GOOD HOME RECIPE.
Says Any Ono Can Prepare it. and
Knows Nothing Better To Take.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a well-known authority.
Every man, woman and child here
should dress as warmly as possible,
and. abQve all else, keep the feet dry.
Avoid colds and exposure, and don't
become constipated.
Rheumatism is strictly a blood dis

proper diet, fail in their duty OF filter

not strained from the blood promptly.
dccompUses and settles about the
Joints and muscles, causing rheumatic
disease.
In damp or chilly cold weather the
kidneys are made to do double work.
The pores Of the skin all over the body
do not assist in eliminating the pOis-
ons Of the body, throwing this work to
the kidneys, which become clogged and
feeble, thus causing not only rheuma-
tism. but all forms Of kidney troubles,
backache, weak bladder and urinary
troubles, and sometimes terrible blood
disorders.
At the first sign Of any Of these
troubles the following simple prescrip-
ton should be mixed and taken in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime: Fluid Extract DandeliOn.
one-half ounce; Compound Kargon.
one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsa-
parilla three ounces.
Any good pharmacy can supply
these ingredients, and all the mixing
required is to shake well in bottle.

BOYS STEAL AUTO
FROM COMMISSIONER

Police Commissioner Woodill was Civ
en- an example of the work of thieves
last night when five boys stole his
valuable Winton touring car and drove
It at a flying pace through the down
town streets.
The car was stolen from in front Of
the Maud Junction fight pavilion. A
small boy had been left to watch Il
while the owner was inside This lad
is said to nave invited four other boys
to take a ride with him and the crowd
started Oft.
Policemen who saw the great car go
ing through the streets noticed the
drivers were inexperienced and at last
one of them stopped It. Immediately
four boys jumped out at the opposite
side and the officer was only able To
capture one.
This proved to he George Neshigina. a
japanese, and upon being taken to the
police station he admitted that he was
one of those who took the car and gave
the names of his companions. They will
be arrested today.

DENIES 'SALOME'
IS IMMORAL PLAY
Composer Strauss Says Prurent Minds
May Disapprove of Sensational
Drama, but Morality Never
Enters Into Art

CHICAGO, Jan. 3O.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from New York says that
Richard Strauss, composer of the sem
sational musical setting of oscar
Wilde's drama, "Saome," in an inter-
view with the New York World corre-
spondent in Berlin yesterday expressed
his opinion of the furore created by the
presentation of the musical drama here
in these words:
"Prbbably there are two classes of
persons in New York who discover that
Salome' is immoral. The first are those
whose own lives, especially their secret
lives, are not above reproach, men and
women whose minds dwell on things
prurient, who have sounded in their
thoughts all that is morally base.
THE second are those who oppose
any and all dramatic treatment of a
biblical story or legend. To these peo-
pie Saint Saens Samson and Delilah'
is immoral; so are all mystery plays and
passion plays.
In art there is never the moral nor
the immoral; such conceptions are in
compatible with the conception of art.
In art there is only good and bad. Is
an artists work good art? Is it bad
art? These are legitimate questions
| the artist must face and answer.
"In Berlin and other cities 'Salome
has been given upon the stages of royal
theaters. It's art has been approved by
specialists whose morality cannot be
questioned, What Is good enough foi
these famous stages is good enough fol
! New York. II is really all the same rc
me whether or not New York rejects
! Salome'"

TALKS TO HIGH SCHOOL YOUTHS
Thousands Cheer the commoner and
Give College Yells

Perhaps no part of Mr.. Bryans re-
ception in Los Angeles was more graft
flying to the great commoner than his
visits to the two high schools. Cheered
by 5000 young Americans who, IN their
earnestness burst out in noisy enthusl-
asm, the statesman received a welcome
of which any man could feel proud.
At the Los Angeles high school Mr'
Bryan addressed the assembled pupils
i'm the open air. Again and again the
applause of the hearers added eloquenee
TO his utterances as he spoke on the
making of an orator Nathan Cole Jr,,
Mayor Harper, Dr. E. C. Moore and
several members OF the board of educa-
tion accompanied him.
AT the Polytechnic high school MT
Bryan's entrance into the auditorium
was marked by shower of tiny Amer
lean flags, one of which he caught and
placed in his lapel. The school rooters
greeted him with his old college yell
the Illinois yell. A song composed es-
pecialy for the occasion was sung by
the pupils. MIR. Bryan spoke on the
benefits of education and his speech
called forth repetition OF the enthusi-
asm shown at Los Angeles high earlier
in the day.

The letter came from a farmer in the

The letter had a tale to tell which
fairly made the air seem blue. In a
