REPAaTEE THAT HAD STING
Barber Made Some Little Mistake
When He Started to "Hid" the
Youngster in Khaki.

It was all the barber's fault. He
had no business kidding the young
boy. Goodness knows, the man in uni.
form never said anything TO the bar
ber before. This was the way Il was:
The young soldier was a frequent
visitor at the barber shop on the ave
nue.. He didn't have so much of a
beard, but yet 1t demanded shaving
once in a while. The barber had no
ticed that the hey only came in on
Saturday evenings,
So he said: "Say, son, how's it come
you step in here only on Saturday
nights? Don't you need shave often
er; can't you get leave, or won't you
pay union prices?'
The boy blushed. Il get the leave
all right, and Uncle Sam pays me
about as often as any boss barber. but
you see, l shave myself once a week,
and let you shave me once week,
too"
$50 you're just on semi-friendly
terms with the safety. eh?" urged the
barber.
| "Oh, wouldn't say that" replied
the soldier. "You see, have two girli
in this town. One I see every Wed
nesday. Then l shave myself. Th'
other I see every Saturday. Then
pay you the fifteen cents. Mary like

Daily Health Talks
q WORD ABOUT THE KIDNEYS
BY DOCTOR WATSON.

People are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and well they
may be; but few people understand
the dangers of diseased kidneys. These
organs have duty of vital Importance
TO perform, and il they are diseased,
there is no telling how or where the
symptoms may appear. The kidneys
are filters, and when they are healthy
they remove the poisons from the blood
and purify it. When the kidneys are
diseased, the poisons are spread every
where, and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all
through the system and deposited in
various places, in the form OF urate
salts in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back = often forming bags under the
eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble
is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Bright'i
disease. "lt
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, in recen
wears, discovered that certain com
bination of remedies would dissolve url
acid (urate salts) in the system. HI
'ound this combination to be harmless
80 that he made it up in tablets
of double strength, and called then
Anuric Tablets. They dissolve url
! acid in the human system as hot COTE
dissolves sugar. If you have uric aci
troubles, don't delay in taking Anuri
Tablets, which can be secured in tn
Z. drug stores. You can write DR.. Pierce
too, and he will tell you what to 9!
aud how to live so that more uric aci
will not form in your system. DR.. PierS

"Some of us had faith twenty years

What a great people the Jews are.
Their prophets two thousand years

after their Hebrew Prophets, they
were able to translate their prophe-

ISRAEL'S FRIENDS AND
ISRAEL'S WILL.


Wise at the Mass Meeting of the
Chicago Zionist Convention.)
Israel, the people of Israel have
been practiced for two thousand years
and more, in the art of forgiving our
enemies. The great Christian virtue,
as it is called, is virtue which we
Jews have honored and ennobled our
selves by monopolizing, but if we for
get our enemies, we never, never for
get our friends.
"In the old days, under the old or
der, in a world of injustice and op-
preston and unrighteousness and the
denial of liberty, Israel was sur
rounded by world of enemies; but a
new day has come, new order is
about to dawn new world to live in,
and in the new world Israel is to
know only friends, because the new
order is to be an order of justice and
freedom.
81 say that we do not forget our
friends, friends within and friends
without Israel. We have friends We
have not sought these friends, we
have noe sought these friends, we
have not craved the favor of these
friends. They are our friends because
in the hope Of Israei and in the res
toration of Zion there is to be found
the symbol Of all that for which the
Allies fought, and which they won for
all time to come.
eve have friends, and our friends
are the friends of justice. Our friends
are the people who love right. Our
friend, are the nations wherein the
better and the nobler things of life
obtain. The friends Of democracy are
the four great democracies of the
earth, America, England, France and
Italy. Over and above noble Britain
and glorious France and unyielding
Italy, over and above all is our Amer
lea. America represented by that
American who spoke not for himself
alone, though he spoke for himself,
but who spoke out of the heart and
conscience and passion Of all the
American people, when he promised
that he would do all that he could in
order to further the Jewish dream of
q Jewish homeland.

own? Because we willed it! We
willed it in our prayers, we willed it
in our hopea we willed it in our faith,
and we willed it in our deathless 10y.
atty.
"The will of Israel has brought the
great contamination to pass. We
were ready for it. All things were
ready for the people, and we were
ready, and as ! shall say, so long as
God gives US the strength to speak
for Israel, it was because Of the apir-
itual leadership and the moral genius
Of two men, Herzl and Brandeis.
Readiness, preparedness is not a
single act, it is a continuous process.
The fact that our preparedness was
begun twenty-three or four years ago
will not in and of itself suffice. The
fact that in some senses we were
ready year and two years ago; even
this will not suffice. One thing more
is needed. We must be ready, we
must be prepared now to answer the
summons Of our leader who has just
returned from the land Of Israel. His
cry is not "to arms" but ITO work"
That is the summons to Israel, to all
