The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out. they weaken from over work, become sluggish; the eliminat- i've tissues clog and the result is kid ney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health.
 When your kidneys feel like Jumps of lead, your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a table spoonful in glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralise the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation. thus ending bladder disorders.

A Valuable Suggestion
Important to Everyone

It is now conceded by physicians that the kidneys should have more attention as they control the other or. gans to a remarkable degree and do a tremendous amount of work in re moving the pOisons and waste matter from the system by Altering the blood.
 During the winter months especial ly. when we live an indoor life, the kidneys should receive some assist ance when needed, as we take less exercise. drink less water ane often eat more rich heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than Nature intended. Evidence of kidney trouble such as lame back annoying bladder troubles, smartine or burnig, brick-dust or sediment sallow complexion, rheumatism, may be weak or irregular heart action warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more SC rious trouble.
 Many physicians claim that ar herbal medicine containing no min erals or opiates has the most healing influence. An ideal herbal com pound that has had most remarkable success as a kidney and bladder rem edy is Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root

METCALF BANK IN

 si5,0oo FINE

PHOENIX. March 26.-Who is the State Bank of Metcalf?"
 j. c. Callaghan. who Is state audit. or and bank comptroller, doesn't know, neither does his assistant J. B. Ormond. Neither does Bank Examiner J. J. Gillen.
 About all they know about it is that the aforesaid State Bank of Metcalf owes the state something like s15,000 in fines, for it has been doing busi- ness without license since october 24, 1913. The penalty for doing busi- ness without the authority of the bank comptroller is Sl0O a day.
 Two or three days ago a Phoenix bank received some checks on the State Bank of Metcalf They were re ferred to Callaghan's office and it was found that there was no record of any such institution.
 Immediately Callaghan wired to the bank. asking when 1t received its charter and when it commenced doing business The reply was that the charter was secured last August and that business was commenced Octo Der 2i
 IL was found that articles of incor poration for the bank had been filed with the corporation commission. The organizers no doubt thought that was sufficient authority for them to pro ceed to do banking business.
 At any rate Callaghan wired 10 the bank that it's doors must be closed al once. he also drew attention to tha' hundred dollars day penalty pro yided by law.

by the faculty Of each institution to the
senior having shown the greatest pro-
ficiency in scholarship and athletics. The
faculty will be the judge Of the students
qualifications for these medals, which
probably will become available in 1916.
The two-sport rule met on overwhelm-

When the United States Golf associa-

of American golfers who at the time were

statement as absurd, pointing to the fact
that they had entered these golfers In the
British amateur championships and had
certified as to their amateur standing.
1t was reported that the American golf
ers abroad were incensed over the action
of the United States Golf association,
but these golfers later denied that they
had taken any. such attitude. and they
