and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM

flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. 1t also neu-

Seitemsnt In France.
The fafdshipmen came back to. this
country on the Maine. They got a
glimpse of the excitement attendant
on the declaration OF war while in
France. The ships were at Nice, and
war bulletins were posted in the aft
ernoon, Mr.. Belts SAID By evening
all of the reservists were In uniform
ana were marching north. Mr.. Belts
declared that the French were in a
high state of excitement at this time,
and that their dislike of the Germans
was expressed broadcast. The en-
thusiasm OF the Frenchmen knew no
bounds after the declaration Of war
was posted.
The Keokuk midshipman said that
the class had been studying French
and managed to get long very we'll
while in France. The use Of German
in France was dangerous to the user.

From France the middies went to
Gibralter and Morocco. On leaving
Niece Mr.. Belts said the Americans
in that city tried by all means possible
to get out Of the country, because
they wanted to get home after the
battleship left. Mr.. Belts said that
the Americans are not in danger. ex-
cept that their money, unless 1t is
gold. is useless. Checks and travel
ers cheques are useless, gold being
the only money taken.
The ship stopped twentyIfour hours
at Gibralter for coal. The English
allowed the American to stop only
the prescribed length of time. There
was of course no shore liberty for
the midGies, and the channels around
the rock are mined and guarded.
The midshipmen returned to this
country later than they had expected
to but were glad to get back. They
were glad. however, OF the chance to
see some OF the excitement. They saw
some few ships OF the French navy
and some of the torpedo boats and
cruisers OF the English fleet around
Gibralter which had been engaged IN
capturing German merchant marine.
