If you must have your meat every

uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to expel it
from the blood. They become slug

To neutralize these irritating acids

DECISION TO-DAY
IN BECKER CASE

Albany, N. Y, Feb. 14.-Although
there is no way of ascertaining posi-
lively, it is generally believed that &
decision in the case of Chas. Becker,
the former New York police lieuten-
ant convicted of the murder of Herman
Rosenthal, will be handed down to-
morrow morning by the court of APP
peals. Tomorrow will mark the last
day of the present term, and it was
said when the case was argued in De-
cember that decision probably would
be reached during February.
1t is barely possible that a decision
in the appeals of the four gunner
who were convicted of the same crime
will be handed down along with the
decision of the Becker case.

overcome rheumatism is our own we'll
known Georgia medicine. the famous
blood purifier, S. S. S. Its action is
quite remarkable. Whatever may be
your theory as to the cause of rheu-
matism or kind of rheumatism, just
remember this: S. S. S. has the peculiar
action of soaking through the intes-
tines directly into the blood. In five
minutes it's influence is at work in
every artery, vein and tiny capillary.
Every membrane, every organ of the
body, every emunctory becomes in eff
feet a filter to strain the blood of i'm
purities. The stimulating properties of
S. S. S. compel the skin, liver, bowels,
kidneys, bladder to all work to the
one end of casting out every irritating,
every pain-infiicting atom of poison;
and scatters those peculiar formations
in the nerve centers that cause such
mystifying and often battling rheuma-
tic pains.
If you have drugged yourself until
your stomach is nearly paralyzed, you
will be astonished to find that S. S. s,
gives no sensation but goes right to
work, This is because 1t is a pure
vegetable infusion, is taken naturally
into your blood just as pure air is
inhaled naturally into your lungs.

CANADA ID BAR
 AMERICAN PAPERS
Claim War NeWs 10 Being Colored By German sympathizers To Dis-
 courage the British.

VANCOUVER, B. C., Sept. 1.-The government officials are considering plans to bar many American news papers from Canada on account Of the sensational reports of the British defeats in France, where they are fighting the German forces. Many of the big American newspapers are owned by German sympathizers and are anti-British, publishing only war news favorable to Germans.
 The newspapers of this city, which receive news from every news-gath- ering source in America, declare that the European war news is being in terpreted in the newspaper offices to suit their readers. Certain New York papers recently published a sensa- tional story giving the account of a battle at sea in which the British were reported to have lost nearly their entire fleet in the North Sea. Canadian newspapers received no such report and the British govern ment has since denied the rumor.

SHANGHAI, Sept. 1.-Condhions of disorder in interior China such as did not characterize even in the rev. olutionary period preceding the Man chu overthrow two and half years ago, are reported by foreigners ar irving here from Hankow and other up-country points.
 Through Honan, Hupeh, Shansl, Szechuan and Anhwel provinces brig andage is rampant on such a scale that cities even of 100000 and 3OO,- 900 population are unsafe from at tack. Scores of smaller towns have been sacked. F'rightful massacres have been perpetrated and loot worth millions have been carried of.
 Bodies of troops aggregating 20,- 900 or 25,000 in number are in the field against the outlaws and there have been dozens of skirmishes and A few battles, in whichh the bandits have held their own as often as they have been beaten. No quarter IS shown on either side, the victors ln' variably beheading their prisoners and in some cases tOrturing before killing them.
 Opponents of President Yuan Shl Kai's government are said unques' tionably to be encouraging the ban dits' activities, to be supplying quan. titles of arms and ammunition and to be doing their utmost to weld the numerous bands into single force for another revolution.
