rheumatic twinges. The urine Is clouded,
full of sediment, channels often get
sore, water scalds, and You are Obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night
Either consult a good. reliable physi-
clan at once. or get from your Dharma-
>cist about four ounces of Jad salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of water

tions to clean and stimulate sluggish
kidneys, also to neutralize acids IN the

HITCHCOCK ASKS
FOR BANKING DATA
Suggests Relocation Of Regional
Branches by Federal Re-
serve Board.

Further sharp protest AGAINST the
action of the organization committee
of the Federal reserve banking system
in locating reserve cities and fixing
boundaries of districts was heard in the
Senate today.
Senator oliver of Pennsylvania caused
amusement by sending to the desk
resolution which he said he might in
troduce. and which he asked to have
read.
II proyed to be a resolution calling
on the District committee - investi-
gate whether the District needed new
courthouse, and, if it was found to be
needed, whether it should be placed III
Chevy Chase or Tenleytown.
There would be just as much sense
in locating a new courthouse in one
of those regions as there Is in some OF
the proposed Federal reserve districts
and cities" he said.
He protested against Pittsburgh be-
ing place in the Cleveland district.
Senator Hitchcock stirred up the
subject by advocacy of his resolu-
ton calling on the organization COM
mittee for The data in its hands ana
the reasons on which its findings
were barred, and what reasons ulti-
mately led to the shaping of the
districts and selection Of the cities.
Senator Hitchcock said the question
WAS whether the organization COM
mittee violated the letter and spirit
of the instructions Of Congress as
contained in the law.
He believed it had not consulted the
| convenience and course Of business.
In answer to a question of Senator
CIapp whether there was any prospect
of Changing the districts. Senator
Hitchcock said when the Federal Re
serve Board was formed 1t would be
appealed TO, and that was strong rea'
| son for obtaining the data he sought
Prolonged discussion followed. Sena'

STREETS CLEANED

Workmen have been busy removing
the winters dirt from the surface of
the streets. The cutters are being
cleaned out TO allow the surface water
to get away more quickly. The grad
ing of the streets leaves them in a neat
clean looking condition that is APP
preciated by all the jewellers by the
way. After this work is done in the
spring there is not city in the state
that has a more beautiful lot of resi-
dence streets than has Bedding. The
removal Of this annual collection Of
filth is very commendable and the
money spent for this cleaning-up in
the residence section, is money well
expended.

HEALY BOUND OVER
TO CIRCUIT COURT
TRIAL APRIL IS

Attorney for j. j. Healy and also the
sheriff and prosecutor were in the city
Tuesday to complete the hearing in
the Healy case. Healy was bound
over to the Circuit Court. The date
of his trial was set for April 10. Bond
was set at 500. This was furnished
by Rev. FIR. j. NJ. Zindler.
Two things seem to be most import
ant in governing the outcome of the
case. one is the establishing of the
fact whether or not Healy called him
self doctor. advertised himself as such
or used his sign on which the name of
doctor appeared after August 15,
1913, when the new law became effec-
tive. The other whether he is using
the method of treatment commonly
used by the chiropractor without hav-
ing a certificate from the state and
receiving money for his work.

Lamentable is the fact that the
county Of Ionia turned down the good
roads proposition by about 1000 maj
ority. Our own township of Otisco
where probably the worst roads in the
county exist refuted the offer for aid
by vote of rs to 1872.
The good roads proposition is one
about which the farmers and country
people should be vitality interested. II
is an improvement that will benefit
them more than any other class OF
people. Yet, the vote shows that the
cities and incorporated villages of the
county supported the measure in each
case. BY their negative vote the far
mers of the county have refused the
offered help from the city dweller
How they could figure out that it was
good for them to turn the county sys-
tenn down is more than a resident OF
the city can tell. By the expenditure
of only a few hundred dollars in the
township they could secure a mile OF
state road costing two thousand oil
more dollars. Most of this money
would come from the state.
AS IL has been voted the residents OF
the county will continue to pay the
road tax imposed by the state and al
of this money will go into other coun
ties to help build roads there and in
crease the value of the land in Other
counties Does it look like good bust
ness? The full vote in the county II

To neglect a cough or cold is always

that follows may easily be symptom

Treating Earb.Wire Cuts

When barbed wire is used the wires
should be kept taut, not too close to
the ground, and should have a few
cross stays; and the posts should not
be too far apart. This greatly re.
duces the number of cuts. 1t is the
low. slack wires, OF junk heap OF
barbed wire, which causes most of
the trouble. Woven wire at the bot.
tom OF a fence is a big protection.
Some men claim that they made the
price of woven wire the first veal
they used it on grain fields by just
keeping a bunch of hogs and giving
them free run.
In treating wire cuts, first stop the
bleeding by plenty of bandaging. The
next day take some hot water in a
tea kettle, coffee pot or fountain syr.
inge, pour it over the wound, soften
the bandage and clean the wound
with soap. Clip the long hair from
the edges of the wound and apply a
good antiseptic, as tincture OF iodine
and glycerine, equal parts. Use a dry
busting powder such as bOric acid,
camphallum. or other standard make.
Change every few days to iodine. Ii
the wound discharges wipe it out with
clean cotton and put on a fresh dress.
ing, but do not wash it after the first
time unless it becomes very foul. The
average wash basin and sponge adds
infection to a wound.
Get the horse on a clean pasture as
soon as possible and away from a
dark, dirty barn and yard. Very bad
wounds may need bandaging. If so,
use fresh dressing twice a day to be
sure that no discharge collects.-W.
