THE NEWEST REMEDY FOR
BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM and DROPSY.

Kidney, Bladder, and Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many. When the
kidneys are weak or diseased. these
natural filters do not cleanse the blood
sufficiently, and the poisons are carried
= to all parts of the body. There follow
depressions. aches and pains. heaviness,
.drowsiness. irritability. headaches. chill
illness and rheumatism. In some people
there are sharp pains in the back and
loins. distressing bladder disorders and
sometimes obstinate dropsy. The uric
acid sometimes forms into gravel or
Kidney stones. When the uric acid at
fects the muscles and joints il causes
lumbago. rheumatism. govt, or sciatica
This is the time to try '.An-uric."
During digestion uric acid il alb
sorbed into the system from meat eat
en-, and even from vegetables. The poor
kidneys get tired and backache begins.

BRITISH MAY LET
TRADE PROCEED
Note On Interference Will Say
u. S. Cannot Allow Prac-
tees Without Protest.
TO BE SENT THIS WEEK
Administration to Contend Prize Court

= stead of International Law.
TO, BE SENT THIS WEEK

That the note to Great Britain protest.
ing against British interrerences witt
American trade will be sent forward this
week was the statement made by a high
efhcial here yesterday.
The note has been on President VIII
sons desk for nearly two weeks.
That the note will be regarded by the
American people as a vigorous presenta-
ton of the American case against Great
Britain Is the conviction OF those familiar
with the document. 1t Is understood that
the tone Of the note, while in nowise
menactng or severe, Is such as to carry
conviction to the world that the United
States does not intend to permit what
1t regards as the British violation of in
ternauohal law to pass without earnest
protest. ..r.. -.
Britain May Desist.
That the two governments will be
brought to an understanding with regard
to the practices against which the United
States and other neutrals are complain
ing Is not expected. II is felt that the
point Of view of the two governments Is
so widely divergent as to make It almost
hopeless to expect that they will reach
an agreement with regard to what is now
being done. The real basis OF hope In
the situation, however. is the possibility
may 81 utNciop SFcAl
Britain may deem It expedient to modify
materially the practices by which she is
now interfering with what the United
States regards as bona fide neutral trade.
For the moment, however, the British
are contending that they are doing moth
ing that is not justified by acts OF the
United States in the civil war. This gov
eminent, IT Is contended, at that time
made liberal extensions of existing inter-
pretations Of the principles of interna-
tiona law. in the light of the new cir
cumstances. The United States should
now, 1t Is declared. recognize the changed
conditions as affecting world commerce.
and not object to British practices de-
signed to meet such changed conditions.
1t became known yesterday that the
note will cover the principles involved In
the meat cases In which American pack
ers are interested to the extent OF about
S15,00o.0o0 Notice will be served on Great
Britain that the United States cannot &C
cept prize court decisions such as those in
the meat cases which it regards as based
more on municipal laws than on interna-
tional law
Specific action in the meat cases will
be withheld pending the transmission Of
the general note Counselor Polk. Of
the State Department. yesterday discuss
ed these cases with representatives Of the
packers. The packers had no new re-
quest to submit, but merely wished to
talk over the situation in general way.

The Thoughts We Live With

We are supposed to be awake more than half the
time
In all our waking hours the mind is supposed to be
actve-thoughts are chasing another through our
heads
Sometimes we bride and harness these thoughts
and make them work upon the problems of our labor
our business our pursuits Sometimes they wild like
colts in the pasture
Some OF our thoughts memories-pctures of
things have in the past Some OF them are inn
neutrality-suspicious. of things just fancy and perhaps
hope for And some of them plans and conrivings.
Now, good and happy thoughts, and correct and
truthful thoughts certainly great treasures The man
whose thoughts are crooked will certainly go astray.
And the man whose thoughts sad is truly unhappy,
no matter how many friends and other blessings he may
have.
Every must try to sh his thoughts, keep out
the bad and find and cultivate the good
We have friends books, preachers newspapers
to furnish us with good thoughts.
