The Human Automobile The human body, like an automobile, changes fuel (food) Into power. When the fuel is too rich, or the mixers and valves are out of ordtt, waste products clog the machinery and reduce the poorer. The kidneys, like exhaust valves, should carry off the waste (uric acid), but weak kidneys can’t. Uric add in excess causes headache, weak eyes, rheumatlo pains, gravel, dropsy and fatal Bright’s disease. Doan’s Kidney Pills help the kidneys light off uric acid. It Is the best-recom-mended special kidney remedy. An Illinois Case SMr*. T. Laughlln, 8. Madison St.. Plttsfleld. 111., says: "I was so .bad with kidney trouble I had to so to a hospital.

Save the Babies. IHFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children bom in civuined countries, twenty-two per oent., or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirty-seven per oent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen I We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a majority of these precious lives. Neither ao we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity, they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, bat you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher.

SHALL WARS MEAN BIG POEMS

Greatest Battle Hymns Have Not Bean Inspired by Titanic fttrugflles Like the Present One. The greatest poems have been written about little wars. The Iliad was written around a siege carried on by a handful of barbarian chieftains against a city of the second class. The battle of Chevy Chase was a border skirmish followings upon a cattle-steal-ing expedition. And Kipling’s imperial mnse is at her best when she sings of petty wars with colored tribesmen. Britain’s far-flung battle line was far flung against Dervish era and Afridis; it was seldom brotight into collision with field intrenchments and siege artillery. Little war, or else big wars in anticipation of retrospect, these are the rich soil for the poet. A great war in the actual, the fate of an empire truly at stake, may make poets out of the common crowd, but subdues the poet to the level of the common crowd. There is a solemn tone about- Kipling's latest verse which has its effect. Only it is not exhortation we wanted, but exultation; not an appeal, but a clarion call. When an entire nation is aflame the poet is apt to find his mission rather perfunctory. "■>

Finally Captured Eagle.

After defying a score of traps and as many guns of farmers, who have sought vainly to Impose summary sentence for the loss of hundreds of chickens over a period of six months. Old Baldy, a monster eagle, was caught by a man with a lasso. He lay waiting in the shadow of his chicken house for the chicken thief for more than eight hours. The bird swooped down shortly after daybreak The lasso was thrown around the eagle’s neck. The man wanted to capture the bird alive, but it fought so desperately that he was forced to shoot it. The eagle measures eight feet seven inches from tip to tip, and weighs 73 pounds. ‘

PIMPLES RUINED COMPLEXION 724 E. N. Ave., Olney, Ill.—“ When my trouble first began I noticed little pimples coming on my face. They itched and burned so badly that I had to scratch them and that only made them worse. About a week later my face was so badly covered with pimples and blackheads that I was ashamed. My complexion was ruined. The pimples would sometimes bleed and fester. ' “I bought a box of complexion cream and used it but without effect One, day I heard of Cutlcura Soap and Ointment and I decided to give them a trial. So I got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment washed my face with the Soap and applied the Ointment and in two weeks I was completely well." (Signed) Chas. E. McGinn, May 5, 1914.

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IXP.

-FncemyeL"Przemysl” is one of the tew really simple proper names that have secured notoriety In the Russian invasion of Galicia. It Is pronounced “Pahem-ia-i," with the accent on the “pxhem.” Just how easy this is one may appreciate by considering Przemyslany, in the first syllable of which the “r” is sounded, thus: “przbe,” with the AustroHungarian variation of “miscellany* following. In pronouncing “PrzemysT you should carefully hold a “p” between your teeth while pronouncing “ahem” (which is a soft, mushroom, dumdum variety of “shem”) and Just as you are about to eject it deftly insert the “p” in the outer hook of the “s;” thus: “Pxhem.” Nothing can be simpler.

Escapes In Heat-of Battle.

