Justice For Huns Who Planned War Is Urged; Payment of Loss Demanded New York, Aug. 29.—Creation of a "period of reparation," during which the Allies may collect from Germany Jn wealth and in personal penalties some measure of damages for the untold horrors that have come into the world in the wake of ruthless Prussian ambition for su preme domination, is recommended by .Maurice Leon, authority on inter national law. This period of reparation, it Was suggested by Mr. Leon, should ex tend for fifty years to strike a bal ance with the fifty years, approxi mately, in which the German people have been voting the war budgets that put the Prussian military lead ers in the position in 1914 where, filled with confidence by the duration and extent of their preparations, they ignited the blaze that set the world afire. Mr. Leon said public sentiment in America had been swinging with in creasing momentum of ljite toward a conviction that no terms of peace will be satisfactory to this country which do not provide for the .trial and punishment of individual Ger mans. high and low, who are re sponsible both generally and speci fically for the long lists of atrocious crimes that stain the German record in this war.

The kidneys are the most overwork ed organs of the human body, and when they fail in their work of filter ing out and throwing off the poisons developed in the system, things begin to happen. One of the first warnings is pain or stiffness in the lower part of the back; highly colored urine; loss of appetite; indigestion; irritation, or even stone in the bladder. These symptoms indi cate a condition that may lead to that dreaded and fatal malady, Bright's disease, for which there is said to be no cure. You can almost certainly find imme diate relief in GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules. For more than 200 years this famous preparation has been an unfailing remedy for all kidney, blad der and urinary troubles.
