There's little peace when your kid neys are weak and while at hrst there may be nothing more serious than dull backache, sharp, stabbing pains, head aches, dizzy spells and kidney irregu larities, you must act quickly to avoid the more serious trouble, dropsy, gravel, heart disease, Bright's disease.

Sieol Is going up, and concrete, ns a result Is coming Into wider use. Rail way bridges, for example, which used always to be of steel, are now often of concrete. A beautiful concrete rail way bridge Is being built across the .Tames river at Richmond, Va and It Is much prettier than a steel bridge. For like reasons, concrete Is replac ing wood In mining structural works, where It has the great advantage of being waterproof. Opinions. "Every man is entitled to his opin ion."

My Sister AI30 Cured By PE-RU-NA to make money that'a tor Deci or dairy purposes r-'t Government Agents BOYS MAKE BEST AIR PILOTS More Likely to Possess Dashing and Intrepid Qualities That Make Ideal Aviators. War aviation, with Its exceptional dangers and Its demands for supreme courage, Is peculiarly u service for volunteers. But It has been demon strated, says St. Nicholas Magazine, that the younger the war pilot the more likely Is he to possess those dashing and Intrepid qualities that make the Ideal air lighter. Conse quently, the government Is opening wide the door of the aviation service for volunteers under twenty-one, the conscription nge. "She army Is already giving officers' commissions to young men nineteen yenrs of nge, while the navy has reduced Its limit to eighteen years. Only commissioned officers are permitted to operate American military airplanes, so all our liters will get commissions. Boys considerably younger than eighteen can be thinking now of be coming wnr pilots, with reasonable expectations of seeing actunl service. As long as the war goes on, the air craft program will keep growing, since only the declaration of peace will jus tify a lessening of our effort. First, let us see the qualifications of those suited to war aviation. The athletic type of boy Is preferred. To have been a member of a team Is usually a good Indication of pluck and persistence. A sound physique, nnd good vision and hearing, are absolute ly necessary. The Ideal airman has a cool head; he Is able to act quickly In emergencies. It is Important, too, that the war pilot be an accurate observer and equally Important that he possess the ability to form correct judgments. Hello Profanity. The rule Is strict against using pro fnne lnnguage when talking over the telephone. A telephone experiment has proved a fullure In Lynu, Mnss. The manager noticed thnt "wrong number" calls were frequent, and he or dered the "hello" girls to call each digit separately and to Insert the word "dash" after each one. The method wns slow, but the climax was reached when a Lynn mnn was In a hurry to get a Boston newspaper office. He called for "Beach H0O0" and heard a sweet voice ut "central" say: "Beach three, dash, oh, dash, oh, dash, oh, dash." That netted the Lynn man nnd he called out: "Well, what are you cussing about?" The order was abolished, and no more dashes are being said by the telephone girls at Lynn. Buffalo Com mercial. Comparisons. "Do you remember In your dnys of adventure the story you told me about the trouble you had In one voyage to dodge n maneatlng shark?" "Yes, but Unit's nothing to the trouble I have to dodge my wife when she wnnts money for shopping." Taking Long Chance.
