'i. Health Was Shattered South Boston Woman Tells How She Suffered Before Doan's Cured Her. **I mi in awful shape from kidney disease,"'•ays Mi*. W. F. Sterritt,. 787 Dorchester Ave., South Boston, Mass. "My health waa shattered and 1 would often fall in a heap. Had someone stabbed me in the back with a knife, the pains could not have been worse. "I lost thirty pounds, was terribly nervous and could not do my housework. Hunting •pells came on and my feet and limbs swelled so badly I couldn't wear my shoes. Puffy sacs came under my eyes, my skin looked shiny and the impression of a finger left a dent that remained for some time. "My kidneys were in awful shape and it aeemea that I had to pass the secretions every hour. The passages were scant and terribly distressing. I was feverish at night and perspired profusely. "I was discouraged until told about Doan's Kidney Pills. They brought improvement from the first and about a dozen boxes cured me. My care has lasted."

Analyzing the Kaiser. In the American Magazine ltoolli Tarkington admonishes us to use tin kaiser as nn object lesson—as a hor rible example of what not to emulate. In cloning he says: "Filially, we ought not to be unchari table! even to the kaiser. I believe we ought to say of him: As a kaiser he Is the climax and the centrifugal point of the most detestable ambition that the world has known aud as a man he Is the most blindly false, the most de voutly cruel and tho most religiously ftelftah of all the false, cruel and selfish »nen whose traits have been shown forth by spectacular performances In history. And as a man and a kaiser combiued he is the most calamitous thing that lias ever happened to the earth. "But, then lest we be outdone in charitableness by the gentlemen-in-the bar-room, who did not wish to seem to be merely abusive, we should add: "But, outside of that, he's all right."

In working with the United States army Y. M. C. A. in France there Is one great thing that stands out above all others—opportunity. There can be no frills or shams with the American sol dier in.France it is the real, stuff that counts, and it is Just plain man to man always so if he makes good and you make good, you both sueceed, and if you don't you fall. I knew as little about opening a "hut" as 1 did about opening a hotel, but after two days of being general utility man in a well run hut in a large town I was told I was to have one of my own—all my own, to sink or swim by. Late one October afternoon 1 was set down from a motor truck in a small village in northern Franco with a load of can teen supplies and a piano and told to "go to it." In a moment I was sur rounded by a mob of excited boys, and the piano was being played before it touched the ground. It was bedlam. I was deluged with questions: "Will you help with a minstrel show?" "Did you bring a football?" "Do you think we will be out of this damned place by Christmas?" My hut was in the loft of a ruined mill, with the mill race run ning beneath—a wonderful room with great beams and deep shadows, full of charm and suggestion, and it was the happiest of homes to us all for the four months we were there. My boys were not born with a silver spoon in their mouths nor with a gold en tongue. Their language was dread ful, lurid. I thought the matter over carefully, and reasoned something like this: It was as natural for them to swear as to breathe. My job was to make them as happy as possible, and they could not be happy unless they breathed, so 1 let them swear away, but I drew the line if they swore in anger at each other. I made my greatest bid for their respect and affection, and I won out, though it took me weeks to find the key to some of their hearts. They are all "my boys" now in every sense. One day a youngster, a mere lad, in whom I had taken an Interest said: "Look here, Larry, you don't know it, but I have always been a crook, a thief but somehow, I guess 1 won't be any more." E&rly in February the long expected order for active service at the front arrived, and with it my permission from the Y. M. C. A. to go with the men. I have been on two battle fronts, always with them, whether front line trenches, support, or reserve. My officers have been goodness itself and have given me every opportunity. They agree with me that the moral effect is very strong In having some one with the boys, some oneAWho does not have to be there, but who goes as a friend to live their life and to share their dangers. When posnible, I carry in supplies, sometimes fven into the front line trenches, bu^ more often it is just for a chat of mother, sweetheart, and home, and together, for a time, we can forget the foul mud, the rat infested dugouts, af.d the incessant shellfire. This is the ohance for service the Y. M. C. A. makeft possible for us older men surely the finest of chances to do some thing to mike this grim game of war less terriblo for these poor boys, many of whom hftve little understanding for what they are fighting, but are willing, ready to bieed and die at their coun try's call. COUNTESS SZANIAWSKI HELD FOR EXAMINATION Said to Have Been Friendly With Groop of Hungarians Ac cused of Propaganda Work. From the New York Times. The countess Sonia Szaniawski, also known in New York aB Mme. Sonia Zackowna, whose husband, the Count Szaniawski, in said to be an officer of the Polish Legion, now fighting with tho allies in France, was arrested by agents of the department of Justice and taken before Rufus AV. Sprague, jr., head of the enemy alien bureau. After an examination that lasted more than an hour she waa sent to Wavwly House, the government detention house for women, where she will be held pending further investigation. Countess Szaniawski was born in Gallcia, Austrian Poland, In 1888, and came to this country in 1915. She is educated, and Is said to have traveled extensively In Russia, France, England and other parts of the world.. She has been making her New York home •t 100 Central Park South. Prior to her marriage to Count Szaniawski she was married to a man named Zack owna, which accounts for the fact that she is known under that name in cer ain circles. Zackowna is said to have died several years ago.^ No Information was given at the enemy alien bureau regarding the countess* alleged activities. It was not denied, however, that she had been on very friendly terms with a certain group of Hungarians whose activities have been the sub.ieot of investigation for some weeks. One these men is said to be Julius Pirnitzer, the former enemy alien president of the Trans-At lantic Trust Company, who was arrest* ed as a dangerous enemy alien severaV weeks ago and who, it is said, will shortly be transferred to an internment camp. Captain Franz Rlntelen, the German plotter and spymaater, who was too ill to be moved from the Toms to the Bissex countv Jail on Thursday, was taken to the New Jersey prison yester day. Rintelen protested vigorously as he was 'fd, handcuffed to a deputy marshal, from «he Tombs to a waiting patrol wagon. He la reported to bp much broken in-health. Marshal Mc Carthy said yesterday he thought he would improve in the Essex county Jail. Stephen Bbytsky, a Russian, who says he is a bolshevist and an enemy of the United States, was brought to New York from Yonkers yesterday. In the enemy alien bureau he said he was »n his way to Russia to take up arms against the allies. He probably will b» sent to Bellvue for obscrvatlon.
