Accident Prevention Methods Which

OF passing interest. 1t may be noted
that seven states in the United States
and four provinces in Canada have
enacted laws authorizing municipa1i-
ties of 10000 population or more to
establish city plan boards or commits
sions; that twenty-five cities In the
United States have organizations for
the promotion OF city planning; that
thirty-four cities OF the United States
have city plans developed in lesser or
greater degree; that nine cities In the
United States have authorized art
commissions; that twenty-nine citiesl
and towns in the United States and
six cities in Canada have authorized
city planning commissions. These
statistics are compiled from a recent
report OF Flavel Shurtleff, secretary Of
the National Conference on City Plan

BIG EATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE.
Take afglass OF. Salts before breakfast
If your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you.

. y i .
The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
becansewe 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 overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminatiye tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like humps 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 phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast for few days
and your Kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the acid
OF grapes and lemon juice, combined with
hthia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer is a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, makes delightful effervescent
ithia-water beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
. mistake by having q good kidney aush-
ing any tins.

AfSuccessful Conference.

With this evenings session the
twenty-third Conference Of Charities
and Correction will close, after one
of the most enthusiastic and success
full meetings ever held. The spirit
manifested Throughout the entire
conference has been Of desire to
extend and increase the range of
charity, and still more correction.
Every delegate has been optimistic
over the accomplishments of this and
the benefits to be derived from the
meetings Of the future. Special i'm
portance has been given to the ques-
ton of improving the condition Of the
poor, and to best serve the humane
and economic interests of society.
But as c. e. Vasaly, president of
the conference, says: 'There is the
danger that in our haste, to correct
conditions we may rely too much on
legislation. "A few sentences in the
statute book does not lessen the re-
sponsibiity of the individual citizen
to the betterment of and advance
ment of our social plight
The conference is sure to bring
needed results and it's programs have
been such that those who have been
able to attend any of them are in
deed fortunate.
Bemidji isuproud of having been
the seat of the twenty-third confer
ence, proud of the people that have
taken part lin it. and proud aof the
stand that. is. placing Minnesota in
the front rank in the great work
that called for the formation, of the
Charities and Correction.

Honest With the, Indians.

In less than two years service as
Commissioner of Indian Affairs Cato
Sells, whose long residence in Iowa
gives the state claim upon him, has
won a nationwide recognition for
himself, and secured for the govern
ment at Washington almost for the
first time the regard of it's Indian
wards.
Mr.. Sells has been able to do this
by resorting to the very simple ex-
pedient of being honest with the In
dians, and doing for them just what
the government has said it would do
Strange as it may seem, this is the
first time Commissioner of Indian
Affairs or a national administration
has found it worth while to be as
prompt in fulfilling an obligation as
in entering upon one, says the Des
Moines Leader.
The French, when they sold Louis
lana Territory, left the American
purchasers legacy which has caus-
ed no end of embarrassing nt-the In
dian as Independent nations to be
dealt with by formal treaty. The
American soon accustomed himself
to the forms, but he took what he
wanted. The Indian, who had great
respect for forms, never could under
stand American duplicity. To him
the American always spoke with
forked tongue. ..,..
The treaties with the Indians have
been gathered and published in sin
gle volume. It may be said with
confidence that leaving out the
merely formal notifications of exist
ing friendly relations there is not
one treaty that was negotiated in
good faith by the United States.
What Germany has done in Belgium
would be merely incidental If COM
pared with what this country has
done in violation of formal treaty
rights on every foot of Indian ground
Mr.. Sells is to be congratulated
on discovering that honesty is the
best policy, even in dealing with an
Indian. The acclaim he is winning
is the measure of the essentially heal
thy tone of American public morals.

cARRANzA'S TRAP.

General Carranza's refusal to al
low the mixed commission TO view
the body of Benton. the British sub
ject. over whose killing there has
been so much controversy. was a
smooth play for a recognition OF the
belligerent rights of the Constitu.
tionalists. The first trap was for the
government OF Great Britain. and the
second was intended TO force ~recogni-
ton from the United States by impIi-
cation. All OF which goes to show
that Carranza has a much more per
spicuous mind that his subordinate.

the medical examination OF the body
