MUNICIPAL REFERENDUM ACT
 VERY LIMITED IN POWER

Little Rock, July 30-The munici- pal referendum act passed by the last Legislature is proving to very limited in its powers. By strict interpreta- tion of the law, it appears that scarce ly anything besides franchises are re- ferrable, and only kinds of franchises are included
 The people of Glenwood sought to have referred an ordinance prohibit ing the erection of wooden buildings in limited district of the town. there by establishing a fire district. At tolney General Moose held that such an ordinance is not referrable as it comes within the police power of the city. The act says:
 "No order of referendum shall be allowed upon any ordinance that is for the support and maintenance of the municipal government in any or it's branches; for deficiencies in form CT appropriations; for the exercise of police power, or for the immediate re- lief of persons in distress.

Il thought you couldn't understand English" 1 remarked. His reply was somewhat disconcerting: q can't. But can read it."
 Casually I sidled toward the exit, while the guide explained that Mr. Red Man Who -Flees- Not is a grad uate of Harvard.
 We walked around the pueblo and later came upon one of the braves whom l had met. He was sitting in the shade of an abode hut industrious ly reading that same paper. notic- ed that it was upside down.
 For the love of Mike. Look at that overgrown child pretending to read that paper" l exclaimed to the guide. What are you reading about that's so interesting, Mir. Rain-in-the- Face?"
 The gentleman in question looked at me sadly and remarked q read here, MT. Scotty, where every man he tend to his own dam business"
 The duce of associating with In- dians is that you never can tell till you've tried 'em. And then you're likely to be wrong!"
 This fellow who bosses the Indians says they are going to perform their ceremonial rites and dances-what- ever that is Mavbe inc nevt hatch of red men will include some bearcat dancers, but these look to me more like sitters. There are many other interesting features about the Desert, but guess they'ill keep till my next letter.

THE UNSCIENTIFIC SCIENTIST
 ScOtty On The Desert.

San Diego Exposition, July, 1914. Dear Herb;
 Have you heard about our Indians (Note the our)? We've got bunch of them in the Painted Desert that the Santa Fe is building on the Isthmus. Not the regular Isthmus, you know, but the "Isthmus" at the San Diego Exposition. It's the amusement street lots more fun than the regular 18th mus.
 We'll, I went out to see poor Lo on the Painted Desert the other day and was formally introduced to the chief, Napeshneeduta (Red- Man Who Flees- Not,) and to some of his braves. I struggled to entertain him with airy persifage but he just gazed at me stolidly and didn't seem to appreciate my efforts. 1 thought maybe he was human enough to be interested in his own affairs so 1 asked him how many squaws he had-it seems to me that they have polygamous tendencies but he just looked at me disgustedly and grunted, "No sabe. No speak English"
 Feeling that my intellectual sweet ness was being wasted on the desert heir, I turned to the guide and very frankly expressed my views on h. dians in general. 1 showed him copy of local paper containing write-up about these particular ones. He glanced at it and then handed it to MT. Red Man -Flees- Not. Five minutes later I glanced at MT. Red Man-Who- -Flees-Not and he was still earnestly scrutinizing the paper.

CLEANS KIDNEYS
If your Back is aching or Bladder

When your kidneys hurt and your back

waste and stimulates them to their nor
NAL activity. The function of the kid
neys is to filter the blood In 20 hours
they strain from it 500 grains of acid
and waste, so we can readily understand
the vital Importance of keeping the kid
neys active.
Drink lots of water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
n tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast each morning for a few
days and your kidneys will act fine
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for genera
tons to clean and stimulate clogged kid
neys; also to neutralize the acids in
urine so IL no longer is source of irri-
tation, thus ending bladder weakness
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
lure; makes n delightful effervescent
hthia- water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean and active. Try this, also
keep up the water drinking, and no
doubt you will wonder what became of
your kidney trouble and backache.
