Inventors of Gunpowder Apparently Had No Idea of It's De-
 structive Qualities.

That gunpowder was we'll known for century or so before 1t was used in guns appears probable from investiga- tions in connection with celebration at Oxford of the anniversary of the birth of Roger Bacon, the Literary Di- gest states. Bacon's claims to the in- vention of gunpowder are often pressed by English writers in opposition to those of Berthold Schwartz. who is generally said to have invented it about 1344-a century after Baeon's time. It seems certain from the lat ter's writings that he was familiar with the composition, not as it's inven- tor, but because of it's use in various countries of the world. Apparently, however, 1t was regarded merely as a firework, a means of producing sud- den and brilliant flame, and it's users were far from suspecting that in confined space the expansive power of it's gases could be put to use in hurling projectiles. Says an editorial writer in the Revue des Questions Scientifique: The text that we have studied allows no further doubt that Bacon knew of gunpowder On page 213, under the title Of the Power of the Lombards, he restates what he has already said in his Opus Majus of the explosive properties of this powder, but he also informs us that it is known in various parts Of the world and that it is composed of saltpeter, sulphur and willow char coal

MEAT CLOGS KIDNEYS
 THEN YOUR BACK HURTS,
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Kid. neys If Bladder Bothers You
 Drink Lots of Water.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush. ing the kidneys occasionally, says a. well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheu- matism, headaches, liver trouble, Ter vousness. dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at- tended by sensation of sealding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of lad Salts from any pharmacy; take. a tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This fa- nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irrita- tion, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes delightful efferves. cent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood puee, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.-Adv

 Was he testing her? Was he play ing a part of his own to make certain that she was not playing one? She looked up swiftly for answer. There was no gainsaying what she saw in his eyes. It was beating into hers with the power of an overwhelming masculine passion and maturity of intellect as his egoism admitted com rade to it's throne. Such is ever the way of a man in the forties when the clock strikes for him. But who could know better the craft of courtship than one of Westerling's experience? He was fighting for victory; to gratify a desire.
 q did not expect this-I-" the words escaped unanimously and chok- ingly.
 He was bending so close to her that she felt his breath on her cheek burn ing hot, and she was siekeningly con- scioes that he was looking her over in that point-b -by-point manner which she had felt across the tea-table at the hotel. This horrible thing in his glance she had sometimes seen in strangers on her travels, and it had made her think that she was wise. to carry a little revolver She wanted to strike him.
 Confess! Contest" called all her Eplf f-rQGnnof to your abasement!"
 Confession, after the Browns have given up Bordir! Confession that makes Lanny, not Westerlng, your dupei" came the reply, which might have been telegraphed into her mind from the high, white forehead of Par tow bending over his maps. "Confes- sion, betraying the cause of the right against the wrong; the three to the conquering five! No! You are in the thing. You may not retreat now"
 For a few seconds only the duel of argument thundered in her temples seconds in which her lips were part ed and quivering and her eyes dilated with an agitation which the man at her side could interpret as he pleased. A prompting deyil-a devil reused by that thing in his eyes-urging finesse in double-dealing which only devils understand, made her lips hyp. notieally turn in smile, her eyes soften, and sent her hand out to Wes. terling in trancelike gesture. For an instant it rested on his arm with tell ing pressure, though she felt it burn with shame at the point of contact.
 We must not think of that now" she said. We must think of nothing personal; of nothing but your work until your work is donel"
 The prompting devil had not permit ted a false note in her voice. Her very pallor, in fxity of idea, served her purpose. Westerling drew a deep breath that seemed to expand his whole being with greater appreciation of her Yet that harried hunger, the hunger of beast. was still in his glance.

Doing That, the Voter Will Be Brought to a Comprehension of
 His Full Duty.
CTO BE CONTINUED

We, the people, need to have eyes of imagination in order that we may be good citizens. A voter with suf- ficient ability to see the rest of man. kind and the generations yet unborn will sacrifice his convenience, and even much more, to go to the polls.
 The better we come to know man kind-the actual character and lives of people whom perhaps we have never seen or never will see-the stronger grows our altruism, which is normal quality of human nature. The literature of the magazines is rendering an invaluable service. It is forwarding gradual reconcilia- tion of classes and races by it's vivid portrayal of what people really are. It is bringing our conception of "the rest of humanity" nearer to the hu- man reality.
 The psychology that tells us clear ly how we are separated by time, rather than space, from those who will be affected by our acts. is i'm portant in the development of civic lIidSludllOH. Y UT every lOu Ol COdl that We mine, for every beautiful hill side that we rob of it's forests, for every law put on the statute books by the legislators that We elect, for every vote that is cast at the polls. we are answerable to future genera tions.
 Without imagination it is impossible to comprehend our civic responsibili- Evening Ledger.

