It's hard to keep an even temper with
a dull pain nagging all day at your
back; in fact. kidney troubles are at the
bottom of very much Of the nervous
ness and irritability that are so COM
mon today. You wonder why you are
short and cross, can't keep your mind
on one thing, are inclined to worry over
trifles and subject to fits Of blues" aud
dependency. Partly it is due to that
pain in your back, partly to the irritat-
ing effect of uric acid on your brain
and nerves.
Uric acid is a poison that is always
forming in the body, and it is the duty
of the kidneys to filter it out of the
blood and pass it off, dissolved, in the
urine. Healthy kidneys edo this work
thoroughly and well, but weak or sick
kidneys get behind, and the waste mat
ter collects here and there in the mus
cles, joints and nerve eenters. Head
ache, dizzy spells. rheumatism, neural
gia. bury spots before the eyes. nerv-
BUSINESS and heart trouble, are signs of
uric poisoning.
So do not wonder at your condition.
especially if the urine does not look or
pass naturally. And if your back
aches continually, or you are taken with
sharp cTicks and stitches of pain when
you stoop, turn, or try 10 lift, it is sure

OATES CONFLICT WITH
G. A. R. thCAMPM EAT
National Irrigation Congress at Spo-
kane Will Be Held the
Same Week.

Some days ago Fisher Harris, secre-
tary of the Commercial club, wrote to
l.. G. Monroe, secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce at Spokane. calling his
attention to the fact that the dates Sc
Iected for the seventeenth session of the
national irrigation congress at Spokane
are the same as those for the G.. a. r.
encampment here, Aug. to a. Mr.
Harris desired to know If the dates for
the congress could not be changed, set
ting forth that the conflict of dates
would very seriously affect the exhibit
from Utah, and also the attendance
from this state. Certainly the governor
and his staff could not attend.
The following telegram, which eX-
plains itself, has been received by Mr..
Harris in reply to his communication:
Have your letter to Monroe Dates
for seventeenth national irrigation con-
gress were selected the middle of last
December in consultation with Alaska
