epidemic has differed from those that
have gone before in that the largest

80 years of age, with fewer victims in
advanced years. In the first place, no

chance for the germs of rinauenza'
or pneumonia. Therefore 1 employ,
always with good results, simple,
harmless remedies, like bicarbonate
of soda, or, what is still better, a new
remedy discovered by DR.. Pierce and
to be had at drug stores as rAnuric"
(anti uric acid). These UAnuric"
tablets will neutralize the acids in the
system, render the urinary tract and
intestines antiseptic, besides flushing
the bladder and kidneys and carrying
off the uric acid and toxins (poisons).
After the attack of influenza or
pneumonia the kidneys are often
affected, and the victim suffers from
backache, frequent arising at night,
perhaps rheumatism or sciatica. The
"Anuric" tablets are then the natural
remedy, and most efficient. After
influenza there is usually marked
prostration, pale (anemic) skin, poor
appetite, weakness everywhere, and
gently acting tonics should be taken
to build up. Sometimes an iron tonic
is best, such one is made up of a
soluble iron, nux and herbal extracts
known as "1rontic"; or an herbal
extract made from wild barks and
roots, without alcohol, known as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
and sold for the past fifty years by
nearly every druggist in the land.

MOST OF FRENCH PLANTS
BACK TO PEACE WORK

PARIS, April 20 Correspondence Of
French manufacturing establishments
which were converted into plants for
the making of war materials at the
outbreak of hostilities have already
returned to their peace-time work.
Many others which were created
especially for war industries have
either been transformed, or are in the
process of being transformed, for
employment in peace pursuits. Gen.
orally speaking. there has been a re-
duction in the personnel employed in
all these plants. pending the COM
pletion Of the alterations necessary
in the equipment.
Some Of the peace-time manufac-
tories which were adapted to war
work will need comparatively few
changes but those establishments
which were born of the war, such as
aviation works. will have to make
important alterations. Throughout
the latter class of manufactures there
has been reduction in the number
Of, employees.
Some Of the war plants. whose con-
tracts have not yet expired. have
kept part of their personnel busy by
eight and seven hours.
The effect on labor of the cessation
of hostilities may be seen from the
figures of employment in some of the
great French industrial centers. In
ten Of these districts from which re-
ports have been received the total
number of plants engaged in war
work was $50. They employed be-
fore the armistice $751; 1924 men and
109.775 women. The total number of
employees has been reduced now to
194.64S men and 4S,76S women.

The government has decided, it is

try place near Potsdam where the
crown prince was living with hts chill

father and is the private property of
