Like catarrh it pervades the whole
system, and counteracts the effects OF
the disease.
A great many people believe that they
have been cured of chronic Brtghts
Disease by the use Of Peruna.
1t is certainly true that in the earlier
stages of Bright's Disease, Peruna IL an
effective remedy.
Numerous testimonials on this point
establish the fact beyond all doubt.

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease

The mention of sulphur will recall
| to many of US the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us. our daily dose of sulphur and
molasses every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all,
and, mind you, this old-fashioned rem
| edy was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the rem
edy was crude and unpalatable, and
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in palatable, con-
centrated form, so that a single grain
| is far more effective than q table,
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years research and ex-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ

the name of Stuart's Calcium Waters.
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in highly con-
| centrated effective form.
| Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
| health sulphur acts directly on the
| liver and excretory organs and puri-
prompt elimination of waste material
| Our grandmothers knew of this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary
| flowers of sulphur were often worse
than the disease, and cannot compare
with the modern concentrated prepara-
tions of sulphur, of which Stuart's
Calcium Waters is undoubtedly the
| best and most widely used
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure con-
stipation and purify the blood in
way that often surprises patient and
physician alike.
DR.. R. M. Wilkins, while experiment
ing with sulphur remedies, soon found
that the sulphur from calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
For liver, kidney and blood troubles,
especially when resulting from con-
stipation or malaria, I have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from bolls and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncles, l have
repeatedly seen them dry up and dis
appear in four or five days, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuart's Calcium Waters is a propri-
etary article and sold by druggists
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet I know of nothing so
safe and reliable for constipation.
liver and kidney troubles and especial
ly in all forms of skin diseases as
this remedy"
At any rate people who are tired of
pills, cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers" will find in Stuart's Calcium
Waters, a far safer, more palatable
and effective preparation. 4-11-1S-25.

NIAGARA FALLS
LOSING POWER
SCENIC BEAUTY THREATENED
BY Factories
Committee Delegated to Investigate
Encroachment Upon Cataract Says
Water Diversion Should
Be Stopped
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-If Nj
agara falls are to be preserved as one
of the wonders of the world immedi-
ate action by the United States and
Canada is required, according to the
findings of the American members of
The International waterways commits
sion, which has for the past year been
studying conditions at the falls and
the tributary great lakes.
After a brief description of the phys
ical conditions, the report gives de-
tailed account of all the corporate
now engaged in the development of
power, with the quantity of water
which they are actually using, the
amounts which they are preparing to
use and the amounts which they are
authorized under their charters to use.
1t includes not only corporations TAX
ing water directly from the Niagara
river, but also those drawing water
for power purposes from the Erie canal,
the Welland canal and the Chicago
drainage canal and furnishes list of
all franchises granted and not per-
fected.
The report states:
1.-THE total quantity of water to be
taken from the river by works now
authorized is $4,000 cubic feet per sec
ond. Of this amount 26,700 cubic feet
is to be taken on the American side and
the remainder, $4,000 cubic feet, on the
Canadian side. That Is q per cent of
the average discharge and SO per cent
of the low water discharge of the
Niagara river will cease to pass over
the falls when these works are COM
pleted and in full operation. The
quantity to be diverted is more than
double the quantity which now passes
over the American falls, which at the
average stage is about 27,S00 cubic feet.
That this will in general have an in
furious effect upon the falls seems self
evident The volume of water to be
diverted is about the equivalent of the
entire discharge of Lake Superior
over the Sault ste. Marie. The amount
thus far actually diverted is but 1880
cubic feet per second and has an ap-
precabe effect on the falls.
additional diversion would be an
experiment even more dangerous than
that now being tried, and in our opin-
ion should not be permitted.
improvements in the transmission
of eletcric power and increased demand
will make a market for all the power
which can be developed at Niagara
falls, and will cause a destruction OF
the falls as a scenic spectacle If the
development be allowed to go on un-
| checked"

By Associated Press.

by Associated freSS.
NEW YORK, March 24.-The Inter
urban Political Equality council of
Greater New York, an organization
composed of eighteen clubs, with a
membership of over 1000 women, has
protested in a communication to the
mayor against "the shameful condition
of affairs in this city, called the white
slave traffic."
The mayor is appealed to "to see that
the police of this city do their duty,
and make it safe for honest women to
seek employment without running the
risk of being entrapped and kept by
force in vile deis."
The protest characterizes the white
slave traffic" as not only dishonor to
the city but a source of great danger
to women, as shown by the mysterious
disappearance of many respectable
working women.

