"Mrs. Wenman always had gay

license form the best solution ol
handling the liquor question. Rev
Penland is organizer here of the I'm

dent women and children. Prior to
coming to Oilton, he was associated
with Charles Page at Sand Springs
in mission work.
In arriving at this opinion in re-
gard to the liquor question, Rev.
Penland says that he does SO as a
converted gambler and saloon man.
He admits that he has studied the
question seriously ever since his
conversion, a number of years ago
that he has preached many prohibit
tion and temperance sermons, and
that he has done mission work among

# KIDNEYS ACT
BAD, TAKE SALTS
Saws Backache Is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney re-
gion it generally means you have
been eating too much meat, says a
well known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which overworks the kid
neys in their effort to filter 1t from
the blood and they become sort OF
paralyzed and loggy. When your
kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve
YOUR bowels; removing all the body s
urinous waste, else you have back
ache. sick headache, dizzy spells; your
stomach sours, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine Is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels
often get sore, water scalds and
you are obliged to seek relief two
or three times during the night.
Either consult a good reliable
physician at once, or get from YOU
pharmacist about four ounces Of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful IL
glass of water before breakfas
for a few days and your kidney
will then act fine. This famous salt
is made from the acid of grapes AM
lemon juice, combined with lithia
and has been used for generations t.
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
also to neutralize acids in the urin
so it no longer irritates, thus endin

EFT Is one Of the anomalies Of his F,
tory that the thing which was
considered during Abraham Lin
coins administration his chief
source Of weakness has become his
greatest strength. His cabinet and gen.

ured the conquering power Of love.
There is nothing so strong as meek
ness, nothing so enduring as mercy.
Inasmuch us Lincoln embodied these
principles, they will render his memory
strong and enduring. The world will
consider him mightier for having saved
life than were all those who destroyed
It: that his kindness was more potent
than his cannon and that, while his
armies conquered the south and freed
the slave, his humanity Will be potent
in conquering the race and liberating
all nations. Sympathy wins men un-
awares. clemency Is mightier than pow
der and ball. and the victories gained
by forgiveness are permanent
Lincoln was an elemental being.
There were no shams or nrtiicialities
about him. He was what he appeared
TO be. even as the oak or rock is what
II appears to be. His first characters
tic was love of truth. He was plain
because plainness does not deceive.
Having nothing to conceal, he was un
affected. He was willing to honor the
handlwork of God by letting himself
shine forth as God made him. He was
unpretentious. for pretense would but
have dimmed his luster. He did moi
accept mere authority, but dug to the
original sources of knowledge for him
self. He thought much and read little
but what he did read was OF the bes
