 Drink lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form pr other. says a well-knowu authority because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys. they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all Borts of distress, particularly back lche and misery in the kidney region; rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, kcid stomach, constipation, torpid tver. sleeplessness, bladder and urin- iry irritation.
 The moment your back hurts or kid aeys aren't acting right, or if bladder sotflers you, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good pharmacy; IalSe tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and TOUT kidneys will then act fine. This arnous salts is made from the acid of rrapes and lemon juice, combined with kthias and has been used for genera Hons to flush clogged kidneys and kimu1ate them to normal activity; lso to neutralize the acids in the urine 10 it no longer irritates. thus ending hader disorders.

BAPTIST MINISTERS
 FAVOR PREPAREDNESS.
Turn Down Resolution Presented by
 Rev. Peter C. Wright.


 By decisive vote Monday the Bap- tist Ministers conference at Philadel- phia, refused to adopt a resolution protesting against the nationwide movement for preparedness to guard the United States against a sudden attack by foreign enemy. The Rev. Baptist church, offered the resolution at the ministers meeting in the First Baptist church.
 Rev. MT. Wright said he had been troubled in mind by the avalanche of preparedness talk" He disliked the idea that college students were being drawn into the movement.
 "As a soldier of the Prince of Peace" continued the minister. "I must pro- test against national preparedness. am certain that the expenditure of billions of dollars for war prepara- tions will not insure universal peace"
 The Rev. MT. Wright said too much money already had been spent to en- large the army and navy.
 A different view was taken by the Rev. Archibald Anderson of Southampton, Pa, who said:
 'I too am a soldier of the Prince of Peace, but as a veteran of the Span ish- American war | see clearly the absolute necessity of preparedness on the part of the United States. When the bullets were whistling around us down there in Cuba, we were thank ful4--that adequate preparation had | been made before we began to fight. Il Haust be remembered that nationa disarmament on our part would no' mean disarmament on the part oi other nations. As a minister of the gospel. I favor universal disarmament | but as a war veteran must protes | against having the United States l Ear, harsdafanNaa p -Fr

 Bronze and navy is a favorite com bination this season.
 A handsome gown noticed yesterday was of African brown silk having bronze stripes. With this was com bined navy chiffon, forming. the long sleeves the open collar and wide gir- dle, being used also in touches on the bodice and plaIted skirt.
 The new soiree- silk in a delicate fiech tint was employed to build an evening dress of special beauty. The skirt was in effective accordion plaited triple founces, the @bodice and. short sleeves being in a combination of the silk with silk net of the same delicate flesh tint
 Certain ehades of green retain their popularity for evening wear. One gown in apple green crepe meteor was frightened up with points of Irish cro- chet in white, the finish being a Frenchy touch of narrow black velvet ribbon
 A dancing frock in pale. blue soiree silk had a daintily draped skirt. iri- descent trimming and knots of pick Canary silk with knife plaited skirt, short flare sleeves of self tulle and a 1 sash girdle of black velvet ribbon con tinuing the touches of black in shoul- der knots and on the skirt. made a | stunning gown. | With the approach of winter and the dancing season. it is for every so- ciety woman's advantage to look over | these smart models in the stores.
