pocket and he did so. He said that he
was after the baby and demanded it

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.

One of the features of the report is
discussion Of present methods of con-
structing public buildings.
Il am convinced" says the secre-
tary, that the methods pursued by
the congress for the past Is years of
providing federal buildings through
So called omnibus public building bills
have resulted in the construction of
many public buildings in small towns
and localities where they are not
needed, and at a cost which is clearly
unjustif1ed by any actual requirements
of the communities In which they are
erected. The conclusion is irresistible
that authorizations for public build
ings in these small communities are,
too frequently dictated fy local rea-
sons and without regard to the best In
terests of the government. Tho most
serious aspect Is this; The annual OPP
Grafton and maintenance of these
buildings impose on the treasury n
permanent and constantly increasing
burden.
Common sense and business judg-
ment would seem to demand that
structures for the transaction of gov
eminent business should be authorized
only in localities where they are i'm
peratiVely NEEDED, and that buildings
should not be erected whore no public
necessity can be shown. This result
can be accomplished by divoreing the
public building question from all local
or political conside atoms and author
ling no public buildings until
thorough and intelligent investigation
of each proposed building or project
has been made to this department and II
full report thereon has been submitted
to congress. If such reports were fol-
lowed by the introduction anu passage
of separate measures to cover each
proposed building project the abuses
and evils OF the omnibus-bll method
would be eradicated'

HEAVY MEAT EATERS
HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have bladder trouble-Take
glass Of Salts

No man or woman who eats meat rec1l-
larly can make a mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble.
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in the
Kidneys or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended by
a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in few days your kidneys
will act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine SO it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure;. makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.

SEVENTY THOUSAND
TROOPS ON BORDER

San Antonio, Tex, July 1.-THE
United States now has more than TO-
900 troops on the Mexican border.
This army Is being constantly in
creased by the arrival of militiamen.
Bandit raids in the Big Bend coun-
try and the report that large band
of Villistas is headed that way caused
General Funston to plan the DISPOSE
ton of most of the national guards
men In that region.
The Big Bend country presents
great difficulties to the maintenance
of an army, as each town must be
reached by motor trucks from the
railway, necessitating the use of hun
dreds of trucks.
General Funston remained at the
railway station until late at night to
greet some of the officers of the Sec
ond Kansas infantry, passing through
en- route for Laredo. They were men
who had served under him in the
Philippines.

'Mr. Secretary: / have the honor
to acknowledge the receipt of your
courteous note transmitted to me by
Senior Arredondo on the 4th inst, in
which you refer to my notes of June
20 and June Is, and to assure you OF
the sincere qualification of my gov

"The same spirit of friendship and
of solicitude for the continuance OF

which equally desires an immediate
solution of the matters Of difference
which have long vexed both govern

1t is especially pleasing to my gov

prepared Immediately to exchange
views as to practical plan to re-

of the difficulties which have been the
source of the controversy.
