Country Girl
Victim of the
Bright Lights

Anna Hanson, a small, slender
girl from Longbranch, who came
to Tacoma year ago, the police
say, and fell victim to the
bright lights, was given three
months sentence in the county
Jail today by Police Judge Evans
She Is 10 years of age.
Anna is an example of how
quickly an innocent girl may sue
cumb to the night attractions of
big city," said Capt. ID. o. Smith
today. "She was a pure, inno-
cent girl a year ago when she
came from her country home look
ing for work"
The name given by the girl is
admittedly not her right name. 1t
is said that the girls parents,
farmers at Longbranch, think
their daughter is employed in a
doctors office and have no knowl-
edge of her career.

#. KIDNEYS ACT
BAD. TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid, which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to. filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog You must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous> waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night
Either: consult a good, reliable physi-
cian at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
tablespoonful in 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
clean and stimulate luggish kidneys,
also to neutraize acids in the urine 80 it
no longer initiates, thus ending bladder,
weakness. =:

In the Interest of Game.

Fins, Feathers and Fur is tho
name given monthly magazine, the
official bulletin of the Minnesota
Game and Fish commission, the mi
tial edition Of which has just made
its appearance. The paper is edited
by Carlos Avery, executive agent,
who in his foreword says that among
the powers and duties of the COM
mission, as enumerated in the salute,
is "the collection and defusion of
such statistics and information as
shall be germane to the purposes of
the act"
This is the authority for the es-
Enlistment Of the bulletin, (which
it is hoped to make of service in pro-
noting the other and more import
ant functions of this department of
the state government, the propaga-
ton and preservation of such vari-
cites of game and fish as it shall deem
to be of public value, and the carry
ing into effect such laws as may from

pose Of conserving the game and fish

reliable information in regard to the

synopsis of the work of the depart

ranged, newsy and contains many
items of interest for sportsmen and

With what a sense of shame and
humiliation must the militarists look
upon the founders of this govern
ment, when they view the three
>thousand-mile boundary line be-
tween the United States and Canada.
Not a fort along the whole line; not
a battleship on the Great Lakes; not
knowing what moment the Canadians
may rush in upon u.s. And what a
stimulus to business it would have
been, had the frontier, like that be-
tween France and Germany, been
fortified. We could have spent bill
lions of dollars on forts and battle
ships and employed hundreds of thou
sands Of men. All these blessings
are denied us simply because the
Fathers of the Republic cravely
agreed with the British to leave the
international boundary unfortified-

country, and the methods by which
they help themselves at the public
trough. I will go further and ven
tllre the assertion that not 80 mem
beers of congress know the identity OF
the select ring of patriots for profit
into whose pockets the millions Of
the masses are pouring, which gentle
men have a Water-tight monopoly in
this country on the traffic in war
trading and who have drawn down
every penny Of $5O,000,OOO in exces-
sive and extortionate profits from
the government by direct virtue of
their influential friends in the army,
the navy, and in congress. Lest any
gentlemen in high places should re-
sent the implication of being friends
of the war trust, hasten at the out
set to concede their contentious that
they are patriots, yes, all of them.
Congress can investigate the war
trust until it is black in the face, and
it will get nowhere. The secretary
Of war can try as he will to get some
one to underbid the armor ring,
either in this country or, abroad, and
lie will not be able to escape the net;
he has tried and has not been able
to escape it. M
Armor,, armament and ammunition
contractors are not big enough fools
to cut each others Threats. Their
business is to supply for gigantic
profit the wherewithal for the people
of the earth to enjoy a monopoly of
throat cutting and the pulling of
limb from limb. AS for themselves,
they do not indulge in price-cutting
warfare. Their game is purely pro-
fit making. They start the ball roll
ing by making nations distrustful
Of one another, and then in inducing
them to overprepare for war. Does
anyone doubt that if the European
nations had not been overprepared
for war they would have been SO
willing to have entered into it?
