' SAVED ft MAN'S L

Gary Corporal One cf U. S. A. "Pigeon Men"; Interesting Story of Good Work Done by One of the Birds.

TBt Uniteo Pre??. WITH TliK AMERICAN ARMT IN" ritANCE, Oct. 4. "orp t'harles Diork of Gary is one of the American army's trained "pigeon men" and one of his riceon saved a man's life. i: happened in the dayr? before the St.

Mihiel salent was wiped out and while the Americans were holding the 4-year-o!d Hint before Selcheprey. It was an inky Mack night, but patrolling: was necessary, and a little group of doughboys crawled over the parapet, through the wire and out into Xo Man's land. One of the boys carried a pigeon basket on his back. The light wicker carrier fitted betw een his - shoulders and he scarcely noticed the weight of it. The man with the pigeon basket was assigned to go to the ripht of the main patrol body, v-ith the understanding that the entire unit would meet at a specified place at a certain tune. Hut a barrage came down. The boche heard the movement and turned Joo? artillery. The lone American -wits cut oft. To escape the barrage he v as compelled to take cover in a position fivm which he knew escape was impossible. A single American moving there would be certain to brlnj: outposts upon him. A stronger force could fight the outposts off. or possibly get back to us lines without combat because enemy outposts would not cave to start trouble with superior numbers. The American thought these things over. Then he thought of the pipo'i in his baket. lie scribbled a tiote living his position and asking assistance." This he slipped into the little n'uminum message box on the pigeon's log. The bird flew away. Ten minutes later a patrol was approaching the stranded American's position. Kive minute" more and he was

IT'S NOT YOUR HEART; IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS

Kidney disease is-no respecter of perf ''tis. It attacks all classes, regardless of ug. sex or conditions. A ir.-ijority of th" iils afflicting people today can be traced back to the kidney trouble. The kidnevs are the most important organs of the body. They are the t'lterers. the purifiers, of your blood. If the poisons which are swept from the tissues bv the blood are not eliminated through the kidneys, disease of one form if another will claim you as a victim. Kidney disease is usually indicated by weariness, sleeplessness, ' nervousness, despondency, backache, stomach trouble. C.ifrieulty when urinating, pain in loins snd lower abdomen, gall stones, gravel, rheumatism, soiattea and lumbago. All these derangements are nature's signals to warn you that the kidneys iwarl Vieln Ymi should 11-ie i '1 ,T"

on his way back to the lines with his reinforcements. I "How did you find put wher I was?" the doughboy asked the patrol leader, as they climbed back over the rarapct to safety. "Pigeon mesiage." came the response. "Well, I'll be darned; 1 Just played that as an outside bet. and didn't hope to win." the doughboy countered, "but I'll sure hnng close to those pigeons from now on." What happened was that when the pigeon was released from the American's hiding place near the boche lines, it flew straight to its cote near division headquarters. The message was quickly read, and regimental headuartcrs called on the telephone. Regimental headquarters called the post command in U'e front line' and within a couple of minutes the patrol was scrambling out to the rescue. In adidtion to flying in the most ficult weather, war pigeons have displayed their stamina and "nerve" by sticking at tluir work even though wounded. Ono pigeon arrived at a certain American cote with a flesh wound in the breast. Others have had the closest possible calls by filing shell splinters, but always they have kept to the air until they re ached home. Trained "pigeon mfli" are in charge of t lie American birds in-.

The Entire Fight i3 Being! Waged on Congressional ; Delegation.

Br T-'NITEn rRES3.J IXDlANArOLIS. Oct. 2i r-One of the main reasons'for the apparent lack of interest in the present political oampuU'n according to the belief of political leaders here, is the absence of state Issues from the contest. T"i actually the entire fight is being waged over the congressional delegation. The only thing which has served to bring: the fact to the voters' attention that itate officials would be also be chosen this year, was the statement issued by the Indiana dry federation pointing out the attitude of various candidates for the legislaure on the liquor .question. In the congressional campaign the chief interest seems to be in the second district where Fred Bays and his democratic supporters are making a desperate effort to unseat Oscar Eland, r publican. Kaiph Moss, In the fifth district is also making a strong appeal to the democratic voters to return him to conress ii. p'.ace of Everett Sander--. iepi.biic.n w-i.o whs elected in 1916.

At a meeting: of the Manufacturers' Association of Kast Chicago and Indiana Harbor held yesterday at tho First Calumet Trust and SaviHg-s Bank, it was decided to use the influenza vaccine on all employees at the tarious industries. The meeting- was attended by members of the association ly local physicians and by Dr. Taul M.. Holmes of the United States Public Health Department. As a result a large quantity of vaccine points have been ordered and with a limited supply on hand the work of vaccination begran this morning- Drs. JT. D. Metcalf and II. It. Shie. with the commission of the V. Health Department, now working- on the survey in East Chicago, will assist the local doctors in this work, and other physicians will be called from 3ndianapolis and other points. At this meetins, it developed that the physicians were having a good, deal of trouble in impressing upon- the people the need of adequate ventilation in the homes where the influenza prevails. One doctor said that it vns almost impossible in the foreign actions to get the people to open their windows and that this was a very large element in the high death rate that is prevailing. It developed also that the city is in danger of an eidmic of diphtheria. Three cases were iisoovered by Dr. G. W. Miller withir. n hour's time yesterday and it is believed that there have been seventy-five to a hundred exposures. Today, the local health board are after this situation v ith a doctor and nurses and are quarantining and examining as fast as possible.
