THE NEWEST REMEDY FOR
BACIACHE. 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
to send DR.. Pierce, Invalids' Hotel,

LOVES BILLIARD GAME
Noted Player Also Has Decided
inclination to Painting.
Ora Morningstar Has Never Used His
Artistic Ability as a Source Of
Revenue-Has Originality in
His Methods.

Ora MorningStar, until recently
widely known as one of the foremost
billiard players of the world, was IN
certain for many years as to the pro-
fession he would choose. 1t was a
toss-up between billiards and painting.
and his inclination was decidedly to-
wards the artistic career. The result
has been somewhat of compromise,
for while Morningstar is famous as a
billiard player he is also closely
welded to painting. About year ago
Morningstar was compelled to seek a
more congenial climate for his wife,
who was in very poor health and To-
Gated in Arizona. This wonderful cue
artist is never happier than when at
his easel. His real genius lies in the
creation of landscapes in oil, and some
of his best works have received much
favorable comment at art exhibitions.
Morningstar has never used his arts
tic ability as a source of revenue. He
paints for the love of the work, and
his pictures adorn the walls of the
homes of many of his friends to whom
he has presented them. He may be
said to belong to the modern school.
There is originality in his methods.

was expressing himself very forcibly

New King of Reinsmen and Peter Scott.

Murphy's great record this year was
made possible by the fact that he
piloted the racing sensation of the
year-Peter Scott, 2:05A-owned by
Henry Oliver of Pittsburgh.
During the 1915 season Peter Scott
won the startling sum of $5O,335 for
his driver and owner. In San Fran
cisco the great trottipg stallion made
his best showing, winning $14,25O. On
the Grand Circuit the best Peter Scott
winning was $4,000 at Columbus, Ohio.
The poorest record turned in by the
horse was from the North Randall,
Ohio, track, where he won only $1,2S5
during the meet.
The greatest winning ever made by
a harness horse in one season was by
Lord Derby in 1902 when his total
reached $57,625. However, only $7,625
was won in regular purse events, the
other $4,000 coming through the me-
dunn of that Boralma match race.
Peter Scott's record made this year is
the next best, and all of it was won
in regular events. Baden, 2:05A, won
$35,700 in 1912 and all of it was in
regular events.

DEMOCRATS DANCE

PRESIDENTS ASSUMPTION OF LEGISLATIVE FUNCTION IS
 DECLARED MENACE.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1T. Senator Cummins yesterday charged Presi- dent Wilson with forcing democrats in the house and senate to adopt leg islation against their judgment, and told opponents of the child labor bill who contend it is unconstitutional that the presidential assumption of legislative functions was greater men ace to the constitution than the pas sage of any measure.
 There has not been a single inn portant measure passed since 1913 in which Democratic congressman have not felt the heavy hand of the executive said the senator. Those senators who see an invasion of state rights and menace in the passage of the present bii ignore the graver violation of the constitution exhibit ed every day during this session."
