bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in a glass q water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This

Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;

Rexford Holmes Denounces
Proposed Formation Of

STATEMENT Is ISSUED
Peace Advocate Points to Europes
War As Result Of Military
Propaganda.
STATEMENT IS ISSUED

War Is on at George Washington Uni
versity between the ultra-peace and pre-
paredness factions.
An organized movement has been
launched to combat the formation at
the Institution Of a coast artillery COM
pany as a branch Of the District Ma
tional Guard. At the head of the party
of peace advocates Is Rexford l. Holmes,
an alumnus of the university. who an
nounces the night will be carried to the
board of trustees In an endesvor TO pre-
vent the fruition OF the militaristic
plans.
The formation of the coast artillery
company was authorized last spring BY
the board of trustees. and the work OF
organization now Is well under way.
more than forty students and graduates
already having enlisted tentatively.
william Bruce King. prominent local at
torney. who Is acting chairman Of the
military committee of the board of trus-
tees. recently sent out a circular letter
In the interest OF obtaining recruits The
letter ended with the sentence:
1T Is hoped that the members of the
company will so utilize their instruction
that in case OF war a large proportion
Of its members will be qualified to re-
ceive commissions as officers in active
service
holmes sends Reply.
In response 10 the circular letter. Mr..
Holmes has sent this reply to the MILL
tary committee:
IF you will send me a circular pro-
posing to establish a chair in the
George Washington University to
teach young men how to preserve the
peaceful traditions OF our nation,
based upon the ideals OF that greatest
of teachers, the Prince of Peace. I
should be most enthusiastic in helping
in some humble way to further such
a movement and would be glad to
contribute, to the extent of my means
for the support of such a depart
ment
We recently have seen a number
of illustrations of what can be ac-
complished by feeding young minds.
and especially the student bodies
upon military propaganda calculated
to cause the youth Of the nation to
regard force as necessary IL they
would spreserve the integrity of their
native land This idea has worked
outg as might have been expected. in
more than one European government.
so that as a result OF this constant
training of young minds along mill
tary lines. We have today an orgy of
blood. the wrecking of nations. and
the engendering of hatreds that will
endure for centuries to come.
who can say but that had the stu
dents and the youth of the nations
now at war been trained to look to
the methods OF Cancellation and arbi-
tration. rather than to the arts of
war. for a solution of world prob
lens. the present European conflicts
might have been avoided? Many of
the best thinkers of the age believe
that such would have been the case"

SHUN "SUN-RIPENED"
FRUIT, SAYS BULLETIN
Health Department Says Use of Such
Products Causes Disturbances
of Digestive System.

The practice OF picking fruit imma-
turely and exposing it to the sun to ripen
vas denounced by the health department
yesterday in its weekly bulletin. The de-
partment urges retail dealers to insist
upon a written guarantee that the fruit
they purchase has ripened on the trees.
Analysis of such fruit shows an ex-
cessive amount OF acid and an amount
Of sugar much below the normal for
fruit ripened on the trees" reads the
bulletin. 1T has been shown that the
same oranges remaining on the trees in
crease markedly in sugar and decrease in
acid.
There is evidence to show that the
consumption of such immature oranges,
especially by children. is apt to be at
tended by serious disturbances Of the d.
gestive system. As orange juice forms
an important article of diet for babies
and young children, II is essential that
the fruit be ripened on the trees"

FAMOUS ACTRESS SAYS COFFEE HARMS
 COMPLEXION
Declares Coffee Habit Grows on One, Duiis tho Mind. and Weakens
 the Muscles

People who desire to retain youth full looks and a clear, healthy skin, may be surr''ised to learn that so ern- ipent an ar ority on beauty as Lilli- an Russel declares, in a recent issue of the Chicago Herald, that both coffee and tea have a harmful effect on the complexion. The most youthful skin can be made dry and sallow by the over indulgence of tea or coffee.
 Tt always depresses me when hear a woman say, I must have a cup of coffee the first thing in the morning, and generally sip it in bed" She would be shocked if she heard someone else say that they must have a cocktail before they could begin the day.
 T heard a most beautiful old woman say, Do you think I would dry up my blood and ruin my skin by drink ing tear
 'The coffee habit grows on one, and when coffee is used as a stimulant there is a reaction, which means de- pression and causes over indulgence or the use Of stronger stimulants. In the continued use. stirnulants dull the mind and weaken the muscles"
 NOTE.--lt is a satisfaction to know that in the pure food drink, Instant Postum, increasing thousands are find- ing a delightful morning beverages beverage free from drugs or any harmful substance, and free from eof- fees ills. but rich in those food ele- ments supplied by Nature for building good blood and strong, healthy bodies.
