NO REASON FOR IT
Waen Harris burg Citizens Show a
Way
There can bo no reason why any
roader of this who suffers the tor
tures of an aching back, the annoy
ance of urinary disorders, the pains
and dangers of kidney ills will fail to
heed the words of a neighbor who
has found relief. Read what a Har
risburg citizen says:
E. K. Dare, 430 Pelfer street, Ilar
riaburg. says: "Several years ago I
■was laid up with lumbago. The at
tacks lasted for several days at a time
and made me helpless. I couldn't
move without having a knife-like
pain across my kidneys. When I was
able to get ;„round I could hardly
bend over, and if I did I couldn't
straighten up again. Many a night I
•would have to sit in a chair from the
pain in my back. T knew my kidneys
were the cause of the trouble for I
had to pass tbe kidney secretions so
often and they contained sediment. I
doctored and tried different remedies
but got no relief to speak of. Finally
1 began taking Doan's Kidney Pills
and in a few days after I went back
to work. The sharp pain In my back
left and I was able to get around as
well as ever."

A Message to Thin,

An I'.anv WRT In l.nln 10 to .10 11m of
Solid. Hrnltliy, Permanent Flesh
Thin, nervous, undeveloped men 'and
women everywhere arc heard to say, "I
can't understand why 1 do not get fat.

The reason is just this: You cannot get
fat. no matter how much you eat, unless
your digestive organs assimilate the
fat-making elements of your food in
Mend of passing them out through the
bodv as waste.
What Is needed is a means of gently
urging the assimilative functions of the
niomach and inti-stines to absorb the
oils and fats and hand them over to the
blood, where they may reach the starv
ed. shrunken, run-down tissues and

Fargol. tiie recently discovered regener

Stomach Troubles
Due to Acidity
SO SAYS EMINENT SPECIALIST
So-called stomach troubles, such as
indigestion, wind. and stomach-ache
are in probahly nine cases out of ten
r.imply evidence that fermentation is
taking place in the food contents of
tiie stomach, causing the formation of
gas and acids. Wind distends the stom
ach. and causes that full, oppressive
feeling sometimes known as heartburn,
while the acid irritates and Inflames
the delicate lining of the stomach. The
trouble lies entirely in the fermenting
food. Such fermentation is unnatural,
end acid formation is not only un
natural. but may involve most serious
consequences if not corrected. To stop
or prevent fermentation of the food
contents of the stomach and to neu
tralize the acid, and render it bland and
harmless, a teaspoonful of bisurated
magnesia, probahly the best and most
effective corrector of acid stomach
known, should be taken in a quarter
of a glass of hot or cold water imme
diately after eating, or whenever wind
or acidity Is felt. This stops the fer
mentation. and neutralizes the acidity
in a few moments. Fermentation,
wind and acidity are dangerous and un
necessary. Stop or prevent them by
the use of a proper antacid, such as
bisurated magnesia, which can he ob
tained from any druggist and thus en
able the stomach to do its work prop
erly without being hindered by poison
ous gas and dangerous acids.— M. F. P.

WHAT IS A SIKH?
One of the unfamiliar words that
crops up in the European news in these
war times is tile word "Sikh." Nearly
every one has learned to pronounce it
"seek" and not "sick." but the exact
meaning is being diligently looked up
in many a town library.
Nowhere can be found a better de
scription of the Sikhs, Gourklias, So
wars and the various other soldiers
from India who have shown their loy
alty to the British Empire by coming
to Europe to light alongside of the
British and French than the one in
"The London Times History of tlii
War." Several of the large pages of
this work are devoted to explaining
the difference, racial and social, be
tween these dark-skinned soldiers.
Among the hundreds of illustrations
in this elaborate current iiistorv of the
war that the Times is produc
ing. are pictures of these native Indian
soldiers, who are celebrated as among
the greatest fighting units in the world.
It was in order to visit these faithful
Indian soldiers that Ixird Roberts,

