Uric acid in meat excites the kid

be real sick person shortly At first
you feel dull misery in the kidney
region, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour,
tongue coated and you feel rheumatic
twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces OF Jad Salts; take table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine This IA
nous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them TO normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids il urine,

WHO SUCCEED.
IN WESTERN CANADA
Those Who Exercise Thrift, Prac-
tiCe Due Economy, and Adopt
Reasonable Methods Are
Sure to Prosper.

Those who are interested in devel-
oping the agricultural resources Of
Western Canada in bringing to the
notice of those whom they desire to
take part in this development present
only the facts. There has never been
given the impression that farming in
Western Canada could be carried on
without effort or labor, but it has been
successfully stated that better results
can be secured with less outlay OF
capital, either in money or labor, than
anywhere else on the continent. This
has been proven time and time again.
Hundreds of cases could be cited
where men have taken up farms,
either a homestead, or purchased from
railways or land companies, and with
little capital at the start have &C
quired a competence, have established
good homes for themselves, and pro
vided a sure future. They have COM
Portable homes and all their surround
ings are comfortable, speak of the re-
ward that their thrift has accom-
plished.
Carl Dickan, of Russian Poland lived
in Pittsburgh, Pa, for fourteen years,
and saved up 5000. In 1903 he took
the 5000 with him to Alberta. His own
story is that he bought a quarter Sec
ton, for which he agreed to pay
$1,000. I'm 1904 had thirty acres Of
crop, threshed 900 bushels. In 1909
bought another quarter. now have
one hundred acres under cultivation,
and have never had a crop failure.
Have threshed forty-seven bushels of
wheat per acre, but the average has
been about forty. My oats for the
eleven years that I have been here
averaged forty-seven bushels to the
acre. now have 8 horses, Al head
of cattle, 33 hogs, which consider
worth $4,000. I have a thousand dol
lars worth of farm implements and
my land is worth $4,000. This is all
clear of debt. I have every reason to
consider this a first-class mixed farm
ing, dairying and poultry raising coun-
try, as ] think that it is apparent that
have had some success. The only
help that I had was my oldest boy,
who was 8 years old when ! arrived
in Alberta"
About fifty miles west Of Wetaski-
win there is a partially timbered dis
trict lying between Buck Lake and
Pigeon Lake. All this land is ready
for demonstrating, and judging from a
letter received by q resident there,
this would seem to be an ideal place
for farmer who desired such sur
roundings. This settler lives on the
shore of Buck Lake, his land is willow
brush, which is easy to clear. Some
of the lumber is good saw timber,
and lots of good logs for buildings can
be had, as we'll as rails for fencing.
For wheat growing the soil is excel
lent. Water is easily secured, fishing
is good and plentiful and game is any
thing but scarce. The settlers are
mostly from the United States and

No Fire Marshal.


The bill creating and establishing
the office of state fire marshal prac-
tically was killed in the senate when
it came up for engrossment. Twenty
one amendments were adopted.
A series offered by Senator Morton
transferred the appointing and super
vision of the marshal from the state
superintendent of insurance to the
governor.
Senators Harris, Rodgers, Whit
ledge, Gardner and others declared it
was dangerous to clothe any official
with authority like the measure
sought to confer upon the marshal.
Gardner declared the measure an
effort by the fire insurance COM
panies to harass the public, and Whit
ledge said it was a scheme to have
the state pull chestnuts out of the
fire for the companies.
McClintic and Goodson favored the
bill and the former said it was a move
to reduce the cost of insurance. 1t
would do more, he said, to bring
about a reduction than any other
measure that could be passed.
After the bill had been amended
until there was little of the original
left, it went to the informal calen-
dar from which it has little prospect
of being recalled.

School Funds NAV be cue.

The appropriations of the eleenosyn-
airy and education institutions may be
cut $1,000,OO0 to care for the peniten.
tiary for the coming biennial period.
Representative Floyd Tuggle, chair
mon of the appropriation committee
of the house, has written to the fac
ulties of the educational institutions
and the superintendent of asylums
informing them that cut of 20 per
cent may be made on their budgets,
and he asks them to name the items
where reductions can be made.
The penitentiary problem has be-
come so involved that leaders fear
that the legislature may adjourn be-
fore any satisfactory agreement is
reached. The contracts for the con-
Wet labor expires this year, and some
financial provisions must be made to
maintain the prison until the next
legislature makes its appropriation.

Rail Rates.


The house OF representatives by a
vote of 81 to 81, adopted an amend
ment to a committee amendment to
the public-service bill making it posi-
BILE for the public service commission
to establish a maximum 21sc passen-
ger rate in Missouri.
Efforts were made to delay discus
sion of the measure, but with a desire
to ascertain how the lower branch OF
the assembly felt as to railroad legis-
lation, there was a demand to con-
slider the bill over the protest of Rep
resentative Jacob Bretz, who intro
duced the bill and who wished it
placed on the informal calendar.
Should the legislators acquiesce in
this request, the bill would die with
the adjournment of the assembly, for
it would never again be reached.
There were 40 committee amend
ments pertaining to regulations and
powers of the public service commits
sion, but the vital question, railroad
rates, was amendment No. 49, After
the others had received perfunctory
consideration and were approved, the
piece de resistance of the bill came
up for discussion.
Z Representative Correfl offered a
substitute amendment to the one Of
fered in committee hearings, making
it possible for the public service COM
mission to fix maximum 21z-cent pas
senger rate.

Nepotism Dead.

Representative Settle, one of the
Republican members who introduced
the anti-nepotism bill in the house,
requested that his bill be placed on
the informal calendar after it had
been amended many times when dis
cussed for engrossment in the lower
branch of the assembly. The bill re-
ceived similar treatment in the SEN
ate, and the measure is virtually
dead.
During the discussion Representa-
tive Fulbright brought out the fact
that during the forty-ffth general as
sembly, when the Republicans con-
troAled the house, scores of Repu,
leans had placed their relatives on
the payroll and that the Republicans
at that time never thought of any
nepotism bill. He said that the pres
ent administration had to make de.
{ficiency appropriation of $4,000 to
liquidate unpaid bills on the Hadley
administration.
