IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.

Does your back ache? Do you get up lame in the morning9 Do you feel dull and tirnd? Does 1t hurt you to bend over, to lift anything, to get up from a chair? Do you have sud- dea catches" or stitches of pain in the back? Does a dull, throbbing ache settle in the small of your back and bother you day and night? Do you sometimes feel that you simply cannot straighten up?
 If you do have backache, be care full not to make the very common mistake of treating it as a muscular trouble. Do not rub the sore place with liniment, nor put or pIasters, for the seat of the trouble is inside In the kidneys, which lie just be- aeath the small of the back, on either nde of the spine.
 A cold, a chill. a fever, overwork, ,ver-eaung or over-drinking may tart a slight congestion or infam- nation in the kidneys that will at ssse interrupt the Kidneys work of ltsring the blood. It Is this cordi- Hon r1st. sets up the aching, and makes yOur back SO lad.

turned only about half. Much less is now being consumed in the arts for adornment than formerly, owing to business depression, and consider able amounts have been returned from hoarding since the panic. In ordinary times we should reduce such swollen surplus by exporting it to Europe. But the foreign banks all ready hold about s150,000,000 more gold than a year ago and have no present need to call upon us, with South Africa breaking all records in output. In July the Rand district produced 590,000 ounces of gold, compared with 5SS,000 ounces in December. This world wide ease in money and surfeit of gold must exert an infationary effect upon values. When not wanted for purposes of le- gitimate business it will surely be used for speculation. Such a state Of affairs may be undesirable, be- cause reaction will surely follow, de- laying rather than accelerating gen. uine recovery.

Among all the nations of the world
 Germany receives the credit of being
 the most thoroughly scientific. She
 does with her limited natural re-
 sources what younger nations will soon be compelled to do in self-pro-
 lection; she conserves them. When our wood supplies, stored up from
 100 to 500 years. are within sight of their end, and sawmills that have been moved from the white pine belt of the north to the yellow pine belt of the south have been moved to the Pacific coast for their last stand, then Germany's scientific forestry policy will receive better recognition. We do not think of moving a grist mill about from one wheat field to another. as the fields in turn become exhausted. After one crop is har- vested another is coming on. So it must be with the sawmill and the crop of trees. If it takes fifty years to raise a tree of a given species, then one-fftieth of the forest may be cut each year, provided it re-seeds or is replanted-and the sawmill stays at the same place and the work men live in their permanent snug homes nearby; the lumber shanty'' will be a thing of the past; raising trees a business like raising wheat.

MONEY FROM TREES.
State Revenues From National For,
 ests Amount to Very Large Sum.

Figures just made public by the forest service show that under the new law requiring 25 per cent of the gross proceeds of national forest business to be paid over to the states and territories in which the forests are located, to be used for public schools and roads, the last fiscal year will yield these states s447,O63.79.
 The amounts which go to each vary from S31S.6S for Arkansas to over S75,000 for Montana. The small amount for Arkansas is because the two national forests in that state were created so recently that they have not yet got fairly under way. Oklahoma, with one, small national forest. receives s554; Kansas. s644: and the next smallest after these is Nebraska. with s2,350. Since the forests in these last two states were set aside from land naturally desti- ute of trees. that the government might try forest planting on them, it will probably surprise most people that they should yield any revenue at all.
 National forest business is chiefly of three kinds, grazing. timber sales and special uses; the latter compris- ing the use of the lesser resources of the forests and the permits involving the development of water power. It IS interesting to note the states in which the largest volume of each of these three kinds of business is done and study the causes which make their revenues correspondingly lar ger.
 Montana, California and Colorado lead in timber sales In the case of Montana and California this fact is mainly due to the accessibility of the timber in the national forests. The fact that the timber can be readi- ly reached and quickly transported 10 market has created a heavy demand which is reflected in the volume of business. Colorado is almost abso- lutely dependent upon the national forest timber for its mining opera tiOns- Each of these states will re- esive over s5o.0 from the proceeds of the forests.
 Luaho. Juan and oregon head the list of the states in grazing business. The causes in this case are several In the first place these states are sgp- piled with more abundant forage. largely on account of more plentiful precipitation In some cases she ranges will support a sheep 10 the acre. whereas the ranges elsewhere will often support 10 more than one sheep 10 from four to six acres. Axair the grazing methods are. as a rule. more intensive in these states. a higher class of hsrders is enploysd. and a better grade of stock is kept.

The supreme court of Minnesota has upheld a woman who sued a street railway company whose con- ductor elected her from a car be- cause she presented a transfer which he claimed was not good. The court holds that the transfer is merely a certificate, not a new contract; that it was the duty of the defendant con- pany to issue correct transfers: that. as a passenger is not bound to ex- anime them, plaintiff was entitled to continue her journey notwithstand- ing an error of the company.

