THE NEWEST REMEDY FOR
BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM AND DROPSY

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are, weak or diseased.
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts OF the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains. heaviness, drowsiness. irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-
nate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones.
When the uric acid affects the muscles
and joints it causes lumbago. rheuma-
tism, govt or sciatica. This is the time

The Court House
That Will Be Built

We last week had-"The Court
House That Should Be built"
We this week have the same
thing with the Should Be-
changed to-"Will Be-"
The Commissioners came TO-
gather Monday, and proceeded
tuagree TO build a court house
Immediately.
The Herald over year age
talked of the court house Bacs
county ought TO have. and ad
vised the selling of the old cour
house and building the one need
ed.
We then suggested, as we die
last week, the buf.dingo ola double
decker ofices below, court room
and public hail above.
The building We suggested last
week, and that we got Mr.. Pier
sons estimlte on, was concrete
double decker, 4OxS0 feet.
We would indeed have been
glaC if the commissioners could
have seen their way clear to have
come up to those dimensions; but
they have done nobly as it is
having decided On q concrete two
stories 40x6O feet.
The people interested have alsc
done nobly in the matter of a
building site, having made up by
donations a whole block for that
purpuse, and gwen it TO the
county.
Having done this much, che
Herald would suggest nov that
the puNlic we'll be put in order
and presented to the county, on
condition that the court house
square be seeded down to tame
grass and planted to trees, and
irrigated so far as the public
we'll will do it.
If either the county or public
will then put down another well
o, the northwest corner of the
square, and put in twelve foot
mil. there would ALWAYS be one
j. working order, and Baca
county could and would have as
ene \ court house lawn as found
anywhere.
The building is to be as nearly
fire proof IS possible, as suggest
sd by the Herald. The floors be-
low and above are to be concrete,
and everything else inflamable
- much ~ possible.

DOCTORS FIND
HUGE LEAP IN
DRUG VICTIMS
Big Increase Among TombS In
mates in Two Years, De-
clare Physicians.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2l.-The spread
OF the drug habit against which a
vigorous campaign is being waged by
the New York state Anti-Drug League,
has progressed at an alarming rate, ac-
cording 10 DR.. Frank A. MCGUIRE and
DIR. Perry NJ. Lichtenstein, physicians
attached 10 the Tombs prison
In booklet issued by the two ply
sicians they assert that in two years
the percentage OF addicts in the
Tombs has increased by almost sew
enty-dve. Many Of these acquired the
terrible habit through taking drugs
to alleviate pain during illness.
The majority of prisoners, however,
blame their addiction TO friends" the
authors declare. They say further:
1.-THE profit reapcd by the dealers
in narcotics is so enormous as to war
rant certain conspiring individuals to
chance arrest Almost always the
addict is fooled When he buys a
deck sixty grain POWDER. he is sure
TO receive threc1fourths sugar or milk.

viduals have found that drug selling
is a highly profitable business. These

caine"
To curb the evil which DR.. MCGUIRE
and DR. Lichtenstein find increasing
at such an alarming rate, the New
York State Anti-Drug League is advo-
eating amendments to the public
health law. These amendments are
embodied in the Boylan bill which will
be introduced at the next session OF
the state legislature.
Recognized authorities on the drug
habit accept the Boylan bill as pos
scssing the desired requisites for cor
recting the loopholes in existing laws
by which the traffic in narcotics CON
tinues to thrive They do not say that
the traffic will he entirely done away
with If the Boylan bin becomes a law,
but they do assert that it will exert
so much corrective influence that at
least ninety per cent Of the traffic will
be stamped out.

men are known as go-betweens.
Some people take the drug for in
somnia. This is particularly true of
nurses and physicians. Such cases
have come under our observation and
treatment. Others take the drug to
ward off sorrow and care, while some
are compelled TO take it to ward OF
severe pains.
Most AddictS Young.
ut is 4 noticeable fact that most
OF the addicts coming under our treat
ment are young. 1t is not uncommon
to find boys and girls sixteen and
eighteen years of age who give a his
tory of having taken the drug for
two years. We have treated one child
who became confirmed drug fend
through the mothers milk.
Concerning addiction Rmone -%e
different races, we have ascertained
the following:
yellow race: Compared to all 9th
er races arrested for various crimes,
the Chinese are probably the fewest
Of criminals. However, those who are
arrested for the most part are addicts.
The particular drug used is always
opium and its ashes, yen shi.
White race: Newt to the yellow race
in the proportion of prisoners is the
white race. These are chiefly Hebrews
and Italians. The former compose
from thirty to fifty per cent of the
hddicts, the latter from twenty to
thirty per cent The remainder are
chiefly Irish. The drugs used by the
white race are heroin. morphine. opium
and cocaine, in order of frequency.
