Why This Half-Price Sale Must Ston

Mark Twain wanted everyone in America
to own set of his books. So one of the
last things he asked us was that we make
set at so low price that everyone might
own it.
He said: Don't make editions to sell for
5000 or $500 and 81 900. Make good books,
books good to look at and easy to read,
and make their price low" So we have
made this set. And until now we were
able to sell it at this low price. But thing

GOOD CONDITIONS IN RUSSIA
Former American Physician Tsstifles

received in the asylums and hospitals
Of Russia today than before the war,
Notwithstanding the brainracking ex-
periences which hundreds Of thou
yands Of people of that country have
gone through during the last year.
This indicates to my mind that prohi-
bition of the sale Of vodka has been
, great thing for Russia"
This statement was made to q re-
porter by DIR. Philip Newton. formerly
a hospital physician OF Washington,
pow q brigadier general IN the medical
branch OF the Russian army. Doctor
Newton arrived here recently after
having served for fifteen months in
Russia-first as q surgeon OF the
American Red Cross and since Octo-
Der, 1915. In the Russian army.
"The prohibition OF the sale OF vod-
ka and other intoxioants has made .
better citizen and soldier OF the Rus
sian," Doctor Newton said. HE may
not be as smart as the English and
French. but he can do harder work
and better Withstand hardships. The
Russians make ideal hospital patients.
The manner in which they endure the
most painful injuries is wscderful."--

MAN AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS
AnthropoIoaIsts Have Discovered
! Many Interesting Facts That Have
Bearing on Their Relations.

At a recent meeting OF the German
Anthropologicaf society, Prof. Ed Hahn
iectured on human races and proper
ties OF domestic animals, dwelling cs-
pecially on such relations as are found
20 exist between the outward appear
ance OF human races and the races OF
mans animal companions. The hues
mainly occurring in the case of man
as we'll as Of domestic animals are
black, brown, red. yellow and white, q
remarkable feature being that these
external characteristics seem to be
connected with the whole OF bodily
constitution. A distinguished anthro-
pologist. Prof. Eugen Fischer OF Frei-
burg, Baden, on evidence afforded by
the eye OF mammals, considers the
Wilderness of domestic animals and
white man to be kindred phenomena,
nor does he hesitate to suggest many
other analogies OF similar kind be-
tween man and animals. According 20
the lecturer, humanity as whole, in
elusive of what are called primitive
peoples, has been subjected for some
time to conditions similar to those at
work In the case of our domestic ami
mails. The classification mainly based
on color may be replaced by a system
Of darker and lighter strains within
given race. Attention is drawn in this
connection to the Simmenthal oxen,
which. within memory OF man, have
become remarkably bright-colored. as
well as to the fact that the subse-
quent darkening OF adults points to

found too expensive for use In improv-
ing the farm roads. One or more OF
the following will, however, usually
be found available and within the
means of the farmer for surfacing his
roads and paths: Gravel, mixtures of
sand and clay, cinders, brickbats from
old buildings, brick-yard waste and
quarry waste. The material selected
should, however, be hard enough to
withstand crushing under heavy loads
and possess sufficient binding power
to compact well and maintain firm,
nard surface under all ordinary wealth
sr conditions.
Drainage and good foundation are
the first considerations in improving
road with hard surface. The best
possible foundation is good earth
road with a low crown. Earth Shout
ders may be graded upon each side to
prevent the surfacing material from
spreading, as In the construction of an
ordinary macadam road. The materi-
al used for surfacing should be placed
In uniform layer or layers on this
| foundation and should be given suf-
cient crown to shed the rain waters to
the sides. II road roller can be Sc
cured the material may be quickly con.
solidated, otherwise considerable time
will be required for 1t to be CONSOLE
dated by the traffic. During this proc.
ess the road should receive frequent
attention with split-log drag or other
means for smoothing the surface and
filling the ruts. On steep grades
where there would be tendency for
the side bitches to wash, this can usu-
ally be overcome by providing out
let's and getting the water away from
the road before 1t accumulates in large
volume. On roads where wagons will
not be required to pass each other, a
width of from nine to twelve feet be-
tween bitches will usually be suffi-
cient. The surfaced portion need rare
ly exceed seven or eight feet. There
Is no particular virtue In building a
farm road wider than is necessary to
answer the special traffic require
ments. The need or desirability of
moving occasionally extra wide or
heavy implements, such as certain har.
vesting machinery, over the roads
should, however, not be lost sight Of
A little foresight in the alignment OF
bitches, in providing ample width OF
gates, or of giving extra strength to
culverts, may save 2 great deal OF
both annoyance and delay during some
very busy period.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER B0THERS
Harmless TO Flush Kidneys and Neu-
tralize Irritating AcIds--splendid
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass It on to the bladder,
where 1t often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer Is In
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty In avoiding It.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
IL, because they can't control urina-
ton. While 1t is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this Is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
Of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so It no
longer is a source Of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive, harmless.
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands Of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts Is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have pleasant, efferves-
cent Whitewater drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.--Ady.

Settled That Is a good word with
which to conjure.
He who does not settle his accounts
whether they are monetary or 9th

Everybody is under obligation to
somebody. He owes money or he
owes something beside money. He

Reciprocity is one of the first laws

ment of life.
Alone, we amount to nothing With
others there is no limit to our attain
ment.
Many man pays his bills promptly
and forgets to keep his engagements
He is financially honest and socially
and otherwise dishonest.
An obligation is birding, no matter
how small 1t may be.
II you agree tor meet man at

your bills.