He asked some categorical questions almost per l functorily, and the answer to each was, Ready" with, in some instances, 1 a qualification-the qualification made l by regimental and brigade command CTS that, though they could take the l position in front of them, the cost would be heavy Yes, all were willing and ready for the first general assault of the war, but they wanted to state the costs as matter of professional self-defense
 Westerling could pose when it served his purpose Now he rose and, going to one of the wall maps, indi- eated a point with his forefinger.
 "If we get that We have the most vital position, haven't we2"
 Some uttered word of assent; some only nodded. A glance or two of curiosity was exchanged. Why should the chief of staff ask so ele- mentary question? Westerling was not unconscious of the glances or of their meaning They gave dramatic value to his next remark.
 We are going to mass for our main attack in front at Bordir!"
 But" exclaimed four or five off cers at once, that is the heart of the position That is-''
 T believe it is weak-that it will fall and tonight"
 You have information, then. infor- -mation that l have not?" asked Bou- ehard
 No more than you" replied Wester- ling. Not as much if you have any thing new"
 "Nothing!" admitted Bouehard wryly He lowered his head under Wester- lings penetrating look in the con seionsness of failure
 T am going on a conviction-on putting two and two together!" Wes- terling announced. T am going on my experience as a soldier, as a chief of staff. If l am wrong, take the re- sponsibility. If I am right, Bordir will be ours before morning. It is settled!"
 If you are right, then exclaimed Turcas--s.well, then it's genius or" He did not finish the sentence. He had been about to say coincidence; while Westerling knew that if he were right all the rising skepticism in cer- tain quarters, owing to the delay in his program, would be silenced His prestige would be unassailable

Chocolates in Fashion.

Matinee girls make and break fash ions in confectionery. and just now there is a deadly set toward chocolates of all kinds. Time was when the chocolate cream was every girls ideal of luscious delight. Then came days when bonbons ruled and when the clever girl behind the candy counter slipped only a small proportion of chocolates into a box of assorted sweets. But chocolate has come to it's own again. Perhaps this is why Georgie Conan introduced a touching scene in his play, Hello, Broadway" You see, the girl he is in love with makes an awful discovery. And oh, how she raves when the secret comes out She finally throws Georgie over because he confesses he's a chocolate fiend. "Oh, double O." she again raves. "Ain't it awful, and to think I always thought he was perfect gen tleman."

THE DOCTORS WIFE Agrees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: "In the prae- tice of my profession l have found so many points in favor of Grape-Nuts food that l unhesitatingly recommend it to all my patients.
 It is delicate and pleasing to the palate Gan essential in food for the sick and can be adapted to all ages, being softened with milk or cream for babies or the aged when deficiency of teeth renders mastication impossible For fever patients or those on liquid diet find Grape-Nuts and albumen water very nourishing and refreshing.
 This recipe is my own idea and is made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for an hour. strain and serve with the beaten white of an egg and a spoonful of fruit juice for favouring. This af- lords a great deal of nourishment that even the weakest stomach can assimi. late without any distress.
 My husband is q physician and he nses GrapeNuts himself and orders it many times for his patients.
 Personally regard a dish of Grape Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the ideal breakfast for anyone-well or sick"
 In stomach trouble, nervous prostra. tion, etc, 10-day trial of Grape-Nuts will usually work wonders toward nourishing and rebuilding and in this way end the trouble. Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.

It is cruel to force nauseating, harsh physic into a
 sick child.

Look back at your childhood days Remember the dose mother insisted on castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them.
 With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physie simply don't realize what they do. The childrens revolt is well-found- ed. Their tender little "insides" are injured by them.
 If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs It's action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that 1t never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweet en the stomach, and that teaspoonful given today saves a sick child tomor- row
