LET KIDNEYS
FLUSH OUT
3 LBS. A DAY


Clean Out Is Miles OF Kidney tubes
Nature put over Is miles Of tiny
tubes and filters in your kidneys to
strain the waste matter out of the
blood. Kidneys should pass 5 pintS
a day and so get rid of more than
pounds Of waste matter.
When the passing of water is
scanty, with smarting and burning,
the Is miles of kidney tubes may
need flushing out. This danger signal
may be the beginning of nagging
backache, leg pains, loss of pep and
energy, getting up nights, swelling,
puffiness under the eyes and dizzi-
ness.
If kidneys don't empty 8 pints a
day and so get rid of more than 8
pounds Of waste matter, your body
may take up some of these poisons
causing serious trouble. Don't wait!
Ask your druggist for Doan's Pills,
which have been used successfully by
millions OF people for over 40 years.
They give happy relief and help the
kidneys to flush out 3 pounds day.
Insist on Doan's Pills. Advertisement.

1T was beautiful, clear summer
Il day, and I had just settled
down to my typewriter at Roosevelt
Field and was casting about for
something that would be interesting
to you. Great fun, aviation on
day like that. Private f1ierS were
enjoying the fine weather and STU
dent pilots we're going after their
lessons with all the vim and zest
of youth. Now, there was an idea
for a column-but wait! What was
that? Something about that train
ing ship just taking off, mean.
The ship had just numbered into
the air, and there was something
black dragging along the ground be-
hind it. Well, if this was stunt,
1 thought, it might be worth watch
ing, but I had a bunch that here
was an item that wasn't on the
schedule. Was he towing something?
And then, even as I Speculated, the
black object turned from the flight
path, and careened at a wild tam
gent across the fed.
A quick glance at the ship in the
air told the story. A black dot on
the right side of the landing gear
was clear enough, but there wasn't
any on the left side. The one that
should have been on the left side
was merrily bouncing along the
field. The black dot, Of course, was
a wheel.
Now the stories Of pilots who've
landed with one wheel missing are
legion. Transport plots who brought

WTASHINGTON, Sept. %. -
w They called Frank Knox a
"doggone dynamo" when he was
a reporter on the Grand Rapids
Herald at the turn Of the century.
The Republican Party is look
ing for a dynamo to run against
Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1886 and
accordingly you'll find the name
Of the Chicago publisher, still a
bundle of energy at 81, high up
on any slate.
Col. Knox is one of the most
active Of the Republican evange-
lists now stirring up the electo-
rate. Not content to illuminate
in editorials, he sallies forth con-
stantly TO arraign the New Deal
from the stump.
Since his youth he has been a
strenuous person. He served in
the Spanish-American war as a
private and in the World War as
a major Of artillery overseas. He
FOLLOWED T. R. up San Juan Hill
with the Rough Riders and into
the political Armageddon Of 1912
as a Bull Mooser.
At an early age, as editor of a
Sault Ste. Marie weekly in the
rough, untutored 800" region,
ne opened war on the gambling
dives and saloons along the
waterfront. Those we're difficult
days and to him they were the
glorious days.
NEWSPAPERING and politics

ton, reared in Michigan, seasoned
in New Hampshire and now he is
political figure in Illinois. He
owns two newspapers in Man
chester, N. H, in addition to his
holdings in the Chicago Daily
News.
Frank Knox espoused whole
heartedly the Teddy Roosevelt
policies, enthusing over T. RS
campaign against monopolies,
"malefactors of great wealth." and
political crookednesS. That other
Roosevelt still is his ideal. Re-
Gently, also, in a speech at Los

