| DIR. Maude l.. Dunn, who has been lee
| turing in London on hygiene, states in
an article printed in the London Daily
Express that most of the ills OF women
are due to badiy-fitting corsets and that
corsets are the cause of half the d.
vorces in civilized countries"
"One OF my main reasons for coming
to England is to talk to women on the
necessity for proper corseting. During
my practice as a physician. and as the
! result Of the hundreds OF lectures / have
given In all parts of the States on this
subject, ! have come 70, know that most
Of the physical woes OF women are the
result of careless or pernicious corseting
Il Will go further, for / strongly be-
lieve that half the divorces in civilized
countries are caused by corsets.
Some women are always complaining.
always frowning. and always telling their
neighbors that they are full of aches
You may take II that their troubles are
due to corsets. They are. the Kind OF
| women whose husbands seek the aid OF
the divorce tribunal

mands such care in selection Fas the COR

or failure, physically and mentally. In

Experience tells me that the corset
should be three inches less than the waist
measurement, and above all. 1t should be
put on while reclining. for then the or

This Is the era of the large waist and

EAT LESS MEAT
If BACK HURTS
TAKE \ GLASS OF SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS If BLADDER
BOTHERS YOU.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a we'll known authority
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overwork
ed; get sluggish; clog up and cause
all sorts OF distress particularly back
ache and misery in the kidney region;
rheumatic twinges, severe headaches,
acid stomach. constipation, torpid
liver. sleeplessness, bladder and uri-
nary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or If blad-
der bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts Is made
from the acid OF grapes and lemon
juice. combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity: also to neutralize
the acids in the urine so 1t no longer
irritates, thus ending bladder disor-
ders
Jad Salts cannot inJure anyone:
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions OF men
and women take now and then to
keep the kidneys and urinary organs
clean. thus avoiding serious kidney

Mesa Bank to
Soon Pay First
Of Dividends

Today is the final date for proving
up claims against the Mesa County
National Bank. the three months
notice required by law having now
expired. Receiver j. j. Tobin has
sent in recommendation to the
comptroller OF the currency at Wash
ington suggesting a dividend be paid
from the assets ON hand TO the de-
positors. Just what will be done by
the comptroller in the matter is not
known. although it is possible that
either a 20 or % per cent dividend
Will be ordered now in a very short
time.
There are sufficient assets on hand
to pay % per cent dividend. but
this would practically exhaust all OF
the funds. and for that reason a less
er dividend may be ordered, leaving
a sufficient amount to pay necessa-
ry expenses.
There is a mistaken impression
that unless all depositors have filed
their claims by this time they cannot
participate in any dividend. The gov
ernment, however, makes provision
for all claimants of the bank. who
may be affected. When a dividend
is paid sufficient sum is set aside
to pay all depositors showing on the
records of the bank. and II no claim
is made for such amount IL eventu-
ally reverts to the government.
Even though a dividend is ordered
paid now, 1t may be month or so
before the checks are distributed.

HOMESTEADERS
WILL GET TITLE
To THEIR LAND
Cong. Taylor Finally Gets Bill
Through; Of Immense Benefit
10 Western Colorado.

Hundreds of homesteaders in west
crn Colorado whose lands have been
tied up so that they could not sell or
borrow on them will get their title
within a very short time now as a
result of the efforts of Congressman
Edward T. Taylor, whose bill settling
these claims has finally passed both
the house and the senate.
Information received in a special
dispatch today by the Sentinel from
Washington tells OF the action OF the
senate. and also that the measure
will be signed by President Wilson
and become n law this week.
The law known as the Taylor
Gronna bill, Senator Gronna having
iathered the measure in the senate
directs the secretary OF the interior
to issue unconditional titles to all
those homestead and desert land en-
trymen who have only surface titles
TO land. that We're at one time with
drawn as coal lands. and afterwards
eXamiped and found not to contain
CCal.
This law will remove the cloud
upon and give good title to many
hundreds of settlers in Colorado and
many thousands throughout the west.
In many cases the failure of the de-
partment to grant title to the lands
has seriously interfered with the
development of various sections OF
Colorado, because of the inability of
the settlers to secure loans ON their
property-not having clean title
therefor.
There were many cases in this
county and the news from Washing
ton will be received with much re-
ioicing in many sections of the stae.
Congressman Taylor has been trying
for many months to secure the pas
sage of this bill and his final sue
cess means much in the development
oil western Colorado
