When the war broke out some Of the
trades unions soon exhausted their re-
sources. Not only were they unable to
cope with the unusual situation, but 1t
was to be feared that these trades
unions as well as others would be in
capacitated from continuing their un-
employment insurance after the close
Of the war. Therefore, I caused a new
government measure to be adopted
which provides that as soon as the
funds Of any trades union fall to rs

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lots OF water and stop eating
meat for while If your Bladder
troubles you.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, says well-knoWn
authority. Meat forms uric acid
which overworks the kidneys in their
effort to filter it from the blood and
they become sort Of paralyzed and log
gy. When your kidneys get sluggist
and clog you must relieve them, like
you relieve your bowels; removing all
the body's urinous waste, else you
have backache, sick headache, dizzy
spells; your stomach sours tongue is
coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine is cloudy full of sediment, chan
nels often get sore, water scalds and
you are obliged to seek relief two or
three times during the night
Either consult a good, reliable phy.
stefan at once or get from your phar-
mac1st about four ounces of Jad Salts:
take tablespoonful in glass If
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, CON-
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids In the urine so it no longer irri-
tates. thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, can
not injure, and makes a delightful, ef-
fervescent lithia-water drink.

however, with Europe in confusion, trip
through the United States has become an una
voidable alternative to those who wish to travel
extensively.
There is no gainsaying the observation that
no one really can understand section of the
United States until he has seen it and spent time
studying it. The advantage of proper under
standing of the United States is of paramount
Importance to our national legislators, and yet it
is a sad commentary that many of them have
not been west of the Mississippi river, and are
ignorant of the needs of tremendous area for
which they enact laws.
Legislators and voters would be guided by
more wisdom if they knew their own country
from first hand observation. They would be in a
position to act with intelligence, especially in an
age in which the economical problems are so
closely interviewer with political questions.
But passing this phase of the question, and
looking at the problem from the standpoint of a
tourist and nature lover who is interested in
scenic grandeur and display, what vistas of beau
ty are unfolded in the mountain ranges and des-
erts of the West, among the lakes of the North,
and the broad stretches of the South.

year, with the advantageous transportation
facilities offered by the Railroads, will do much

One Form of Patriotism

Patriotism is taught in the schools, its vir-
tues explained, its necessity driven home with
force. Patriotism and loyalty to country can be
shown in more ways than one. just now Ameri-
cans have an opportunity of exemplifying it in a
high degree. That is, See America First. Thous-
ands of Americans in former years left millions
of dollars in Europe to contribute materially to
the wealth of the nations visited by tourists.
Travel is one of the best forms of recreation
and amusement. Besides this it has a cultural
value of no mean Importance. Perhaps this &C
counts for the thousands who annually preferred
a tour in Europe where there are many places of
historical Importance to trip through the

leans that citizens See America First, the appeal

HOW TO USE SERVICE

Schools have been furnished with
the new Postal Information pamph'
let's which the government has sent to
the post office with instructions to
Superintendent of Mails Handley that
he distribute them generally.
The pamphlet contains every bit OF
information about mail matter that
could be wanted, from the proper meth
cd OF addressing envelopes to the fact
that the delivery Of mail addressed to
minor is subject to the orders of the
parent or guardian upon which the
minor is dependent.
The pamphlet can be obtained at

ply and the factories and other large
patrons of the postal service, will be
given first opportunity to get the

While there is no order regarding
the use of the pamphlets in schools.

the hope that school teachers will en-
ploy some method of disseminating
the information contained in the
guides. The guides are free.

dren now homeless and destitute OF
food and raiment, and the many line
mansions converted into hospitals, and
all the real suffering in those hos
pitfalls, and the means and cries and

should be reminded of what that good
peace-loving Mr.. Mckinley said when
war was about to be declared during
his administration, the Spanlsh-Amer-
lean war: II do not care for the prop
erty that will be destroyed, nor the
money that will be expended If this
unhappy war should come, but the
thought of human suffering that must
enter many households almost over
whelms me"
And of course we do not know what
this dreadful war now going on in Eu-
rope will result in for the American
people, If something is not done real
soon, but one thing we do know, and
that is every time an American citl-
zen, whether born under the Stars
and Stripes of the American flag, or
whether the breath of life was first
breathed under some foreign DONNA
ton, should keep alive his love for
the grand and glorious old America.

what it may want tomorrow? Is there
