AN AHACTOF GRIP USUALLY LEAVES KIDNEYS IN WEAKENED CONDITION Doctor* in all parts of the country have been kept busy with the epidemic of grip which has visited so many homes. The ermptoms of grip this year are often very distressing and leave the system in a run down condition, particularly the kidneys which seem to suffer most, as almost every victim 'complains of lame back add urin ary troubles which should not be neglect ed, as these danger signals often lead to dangerous kidney troubles. Druggists report a large sale on Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root which so many people say soon heals and strengthens the kidneys after an attack of grip. Swamp-Root, being an herbal compound, has a gentle effect on the kidneys, which is al most immediately noticed in most cases by those who try it. Dr. Kilmer A Co., Binghamton, N. Y., offer to send a sam ple size bottle of Swamp-Root, on receipt el ten cents, to every sufferer who re quests it. A trial will convince anyone who may be in need of it.

Bawd on Living Cost The scheme of wage advances adopt ed Is based on an Inquiry Into the cost of living, which the commission found has Increased approximately 40 per cent to the average railroad em ployee receiving SBS a month. The commission favors a shorter average workday, presumably eight hoars, bnt decided that In the war emergency the nation could not afford to put Into effect a reform that would slow down the war machinery and discriminate against other classes of workers being called upon for great sacrifice*. , • . .

The report of the commission, con sisting of Franklin K. Lane, secretary of the Interior; Charles O. McChord, J. Harry Covington, and William B. Willcox, Is an exhaustive one. In part the report says: The requests which have come to us for wage Increases, would, if fully granted. Involve an additional outlay la wages of somewhat over $1,000,000,- 000 per year In excess of the wage fund of last year, which exceeded $2,000, 000,000.

"The commission recommends that during the period of government con duct of the railroads no salaries paid to officials who are not essential ,to the operation of. the roads shall be charged as part of the operating ex penses. “There should be constituted a tri bunal or tribunals to continue the study of railroad labor problems, com posed In part at least of men experi enced In this kind of work, for con ditions are ever changing."