Kidney Trouble Is Not Always Recog'
nized as Catarrh-Pe-ru-na Relieves
Kidney Disease Because 1t Is a
Remedy for All Phases of Catarrh

TWENTY-FIVE years ago, before
DIR. Hartman began distributing
his pamphlets, books and news
paper articles, Bright's Disease of the
kidneys was regarded as a disease
wholly distinct from catarrh.
Now, Bright's Disease is thought by
many the world over to be n phase of
catarrhal Inflammation.
To relieve Bright's Disease something
must be used that has the power to re-
lieve catarrh.
Any medicine that is a remedy for
catarrh of one organ is obviously a
medicine for catarrh of any other
organ.
Peruna is an internal, systemic ca
tarrh remedy.

Islands. Her commander said the
Dewey, which left the Canaries March

from Las Palmas is proceeding
smoothly. Fair weather has prevailed

NIGHT RECEPTION A SUCCESS
Chamber Of Commerce Crowded by
Visitors and Local Guests

The parlors of the chamber of com
merce were taxed last night during the
reception rendered the visiting WASH
ingtonians by the Los Angeles organ
ization and wealth of good feeling
lowered about the two hours of speech
making and handshaking which pre-
vailed.
Much that was of interest to Angel
enos fell from the lips of the north
ern speakers. A better understanding
of the possibilities and activities of
Washington was reached after the
conclusion of the evenings program,
as well as a hearty appreciation of
the calibre of her people.
Following the Introductory remarks
of W. j. Washburn, Judge Waldo NJ.
York verbally threw open the attrac-
tions of Los Angeles to the pilgrims
from the north.
Governor Albert E. Mead of WASH
ington responded to the cordiality of
Judge York's address and in the name
of his people expressed their pleas
ure regarding the progress of their
sojourn in Southern California.
l.. w. Pratt, secretary of the Ia
coma chamber of commerce, was the
next speaker, and made evident to
those assembled the expanse which
is attending the growth of the thriv--
ing city near the sound.

Rush the Canal

'I am glad that we have been able
to come among you of California, for
from you we have much to learn. You
are in the lead as regards the develop
ment of the Pacific slope and from
your ventures we of the north can
learn much that will be to our own
interest and future welfare"
Mr. Pratt referred to the building of
the Isthmian canal and gave vehement
Endorsement to the sentiment that the
shortened waterway should be COM
pleted at the earliest possible date.
with the near future we will possess
the necessary means of water trans
portation that shall accelerate our re-
course to eastern and European mar
kets and allow a better opportunity of
sending western products for eastern
consumption.
1T may not be improper for me TO
mention the state from which we come.
We have minerals awaiting the de-
velopment of man. We have fields
that bear marvellous crops of wheat
and valleys that produce fruits which
compare favorably with those of Cali
fornia. We have forests Of fir, of
cedar and of spruce"
Her Water Power
Mr.. Pratt told of the great timber
possibilities of Washington and gave
a graphic description not only of the
scenic features of the northern coun-
try but also of the tremendous water
power which is being developed from
the stores that follow along the frozen
sides of Mount Tacoma.
Concluding, Mr.. Pratt put forth an
earnest plea for a visit from Los An
geles citizens, with 1--WE will welcome
you with outstretched hands and warm
hearts,"
G. H. Revelle, vice president of the
Seattle Commercial club, followed the
Tacoma speaker in an address which
gave voice to the civic pride of Seattle.
Voice From Canada
Herbert Cutkbert, secretary of the
Victoria Tourist association, in a
speech which told of the unity which
is rapidly marking the life of Canada
and the United States, said THE divid-
ing line is on the map only and not
in the hearts of the people,"
Joseph Scott was called upon for
the closing address and with his char
acteristic wit apologized for the poor
showing which Los Angeles could make
against those who hailed from the
scene of such wonders" as the north
ern speakers had described.
I'VE are modest here" said Mr..
Scott, but nevertheless thought we had
something, but now"
Mr.. Scott returned the reference to
the water power of Mount Tacoma
with a recitation of what the Owens
river proposition would involve.
There is one thing to be remem-
bered, not only to take opportunities
when presented, but make them when
you haven't them."
With another appeal for the Wash
ingtonians to return again, make
known things and learn in return, the
addresses closed.
A general renewing Of old acquain-
tances, acquiring of new ones and an
inspection of the exhibits in the cham
ber of commerce was the order for
the remainder of the evening.
