Before an Insurance Company will take a risk on your life the examining physician will test the urine and re- port whether you are good risk. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog, you suffer from backache, sick headache. dizzy spells, or the twinges and pains of lumbago, rheumatism and gout. The urine is often cloudy, full of sediment: channels often get sore and sleep is disturbed two or three times a night. This is the time you should consult some physician of wide experience-such as Dr. Pierce, of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo. N Y. Send him 10 cents for sample package of his new discovery "Anuric." Write him your symptoms and send sample of urine for test.

WHY :ANURIC' IS AN INSURANCE AGAINST SUDDEN DEATH! Sufferers from BaCkache, Rheumatism and Kidney Trouble

"Anuric'' is a regular insurance and life-saver for all big meat eaters and those who deposit lime-salts in their joints. Ask the druggist for "Anuric" put up by Dr. Pierce, in 50-cent packages.

URGE CLEANLINESS IN DAIRY
Mechanical Mlker Admits No Dust or Dirt, but Must Be Kept Scru-

Much is said of the cleanliness of milk. Most people like to use a pail in milking that has as small an opening as it is convenient to milk into The mechanical milker has no opening that can admit dust or dirt into the milk except where the milk is taken into the tubes. These can be packed with clean cotton if necessary, thus preventing the entrance of dirt or dust
 But the milk taken into the ma chimes may be contaminated by the dirt left in the machine from the

the best known women among the people Of her race in America, and her fame reached outside of racial terri tory She was an ordained minister, becoming one at the age of twenty two years. She came to this country many years ago on lecture tour. At Watertown, Wis, she met and married the father of the present chief of the federal trade commissioner.
 There is one incident in the career of Joseph E. Davies which Washington politicians account remarkable. The chairman of the trade commission, au everybody knows, is Democrat. After Mir. Wilson had been elected men all over the country began to write to him urging the appointment of the Wisconsin man 70 a cabinet po- stion. MT. Davies knew nothing about these efforts in his behalf. His mother was in England and i'll. The son went abroad to care for her and to bring her back to this country as soon as she was able to travel. He was compelled to stay in England for months and was entirely out of di- rect touch with political affairs and his own concerns in this land.
 At that time the Wisconsin legisla- ture was Republican. In the body were good many former students of the University of Wisconsin, of which MT Davies is graduate One night four Republican members and a Dem cratic member of the legislature hap pened to meet. The Republicans said Joseph Davies is an able, high-mind- ed man. He ought to have place in President Wilson's cabinet" It is needless to say perhaps that the Democratic member concded instant ly with what his Republican col leagues had said.
 Then the Republican suggestion was that the senate and assembly of Wis consin should adopt resolutions recon mending Davies for a cabinet position The Democratic member said, That would be fine. but you cant get Republican legislature to do it.
 What was the result? The Repub- lican assembly by unanimous vote passed the resolution and the Repub- lican senate instantly followed suit
 Joseph E. Davies is under forty years of age and he is one of a group of young men whom President Wilson called as governmental aids in his administration. In positions just be- low that of cabinet rank there are today in Washington many young men, or young as the world looks on age when considering the responsibili- ties which it must bear

Davies has the Celtic temperament which makes for hospitality and good nature Until a Celt reaches the point of righteous indignation and is there fore likely to explode, he is as po- lite as nature ever allowed any man to be.

 The Celtic people are more or less emotional, and perhaps the accent should be placed on the more rather than on the less. In the greater men whom the Celts have contributed to public life, the emotionalism while marked. has always shown the effect of the steadying hands of thought and of conscience. Emotionalism does not run away with Lloyd-George of Wales and of England, nor does it run away with his cousin Joseph F. Davies of Washington and Wisconsin, for this chieftain of the federal trade commits sion is a cousin of the man now most in the public eye in the British islands.
 It is within the range of possibilities that if two or three years ago some great corporation official of the United States should have consulted a for tune teller she would have looked at his palm and said: Look out, for dark. handsome man is about to stand in your path" MT. Davies is a dark maa, and it is no fattery at all to say that he is a handsome one. He became the commissioner of corpora tions soon after Mir Wilson was in augurated president If the United States. Many men had picked Joseph E. Davies for a cabinet position, and there are those to say that the proph- ecy of such a place for him event ually may not go unfulfilled The bureau of corporations, as it's name implies, looked after corporation mat ters. It was check on illegal dongs on the part of great concerns of the country and it was also intended as a help to such corporations as wanted to obey the law to the last letter and who wanted to know definitely just what the latter was.