doch's, had given 1t to her.
She couldn't stand there and cape at
that cute dress all day, she reflected.
She reviewed the chain of events OF
the last few weeks as she trudged along
The discouraging search for a job and
the stiff lady who told her to come
back Monday if she wanted to address
envelopes. And of today being rent
day at Murdoch's. And that adorable
little get-up in the window.
Aimlessly she approached Turner
boulevard. At DempSter street a sign
ct the mouth of the suburban subway
entrance said, ITO the Races Every
one, Sue observed. seemed to be going.
The sign stirred Sue. Suddenly,
impulsively, that ticket in her hand
meant something. She could, If she
wanted, go to the races!
Presently she found herself in the
subway before the ticke5 window. A
sign directly in front OF her re-
vealed that the round trip fare was
only so cents. She felt IN her shoddy
bag. for the change. She picked up
the ticket given to her and made her
way with the crowds to the train
shed, entered a car ana took a seat
next to a window.
The train filled and started. When
Sue looked around again there was
very good looking man in the seat
next to her. He was quite absorbed
in a racing sheet.
He noticed her and said: Lovely
day for racing, isn't it,"
By the time the train had reached
the track the polite and handsome
young man next to Sue had lnltl-
ated her into many of the common
points of racing. He would like to
meet her, he said, after the third
race at the 500 mutuel window, as
there wouldn't be such a crowd there.
She thanked him and gave him one
of her sweetest smiles as they parted.
Sue strolled around after the first
race and merely to be doing some
thing, picked up several discarded
mutuel tickets. She tossed them
away, all but one, and was reading
what it said on the face of the ticket
when some one jostled her and the
tiny pasteboard few from her hands.
1t was a man who had collided with
her and he stopped, retrieved the
ticket and, CHANGING to see it as he
handed it back to Sue, remarked:
1--WE got the same horse, too, lady
good luck" and was lost in the mill
ing crowds before the bewildered Sue
could ask any questions.
The fourth race was next and Sue
walked over to the window where the
young man she had met on the train
said he could be found. He was
waiting for her. Sue lost no time in
telling him about the ticket she had
picked up and what the man who
had bumped into her had said.

station herself to get good view OF
the next race BEST of luck" he
said, and then whispered something
to Sue before he left.
Sue looked at the big board next
to the judges stand and saw that
the odds on Ebony Lady were to l
and that the favorite in the race was
a filly called Patsy Ann
The first she could see of the race
were the green silks of Patsy Ann,
who had broken on vop and was lead
ing. She looked for the cerise and
gold colors of Ebony Lady
Her hopes, so buoyant a moment
before, were dashed. The race had
carried into the back stretch now end
the field of horses, closely punched
together. was moving DIP. but Patsy
Ann was still out in front by what
seemed TO Sue to be an awfully snug
margin. Then Sue caught glimpse
of the cerise and gold. Ebony Lady,
she counted, was fifth. The horses
were nearing the three-quarter mile
pole.
Come on. come on" she beseeched,
her throat dry and a hysterical feel
ing gripping her. Now the race was
being run. Patsy Ann was still lead
ing, but only three necks separated
the first three horses, with Ebony
Lady lying third.
Only a few feet now to the finish.
Sue closed her eyes TO: an instant.
She tried to be calm. 1t was no use.
She looked up just in time to see the
cerise and gold of Ebony Lady fash
by the finish line first by a matter
of inches.
Giddily she listened to the roar of
the crowd as she clutched the little
ticket in her hand. She leaned against
the rail, lost and limp with excite
ment. until the odds board finally
revealed to her what the ticket was
worth. The numbers were posted and
she riveted her gaze on them. Twenty
dollars for two! Jubllantly she scut-
tied off to the pay-otf window, re-
deemed the ticket, stuffed the money
in her shabby. little purse
Her head swan as she sat in the
train as it sped back to the city. She
thought Of what an afternoon it had
been for her, how magical it had
turned out. And she thought again
of the little blue dress in the shop
window, the room rent, the lady who
said come back Monday to address
envelopes, the lucky ticket she found.
But she thought most OF the young
man who had whispered that he would
consider il a privilege indeed if he
could take her to the movies some
evening soon.

WACHAPREAGUE NOTED
HEN DIES AT 16 YEARS

Miss Hennie "R" is dead at the ripe
old age of 16 years.
Hennie was a Rhode Island Red
hen, of the finest strain and was own
ed by Mrs. Ida Bonniwell, of Wacha-
preague. She made her first appear
ance in this world in the year Of
1919, when in the act of being hatch
ed she cracked the shell in which her
body was enclosed.
Though age had shown its wear up
on her, in her last years Hennie stood
perfectly straight and walked with a
domineering air. She weighed one
and one-half pounds at her death.
