ARE YOUR KIDNEYS WELL?
Many Dickinson People Know the
Importance of Healthy Kidneys.

Importance of Healthy Kidneys.
The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day.
Well kidneys remove impurities.
Weak kidneys allow impurities to
multiply.
No kidney ill should be neglected.
There is possible danger in delay.
If you have headache,
If you are nervous, dizzy or worn
out,
Begin treating your kidneys at
once;
Use a proven kidney remedy.
None endorsed like Doan's Kidney
Pills.
Recommended by thousands.
Proved by Mandan testimony.
w. P. Reynolds, Main St., Mandan,
N. D., says: "Severe pains across
my back, frequent headaches and
dizzy spells and irregular action of
my kidneys caused me much annoy
ance I came to the conclusion that
my kidneys needed attention and
after using Do&n's Kidney Pills a
short time, I was cured"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
cured Mr.. Reynolds. Foster-Mil-

CORRESPONDENTS TURN
DOWN INVITATION
Men Cannot Keep Up Pace With the
World and Drink the Mildest
of Intoxicants.

August A. Busch, head of the An
heuser-Busch Brewing Association of
st. Louis, Mo-, invited the 400 special
newspaper correspondents attending
the Democratic national convention
in that city to partake of mint juleps
at his country home in st. Louis
county. Mr. Busch sent automobiles
to carry the correspondents to his
home, but fewer than 100 of the 400
correspondents accepted his hospitali-
ty, and more than score Of automo-
biles engaged for the occasion went
away empty. One correspondent, a
longtime personal acquaintance of Mr..
Busch, in written declination OF fine
invitation, said in part:
Besides, Mr.. Busch, the time has
passed when newspaper men can keep
the pace of the fastest men in the
world, and NEEDLE with even the mild
est of intoxicants This fact Is rec
ognized in the most practical way by
q large majority Of the craft. During
last week at Chicago, when the pres
sure OF work was tremendous, and the
weather abominable, ! was in con-
slant contact with the same body Of
correspondents who are heretoday,
and in all that time ] did not see even
one under the influence of drink.
81 hope to see the time come when
men of my calling will no longer be
exposed TO the dangers which beset
the now recognized standards of hos
pitality, but that the open handed
friendliness which / know you feel
toward your friends and mine, will
find some other form of expression"

ALCOHOL NOT a MEDICINE
Physicians Find Very Little Use for
Alcohol internally.

A national pharmaceutica publica
ton attracted attention few months
ago by emitting alcohol from It's Of
fetal list of "materia medica." The
explanation was that alcohol is no lon.
ger recognized as q medicine.
Writing in the New York Depart.
ment of Health bulletin, DR.. Donald
b. Armstrong emphasizes this tenden.
cy to Danish alcohol from the prescrip.
ton counter. mo longer" he says,
do therapeutics advocate for q cold
that the patient go home, retire to his
bed after hanging his derby hat on the
bedpost, and drink whisky until he
can see two hats Briefly, 1t may be
said that the modern physician finds
very little use for alcohol internally"
This is due. he says, to the dis
coverty that alcohol Is not what man
kind has thought 1t. 1t Is not a stimu-
liant at all. In It's drug action, 1t is
precisely the opposite-a depressant.
1t has food value, but as food II Is ex-
pensive. Ten cents worth of beer
provides 240 calories of food energy,
while ten cents worth of sirloin steak

Found After -Four Years

For some 40 years James Marshea
had kept a jewelry store at Cam
bridge, Mass, where he was well
known to hundreds of Harvard Uni
versity students. About four years
ago he suddenly disappeared. His
friends believed that his mind had
become deranged through worry over
business troubles. A countrywide
search was made, members of Sc
cret order of which he was a member
joining with his friends in looking
for him.
At length, when every clue had
been followed out and when the
searchers had looked in every pos
sible and impossible place without
any results, his family and close
friends gave him up as lost. The
secret order, however, continued it's
efforts to find him. Branches of the
organization in various parts of the
country continued to watch out for

