Amendment to the
Army Bill
AUTHORIZING
INCREASED FORCE
Rep. Gardner Gets Another
Amendment Through Aft
ter Kahn's Reverse

Washington March 22.-An amendment
giving the president a free hand to call
out regular army reserves in case of war
or threatened hostilities was made by
the House yesterday to the Hay army
Reorganization bill. Its effect would be
to increase the army by 10000 at stroke
of the presidents pen, without awaiting
action of Congress.
The amendment was the most impor-
tant change yet made 10 the House bill,
but, offered by Representative Kahn OF
California. il was accepted by Chairman
Hay and the House without debate.
Kahn offered another amendment to
create more reserves in the regular army
by permitting a discretionary one year
enlistment. Many members scored the
present long term and small pay enlist
ment. Kahn's proposed amendment
would allow men TO leave the army after
one or two years and remain in reserve
for the rest of the seven year enlistment
period.
The amendment was defeated, ll3 to
I0S.
Encouraged by the narrow margin by
which the Kahn amendment was defeat
ed Representative Gardner re-offered the
first proposition of that amendment in
a new language. IL was carried l28 TO
III, being the first defeat for Chairman
Hay during consideration of the bill.
Mr.. Gardner said this provision would
encourage enlistment and help to build
up well trained reserve.

SALTS IF KIDNEYS

Acids

Kidney and bladder weakness result
from uric acid. says a noted authority
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder
where il often remains TO irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding SEN
sation, 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
scalding sensation and is very profuse;
again, there is difficulty in voiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call il,
because they can't control urination.
While il is extremely annoying and some
times 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 tablespoon
full in a glass of water before breakfast
continue this for two OF three days.

IN BOSTON MARKETS.
Storage Butter Disappearing Rapidly and
Price is Strong-Egg Prices Firm.

Boston, March 22.--Current prices for
butter tend to restrict the demand local
ly but holders remain very strong in
their price ideas, for weather conditions
are still unfavorable for production and
there has been such rapid depletion Of
storage holdings that they no longer pro-
vide much OF a reserve TO fall back on
Strength in the outside markets also
tends to stiffen the backs of local deal
ers. The cheese market holds firm, not
through any lack of supplies, but because
of light production of new cheese and
the fact that prices abroad suggest
possibility of export business. There is
still very close clearance of eggs, with
prices firmly maintained on all grades.
