reason, special interests desiring to
defeat the bill have become partic-

1t can be stated with certainty
that six members of the House Dis

Johnson of Kentucky, Henry George,

Florida, Joseph B. Thompson Of Ok

Pennsylvania, and Robert Crosser of
Ohio.
The men who hold the fate of the
bill in their hands and who have not
committed themselves on it are
Wyatt Aiken of South Carolina, Will

from the home folks intimating to
these gentlemen that the writers are
interested in the votes on this bill

URIC ACID IN MEAT
 CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take glass Of Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder bothers
 YOu-Drink More Water.

If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted forms uric acid which almost par alyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They be- come sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kid ney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your sto- mach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheu- matic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night
 To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four ounces of lad Salts from any phar- macy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will chen 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 and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to ncutralize the acids in urine, so if no longer irritates thus ending blad- der weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive: cannot in jure, and makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia water drink.

THREE YOUNG GIRLS
 CRUSHED BY TRAIN
Two of Them Instantly Killed on Long Island Railroad While Walk
 ing Home From Work.

New York, Nov. 1S.-Three young girls were run down by train last evening as they walked arm in arm toward their homes along that part of the Long Island Railroad in the Laurel Hill section of Long Island City, to which a succession of trage- dies has given the name of dead mans curve" Two of the girls were instantly killed and their companion terribly mutilated, lies unconscious at St. Johns Hospital, with little hope of her recovery.
 The dead girls were Millicent Bran igan, seventeen years old. of 30 Van Dam street, Greenpoint and Fannie Bergstrom, sixteen years old, of 332 Nassau street, Greenpoint Their com panion, also a Greenpoint girl, was Mabel Rankin, who lived at 77 Driggs avenue. They had long been chums. They left school together last June. They were all employed in the same department by the National Enamel ling and Stamping company at it's plant on Newton Creek, Laurel Hill.
 They left their work at 5:30 o'clock and were making their way eastward along the westbound track of the Montauk division. The wind was blowing in their faces. Miss Berg strom was between the other two. They were about 300 yards east of Penny bridge when a fast freight bore down upon them. The train did not stop Engineer George Waters said afterward that he did not even see the girls as he swept around the long curve.
 The bodies of the two girls were taken to Wards morgue in Long 1S- land City They were identified there at g o'clock last night by James King, a p-brother of Miss Branigan.
 Miss Rankin was taken to St. Johns Hosnital. Her skull is fractured, her right hip broken and she IS suffering from internal injuries. The physi- cians say she is not likely to live.

FOREST NOTES

Six thousand bushels of lodgepole
pine seed are being collected this fall
on the Arapaho national forest, Colo
RADIO, for use in reforestation work
next spring.
The Philippine bereau of forestry
has recently invited bids for the cut
ting of nearly 800 900 acres of choice
timber on the public forests on the
island of Luzon.
Officers of the Okanogan national
forest in the state of Washington are
for night use in reporting forest fires
from lookout peaks.
1t is said that the first sawmill in
the United States was at jamestown,
from which sawed boards were export
ed in June, 1907. A water-power saw
mill was in use in 1925 near the pres
ent site of Richmond.
California yew, which grows on the
national forests of that state, is find
ing some use in present day archery
practice. Its qualities closely resem-
BILE those of the old-world yew which
made the English long-bow famous
in mediaeval times.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylva-
MIA has decided that the amount OF
damage collectable on growing timber
set on fire through negligence is not
only the value of the wood destroyed
but also the injury to the property as
a whole through the destruction of
the young growth.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO

There are many times when one
man questions another's action ard
motives. Men act differently under
different circumstances. The question
is what would you do right now if
you had severe cold? Could you
do better than to take Chamberlain
Cough Remedy? 1t is highly rec
commended by people who have used
it for years and know its value. Mrs
O. +. Sargent, Peru, Ind, says

to economic in every direction-and
in the frantic endcavor to keep their
heads above water they have been
forced to discontinue hundreds of
trains, to cut the forces working in
their myriad railroad shops and thus
dispense with many thousands of
former employees, In like manner,
cutting down the purchases of steel,
lumber, coal, new cars and locomotives
has likewise affected the payrolls of
these industries-and hence the army
Of unemployed which for some years
has been haunting every city in the
land.
The Farmer vitality Concerned
That the farmer has very vital
and personal interest in this situa-
ton should be apparent at glance.
When the millions of laboring men in
the United States are proiitably en-
ployed and when all our great indus
trial enterprises are running full shift,
IL means that he will have larger
demand and receive higher price
for the things he produces on his
fa"m-for his corn, wheat, pork, beef
mutton, cotton, wool and other farm
products. In other words, so inter-
dependent have we become, and so
closely allied are the interests of the
farmer, the merchant, the manufac-
turcr, the laborer and every other
great national industry that the pros
pcrty Of one has become the prosper
ity Of all When times are good, the
railroads spend around $500,000,000
year for betterments, extensions
and new lines-and this expenditure
always opens up market for thou
sands Of mules used in heavy con-
struction work.
Another fact which the average
man doesn't take into consideration
is the effect of drouths and crop fail
ures on the railroads. While admit
ting offhand that these things hurt
the farmer, merchant and manufactur-
er he forgets that when the farmer
doesn't produce big crops and ship
lots Of live stock these things cut II
big hole in the receipts of the trans
portation mpanies-forcing them to
run trains that are only half loaded
while thousands Of empty box cars
stand idle on the side tracks. During
the last four years Missouri and the
Corn Belt generally has had three Sc
we're drouths and the railroads po-
ssessed no magic power which enab-
led them to escape their full share of
the resulting consequences. They
bear no charmed life which places
them above the ineXorable law Of
cause and ecect-no necromancer' S
art which changes dross into gold or
Il deficit into a surplus. Well might
they cxclaim with Shylock in his pa
thetic defense Of the Jew, "If you
prick us, do we not bleed? If you
tickle us, do we not laugh? If you
poison us, do we not die ?" Adv,

Why Men are Idle

WY Nf'h ~ hH'N
Every man who reads the newspa-
pers knows that our large cities have
been crowded with idle men for Il
number of years. This has not been
due so much to politics but rather
that we have been passing through
one of the most marked business de-
pressions in the history of the coun-
try--a period of reimbursement in the
industrial world in which a cropping
after sound economic policies, bad
crops, etc, have all played their part.
That much of the troubled situation
in the labor world, however, has been
due to the fact that the railroads
have been and are now facing the
most critical period in their history
is so true that extended argument is
supcrfuous. Struggling against an
ever-increasiag cost Of labor, opor-
alton and supplies and an ever DE-
furnishing net income they have had
