When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it may mean you have been eating
foods which create acids, says a
wellknown authority. An excess of
such acids overworks the kidneys
in their effort to filter it from the
blood and they become sort Of para

neys get sluggish and clog you must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels, removing all the body'S
urinous waste, else you have back
ache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sourS, tongue is coat
ed, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges.

U. S. STRIVES TO
SOLVE CASE OF
MYSTERY MAN
Prisoner of French Legion
May Be American
War Veteran.

BIZ United Press
ALGIERS, Nov. 20-Behind the
walls of the Orleansville military
prison, near here, is a mystery
soldier Of the French foreign legion
who does not know either name or
nationality, but who pretends to re-
call having been shot with the
Americans at Chateau Thierry in
1918.
An aged lady, Mrs. Eliza Jane
Pritchard, widow. Of 221 East Cherry
street, Gushing, Okla, is convinced
that the legionnaire is her son, and
the United States government to-
day put its machinery into opera
ton to find out.
On the records of the legion, the
mystery man is enrolled as Frank
OBrien. But names mean nothing
in the legion; half of the legion
naires give false names upon
enlisting.
Talks of Indian Life
The boy talks of Indian life. If
he is Marlin F. Pritchard, his
knowledge of Indian life is under
standable, for Pritchard was raised
in Oklahoma.
The boy sometimes contends that
he is a Canadian, English, French or
Belgian. He often gives the name
of De BruykerS, but generally ne
offeres a different name every time
he is questioned.
Through the state department in
Washington and Senator Elmer
Thomas of Oklahoma, the Ameri-
can consul in Algiers, oscar S.
Heiser. was furnished with charac-
teristics of the missing Merlin
Pritchard. He asked prison officials
to compare his indications with
marks on the boys body.
THE mysterious O'Brien has been
In the prison for many months, but
1 have been unable to find out why
he was put there" Heiser told the
United Press today.
Reported as Killed
"In the last letter I received, he
said he was Merlin Pritchard. He
asks that we obtain his liberation.
I communicated with the state de-
partment and Mrs Pritchard has
sent on indications which may solve
the mystery.
Her son is reported to have en-
listed in the Ninth division Of the
regular army in Denver during the
war. She indicated that if the boy
in prison is her son. he should have
scars on his right thumb and right
eyebrow. and marks of is right arms
double fracture"
It was remarked that the boy in
prison never gave the name OF
Pritchard until he had received a
letter directly from Mrs. Pritchard,
asking whether he was not her son.
The American Legion, interested
| in the case. found Army records to
indicate that the real Merlin
Pritchard was killed by machine gun
fire in 1913.
Army records also show there
we're several hundred Frank
OBriens in the American army dur
ing the Worid war.

coast of Labrador. last Spring, Capt.
Eaker piloted a German mechanic from
Long Island to the lonely spot off the
Atlantic Coast where the Bremen was
forced down. Unable to make land
ing on the ice and rocks of Greenly
Island the mechanic was dropped by
parachute to the Bremen, where the
German ship later cracked up on an
attempt to rise.
Although the crew of the Question
Mark has succeeded in breaking all
heavier than air records by remaining
alcft far beyond the 65-hour mark set
by the German aviators RiSticz and
Zimmerman, the Army primarily did
not have record breaking as its goal
when it sent the three-engined Fokker
aloft early on the morning OF New
Year day. The test was undertaken
in the first instance, according to Maj.
Gen. Fechet. chief of the Army Air
Corps, to settle questions as to the
possibility of extensive refueling both
by day and night; the endurance of
personnel in the cramped quarters OF a
heavier than air ship; and the length
of time aviation engines may run before
being completely washed out" or unfit
for further flying.
Gen. Fechet, whose scheme 1t was
originally to send the big plane aloft,
has declared repeatedly that record
breaking is not the main business of
the flight, although necessarily If the
plane remained aloft more than 81
hours it would break the worlds sus-
tanned flight record in heavier than air
ships.