Mllllrent, Duchraa of Sutherland, E«-
capra Cenaorahlp
The widowed Duchess ot Sutherland,
said to be one of the most beautiful
women in Europe, the daughter of an
Earl and organizer of a complete am
bulance service, which Is reported to
be doing splendid work in Belgium
and Fiance, has recently married a
major <n the British army.
Known for years as a philanthropist
and writer, this picturesque character.
In the midst of her Red Cross work
near the firing line, has made time to
contribute many pages to the great
"London Times History of the War."
The censorship, which Is the despair
of most correspondents, has been lifted
In the case of this patriotic noble
woman. She was present at the siege
of Liege, and through her enviable
connections with the powers that be
on the allied side, and the fact that
she has access to sources of Informa
tion denied to all other correspondents,
has written an account of the Liege
campaign that will probably stand for
many years as the one authoritative
record of this celebrated siege.
This account Is profusely illustrated
with the most dramatic Belgian pic
tures yet taken. It is written by a
heroic woman whose husband Is with
the British forces, which are bearing
the brunt of the terrific German as
saults. It forms but a single long
chapter in the elaborate, current his
tory of tiie war that is being published
by the greatest of European news
papers, The London Times.
With the care that characterizes the
editorial work of the London Times,
the Liege chapter of "The History of
the War' has been carefully edited
and reinforced by the celebrated staff
of military, naval and diplomatic ex
perts of that newspaper.
There are pictures showing exactly
how these typical modern fortresses at
Liege were operated; how the cupolas
were raised for firing and sunk again
Into the ground in such a way that no
ordinary cannon could do them any
damage. There are pictures showing
also the great ICrupp siege howitzers,
and clear descriptions of how enor
mous projectiles were dropped Inti the
supposedly Impregnable Belgian and
French forts. Pictures also show the
victorious Germans making their entry
into the captured Belgian cities.
So much technical knowledge, writ
ten in a thoroughly readable manner,
has been compressed Into tills "His
tory of the War" that it in very prob
able (hat It will take Its place among
the milltarv te.-it-books as well as in
the hundreds <»f thousands of libraries
of net-sons who insist upon 'laving
books of real authority and value.

in Flanders by American munitions"
contrasts what it asserts is the indig
nation in America over the destruc
tion wrought by the Germans in Bel
gium and the delivery of whole ship
loads of shells to England which are
heing used to destroy' Zeebrugge
Blankenberghe, Ostend. Lombacrt
syde and other seashore resorts.
"When the Germans," says the Vos
sische Zeitung" bombard a church
used by the French as an observation
point or a cover, then the full chorus
of America's moral indignation is
heard: but when England declared its
aim to starve 65,000,000 persons and
destroy the commerce by which a
great part of these millions must live
after the war America hastens, by
selling weapons, to assist in the at
tainment of this praiseworthy object."

Escapes Nervous Breakdown
—Strength Gradually Ebb
ing Away. Made Well and
Strong by Vinol.
New York City: "I have found
Vinol to be a godsend as a reconstruc
tive tonic for a run-down constitu
tion. I am an official photographer
and for a long time X suffered from
weakness and general debility, and
soon realized that my strength was
fast leaving me. I tried different
tonics without benefit, but one day I
saw Vinol advertised and decided to
try it. Before I had taken two bot
tles T had gained in health and
strength so I could do 100 per cent,
more work than before.
"Vinol is the best tonic I ever took
and T cannot say enough in its praise
to do it justice."—WlLLlAM KOHL
HOFF, 4 Irving Place, New York.
It is the combined action of the
curative elements of the cods' livers
aided by the blood-making and
strength-creating properties of tonic
iron contained in Vinol which makes
it so successful in overcoming such
conditions.
If you are weak, sickly, run-down,
and overworked, try a bottle of Vinol,
our delicious cod liver and iron tonic
without oil. with the understanding
we will return your money if it does
not help you.

KEEP URIC ACID
OUT OF JOINTS
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Eat
Less Meat and Take
Salts
Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a well-known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly: keep
the feet dry: avoid exposure: eat less
meat, but drink plenty of good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid, which is
absorbed into the blood. It is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acl'i from the blood and cast it out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also a means of freeing the blood of
this impurity. Tn damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed,
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keeps accumulating and circu
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles, caus
ing stiffness. soreness and pain called
rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
ful in a glass of water and drink be
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to nor
mal acton, thus riddng the blood of
these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and Is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with llthla,
and Is used with excellent results by
thousands or folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleas
tint. effervescent lithia-water drink
which helps overcome uric acid and is
beneficial to your kidneys aa well.—