Making Cellar Waterproof

Ques. What can be done to make
cellar waterproof in fiat land when
cement and sand fail?--Ans. 1t is
very difficult to keep water out of a
cellar when the same is built in low
lying land. One way would be to dig
down outside Of cellar and cover out
err surface of wall with heavy coat
ing of coal tar, asphalt or pitch. If
walls are of concrete, wash outer sur
face with a mixture consisting Of one
part concentrated I've, two parts alum
and 16 parts water. Put on two or
three coats, allowing time for each
application to dry before putting on
another. Melted parafin, applied with
a brush while hot, gives good results
with any wall but this is rather ex-
pensive.

So swiftly has the tide turned
against liquor in business that now
brewery workers are about the only
ones who demand and receive drinks
during the days work. The steel in

ever threatens. has set itself sternly
against the use of liquor during work

GIVE preference In promotions to total

Some OF the mightiest corporations
In America are now proceeding with
well calculated temperance campaigns
exerting a profound influence upon
their men, and through them upon
still wider circles. At the Joliet plant
of the Illinois Steel company, for in
stance, this notice Is posted:
ITO the employees of the Joliet
works, Illinois Steel company:
For the promotion of safety and
welfare 1t is hoped that all employees
will avoid the use of intoxicating
liquors.
Under the rules of the Joliet works
any employe who uses intoxicating
liquor while on duty will be dis
charged.
I'm making promotion in any de-
partment of the plant superintendent
of departments and foremen will Sc
lect for promotion only those who do
not use intoxicating liquors"
And the United States Steel Corpor-
alton at Gary flashes an electric sign
which might have been written by a
committee composed of Billy Sunday,
Purley Baker and Frank Hanly:
did booze ever do you any good ?
did booze ever get you better
job?
did booze ever contribute any
thing to the happiness of your fami-

DENVER MAN ON PROHIBITION
Places Where Bars Stood Now Being
Used BY Some other Business.

The Wall Street Journal in a re-
cent issue said:
wv. ]. Barker, vice president and
general manager of the Denver Gas
& Electric Light Company, has been
in New York. In speaking about
Prohibition in Colorado he. said:
THE putting out of BUSINESS of so
many saloons was regarded as a SER
ious matter at first, but by careful
checking we have discovered that
practically every place formerly run
as bar is now being used by some
other business and in many cases the
consumption of gas and electric cur
rent is greater than under former
conditions.
II was asked recently why our cur
rent sales were so large when there
were no bars at night for the men to
frequent. My guess was that the men
who formerly spent the evening at the
bars now stayed at home, sat up late
at night reading and drinking root
beer and so more than made up for
the heretofore legalized liquor con-
sumption by maintaining the stand
ard of demand for electric current.
Denver has never been so much alive.
Buildings are going up on all avail
able sites, the banks report increases
in deposits and earnings and We ex-
pect this year one Of the largest tour
list seasons IN our history"

Good weather is always supposed to

because it encourages the conserva-

favors the Democrats because the

Interesting Accounts Taken
From Diary of the Late
c. M. Sloyton


Wehad good bed and slept well
last night Thoughts of home filled
my mind, even when asleep, and in
dreams l was there and surrounded
by loved ones, enjoying the pleasures
and comforts of my own dear family.
But on waking up heard the order to
be ready to march at daylight, while
large drops of rain fell on our wa
gon cover above US, reminding US of
the unpleasantness of cooking and
eating in the rain. 1t anyone wishes
to eat under trying circumstances, let
them sit down and do so in the rain
as we did that morning. We sat and
stood around until 1920, before or
ders came to start We then hauled
out, the supply trains going ahead;
then division headquarters teams and
ours in the rear. We were guarded
by the Tenth Tennessee cavalry. We
have a good pike to march on; the
new wagons are empty and the others
lightly loaded, so we can ride when
ever we wish, which is most of the
time, as it is rainy and muddy out of
doors. The country is generally level
and most of the plantations are large
and prosperous looking. They do
not seem to have suffered severely
from the war, except In the vicinity
of the towns. About one o'clock we
met train of government and ref
. ugee wagons loaded with men, wom-
en- and children, black and white;
household goods, cotton and few
government stores, all flying from the
vicinity Of the armies. "A wagon
tongue broke, and we put in a new
one in the rain. At five O'clock we
came in sight of Franklin, Tenn. but
it took us two and one-half hours to
ford a river, go through the town
and out a mile to encamp. A late
freshet had carried away al. the
bridges on our route, so we had to
ford all the streams. Fording riv-
er with green mules to handle. after
dark, is more pleasant to Think of
and talk about than to perform. We
heard cannonading just before dark
ness set in. Have made twenty miles
today.

