A Real American

Mark Twain was steamboat pilot. He was searcher for gold in the far west. He was printer. He worked bitterly hard. All this without glimmer oi the great destiny that lay before him.
 Then. with the opening of the great wide West. his genius bloomed.
 His fame spread through the nation. It flew to the ends of the earth. until his work was translated into strange tongues. From then on, the path of fame lay straight to, the high places. At the height of his fame he lost all his money. He was heav- fly in debt. but though Go years old. he started afresh and paid every cent. It was the last heroic touch that drew him close to the hearts of his countrymen.
 The world has asked is there an Ameri- can literature? Mark Twain is the answer. He is the heart. the spirit of America. From his poor and struggling boyhood to his glori- ous splendid old age, he remained as simple as democratic as the plainest of our fore fathers.
 lie was. of all Amcricans.the most Aineri- can. Free in soul and dreaming of high things---brave in the face oi troubie--and always ready to laugh. That was Mark Twain.

UTILIZE THE OLD PAPER AND RAGS.

UTILIZE THE OLD PAPER AND RAGS.
The annual house cleaning time in the
average American home is about at
hand, and within short time the house
will be turned topsy turvy in the efforts
of the good housewife to rout every last
| speck of dirt AT the same time the ac-
cumulations of the winter win be con-
| signed to the public refuse field or will
be burned on the premises. Included in
those aceumulations will be, of course, a
considerable quantity of old newspapers,
old magazines, old wrapping paper and
old rags Hitherto these sccumulations
have gone the way Of all refuse; they
have been destroyed. This year. how
program, for the old papers and rags
can play an important part in the relief
Of the shortage in raw materials for the
manufacture of paper. There is a real
shortage of material, so the manufactur-
ers of paper tell ms; and it is reasonable
to believe that they are telling the truth
in the matter The old paper-some.
thing like $4,000 tons of it is manufac
tured every day in the United States
can be utilized again in the manufacture
Of certain kinds of new paper; and like
wise the rags. II, then, there should be
a ,vtdasuvaad ,aayann,,} fbrn,,nbn,,t 4ha
country to preserve these old papers, to-
gether with the rags, and those accu
mutations should be diverted into the
proper channels, it would prove to be a
great help in supplementng the raw ma
terials available for making paper. The
thrifty housewife, providing she has suf- |
fcient aecumulations of papers and rags,
assorted into distinct piles, can turn a
fairly pretty penny in the sale of the |
waste material to the junk dealer or to
those who are likely to make business
of collecting the stuff for sale to paper
Already great demand
has sprung up through the country for
these materials which formerly were con
signed to the flames. You might as well
be making something off the waste and
at the same time be relieving the strain
on the other raw materials of the paper
making industry The Importance of the
matter is such that the United States
department. of commerce has taken off
,ial cognizance of the conditions and
urges the turning of these materials into
commercial value.

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?

This question is asked every day.
A cold is really fever, not always
caused by the weather but often due tc
disordered blood or lack of important
food-elements. In changing seasons
fat-foods are essential because they
distribute heat by enriohing the blood
and so render the system better
able to withstand. the varying elements.
This is the important reason why
SCOTS Emulsion should always be
taken for colds, and 1t does more

rare strength-building fats, so skillfully
blended that the blood profits from
every drop. 1t is free from harmful
drugs or alcohol. Sold at drug stores

GLASS OF SALTS IF
YOUR KIDNEYS HURT
Eat Less Meat II You Feel Backachy or
Have Bladder Trou-
BILE

Meat forms uric acid, which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their eff
forts to filter it from the system. Reg.
ular eaters of meat must flush the kid
neys occasionally. You must relieve
them like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the acids, waste and poison,
else you feel a dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated, and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine is cloudy, full of sediment; the
channels often get irritated, obliging you
to get up two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste,
get about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast for
few days, and your kidneys will then act
fine and bladder disorders disappear.
This famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lthia, and has been used for generations
to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts is
harmless and makes a de-
lightful, effervescent, lithia- water drink,
which millions of men and women take
now and then. thus avoiding serious kid
ney and bladder Diseases