Those who gather mushrooms these early morning should be sure they know what they are doing. The Springfield Republican says that number of deaths may be traced in- directly to the recent heavy rains, which brought up a fresh crop of mushrooms, and among them the poisonous varieties which figure in the reports as 'toadstools." Consid- ering the large number of persons who now collect and eat mushrooms, the number of accidents is not large, and most people have a wholesome fear of unfamiliar varieties. Cases of poisoning are most apt to occur when a large crop brought out by wet weather attracts the notice of inexperienced persons.

 California leads in special use business, partly because of the large amount of water. power developed and partly because of the larger popula- tiont adjacent to the forests and drawing upon their resources. The state will receive as it's share of the national forest proceeds about s52,- 900.

Long Branch Police Chief swears ou'
 Warrant For Autoist.

Long Branch, N. J., Aug. 1T.--Million- aire E. R. Thomas of New York, who demolished Emil Seelig's team and wagon while auto speeding, is severely injured and lies in the City hospital here.
 He has been served with papers in an assault charge brought by Daniel Connolly, driver of the Seelig rig.
 The warrant was read to MT. Thom. as in his private room in the hospital by Constable George H. Miller. Bail was set at $500. -..
 Chief James Layton swore out a war. rant for the arrest of Mir. Thomas for reckless driving. Chief Layton said he would not serve the warrant until MT. Thomas was able to receive visitors. Two. other suits, in all probability, will likely face Mir, Thomas when he gets out, one for injuries sustained by Mrs. Hyman Cohen and her daughter Helen and the other by MT. Seelig. MT.

cal government one of the chief ob-
 stacles to progress encountered by
 the National Municipal league and
 other organizations active in the
 cause, is the tendency of the aver
 age citizen to regard the work as a
 fad or an expensive hobby, says a
 municipal league writer. This
 view is encouraged by the prac-
 tical politicians, who argue readily
 that the only apparent results of the
 reform legislation obtained have been
 an increase of public expenses. And
 so it would seem, taking only the pre-
 judiced and narrow view of the prac-
 tical politician There is more to
 the proposition, however. In fact, it
 is not that the movement for better
 government fosters extravaganza, but
 rather that the indifference of citi-
 zens to their civic duties creates a
 condition the immediate remedy for
 which, in the judgment of men mak-
 inga study of the problems, requires
 legislation that, at the beginning of
 its enforcement, naturally requires
 considerable expenditure. It is true that the personal registration of
 voters, the adoption of the uniform primary elections system and similar
 laws have added somewhat to the cost of operating the subordinate governments, but this increase is the price which must be paid to make ballot frauds more hazardous and to guarantee honest elections. It is the same sort of an expense as that for police protection. It is true also that however much legislation may be enacted, that will not produce good government If there is a con- tinuing indifference of the majority of the citizens of any community. It should be borne in mind that the most of the reforms adopted have made it more and more dangerous to commit wrongs, and, of highest i'm portance, have provided the means whereby in a single election, or in two at most, it will be possible for citizens to seize con- trol of the government once they
 really desire it. In the course of time, there will be an awakening to the obligations of citizenship. When that time arrives the foresight of the reform organizations, as manifested in their persistent and intelligent de- mand for ballot legislation, will have made possible the easy and immedi- ate control of the government by the citizens. Then 1t will be demonstrat- ed that the present work of the Ma tional Municipal league and affliat- ed organizations laboring in every [ has been neither fad nor hobby. Then the wis dom of present efforts will be shown to have been a tremendous factor in | the cause of the people. Incidentally | the work of the league and kindred | is not only to obtain | legislation. Their greater work is l he education of the indifferent citi- gens to the practical and profitable | of good government. This
 s being carried forward systematical- Iy upon an extensive plan and. | .hough it attracts little attention. 1t Is producing results which cannot be with exactitude. but which I are beyond the understand l ng of the practical politician and the | indifferent citizen.

CHICAGO. May 2s.--one man was

les were driven to the street by a IRE
which early today destroyed the
sI0O, 900 plant Of the Standard Sash
and Door company at 1919 Center
avenue.
Two men, who gave their names
as Victor Altman and Joseph Brown,
were arrested near the scene on sus-
picion of having set fire to the build
Ing.
The fire started with a terrible ex-
ploslon In the basement of the fac
tory. Immense piles OF lumber,
which surrounded the burning build
Ing, were soon enveloped in flames
which threatened to spread to a num-
Der OF adjoining cottages.
Several explosions of lesser force
occurred at frequent intervals, and
rendered the work of the fremen
extremely hazardous. 1t is believed
these later explosions were caused by
some paint stored in the building.
After the IRE had been in progress
about two hours the front and rear
walls collapsed. Charles Tietz, a
plpeman, was struck by falling bricks
and seriously injured.