CONTEST
 FOR WATER RIGHTS
Wyoming and Colorado Both Lay
 Claim to Laramie River

Washington, Dec. 15.-Conflicting claims of many western states to wa tes from interstate rivers, for irriga- ton purposes, are involved in the contest between Wyoming and Colo ado for tho waters of the Laramie river. The stream, rising at the very crest of the North American conti- nent in Colorado. flows through southern Wyoming. Great land areas arc involved in the irrigation pro- jccts which depend upon it's waters
 Wyoming sued Colorado in 1911, under the supreme courts extraordi- nary jurisdiction in suits between sov- ereign states, to enjoln proposed di- version in Colorado of Laramie river water for the Greeley-Poudre irriga- tion project of 125. 900 acres north of Greeley. Colorado asked dismissal of Wyoming's suit, asserting prior water rights in order to complete the pre-

tentious irrigation project, including a tunnel two and one half miles long piercing the Green mountains.
 Involved in the litigation were questions of states rights to water of interstate rivers. development of 125,- 900 acres of land in Colorado and more than 100000 in Wyoming, with property interests estimated between s5o.o0O, 900 and $10O,0o0,oO0 and also those of about 10000 residents in the respective districts.
 Relying upon the legal doctrine off riparian rights-water rights of lands bordering upon streams-Wy- orning contended that, to develop the new wheatland, Lakes Hattie and James and other irrigation projects, Colorado should not-be allowed to di- vert any water from the Laramie and that it's waters should be allowed to run as at present. That the Greeley Poudre diversion would take one third of the Laramie's present flow was contended by Wyoming.
 Colorado, relying upon the "arid section" doctrine of priority of ap- propriation in fixing irrigation wa ter rights (not in vogue in Wyonning) maintained a sovereign right to take any quantity of water desired arising within Colorado-most of the Lara l mics flow originating in Colorado's 1 snoW-clad mountains-and also con- 1 tended that the Greeley-Poudre pro- 1 ject was begun before the Wyoming E 1 projects. Colorado asseted the right ] to divert about 91.000 'acre feet of
 water, maintaining that there would

 The Greelcy-Poudre project in Weld and Larimer counties, Colorado, was organized in 1902 and construc- ton began in 1909 at a cost already of $1.825, 900 with outstanding bonds of $2,700,OOO. It includes the cities of Greeley, Fort Collins, Longmont, Eaton and Loveland, in one of the richest irrigated valleys in the coun try, including sugar beet, potato, wheat and other agricultural and ranch lands. Construction work was reduced and bond sales impeded by Wycming's suit.
 The Wyoming projects, largely pro- noted by Wyoming residents and Chi cagO and Pennsylvania capitalists through the Wyoming water company and Wyoming Development company, comprise about 100000 acres and in volve investment Of about 2O,0OO,- 900, in Albany Goshen, Laramie and South Platte counties on what are known as the Laramie Plains,' near Laramie City. Hay and Alfalfa are their principal crops.
 That the Greeley-Poudre diversion of e1,0O0 acre feet is "reasonable' use by Colorado of it's own waters was contended by Colorado. asserting priority of five to six years of the Colorado project over the new Wy oming projects, and contendipg that the duty of water-its most produc- tive use-should operate in Colorado's favor for use of the Laramie's Wa ters on Colorados rich. diversified farming soil against Comparative waste" in developing Wyoming hay and alfalfa land.
