"The Birth Of a Nation"

The colored people of st. Paul have
been more highly wrought up over the
showing of the pictures of "The Birth
of Nation, than anything that has
happened in st. Paul before. And
they made a gallant fight to stop the
showing of them, but only succeeded in
having a couple of scenes eliminated.
The daily papers have given consider
able space to the contentious pro and
con, so there is no need for THE APP
PEAL to thresh over the old straw.

that did valiant service and it was a
great pleasure to find that SO many
friends among the whites were with
us In our contention and were not
afraid OF ashamed to say so.
We did not succeed in having the
showing Of the vicious film stopped
entirely. which was unanimously de
sired BY US, but we put up such a fight
that it showed that we do not intend
to have our rights utterly ignored or
ruthlessly trod upon without protest

Hitherto, the opening day OF the new

the exchange of friendly wishes, and of
messages of peace and good will, be-

of the world. They were conveyed by
means of telegraph, letter, and more
especially through the foreign ENJOYS
stationed in the various capitals. In
fact, everywhere in Continental Eu-
rope, the ruler of the country has been
accustomed to receivei in state the
members of the foreign diplomatic
corps, for the purpose of their re-
spective governments, that the opening
year might be rich in blessings for
himself and for his nation.
Twelve months ago on the first day
of the year, King Albert of Belgium,

500 grains of acid and waste, so We
can readily understood the cital i'm
portance of keeping the kidneys ac-

too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter before breakfast each morning for
a few days and your kidneys will act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice
combined with lithia, and has been US
ed for generations to clean and slim
ulate clogged kidneys; also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it no lon
ger is a source of irritation, thus end
ing bladder weakness.

should take now and then to keep
bheir kidneys clean and active. Try
