Weekly Health Talks A Word About the Kidneys BY DOCTOR WATSON. People are easily frightened when they think something is the matter with their lungs or heart, and well they may be; but few people understand the dangers of diseased kidneys. These organs have a duty of vital importance to perform, and if they are diseased, there is no telling how or where symptoms niay appear. The kidney’s are filters, and when they 1 ' kfi healthy they remove the poisons from the blood and purify it. M hen the kidneys are diseased, the poisons are spread everywhere;' and one of these poisons is u'.c acid. The uric acid is carried all through the system and deposited in various places, in the form <f urate salts—in the feet, ankles, wrists and back —often forming bags under the eyes. Sometimes the resulting trouble is called rheumatism, lumliago, sciatica and backache. Finally, come stone in the bladder, diabetes and Bright’s disease. . Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., in recent years, discovered that a certain combination of remedies would dissolve uric acid _ (urate salts) in the system. He found this combination to be harmless, .so that he made it up in tablets, of double strength, ' and called them Ahuric Tablets. They dissolve uric acid in the human system as hot coffee dissolves sugar. If you have uric acid troubles, don’t delay in taking Anuric Tablets; which can be secured in ‘ the drug stores. You can write Dr. Pierce, too, and he will tell you what to eat and how to live so that, more uric acid will not form in'your system. Dr. Pierce will not charge, for this advice.

What Is to Be the Attitude Toward Labor of Leaders of Industry?

and suffering to all, the development of bitterness and hatred, and in. the end the bringing about through legislation, if not by force, of conditions far more drastic and radical than could now be amicably arrived at through mutual concession in friendly conference? . (Ts-will it~be—an— attitude, in which I myself profoundly believe, which takes cognizance of the inherent right and justice of the principles underlying the new order, which recognizes that mighty changes are inevitable,, many of them desirable* which, not waiting until forced to adopt new- methods, takes the lead in calling together the parties in interest for a round-table conference to be held in a spirit of justice, fair play and brotherhood with a view to working out some plan of co-operation which will insure to all those concerned adequate representation, an opportunity to earn a fair wage under (proper working and living conditions, with such restrictions as to hours as shall leave timq not alone for food and sleep but also for recreation and the development of the higher things of life?

Why the British Seaman has Boycotted the German for Seven Long Years

When the- war broke out and the authorities took 8,000 German sailors off British ships in British ports we insisted that they should not be treated as prisoners or as enemies. These men had been our shipmates. They were members of our union, many of them of five, ten, fifteen years’ standing. Well, the authorities turned them over to us with ill grace. We went surety for them and made them the guests of our union, lie housed them, clothed them, fed them better than ever before in their lives. T was on Lord Kitchener’s recruiting committee, and wherever I went to speak I was challenged as a pro-German. Then came the sinking of the Lusitania. These Germans broke forth in cheers. Then they began to sing “Die WacM am Rhein,” “Deutschland ueber Alles,” and—well, they kept the 'celebration up all night. There could not have been a wilder celebration in Berlin. Well, sir, we were awake at last. The next morning we went to the authorities and said, “Take these creatures off our hands.” So we were rid of their care and company. All this time we were of the opinion that by treating these German sailors as men and brothers we would assure our own poor fellows decent treatment in German prisons. We did not. We soon learned that our men were being treated worse than any white man would treat a dog. The full story of their treatment can never be told in a newspaper. But even then we were not bitter. We began to plumb it when reports of U-boat outrages began to come in. All the world knows how the crew of the Belgian Prince were lined up on the deck of a U-boat and left to drown when she submerged. It does not know- all the horrible stories of men shelled in open boats, of men and women and children, too, for that matter, cast adrift without food or oars or water. We ourselves do not know of all. We know of the orders “sink and leave no trace,” and we know full well how thoroughly those-w About this time we decided on the boycott. ’Two years was the term we fixed, and we«gave solemn warning that for every additional outrage we won Idaddain on th. Seven years is the total now —the price we demand for the 17,000 of our members we know the Germans murdered. The sea is a hard life, yet those who follow it love it. It is a clean life and a free life. It is a life for men and not for dogs, and so far as lies in the British seamen’s power, it will not-be polluted by Germans. The bovcott is not of our choosing. Would to God we never had to consider, much less apply it. But it was forced on us when, against our wills, we were forced to realize that, come what may, go what may, a Hun is onlv a Hun.

It Was When the Prodigal Was “Broke” That He “Came to Himself” ,

It is to be Irdpcd the work at tire peace conference will be short, share and to the'point, free ambiguity. That it will settle territorial boundaries and the question of the colonies and fix indemnities and adjourn, .leaving an ample military force in Germany to see to it that the terms of the ]>v;:ce are complied with. This conference is not a place for speechmaking or Utopian propaganda. The delegates meet there for business purposes onlv. They are not there to settle the business of the world for all time to come. They must leave something to future generations and incidentally to the Almighty. The best preventive ,of future wars at thisjjtime is the sight of a nanon bidng inado to foot Iter war bills. To pay just and righteous indemnities for all her unrighteous'despoliation of other nations. Let the nations see that war is nor only hell but bad business that leads, to bankruptcy. Remember we are dealing with a nation without a conscience" and* whose entire social edifice is reared on a substructure of economic interests. Money is the only key that fits the lock of the German problem. She is long on cash and short oil conscience. It was when the prodigal was ‘‘broke” that he “came'to himself” and returned in penitence. People easily forget treaties, but taxes jog the memory.. Years from now, when the passion of the hour has passed tod Germany has had time to eat and inwardly digest softie of the crop of her own sowing, and incidentally, let us hope, to repent and “to bring forth fruit meet for repentanCe”—then it will be time for the nations to meet at The Hague and talk about a league of nations, but not until then.

