URIC ACID IN MEAT
 BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says little Salts in water may save you from dread
 attack

attack.
 Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states well-known author ity. We are advised to dress warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less meat, but drink plenty of good water.
 Rheumatism is direct result of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce uric acid which is absorbed into the blood It is the function of the Kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores arc closed thus forcing tthe Kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accommodating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism.
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put tablespoon ful in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action. thus ridding the blood of these impurities.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice. combined with )ithia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have pleas ant. cffervescent lithia-water drink which helps overcome uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as we'll

From the point of view of the Wash ingtOn government Great Britain while conceding the shipment of foodstuffs to Germany under a system that would guarantee their distribution to the civilian population and not the
 belligerent forces of Germany, would have much to gain from an accept ance of the American proposals.
 The abolition of the war zones around Great Britain and Ireland and the removal of all mines, it is gued, would render the commerce of the allies safe, subject to the usual restrictions of the right of visitation, search and capture. Responsibility Never Fixed.
 Originally when mines were laid in the North sea Germany and Great Britain accused each other of being the aggressor in this respect. The responsibility for the initiative never was fixed by the United States gov ernment and no protest was made. The new move by the United States would brush aside all questions of culpa- bility and appeal to the belligerents to sweep up their mines and prevent further accidents such as already have befallen nearly three score neutrals, including the American steamers Evelyn and Carib.
 It is understood that while the adoption of a definite agreement on all the points involved in the Ameri- can communication may require some item the United States also has sug- gested that if the principles of the plans are acceptable, some tentative arrangements may be secured by which neutral commerce for the pres ent will not be menaced.

It can be stated authoritatively that in the American communication made identical to Germany and Great Brit ain no mention was made by the United States of what course 1t would pursue in the event of rejection or it's proposals.
 The United States assumed rather the role of mediator in an effort se- cretly for the present, to reach an agreement without the embarrass- ments of public discussion in the bel ligerent countries where passions were thought likely to stimulate in fuences that would defeat impartial consideration of questions involved.
 High officials of the Washington government have shown much solici- tude over what might be the extent of retaliatory measures adopted by the beligerents if they continue to disre- gard previously accepted principles of law.

arguments used is that if the policy of starvation is put into effect by Great Britain, the first to feel the pinch of hunger might be the Brit ish, French and Russian prisoners. Another suggestion said to have been conveyed is that suffering forced upon the civilian population of Germany might produce an un- wholesome effect on the attitude of the American people toward Great Britain and her allies.
 Neutrals Together.
 There is every evidence that neu- tral governments are working in close harmony with the Washington government and have manifested more than willingness to co-op- crate in efforts made here to assist in a settleemnt of the vexatious questions arising out of submarine and mine warfare. Secretary Bryan denied yesterday that an embargo by the United States on exports of food stuffs was contemplated.
 Representative Porter's Bill.
 Following a talk with President Wilson, Representative Porter of Pennsylvania, republican, introduced d bill to authorize the president to lay, regulate and revoke embargoes on all ships and vessels in United States ports, of United States or for eign vessels, if in his opinion it is necessary until fifteen days after the comm mencem ent of the next session of congress.
 No man. said MT. Porter, 'can anticipate the emergencies likely to arise in our foreign relations during the next nine months, and congress should not adjourn without placing in the presidents hands every possi ble assistance to meet the complica tions as they arise.''
 The delicacy of the international negotiation prevents officials from re- vealing just what has been proposed. The ministers from Norway and Sweden and other neutral envOys who have inquired, some of them even by instructions from their governm ents, have not been given the details by the state department because the sub- ject is regarded as in an informal and unofficial stage as yet, more In the
