SALTS IN HOT WATER
 CLEARS PIMPLY SKIN
Says we must make kidneys clean the blood and pimples
 disappear.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re- suit from toxins, poisons and impur- ities which are generated in the bow els and then absorbed into the blood through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body.
 It is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out in the form of urine. but in many instances the bowels ere ate more toxins and impurities than the kidneys can eliminate, then the blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of getting rid of these i'm purities which often break out all over the skin in the form of pimples.
 The surest way to clear the skin of these eruptions, says a noted author ity, is to get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of hot water each morning before breakfast for one week. This will prevent the forma- tion of toxins in the bowels. It also stimulates the kidneys to normal &C., tivity, thus coaxing them to filter the blood of impurities and clearing the skin of pimples.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia- Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent drink which usually makes pim- pies disappear; cleanses the blood and is excellent for the kidneys as well.

THERE IS VAST ARMY

of men and women who really never know what it is to enjoy sound, vibrat- ing health-who would be surprised to suddenly gain that exhilarating vitality that robust health brings.
 Literally thousands without any par ticular sickness live in general de- bility', as the doctors call it-have headaches, are tired and indifferent. To all such people we say with unmis- takable earnestness-"Take Scott's Emulsion after meals for one month and allow it's rare oilfood to enrich and en- iven your blood, quicken your circula- ton, stimulate nutrition, and aid nature to develop that rea1 red-b1ooded life that means activity, enjoyment, success"
 Scott's Emulsion is not a drug, but q pleasant food-tonic-free from alcohol. One bottle may help you.

GERMAN GOVERNMENTS
 PROPOSED WAR TAX BILLS.
Estimated That New Taxes Will Yield
 oo,ooo, 900 Marks.

Berlin, March 1 Cby wireless to Say vilIe) ).-Today rfie first official an- nouncement of the governments pro posed war tax bills was published Summarizing the statement, the Over seas News agency says:
 Tt is estimated that the new taxes will yield 50O, ,000 900 marks. They will consist of taxes on special war benefits and on receipts. There will be additional postage dues, a tax on waybills. and an increase in the tax on tobacco.
 The government in drafting the bills took several points of view into consideration. While there is a moral necessity for a tax on special benefits made during the war, it is necessary at the same time not to hinder the formation of new capital because the enemy Is attempting to crush the economic forces of the German nation and is even planning to continue this design after the end of the war.
 Tn order to leave the direct taxes free for the federal states and mu- nicipalIties, the new federal taxes will be mostly indirect The new taxes will spare smaller incomes and must affect no new organizations during the war.
 As these taxes are not considered to be of a permanent nature, but simply war taxes, a def1nitive financial ar engagement will be necessary at the end of the war"

Jump from Bed
 in Morning and Drink Hot Water Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning
 before breakfast.

Why is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, Respondent worried; some days headacfy. dull and unstrung; some days really incapaci- tated by illness.
 If we all would practice inside-bath- ing, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of thousands of half-sick, anaemic looking souls with pasty, muddy complexions we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy checked people everywhere. The req son is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accunulates under our pres ent mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the system neacty an ounce of waste material must be carried out else it ferments and forms ptomainelike poisons which are absorbed into the blood
 Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day, before the fire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous days accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women, whether sick or well. are advised to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t, as a harm less means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the 1QolSeSLlDl6 material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweeten- ing and purifying the entire alimen- tary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 Millions of people who had their turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleepless nights have become real cranks about the morning inside-bath. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will not cost much at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate to anyone it's cleansing, sweetening and freshen. ing effect upon the system.

After a conference at The Rhode Island which did not terminate until Wednesday morning, at 2 o'clock. agreement was reached on a bill of prices and working conditions be- tween the Westerly Granite Manufac- turers' association, and the stone cut ters, polishers and blacksmiths of the Westerly branch of the Granite Cut ters' union. The real difficulty related to the size of the tool to be used by the cutters and doing work intended for non-union firms. The cutters did not want to use larger than the inch tool but agreed to use an inch and a quarter tools, and the work for non union firms was amicably adjusted.
 This new contract Is of four hours duration. The cutters will receive a minimum wage of S4 a day. an in crease of 75 cents a day. and the pol ishers will receive like pay, which Is a raise of SIPS a day, and the black smiths will receive the same maximum wages,
