REPORTED INDICTED
By Craighead County Grand Jury
Which Has Been Going After
Law Breakers.
Up to Saturday afternoon the!
grand jury had returned 145 in
dictments and there will proba
bly be 15 to 25 more today, says
the Jonesboro Sun. In most of
the cases it is probable that the
same defendant is indicted on
many counts.
Judge Hughes has instructed
the sheriff to arrest all the par
ties for whom indictments have
been found and see that they
give bond or confine them in the
county jail.
At present most of them are
out of the city. That porti m of
lower Main street, wnere the
tigers and gambling resorts have
their sway, has a deserted ap
pearance, and it is surprising to
note by their absence the num
ber of young men who know
something of law breaking along
these lines. As fast as they re
turn, however, they will be ar
rested.

LIFE ON A TORPEDO BOAT.
Che -Men Have to Take Their Sleep
and Food in “Catch as Catch
Can” Fashion.
A man on a torpedo boat has to catch !
his sleep “on the fly,” and he become* j
exceedingly expert, being young and i
adaptable, at making up the required
amount of slumber in little mosaics of
an hour now, half an hour then and ten
minutes later on. He becomes accus
tomed to drop into a doze whenever a
favorable minute arrives and he Is not
on duty, and to stay in that condition
until a sudden lurch of the boat shakes
it out of him. Never at sea does he ex
pect to be able to turn in for a full
night’s sleep, says a writer in the Boston
Globe.
This difficulty of sleeping on a torpedo
boat at sea la one of the principal rea
sons why the fleet of destroyers sent to
Manila had an itinerary arranged for It
which provided for 90 days spent In port
and only 70 at sea. This 90 days of rest
against 70 of active seagoing Is calculat
ed to be about the limit of endurance of
a picked crew on a torpedo boat. A de
stroyer, it must me remembered, is only
a torpedo boat of a larger growth, and
not so much larger as to make any mate
rial difference in the amount of discom
fort and strain put upon the crew, espe
cially where the theater of action Is the
open ocean.
A man who has had much service on *
torpedo boat said to the writer:
“It Is not only sleep with which yon
have to play catch as catch can on board
a torpedo boat, but you have to play tag
with your food as well. If there wae
anything like a sea on, we never used to
thlnk,of sitting down to table, but took
such food as we could get In one hand

"The cook always, or almost always,
used to make coffee for us, though how
he managed It was a mystery, for.
though he used to lash the coffee pot
to the top of the stove and toe down
the lid, the pitching and the rolling ot
the boat in a heavy seaway would spill
a large portion of the contents of the pot
out through the spout.
“Then cookey would put a cork In
the mouth of the spout, and when the
boiling cofTee generated steam enough
the lid would blow off, or the cork would
ty out. Altogether, it was only by the
exercise of indefatigable energy and
skill of the sort which ought to have
been recognized In generhl orders that
finally enough coffee would be manufac

I Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping “it will wear away,” are B
I drifting towards Bright’s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. £
\9\ FOIEY'SKIDNEYCURE
■ stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues H
■ of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out B
B * the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and B
■ • the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body, B
V causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. B
B - If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY’S B
B V KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a B
■ J fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system. B
How to Find Out.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are
out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE should be taken
at once.
G. B. Burhans Testifies After Four Years*
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
“About four years ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirely
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of
Foley’s Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment and
pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stay cured, »”d
heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cura to any one suffering i. 4
kidney or bladder, trouble. ’
