MUSCULAR BACKACKE

The muscles of the back do the heavy work of the body. When they are over- worked or ill nourished they ache and people who are looking for trouble begin to worry about their kidneys.
 Backache may be due to lumbago, which is rheumatism of the muscles of the back, but more backaches are caused by overstrain, overwork and muscle starvation due to thin blood than by any thing else.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills build up the blood and sufferers from backache would do we'll to try this treatment before giv- ing way to worry over fancied organic disease. Rest and the tonic treatment with Dr. Williams Pink Pills will cor rect most forms of backache, even rheu, matic.
 For people who work too hard or dance too much and sleep too little, better habits and a course of treatment with Dr. Williams Pink Pills are all that are needed to drive away the pains and aches chat are warnings of 8 coming break down.
 Two books, Building Up the Blood'' and "Nervous Disorders" will be sent free, if you are interested, by the Dr. Will Hams Medicine Co.,, Schenectadv. N. f. You can get pr. Williams Pink Pills at the nearest drug store or by mail at 50 cents per box six boxes, S2.5O. :

1 Of the rowing competition at Pough- 1 keepsie until the athletic association gets on it's feet financially and the crews warrant the expense of the costly trip up the Hudson. It is believed that the reason for leaving the date of the Poughkeepsie race out of this years schedule is due
 to the cut of at least $1,000 in this years crew appropriations which even nccessitated that the fall crew work be dispensed with.
 Another surprise came when it was announced that thetriangular race for the ChiId's cup would be held this year on May 13 on the Schuylkill in stead of on Lake Carnegie at Prince ton, as in previous years. The schedule contains only two other races, one with Yale at Philadelphia, on April 22, in which both the varsity and junior varsity will row, and one with the Middies at Annapolis, on May 6, when 1t is likely that the freshmen will go along in place of the junior varsity eight.

doubt the patriotic devotion, either of our young men or of those who give them employmen ment-those for whose benefit and protection they would, in fact enlist
 This is the most brutally frank ad- mission we have had from a public man that the army is to be used for the protection of the employer. We'll, since 100000 men are going to enlist I suppose it will be for the protection of you and your fathers; in other words the army would be needless un- less it is for the protection of prop erty. It is a party to the game"
 Professor Nearing, in answering questions, made some reference to the Lreparedness discussion. pointing out that it was all worked up by capital istic interests. It was a curious fact, he pointed out, that the loudest advo- cates Of preparedness were close to Bethlehem, Pa., and Wilmington, Del. He asserted that there was very little enthusiasm about preparedness in the middle west.

''NEW HAVEN" INQUIRY
 BY BAY STATE BEGUN
Probe Into Financial Condition Ot Road With Reference to Harmon
 izing Conflict of Authority.

Boston, Mass, Dec. S.-A general inquiry ordered by the state Legisla- ture into the financial condition of the New York. New Haven & Hartford railroad With special reference to har- monizing, if possible, the conflict of authority exercised over the road by Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con- necticut, was begun before the pub- lie service commission yesterday
 The object of the inquiry, as ex- plained by Chairman Macleod of the commission, was to determine what can and ought to be done to bring the ''New Haven" system into harmony with Massachusetts laws; to safe- guard the future so that a departure from such laws would be dangerous and to learn how a sound and effective system of public regulation may best be administered for the road. Chair man Macleod declared the company had apparently made unauthorized in- Vestments, had assumed unauthorized liabilities and had acquired real es- tate and other property not used for railroad purposes without proper au- thority
 President Howard Elliott of the io"iii iOoo dooeI Ieu tldI It was Tor the interests of the "New Haven" that it should be allowed to continue its whole, or partial ownership in the Central New England, the New York. Ontario & Western, the New York. Westchester & Boston. the Mill.rook Company the New York Connecting Railway, the Rutland, a number of small branch lines.
 It was his opinion that the "New Haven" should assume the assets and liabilities of New England Navigation Company, but he was not sure that the Massachusetts laws would permit such action.
 President Elliott also expressed the belief that federal valuation of the New Haven's" properties would show values in excess of those now listed in it's books.
 "A railroad should have a right to get return upon it's increasing value in cities, even if it has to increase it's rates," he said. "I do not think the original investment has anything to do with what we should do today We should be entitled to a fair return. even if it gave up 25 per cent. on an original investment'
 Chairman Macleod replied that the public service commission could not recognize or consider any such theory in dealing with the inquiry.

KEEPS KIDNEYS ACTIVE WITH A
 GLASS OF SALTS
Must flush your Kidneys occasionally ii you cat meat regu-
 Iarly.
Noted authority tells what causes
 Backache and Bladder

weakness.
 No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a wellknown authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poi sons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, head aches, liver trouble, nervousness, con- stipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder, disorders come from slug gish 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 attended by sensation of scala ing, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of 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, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to ac- tivity, also neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irrita- tion, thus bladder disorders
 lad Salts is inexpensive and can not 1njure; makes a delightful effer- vescent Whitewater drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoid ing serious kidney complications.

NEARING ATTACKS
 WILSON'S MESSAGE
Professor Says Portion of Address Admits Army for Is Protection of
 American Employers.

New Haven, Dec. S.-'This is the most brutally frank admission that we have had from a public man that the army is to be used for the protec- ton Of employers" said Professor Scott Nearing, Ph. D., of Toledo, O., ill the Lampson Lyceum last night, in referring to a certain passage in the presidents message dealing with the rossibility of raising a citizen army of 100000.
 There was a large audience which gave the professor the closest atten- tion. particularly his refer ences to the message, which were several. There were two or three sentences in the mssage, Professor Nearing said that were worth noticing.
 "For instance" he said, "the presi- dent says he would raise citizen army of 100000 men, and you ought particularly to note that, for you, as college fellows, will probably be in the game, and he says he hopes em- ployers will let their employees off, The president adds: T, for one, do not

PENN. MAY NOT
 ROW ON HUDSON
Students Get Surprise When Pough- keepsie Is Left Off Crew Schedule
 Next Year.

Philadelphia, Dec. S.-The biggest surprise that Penn's Athletic Associa- tion has sprung in years came after the last meeting of the present board last night, when the crew schedule an- nounced and ratified for the coming year was minus the usual Poughkeep- sic race.
 For years the Red and Blue has sent three crews to Poughkeepsie to meet Columbia, Cornell, Syracuse and some of the Western eights, but this season promises to see the Red and Blue sweeps missing from the start ing line when the shells line up for the big race of the year.
 It is just barely possible that Penn s Athletic Association may later see fit to restore the date of the Poughkeep- sic regatta on the crew schedule, but since the schedule was ratified today it is thought that Penn will drop out