villages; that in the hurried solution of the
meat problem this increase of range contains
the possibility of the lowering of cost to the
consumer; and provides a vast region where
wealth and ~contentment will abide; that the
troubles of the homesteader will be over, for
the fences will 60 up all over the plain, and
that it means the elimination of the range wars
in the future.
The above is certainly a beautiful picture
of what an Ethiopian land law might do for
some sections of the west. 1t is a very clever
presentation of the points that would natural
ly interest and appeal to the stockman and land
Spectator.
But the trouble with the whole thing is that
it is not true. No such land law was eracted
at the last session of congress. There is no.
thing to indicate that a law which will ac-
.complish such wonderful results as set up by
Mr.. Jones, will pass at the next session of
congress or at any other time.
1t is true that a bill carrying the provisions
enumerated by Mr.. Jones passed one house
of congress. A similar bill passed the other.
The houses disagreed and the bills were lost.
Just as thousands of other bills have been lost
at the end of a session of congress and never
heard of again.
The $40 acre stock homestead is yet a
a pure myth, which New Mexico can
do no more than hope for.
Mr.. Jones representations that such a bill
had become a law was a pure bluff. 1t GER
family showed neither dignity nor statesman
ship, IT was an insult to the intelligence of
the people of New Mexico. It was certain
to be discovered. IT was one oil the putterines
.of a petty politician. Nothing more.

PLAYING PETTY POLITICS

The Hon. A. A. Jones may be a man OF
remarkable ability, sterling character and Won
derful political foresight as he has been fire.
qucntly hcralded by his admirers and the
newspapers who have rallied to his support.
However we must be pardoned for Or in
ability to recognize such high character and
sI1ch wonderful foresight in a man who stoops
TO such ordinary political trickcry as Mr.. Jones
has been guilty of within the past two week
on the stump and in his interviews with vari-
ous newspaper men and other members Of his
own party.
He has made no less than a dozen loval
Democratic newspapers his dupe in perpetrat-
ing a political bluff on the stockmen and set
tiers of northeastern New Mexico.
We refer to his representation that a won
derful new land bill had been passed by the
last Democratic congress. that he had recon-
nended and worked for the same and prac-
tically been the means of securing it that this
bill meant the addition of several thousand
settlers to the population of New Mexico. that
it would increase our revenues thousands and
thousands of dollars: that it would mean the
filing on ten million acres of land and trer-
endous irnpetuous to the livestock industry:
that it is now possible for any person Of repute
to obtain $40 acres of public land by the pay
ment of $500, three years residence and a
few improvements: that it means the ultimate
of the cattle mems problem; that one
hundred thousand persons will file on land in
the states of Colorado. Wyoming and New
Mexico: that one outstanding feature is that.
the law will provide the last chance of the
citizen to get vacant public land of any value
by filing and at the unusually small cost at
the government is now letting out lands
to the bona fide settler that it is to be the last
chance of the horneseeker to get original fill
ing and of the resident to add to his holdings:
that it means the state is to get thousands and
thousands in the future from the taxation of
he lands which are now living idle. that it
a means by which a sturdy class of
people will make their permanent homes here
md become citizens and voters; that the coun-
nv will be dotted with little settlements and

mendable common sense.
1t had ever been the weakness of the

is quite good enough for the lady

is concerned the more expensive a thing
is the better he likes it. Too often this weak

In the dispute between the railroads and the
four brotlerfoods which constitute the upper
crust of railroad labor President Wilson led
the way in yielding to the inperious demands
OF the unions. He weakly abandoned the prin-
.ciplc OF arbitration in railroad wage contro-
versics which the Federal government has
been trying for years to establish, and which
society now accepts as the most equitable and
helpful method of settling controversies be-
tween capital and labor. Yet, while reprdiat-
ing the principle of arbitration, he has the as
surance to say that he is one of its stanchest
s,,pporters-that he favors absolutely and I'M
conditionally its application, not in this par
ticular case, but in other less announcement
