"Being exposed to extreme heat
when working as an engineer, and
then going outdoors to cool off
caused my kidney trouble," says
Karl Goerlng, 8513 N. Orkney St.,
Philadelphia, Pa. "In cold weutli-
er and when It was
damp, my joints and
muscles would swell
and ache and often iny
limbs were so badly af-
fected it was only with
great misery I was able
to get around. For a
week I was laid up In
bed, hardly able to
move hand or foot.
"Another trouble was from Irreg-
ular and scanty passages of the
kidney secretions. I became dull
and weak and had to give up my
Work. Headaches and dizzy spells
nearly blinded me and 1 went from
265 to 200 In weight. Nothing
helped me and I felt I wns doomed
to suffer.
"At Inst I had the good fortune to
hear of Doan's Kidney Pills and be-
gan taking them. I sof.n got back
my strength and weight and all the
rheumatic pains and other kidney
troubles left. I have remained
cured." Sworn to before me,

Despite Favorable Outlook for Nation's
Air Program, Work is Declare to be
60 Days Behind—Heads of Produc-
tion are Speeding up.
Washington, March l(i. Amerlcin
built battle planes will be in France
by July in sufficient quantity to in-
sure air protection of sectors then
held by American troops. This state-
ment rests on the highest authority
and was made tonight with recogni-
tion of disappointments that have
hampered the air program.
Figures, on the aviation situation
as well as on every other branch of
the government's war preparations
were laid today before the house mili-
tary committee as yesterday they were
disclosed to the senate committee.
Acting Secretary Crowell again presid-
ed.
The comment of Representative
Kahn of California, ranking Republi-
can member of the house committee
expressed the sentiment of the house
members on the new policy. He says
It means team work by the whole gov-
ernment on the problems that face ft.
The figures revealed to the commit-
tee; the immediate demands of the
war program and the progress in meet-
In? them he added, made it clear thnt
the countrv was still tvnawake to the
enrmitv of Its undertaking.
Mr. Kahn predicted great re«nlts
could be looked for from now on if
the weekly conferences with the legis-
lative committees are continued
It was disclosed that the aviation
program Is far short of what had been
hoped. Figures estimating the defic-
iency in percentage that have been
voted, however, were shown to ha
wrone. No such method of calculation
has been evolved. The actual de'ay
can be fiettred onlv in point of time.
The airplane production program in
the TTnited States is today substan-
tially (10 days behind what had been
hoped for bv the most sanguine offic-
ials. The following contracts which
were to have provided the in'tia.1 fight-
ing equipment for Oenoral Pershing's
sir forces are still further behind.
There is everv prospect, however, that
some of the delav will be made tip.
Even should the fin davs lost time
stand however, and even though there
should he no deliveries on the K u ro
i pean contracts, Heneral Pershing will
receive a crnsiderab'e number of
' American built planes by July. Kstt-
j mates "of the time required to get a
completed battle plane from the fatv
J tory in the United States to the front
i have been placed at 90 days. The
war department is now concentrating
its efforts to reducing the period.
Speeding tip efforts are being directed
also at every other element of the air
craft program.
"There has been too much optimism
on the one hand and too little know-
ledge of the greatness of the task on
the other," was Representative Kahn's
comment on the aviation situation.
War department officials agreed as to
this Were it not for ever-optimistic
predictions made before congressional
committees and e'sewhere, it is said,
what the air craft production board
and the signal crops have already ac-
complished would be rated as an ex-
traordinary achievement.
In this connection it was learned
that the underlying p'urpose of the
board of survey, headed by Snowden
Marshall of New York, and to which
Gaston Mc\ab of San Francisco has
been added as the third member, is to
prepare for the enlarged aircraft pro-
gram of next year. A decision was
reached some time ago that it was
necessary that some outside organiza-
tion not busy with details carrying
through this year's program be set to
work to find lost motion in the great
machine. All the mistakes and delays
are to be tnaccd to their source, to
correct immediately all weakness and
Insure fulfillment of next year's plans.
The investigation by reason of its
scope can have little effect on the pre-
sent program. Speeding up of today's
output rests with Major General
March, acting chief of staff, and the
signal corps.
The eagerness of the war depart-
ment and the air board to rush the'r
task to success, Mr. Kahn said today,
had caused them to place contracts
with manufacturers who were unable
to deliver what they promised.
THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
ARE CIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS
To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga-
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
es of this country will recognize it more
readily by its trade name. "LUCKY
STRIKE "—the toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news-
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France. .
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have a cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances, that is the first
thing asked for. —Adv.

Caviar to the General.
Although some packers of caviar In
New York report thnt spoonbill caviar
is being marketed here In bulk as low
its 75 cents a pound, the market gen
erally remains at $1.25 for prime qual-
ity, and a few sales are reported at $1.
The quantity has been limited from ail
sources and, Indeed, operators here
have not been buying heavily. There
has been a scarcity of lake caviar in
hulk, and packers report that the pre-
vailing price fori this grade has been
usually $1.50 a pound.—Fishing Ga-
