pastor OF this church. The resigna-
ton was accepted without prejudice.
Rev. Mr.. Miller was pastor of this
church six years, lacking only a few
weeks. and will go to his new field

friends in W~oonsocket.
Pierre-Upon request of GOV.
Byrne the department of history has
made a detailed investigation and
finds that there are 1,705 voting pre-
cincts in the state. 1t is supposed
that the governor is making a careful
canvas of the comparative cost of a
special primary and an extra legisla-
tive session. The number OF pre-
cincts proves that the Burke plan
advocates have greatly exaggerated
on the cost of the primary. which
would not exceed $4,000.

Ireland is excluded from the terms

The largest assemblage of mem
bers since the war began faced the

ed relief to return from the front so
that they might be able to vote on the
compulsion bill.
The Earl of Derby. who conducted
the recruiting campaign, was in the
peers gallery.
Mr.. Asquith said no case has been
made out for general compulsion, and
that the bill he was introducing could
be supported by those opposed TO con-
scription.
Mr.. Asquith opened his address
with an analysis of the figures in the
Derby report. He emphasized the
fact that during the Derby campaign
nearly 5000, 000 men had offered
their services. Even deducting those
rejected on the ground Of physical
disability, the total was still in ex-
cess of 100000.

SIOUX CITY MANS PLAN
WOULD SINK ALL WARSHIPS IN
WORLD AND REIMBURSE
THE OWNERS.

sioux CITY, Jan "a gigantic
peace party, one of the function of
which would be the sinking of all the
worlds battleships in some more or
less remote spot in the Pacific ocean
next Christmas day. is proposed by
A. Il. Stillwell, a former Sioux City
man, as one branch of his practical
plan for a warless world.
The proposal is published in The
Resurrection, a magazine printed in
Paris. and devoted to the raising of
funds for the aid of war victims and
orphans.
Mr.. Stillwell was identified with
Sioux City's real estate interests
about twenty-five years ago. Since
the breaking out of the war he has
devoted his time to writing designed
to expose the ambitions of the Ger
a militarism, as we'll as to suggest
remedial measures against war.
Among his works are ITO All the
( World Except German and War
Is Mesmerism."
Wants International Police.
Disarmament of all nations, the es-
adjustment of an international tribu-
nal with supreme police powers. and
the organization of an international
war insurance fund are other fea-
lures of the plan.
Mr.. Stillwell sums up his plan for
the speedy termination of the war as
follows: AT The Hague there shall
be called. in that waiting palace Of
peace, a congress of nations, each ma
ton to appoint two or three repre-
%sentatiyes. The total cost of the war
to each b%elligerent nation from the
day it was started must be audited
and presented to the tribunal. There
shall then be, by the vote of each ma
ton OF the world, bonds authorized
and issued equaling the total amount
of the cost of the war-to the British
empire. TO France. Belgium, Russia,
Germany. Italy. Turkey, Austria,
Serbia. Montenegro and Japan.
These bonds shall be for 100
years unless redeemed earlier. and
shall bear interest at 3 per cent. To
each nation shall be paid the amount
in these bonds equal to the cost OF
the wal from the day it started 10
the date the armies disbanded. Out
OF these bonds to be paid Germany
enough shall be preserved to pay all
the property damages to Belgium. as
that nation was only drawn into the
war by Germany violating its agree
ment.
Would Sink All Warships.
Each nation of the world shall
agree to turn over to The Hague tri-
bunal such warships as are necessary
for policing the seas. All other war
shaps that cannot be broken up or
otherwise used in peaceful ayocations
to be sunk in the ocean on Christmas
day. 1915, thus celebrating the great
est day in the worlds history. Each
nation to agree TO build no more
ships of war"
The plan provides that each nation
shall contribute to the peace tribunal
on a pro rata basis of the previous
cost of maintaining an army and
navy. Thus the wal bonds of the
pacified nations could be speedily re-
deemed and there would accumulate
in The Hague treasury sufficient
funds to finance the international
agreement, the fund to be used as an
insurance premium against war.

MEAT CLOGS KIDNEYS

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the kidneys,
they become overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter
the waste and poisons from the blood,
then we get sick. Nearly all rheu-
matism, headaches, liver trouble, ner-
vousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache IN
the kidneys or your back hurts or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by 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 IA
nous salts is made from the acid OF
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with litkia, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate the
kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irrita-
tion, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure. thereby avoiding serious kidney