Reports indicate it sometimes takes a lot to kill a modem soldier, the New York World states. Sergeant Fougere of France received eight bullet wounds, a broken arm and other injuries, and although shot in the calf, thigh and ankle, escaped being captured by Germans and limped ten miles to his regiment Another French Boldler received six bullet and three bayonet wounds and is recovering. The French yar office estimates only two men are killed out of every one hundred hit The penetration is so clean one soldier did not know he had been hit for three hours, and another bullet went through two soldiers and lodged in a cavalryman’s saddle.

Found He Was Mistaken.

A man from the country, in charity one will say from the country, although he may have been a Bostonese, entered a New York restaurant the other evening, and while waiting to die served, gave his attention to an electric fan revolving just above his head. It was a high pressure fan, noiseless, and almost, if not quite, Invisible because of Its rapid motion. The stranger gazed at it for some considerable time and was heard to mutter: “I don’t believe there is anything there at all.” With that he put up his hand to con* firm his belief. Immediately there was a yell that almost threw the place Into a panic. The man sprang Into the air, rushed out of the door and, as he disappeared, was heard to say: “I monkeyed with the buzz-saw, all right.” You think that other people are “funny.” But that Is just what they are thinking about you.

LIGHT BOOZE.

Do You Drink Its ▲ minister’s wife had quite a tussle with coffee and her experience is -interesting. She says:“During the two years of my training as a nurse, while on night duty, I became addicted to coffee drinking. Between midnight and four hi the morning, when the patients were asleep, there was little*' to do except make the rounds, and it was quite natural that I should want a hot cup of coffee about that time. I could keep awake better. “After three of four years of coffee drinking, I became a nervous wreck and thought that 1 simply could not livejwithout my coffee. All this time T was subject to frequent bilious attacks, sometimes so severe as to keep me in bed for several days. “After being married, Husband begged me to leave off coffee for he feared that it had already hurt me almost beyond repair, so 1 resolved to make an effort to release myself from tiie hurtful habit “I began taking Postum, and for a few days felt the languid, tired feeling from the lack of the coffee drug, but I liked the taste of Postum, and that answered for the breakfast beverage all right “Finally I began to feel clearerheaded and bad steadier nerves. After. a year’s use of Postum I now feel like a new woman—have not had any bilious attacks since I left off coffee.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read “The Road to Welhrllle,’ in pkgs. Postum comes in two .forms: Regular Postum —must be well boiled: 15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum—is a soluble powder. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a cup of hot water, and. with cream and sugar, makes a delicious beverage instantly. 30c and 50c tins. The cost per cup of both kinds Is about the same. “There’s a Reason” for Postum. •—•old by Grocers.

HINTS FOR HOUSEWIVES

PRACTICAL BUGGE3TIONB PERTAINING TO THE HOME. Simple Method of Providing for Plants When Family Has to Leave Home —How to Prevent Accumulation of Flies. If you Intend leaving home for a few days and wish to keep your palms and other plants well Watered during your absence, take a tub and get as many bricks as you have pots to place in the tub. Cover the bricks with water, and the plants placed on them will draw all the moisture they require, and keep in good condition. > Mildew stains are sometimes a source of great trouble, and are difficult -to remove unless you know Just the right way. Rub a little soap over the mildew spots, and on top of this a little chalk and lemon jnlce. If the garment is then put out in the sun for a couple of hours and afterwards washed in the usual way the spots will disappear. To wash a sweater knead the sweater in warm water in which a little soap has been dissolved. Repeat three times using fresh suds each time. Rinse in tepiff water to which a little ammonia has been added. Press out as much moisture as possible and hang out to dry in the wind. To prevent the accumulation of flies, wash the windows and frames, picture glass and gas brackets with fluid ammonia and water. This will destroy the eggs. It will also produce a splendid clearness and lasting polish to the glass and mirror. s To keep butter, pqt your butter. In a dish and place it in another one with water and a little .salt. Then place another cover over !L and it will keep quite fresh and firm in hot weather. Never throw small pieces of new linoleum away. Keep them in your coal box; it saves the box wearing at the bottom. Use some to stand saucepans on and to line housemaid’s box, also the kitchen boot-blacking and metal-cleaning boxes. Cut in small pieces, it will make a bright fire with a few sticks added. If you want to stiffen a straw hat that has become limp, brush it over with a mixture made by dissolving a few drops of gum in a little vinegar. It is also a good plan to wire the brim with some very fine wire, and a good black bat dye will work wonders with a black straw, but be sure that you choose a dye that will not “run” should you be caught in a shower. Brass, silver or Sheffield plate that has been lacquered should never be cleaned with metal polish, bath brick or anything else of the kind, but merely rubbed with a soft cloth and finished with silk dusters. If the pieces are very dirty, a little sweet oil may be used. It saves a lot of trouble if Bilver and brass candlesticks, etc., are lacquered. The lacquer can be bought and applied with a soft brush. The article should be perfectly clean, dry and bright.

