EAT LESS MEAT
# BACK HURTS
Take glass Of Salts to flush Kidneys
if Bladder bothers you Drink
lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
luces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
Kidneys they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts OF
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
,bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful efervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
-wemen take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
voiding serious kidney disease.

FRECKLES
Don't Hide Them With q Veil :
Remove Them With The Othinc
Prescription.

AASSSAAptAOAs
This prescription for the removal
of freckles was written by a PROM
inent physician and is usually SO
successful in removing freckles and
giving clear, beautiful complexion
that it is sold by druggists under
guarantee to refund the money if it
fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of othine and re-
move them. Even the first few ap-
plications should show a wonderful
improvement, some of the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this
that is sold on the money-back guar
'antee.

A Mess Was Made of If

Our experience with direct legislation has taught us that men learned in the law have a place in the earthly scheme. Our friends the Arizona Fedora ton of Labor took the lead in direct awinalng, and, to say nothing of the unwisdom many of the measures they proposed. they appear have made a sad botch of it. One of their bills-and lawyer and many who not lawyers could have told them that-faed in the federal court
 Another which is interference with d natural right of citzens-the anti blacklist billis fore doomed to failure. And now the underpinning the keystone whatever you please to call it. is being jared out of place
 To clinch their legislation, they initiated and secured the adoption of constitutional amendment to prevent any interference with their legislation. Carelessness fatal, the amendment was so prepared that direct legislation ever enacted in Arizona none that is likely to be enacted, will come under it's protection They failed to distinguish between the qualified eecor' and the voter" and these, in the language of Hon. Miles Grogan may be two mighty different things"
 What labor friends have learned, all of us must learn if direct legislation is to be made suc- cess Natural slnartness enables us to malse laws that will stand the test. There must be somebody body to tell whether our pro- posed laws will become actual and effective lews-a legislative reference bureau, instance as have previously suggested.

Money for the Schools

The general sentiment in Arizona now in favor Of economy in the management of state affairs, in favor of holding down appropriations for the public institutions, is not inconsistent with the statement Of Dr. KleinSmid of the University of Arizona yesterday inadequate provision for schools of much of the money that is pro vided. There should be- of course, proper equipment everything necessary facilitate the work of the schools the university the normal schools and the public schools.
 There may be who capable of judging of the needs of the schools. Without know ing whether not the money spent in the past has been wisely expended, they demand that much less money shall be spent in the future Because there has been palpable waste of money in de- rartments of the government to such such persons there should be a horizontal retrenchment in all branches of the government This is blind and wasteful economy
 Those who are wiser wish to determine wnere waste has actually occurred and stop it. and to handicap any department by withholding from it such funds it may actually need, whether less than it expended last year
 In the past the heads of the university and the normal schools have sought legislatures all they could possibly obtain and though they have seldom obtained quite all they asked for they have generally been beraly treated the legislatures sell dom having asecrtaned whether they should have lad less We believe that these institutions lave generally made good money they have obtained.
 But must admit that the provision the public schools has been generously and thought lessly made. No provision has been made for the certainty of it's most useful expenditure that the greatest good could be bought with every dollar That IS one of the things which believe the leg lslture will take into consideration and upon even If it has to revise the entire system the distribution of the school fund

The Bigger Issue

As to the. charges which have been lodged a.ainst City Manager Parish, know nothing more tban appears upon the of them But this We do know that so far they backed by only three men who enjoyed appointments under the city nan aaer and were discharged by him for reason or another It may therefore, be presumed that there WAS selfish motive the part of these affiants The misconduct of the city manager to which they have made affidavit, could not have occurred since t.,e severance their relations with the city gov e1nment. They have testified concerning mat ters which they cognizant as city employees. Why therefore their silence so long concerning matters in which al! citizens must be interested?
 We would say to readers that it is not really the city manager who is under fire. It is the com mission manager system that is the object of at tack which is composed of three lines of offense' The first the sefshy interested persons and their friends. Back of them are the smaller politicians democratic and republican, and m the rear is the masked battery. those who would restore the old older things with it's opportunity for special priv iiege and all those evils which tried to break away
 The charges against the city manager have been precipitated by very trivial matter the removal of an official something in which citizen fifty feels the slightest concern But they would have come anyhow. Some members of the commits sion long resented the city managers conduct of the government according the prescriptions of the charter which holds him entirely responsible for the management of municipal affairs It has been the aim of many to put the patronage into the hands of the commission, and in such it might well be in the hands of city council without that defi- mite responsibility which the commission manage. form places upon the city manager.
 A big issue has been raised and it turns out, will be determined whether have a business-like government or a government by politicians and their pets We believe that the thinking. quiet people will outnumber the noisy, active. self interested people and will sustain the city manager
 We cannot and do not endorse every act of the city manager but this know: that his blamelcss life of thirty years Phoenix must count strongly against these charges. It is known that he is d of ability, unirnpeachable integrity and courage He has been the tool of any man. clique or party.

The American Note to Great Britain

Two articles of special interest the Amer ican note Great Britain, with resect to its in reference with American commerce, appear in the February Century. One is by Roland Greene Usher, professor of history at Harvard, and the other is by W. Morgan Shuster who, by the way, has article in the number on Peace and Dis armament
 Though both MT. Usher and Mir. Sinister are anti German they treat the subject under discus sion quite differently. MT Usher, though a nativ. larnercan, educated for the part in Eng land and France. His sympathy with allies is, therefore the pronounced and he unquai- fiedly defends the British position. which he says has been established by the unquestioning acques- cence of the world through three centuries Yet he admits that in 1908 British insistence upon it's right to do what is doing now and against which the American note protests that brought about our second with Great Britain.
 Mr. Usher accuses the American government of resortng technicalities raising objection to the seizure of American cargoes destined for neutral countries and. insisting that Great Britain must be armed with proof before seizure trial in prize courts that such countries not the ultimate des- tinations. He also says, and in that there must be insult to the president that his of pro- test uttered in response the German and Irish sentiment in this country strong enough to determine the result in many a congressional dis trict. if not in the nation itself in a presidential year.