Will it be that of the “standpatters” who take no account of the extraordinary changes which have taken place in the minds oUmen, who say," “What has been and is must continu’e to be.

FOULARD FOR VEST

Material to Be Favorite, Taking Place of Fur. -------—---y... j Dresses and Suits for Early Spring Wear Show Trimmings and Lin- :' ings of the Fabric. Like the well-loved perennials of the garden, tulips, hyacinths and jonquils, which come back each year to find a joyous welcome, writes an authority, our old friend foulard will again be a favorite when fur coats are laid aside. Many of the dresses and suits designed for early spring wear show trimmings and linings of foulard. A simple sport coat of blue gabardine is given quite a dashing touch by its vest of dotted foulard — white dots on a blue ground. This vest is, In reality, the front of one of the new long-skirted peplum blouses, which are designed for wear with" cutaway coats of various lines. When the coat is removed a very attractive foulard blouse is displayed. The edges of the neck, sleeves and the peplum are bound with white foulard.

The Foulard Vest.

A narrow belt of patent leather holds the fullness at the waistline. The .coat belt is made of its own material, held by a silver buckle. A stolelike collar completes, the neckline of the coat and extends in tabs below the belt. The hat, which is designed for wear with this suit and blouse, is made of the same material as the blouse —that is, dotted foulard —and Is faced with plain blue taffeta. It inbound with dark blue gros grain ribbon and a band of the same ribbon ties tho er&vwu—- ,

NEWEST HANDBAG IS OF FUR

Convenience Matches the Muff, Toque or Trimming of Coat—Many Other Striking Designs. Really perhaps there is nothing very novel In the handbags’ of the moment. But just the same there are many new ones in the shops, as fresh and crisp—if one can call a handbag of softest chiffon velvet crisp—as possible. One handbag that is extremely seasonable is that made of fur. It matches, of course, the muff or the toque or the collar or the trimming on one’s coat or frock. Sometimes, indeed, it is muff and handbag combined —although even this idea is not new, as it- was introduced a couple, of years ago. Then there are the lovely bags of chiffon velvet or velours made with, dull silver settings—not too much of the metal, and the metal not too bright and shiny. Some of these bags are the ones with the octagonal or oval top that clamps down at one sidegTaced with a really good mirror. And the bit of chased silver .is the framework of the top. and of course the metal clasp, as well; is of the silver. This same idea is carried out with dull woods of various shades of brown. Sometimes, with these bags, a big wooden bead forms part of . the tassel at the bottorh. Tassels are the almost universal finish to the smaller handbags. When a bag reaches that larger size that puts it in the class of a shopping bag, it is not tasseled at the bottom. But the handbag almost always swingsa tassel, of strands of chenile. Of heavy twisted silk, of beads, either of steel, of jet or of colored glass, or else a combination of wooden beads and heavy strands Of silk. Some of the new bags have linings of green, blue or pink * and white checked silk, quite like gipgham in general appearance Indeed, they are., of silk gingham. At first thought a little checked design of pink tod white is no suitable lining for a state-

ly bag of black chiffon velvet that emits anyway $lO, but still this n<*tv lining is novel, and it is dainty and fresh as well. Moreover, it wears fairly well, somethingnet-al ways to befeund. - ■ ~ .v '■ —_ Most of the handbags have small purses within that are attached to the top framework by means of little chains. This obviates the necessity of feeling blindly about in the depths of the bag for the change purse, as one has had to do in the small-mouthed bags of the moment.

COPY WAISTCOATS OF MEN

Garments Donned by Fastidious Beaux of Other Days Now Charming Fashion for Women. Waistcoats and waistcoat blouses are among the newest fashions from Paris, and are one more of the many charm! ng old-fashioned modes whi ch have been adapted to present-day styles. This particular fashion was taken from the clothes worn, not by the women, but by the men of long ago, for waistcoats of varied and brilliant -fabrics were the garments most delighted in by the fastidious beaux of other days. No less varied and fanciful are the waistcoats of today. They are made in the most delicate of chiffons, as well as in such wool materials as these times offer. Some of them consist of a front section of metal brocade which shows dhly when the coat is open, and others are made like a blouse, with sleeves of chiffon or crepe de chine, and with back and front of brocade or satin. _ • - - Waistcoats of this kind are word with a suit, and when the coat is open they look much more substantial and effective than the ordinary blouse. Without the coat they make a onepiece costume of the suit, and one is not aware of any lack of harmony such as usually results from the use of an ordinary blouse and the suit skirt.

WHEN THE HAT DOES NOT FIT

Illy Adjusted Headgear Furnishes Enough Discomfort to Make a Woman Look Her Worst If you can help it, never go out wearing a hat which does not fit the head. There is enough discomfort in it, observes a fashion writer, to to make any woman- look her worst When we met Eloise the other day her face wjis so full of distress we asked anxiously If, she' were 111, or worried; or only tired. “None of those things,” she exclaimed, tragically, “but I’ve a hat on that seems to stand up and caper over my head, instead of sitting there decently and in order. Hurt, of course it does; hurts my- head and my vanity —to say nothing of the wear and tear on my temper.” Surely nothing could be more smart and yet more conservative in every detail than a semi-tallored hat of tobacco-brown velvet. This simple, round shape is effectively trimmed with a tan-colored quill placed around the crown of the hat, and above this is arranged a band of French squirrel feather edge in the same coloring as ‘file quill and hat. This softens the line of the hat and really adds to the practicality of the trimming.

BROWN CHIFFON VELVET

This charming afternoon gown 1s fashioned in brown chiffon velvet. It has bands of satin trimming of the same shade. The hat is of brown velvet with a brim of brown angora. A soft band and bow of satin forms the sole trimming. / .