Pork Steak.

Try this for a change: Roll the steaks in egg and cracker crumbs and fry a golden brown In hot fat. While they are cooking make this tomato sauce: Fry a.small onion, chopped fine, in one tablespoonful of butter; when brown, add one-half can of tomatoes and stew a few minutes, then put through a sieve. Heat and add one tablespoonful sugar, season with salt and pepper and add a pinch of soda. Thicken with' one teaspoonful cornstarch. Arrange your meat on a platter and pour the sauce around the meat.

White Pickle.

Chop 12 large, ripe tomatoes. Put 12 large cucumbers and 12 large onions through the meat grinder. Salt the cucumbers and onions and let them stand one hour. Strain off the juice, and the meaty part of the tomatoes, and cover with vinegar. Season with two tablespoonfuls of sugar, two teaspoonfnls of celery seed, one teaspoonful of red pepper. Mix all the Ingredients in the preserving kettle, bring to a boll and can and seal while hot.

Suggestions for the Cook.

There Is a popular prejudice against fried food, but food perfectly fried is not harmful to a healthy person. Frying can be perfectly done only when the fat Is smoking hot Croquettes or other food coated with eggs and crumbs and immersed in smoking fat will not be greasy, and may be eaten with impunity. *

Currant Fluff.

Beat white (allow one egg to a person) of egg to stiff froth, add knife tip of salt hnd scant dessertspoonful of home-made currant jelly. Beat till smooth and rosy. Pile on slice of cake or sugar cookie. This amount is really enough for two persons If egg is large.

Peach Croustades.

Cut stale sponge or delicate cake Into blocks, remove a portion from the center of each to make a well, fill with half a preserved peach, pour over ‘a spoonful of the sirup, cooked until well reduced and crown with a spoonful of whipped cream.

Saving Milk.

When making tomato bisque use the water in which rice has been boiled Instead of milk. It will not curdle and ia much cheaper to use than milk, besides being fully as good.

How Europeans Get Our Gold.

Do 70a know just how Europe recently got that $126,000,000 In American gold. Well, here is the way It wag done: Europeans hold great amounts In American securities, which is to say they have bought bonds issued in this country. When the war crisis came they saw the need of actual money in place of these bonds. They cabled to their American brokers to sell at the market price. They -took whatever they could get, but there was always something offered, so the sales were heavy. The purchasers of these bonds gave their checks. These the brokers cashed at their banks and got currency. This currency of the United States is made good by the deposit of gold in the treasuries. For every gold certificate In existence there is the actual metal in the treasury. So the brokers, getting the currency from the banks, went to the sub-treasury in New York and asked for the actual gold: They received it and sent the gold to their customers abroad.

Fashion Note.

“One blessing, at least, will come to us from this dreadful war. We shan’t be Inundated with shocking French fashions.” The speaker was a leading dubwoman. She resumed: “At a dnb dinner the other evening a man fashion writer —man writers are the best—said to me: “‘A truce to these foreign modes! They are caricatures.’ “‘Caricatures?’said L ’Caricatures? Yes, perhaps. But wouldn’t It be more accurate to call them take-offs?’ ”
