar la mi
seria de sus ciudades fam6licas.
Obligaron a reembarcarse los
franco griegos. Ocuparon incluso
la peninsula de Crimea. Persi-
guieron a los rumanos Y les forza-
ron a refugiarse en- la orilla occi-
dental del Driester. Batieron a
los socialistas patriotas de Petliu-
ia. Instalaron Ell Kief ell Gobier-
no de los Soviet, bajo la presi-
dencia de Rakowski el jefe de los
bolcheviques del Balkan.
Sc habia distinguido, en- tan
breye como decisiya campafa, un

genes muy dudosos. Mas ell II
de mayo, Gregorieff Sc sublevaba
contra Lenine y Trostky, y Sc pro
clamaba en- Odessa hetHaGie de las
provincias de Taurida y de Kher-
son.
En- un manifesto curiosisimo,
explieo las causas de su evolu-
ci6n theological y de su pronun-
ciamiento. Dijo que Sc hab1a
convencido, al contacto de la rea-
lidad, de que el bolcheyismo no
era possible en- Ukrania, terra
de pequefos propietarios, de cam
pesinos que no comprenden el co

DO You Want Your Kidneys Expert
mented On?

Kidney troubles are getting more
common every day. Government health
bureau figures say deaths from this
cause are II per cent more than &c
years ago.
Anybody who suffers constant back
ache, who feels blue, nervous and irri-
table; who has dizzy spells, headache
and urinary disorders should suspect
kidney weakness. Overworked kid
neys must have a rest. Take things
easier; live more carefully. Take a
good kidney remedy to build the kid
neys up again.
But be sure to get Doan's Kidney
Pills-the oldest, the most widely used,
the best recommended Of all kidney
pills, now in use all over the civilized
world. Don't experiment with your
kidneys. Thousands have already test
ed Doan's. You have their experience
to 60 by. Plenty of cases right here
in Shepherdstown. Here's one:
Mrs. Nettie V. Turner, Rockey ST.,
Shepherdstown, says: "My kidneys
were weak and | suffered from back
aches. Doan's Kidney Pills, which |
got at Hills Pharmacy, made me we'll.
| recommend their use to anyone suff-
ering from kidney trouble" (State-
ment given November 7, 1910)
On December II, 1916, Mrs. Turner
said: 81 haven't had any need of a
kidney remedy since last recommend
ed Doan's Kidney Pills. i consider
they cured me permanently"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Turner had. Foster-Mlburn Co.,
Mfrgs., Buffalo, N. Y.

Solar Fireworks.

We do not think OF water rs in any
way having the nature of an explosive,
yet one of its elements-hydrogcn-
when heated TO a high temperature is
one of the most explosive substances
known. On the surface OF the sun, as
writer in the New York Sun explains,
there are violent explosions OF highly
heated hydrogen gas-so violent that
they may be seen from the earth. AZ
times, according TO DR. Ellerman oil
the Mount Wilson Solar Observatory,
who discovered these hydrogen bombs,
as they are called, they follow one an
other like balls OF Roman candle az
intervals of ten or twenty minutes.
The duration Of the explosion is usual
" about two or three minutes; more
rarely, five or ten minutes The bombs
generally appear on the edge or nj one
side of sunspot groups that are in the
process of developing. Repeated ex-
plosions occur almost exactly in the
same place.
The presence OF the bombs Is re-
vealed by the appearance OF two in
tensely brilliant, narrow bands OF
uniform width on either side Of the
dark absorption line Of hydrogen that
is associated with the higher solar at
mosphere. The fact that neither the
dark itself nor any other OF the alb
sorption lines that belong to the va
ious strata OF the suns atmosphere Is
interfered with shows that the cx-
plosions occur at a considerable dis
tance below the chromosphere-the
lowest, densest layer OF the solar en-
velopes, in which are the majority OF
all the gaseous elements that compose

brilliant bands suddenly appear, one
on each side OF the dark absorption
line Of hydrogen, while he was obsery-

Will Build Two Giant Ships.

Two gigantic ocean liners, larger
than any ships now aHoat and designed
TO cross the Atlantic in four days, are
to be built by the u. S. Shipping Board.
They will be 1000 feet long and of 20
Gnots speed, and will be equipped FOR
use as commerce destroyers in the
event of the war.
Announcement is made by the board
that plans for the ships had been COM
pleted and that work on them would
be started in the near future, 1t is
proposed to provide a special terminal
for them at Fort Pond Bay, Long Island,
and it may be that two similar liners
will be constructed later.
The ships, which are TO be built un-
der the supervision of the Navy De-
partment, will be 50 feet longer than
the famous Leyiathan, now the largest
ship aaoat, and will have a gross ton
age of $1,000. Their draft will be IS
feet, depth IA feet, beam l02 feet, and
accommodation will be provided for
1000 saloon passengers, 800 second
class cabin passengers, and 200 steer
age passengers.
The crew will number 1000 officers
and men, and the ships will be OF the
oil-burning type, with cruising radius
of 1000 miles, which will enable them
to complete round trip on the Allan
tic without loading fuel overseas.
They will be driven by four propellers
on which will be thrown the strength
of 10000 horsepower.
In order that the vessels may be
converted into commerce desroyers in
time Of war, gun emplacements will be
built on the decks and the after deck
will be constructed with a view OF
transforming it into a landing and
launching space for seaplanes.
Construction of a terminal at Fort
Pond Bay, Montauk Point, will repre-
sent large outlay, but the boards
announcement said a great natural
depth harbor was provided there and
that. in addition, the location would re-
duce the voyage to Plymouth, England,
by 1lS miles, the distance being 2,S7s
miles as compared with 1896 miles
from New York city.
Next to the Leviathan, the largest
ship now aaoat is the Imperator, Of
5l.969 gross tons, which is now used
as an American transport and which
ultimately will be turned over TO Great
Britain. Her speed is only about q
knots. The largest British liner aioai
is the new Britannia, Of 4i,l58 gross
TONS

Liberty Versus Greens.

A colored man from Georgia had
lived in Washington but few days
when he was arrested for some slight
violation of the city ordinances. Up
on hearing that the negro was in jail,
the secretary of the colored Y. M. c.
A. secured the services of minister
to 60 with him and sign the prisoners
bail-bond. They reached the jail
shortly before noon, and told the negro
the object of their visit. In response
to the proffered kindness he said.
"Mistah Johnsing, | sho is glad you
all is gwine tab git me out, but | wants
you-all to fix it so | can't git out tell
late dis ebenin'."
OF course the two Samaritans were
somewhat taken aback by this unusual
request. But a moment later they lost
their breath when, in answer TO the
secretary's question, the Georgia
negro replied in a whisper:
"Well, sab, dey's a-gittin' dinnaf
ready, an dey's cookin' greens; an
sho would like TO git some O. den
greens befo' leabes dis place.
