Secretary Missouri Welfare Commits

St. Louis, Nov. 19.-F'urther details
of the alleged racial issue at the last
annual meeting of the Missouri con-
ference of social welfare, which led to
the resignation of Oscar Leonard. for
three years secretary of the confer

Leonard said he resigned from the
position to which he had just been
reelected unanimously because of an
"affront to his race
He said:
There was an organized effort on
foot not to elect Rabbi Louis Bern
stein of st. Joe as president of the
conference as long as L was secretary.
The only reason given by those who
organized this movement was that the
conference could not permit two Jews
to hold office at the same time.

WORRY, DEsPoNDEVcZ.

Kidney Disease is suspected by medical
men when patients complain of backache
or suffer with irregular urination, dis
turbed, too frequent, scanty or painful
passage. The general symptoms are rheu-
matte pains or neuralgia, headaches,
dizzy spells, irritability, dependency,
weakness and general misery. Worry
Is a frequent cause and sometimes a
symptom of kidney disease. Thousands
have testified to Immediate relief from
these symptoms after using Dr.. Pierce's

SUDDEN DEATH
Caused by Disease of the Kidneys.

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is
increased and the heart functions are
attacked. When the kidneys no longer
pour forth waste, uremic poisoning
occurs and the person dies, and the
cause is often given as heart disease, or
disease of brain or lungs.
1t is a good insurance against such a
risk to send 10 cents for a sample
package of wAnuric" the latest dis
covery of DIR. Pierce. Also send a
sample of your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DIR. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. When you suffer from
backache, frequent or scanty urine,
rheumatic pains here or there; or that
constant tired, WORKOUT feeling, it's
time to write DIR. Pierce, describe your
symptoms and get his medical opinion
without charge-absolutely free. This
wAnuric" of Doctor Pierce's is found
to be 81 times more active than ithia,
for it dissolves uric acid in the system
as hot water does sugar.
Simply ask for Dr.. Pierce's Anuric
Tablets. There can be no imitation.
Every package of vAnuric" is sure to
be DR.. Pierce's. You will find the sigma

Gardens and Commencement.

Give a man garden such fairly
satisfies him, and from the sOlace of kindly
thoughts it is but a step to a reasonable
degree of contentment. You can't be con-
tented unless you have kindly thoughts.
No man of ungenerous thoughts has even
a speaking acquaintance with contentment.
1t is perfectly possible, of course, to have
kindly thoughts and contentment, and yet
have no garden. If that were not so, we
should have to be mighty sorry for vast
masses of people who live in the city,
rich and poor-and it would be oppressive
to feel that where there is no garden there
can be no contentment- But the garden
often, if not infalliably, makes for just
what the poet declares and likewise for
the peace of mind of which he speaks. For
there are three graces of the heart, which
usually go hand in hand-kindly Thoughts,
COntentment and Peace of Mind. There
is no better place to WOO them than in the
garden in that daily hour which amateur
gardeners consecrate to themselves while
they shut out the whole world and it's
vexations.-Pittsburg Gazette Times.

states drop several notches and give
way to smaller states.
Nebraska trails Iowa closely for per
capita honOrs, having one car to every
twenty-three inhabitants, and South
Dakota is not far behind, with one car
to every twenty-seven inhabitants.
Minnesota, however, fails to keep well
up with its neighbors. having one car
to every dightyHine. Inhabitants.
However, the general report on the
territory Immediately surrounding
Sioux City in the matter of automo-
bile ownership is strictly in line with
other reports as to prosperous condi-
lions in this part of the county
reports that have caused the Sioux
City circle to be designated as the
whitest spot on the business map of
the United States.
AS California and Iowa lead in the
matter OF automobiles per capita, Mis-
sissippi and Tennessee are the trail
ers of all the states, Tennessee laying
claim only to one automobile for
every 400 inhabitants and Mississippi
to one for. every 1000 inhabitants.
The fact that Tennessee is a noun
famous country and that the colored
people form so large a part Of Mis-
sissippi's population probably explains
the comparative paucity of automo-
biles in those states.-SiouX City

seems to be literally thousands of peo-

and they all call upon us for informa-

ed and hundred and one other things
So we are compiling from our many
sources of first hand information this
complete official road guide of the Lin

In it are included the complete re.
ports Of the several score of official

The book will give the mileages, the

approximate price of supplies in ev.

the local speed limits-everything
