What Neighbors Say thoy saved my lifo, and if I can bo In strumental in help ing others I will feci I well repaid. My kidneys and bladder? were in very bad condition for a lone time and got woroo every day. I used , ono bottlo of a well- known kidney medi cine without any ro lief, then I took two bottles of nnothes remedy nnd used them but got worso every day. I was in tcrriblo shape, was disturbed eight to twclvo times in a night and Buffered excruciating pain and there would bo a thick brownish sediment. I was despondent. At hut I saw 'Anuria' advertised in a Kansas City paper and I thought it just suited my caso so I sent to Dr. Pierce's Invalids Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., for a trial pnekago, which was ten cents. I took two tablets at night and felt much better in the morning ana by tho second morning I didn't feel any pain at all when voiding tho kidsoy secretion. In a week thero was no sediment in tho water, and it has been normal ever sinco. That was eighteen months ago. therefore it would bo hard to mako the claim for JAnurio' too strong.'! O. L. BUNDY.

Made up of 400 miles of majestic pcakH, in three ridges, the Caucasus stretches from northwest to, southeast like a petrllled wave, whose north enptcrn face mounts to the snow crest, but whose southwestern front, hieing townrd Turkey, seems dashed Into countless precipices by the titanic forces of nature, says a bulletin from tho National Geographic society. Tho Caucasus is the most Interesting rabbit warren of humanity on the globe. Vor uncounted ages various peoples sifted through tho secluded valleyH, leaving a fraction of their number In somo remote spot, so that at one time El Azlzl said that thero were ?!00 tribes and dialects In the re gion, 050 inlles long and 100 miles broad, which ho called the "Mountain of Languages."

You have a name when you come Into tho big bam-like building here where 4,000 clerks are tabulating you and about 110,000,000 like you.

On tho Asiatic side there are the new republics of Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia, pnrtly carved from Russian, partly from Turkish lauds. The people who have left the deep est Impress on the Caucasus, although most of them emigrated to Tunkey In 180-1, are the Tcherkees or Circassians. The Tcherkees gave to the Caucasus and the fancy dress ball the Tcher keska, the familiar skirted costume of the warlike Cossack and the lithe Georgian grandee. It Is the original opera boufTe uniform, with a narrow wnlst and flaring skirts above soft hoots without heels. This costume is also distinguished by 18 cartridge cases ranged across tho chest.

HOW TO GET BID OF PLAGUE Bureau of Mines Says Best Way Is to Turn Bituminous Coal Into Coke and Gas, Using Coke for Heat ing and Gas for Cooking. Washington. Tho smoke evil, which costs each city dweller of this coun try from $12 to $20 ench year In prop erty damage alone, cannot be abated If tho people continue to use In the old way the same smoky coal, accord ing to the bureau of mines, department of the Interior. Now tho bureau main tains that tho best way to get rid of tho smoke plague In tho resldental por tions of the cities Is to first turn the bituminous coal Into coke nnd gas, which are smokeless, the coke being vised for house heating and gas for cooking. The factories may continue ns usual to use the soft coals, for It has been demonstrated that In the boiler and heating plants the coal can be burned practically smokelessly. Use Smokeless Fuel. "The only way of eliminating smoke In lnrge cities Is by using smokeless fuel." says Dr. Van H. Manning, direc tor of the bureau of mines "a fuel that will burn without producing smoke In any equipment now In use. In the past the only smokeless fuel available In quantify for bouse heating was an thracite. However, anthracite Is mined white man. born In America, living In Washington, head of a family, English-speaking and able to read and write. Neither king's horses nor king's men could drag your nanio out of the cen sus bureau. Draft ollkiuls In 1017 tried It and failed. The census bureau gave General Crowdor lots of Information about the number of men between certain ages living In certain areas. But when the slacker drive was on and General Crowdor. with the whole war depart ment back of him, tried to get the names to check up against enlistments and draftees the census bureau called his attention to tho law. It ?, not only against tho law to give out such Information, but enumeration sheets carrying names are destroyed after the Information has been trans ferred to cards. A bald headed man Is soon partod. martial aspect to the. dress until the automatic revolver came Into fnshlon. But comparative wealth and pence overtook the Georgians and the other town dwellers who wore the striking dress, and gradually these cartridges were changed for decorative Imita tions. Some of them were made of ebony at one end and Ivory at tho other. Modernity has gone even further. One of these cartridge cases Is now sometimes used for a fountain pen, and the ultrn-fastldlous dundy sometimes has hollow decorations In whose solid gold shell Is concealed, rich perfume for the mustache. The North Caucasus Is not distin guished solely by legendary lore and fancy dress manhood. The broad fields, which sweep gently up toward the slopes, produce some of Russia's most abundant grain crops, nnd form nn Im portant Hold for the sale and use of modern agricultural machinery. Central Americas as One. El l'oso, Tex. The republics of Cen tral Amerlcn have formed plans to unite themselves under one govern ment, beginning September 15, 1021. the centennlnl of their Independence, according to Excelsior of Mexico City. In only ono district In the United States and, therefore. Its use Is limited to the area lying within reasonnblf freight distance of the anthracite mines. Much the lnrger part of the country has to depend on soft coal. "Coke should be used for heating houses because It Is a clean nnd con venient fuel. It eliminates smoke, re duces the necessity of cleaning the fumnco and Hues, requires less atten tion thnn coal, nnd gives n more uni form temperature In tho house. By burning coke for domestic bent, more soft coal will be used In by-product plants, which sav.o many valuable by products that are wasted when tho coal Is used directly. The by-product of popular Interest obtained In the coking process nre gas, light oils, am monia and inrs. By-products of Coking. "With soft coal costing $7 a ton turned Into Its by-products, you will get .'i.OOO cubic feet of gas valued al $5; three gallons of light oil valued at 7o cents; 25 pounds of ammonia sul phate valued at 51.25; nine gallons of tar worth 25 cents; and more thnn half a ton of coke valued at $0. "When our mineral supply of oil Is erliiuisted. soft coal will be a mate rial source of motor fuel. The light oil recovered from coking soft conl now supplies part of the ever-Increasing de mand for motor fuel. Germany, during part of the war, was cut off from every supply of mineral oil, and she depend ed entirely for her motor fuel on her coal. As a result of that condition, Germany sent most of her cool through by-product coking plnnts. What haw been done In Germany may In the fu ture have to bo done In the United States."