The achievement of the Army Air

new record for sustained flight was ac-
claimed today by officials of the War
Department from Secretary Davis and
Maj. Gen. Fechet, chief Of the Air
Corps, down through the ranks.
The performance of the plane Ques-
ton Mark and it's pilots has fully met
the expectations of the officials direct
ly interested in the flight, and they
feel that before the machine lands it
will have established record which
will stand for some time.
Secretary Dav'l, and other officials
OF the department are sending tele-
grams of congratulations to its COM
mander and crew. These will be passed
down to them from one of the refilline
planes during the day, and 1t is exs

its crew resting easier in the knowl-
edge that enough fuel was aboard to
keep aloft at least until daylight facili-
tates supply operations.
Refuels at 70-Mile Speed.
Majority of the first Is contacts made
were at a speed of 70 miles an hour,
and only minor trouble was experienced
in the operations. It was estimated that
the ship now has flown nearly 5000
miles, which if in a straight line would
have carried it to another record for
nonstop distance flying.
The three 225-horsepower Wright
Whirlwind motors of the Fokker, any,
one of which can keep it going, have
thus far functioned perfectly, and the
only trouble experienced came Wednes-
day night when suddenly rising fog Oh
San Diego nearly caused crisis.
AS the shades of night fell with only
a little more than two hours gasoline
supply aboard, Maj. Spatz brought the
plane over this airport and dropped
note ordering refueling plane No. / up
at once with a new supply. His first
note could not be found on the big,
dark field, and another was sent down.
That note was found and shortly after
ward Lieut., Odas Moon took OF and
delivered ITO gallons Of gasoline.
At midnight the ship returned to the
field, asking more gasoline. Lieut.. Moon
failed to- establish contact in his first
ascent and upon more dropped orders
went up second time to deliver LOG
gallons of fuel.
Bumpy air and dead storage battery
which plunged the ship. into darkness
caused a hectic night aboard, MAJ.
Spatz reported in note dropped yes
terday which said all his crew were
well. The battery was replaced during
the day and the ship headed into the
San Fernando Valley to escape rough
sir. 1t was forced to change its course
frequently to avoid adverse aerial con-
ditions.
Six Tons of Gasoline Taken.
Army reports showed that the plane
had consumed close to six tons OF gaso-
line and half ton of oil; refueling air
contacts had required a total OF ITO
minutes.
Fl. j. Adamson, representing the War
Department said the three Wright
Whirlwind motors sounded great" SIS
the ship roared over Imperial Airport.
The crew of refueling plane No. l,
which made the sixteenth contact, re-
ported that Maj. Carl Spatz, was "Smil-
ing and looked very happy"
Capt. Ira C. Eaker, chief pilot, and
Lieut. Harry Halverson, relief pilot of
the Question Mark, both stood in the
cockpit and waved, "grinning from ear

Grass Grown in India
to Make Match Sticks

The fact that lumber for the
making of match sticks is becom-
ing scarce in this country lends
special interest to a report from
British India to the effect that a
grass is being successfully en-
ployed there for such purposes.
At ShOlapur there is a factory
that is making match sticks from D
growth called Surya grass, abun.
dant in some parts of India. The
grass is cut into two-inch lengths.
winnowed and screened to obtain
uniform size, and then boiled in a
revolving drum. Twenty-four pounds
OF Burma paraffin is sufficient for
1000 boxes of matches.
Shaken through a horizontal sift.
er, the sticks are deposited in hori-
zontal layers, which are secured in
q frame for the dipping of the
ends, and dipped in a solution of
chlorate of potash, sulphate of ar
senic, potash of bichloride, pow
dered gypsum and gum arabic. Six
pounds of this mixture provide for
the 1000 boxes of matches. By an
ingenious cOntrivance some of the
closely packed stems are forced for
ward in the dipping so as to avoid
the sticking together of the COM
pact mass. After drying the
matches are packed in cardboard
boxes. Materials are so cheap that
matches sell for 26 cents a gross.

MORE MONEY
FROM DAIRYING?
Alfalfa Hay and Corn Silage
Will Get 1t

Alfalfa hay and corn silage form
the basis of most successful dairy
production. The alfalfa will not
only give much greater returns per
acre than clover or timothy, but it
has the further advantage over
the one-year crop in that it will
continue to yield for several years
once a stand is secured.
Feeding is one of the big factors
in determining profits from the
dairy herd. The average returns
per acre from alfalfa and other
crops are as follows: corn Gears
and stover) 1874 pounds; alfalfa
hay, 1872 pounds; clover hay, 1924
pounds; timothy hay, 2340 pounds.
