AN AMENDMENT TO
 PHILIPPINE BILL
TIME FOR RETIREMENT AFTER NEW FILIPINO LEGISLATURE
 WILL BE FIXED.

Washington.-An amendment to the Philippine bill, said to be acceptable to President Wilson, was submitted by Chairman Hitchcock of the Philip pine committee.
 It would provide that not more than four years nor less than two years af- ter the meeting of the new Filipino Legislature to be created by the pending bill, the president should withdraw the sovereignty of the United States and proclaim the inde- pendence of the Filipino people, pro- vided he should find that proper steps had been taken tt secure by peaceful means an independent Philippine gov ernment republican in form, stable In character" and prepared to enter into such binding agreements with the United States as the president may deem necessary for the protection of recognized rights and interests of Americans and other nationals in the islands The president would be em- powered to reserve naval bases, coal, ing stations and other property re- quired by the United States for mili- tary purpose
 The amncuresx would fartesr E ggai P 2, vide that, nuary Fl shes. piration of four years, the plSs aud should find that proper steps had not been taken to establish an independ- ent government, "or if he should find it expedient for reasons affecting the welfare of the Filipinos themselves, or the international relations of the United States" or if he should be un- able to negotiate agreements for pro- tection of American property, the president would be authorized to de. lay recognition of Philippine independ- ence until the American Congress should further consider the case.
 The amendment also would author, ize the president to invite co-opera- tion of the principal nations of the world to mutually pledge themselves to maintain the Philippine independ- enoe against any external force. That failing, the president would guarantee independence on behalf of the United States alone for five years.
 The amendment was attacked by Republican senators. After arousing the hopes of the people, Senator Suth- erland prophesied it would mean in, surrection and bloodshed if the pres1- dent failed to establish self-govern- ment.
 Senator Jones urged that the United States retire without entangle- ments when the proper time came to leave the islands.

 If Bladder Bothers You.

When your kidneys hurt and your
 back feels sore, don't get scared and proceed to load your stomach with . lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
 your bowels clean, by flushing them with mild, harmless salts which re-
 moves the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal activ. ity. The function of the kidneys Is to litter the blood. In "A hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active.
 Drink lots Of water-you can't drink too much; also get from any pharma- cist about four ounces of lad Salts;
 take tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast each morning
 Tor few days and your kidneys will act line. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and
 stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness.

UNITED STATES CAN
 BE INVADED EASILY
SIGNALS OUT IN MANY DIRECTIONS.

Washingt gton.-Tne position of the United States in a war torn world was described to the House military committee by Maj-Gen. Leonard Wood as like that of "a ship at set, with typhoon signals coming from many di- rections."
 We are living in an era of war" he said, "and gradually are accumu- lating most of the troubles of the world"
 Gen. Wood, who appeared at the committees hearings on the army ln- crease bill, repeated in the main the testimony he previously had given before the Senate military committee. He said it would take an army of q million and halfNto hold a line from Boston south. Should conditions at the close of the war in Europe invite attack, he declared, any of the more powerful of the belligerents could land 500,000 men on American soil In less than 30 days.
 A regular army of 220,000, fully trained and always under arms, with at least 2,000,0O0 reserves behind them, should be provided, he urged, to meet this situation. The United 5 i've my ne c1assed as fourth f1 hsnting efficiency, and declared it could not maintain control of the sea nor defend the coasts.
 While Gen. Wood and Col. Edwin F. Glenn, chief of staff of the Department of the East, were testifying before the House and Senate military com- mittees respectively Rear Admiral E. s. Griffin, chief engineer of the navy, told the House naval committee, con- sidering navy increases, of the me- chanical ills to which submarines are heir and of the problems of finding suitable engines for battleships and destroyers.
 Admiral Griffin said he believed no foreign power was outsripping the United States in submarine design and that, type for type, American craft were as efficient as any aftoar To show the condition of American submarines he read a report stating that they each had done from 1000 to 1000 miles of surface cruising and several hundred miles submerged last year. Their engines were available for duty approximately 300 days out of the year, he added.

BILIOUS, HEAOACHY,
 s|CK 'CASCARETS'
Gently cleanse your liver and sluggish bowels while
 you sleep.
Get a 1O-cent box.

Sick headache, biliousness, dizzf ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath-always trace them to torpid liver; delayed, fermenting food in the bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
 Poisonous matter clogged in the in- testines, instead Of being cast out of the system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes con. gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick ening headache.
 Cascarets immediately cleanse tho stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels.
 A Cascaret tonight will surely Estraighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep-a 10-cent box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. Adv.

VIII Seek Subscriptions to
Maintain Entertain
ments in Parks.
PROTHERO is HEAD
Only $1,000 Needed for Rest
of Summer; Expect to
Raise This.

To assure the continuation of the
municipal park band concerts, Di
rector j. Prothero of the municipal
hand has secured the official endorse
mon of several of the leading civic
ORGANIZATIONS to "A subscription paper
and during the next week will en-
deayor to secure enough money by
nopuIar donations to provide concerts
FOR the remainder of the summer.
Lack of interest of the part of sew
eral of the young women of the city
to cooperate with the park board in
securing the necessary funds by Il tag
dav caused the officials in charge of
that project to abandon the plan and
il was decided to secure the money by
popular subscription.
Saturday afternoon the necessary
petitions were drawn up in the Cham
Der of Commerce and it was an
nounced by Mr.. Prothero that the
sanction of the mayor and the city
commissioners would be sought, after
which contributions would be solicited
from the business men and merchants
of Tulsa.
II has been suggested that about
81 600 was needed in order to assure
the remaining series of band con-
certs, and those interested in the mat
ter anticipate no difficulty in sucuring
this fund in a few days.
The municipal band park concerts
have proven great attraction in the
past, and il is not believed that any
obstacle will be permitted to stand in
the way of the continuation of these
popular features which have been en-
loved by thousands of persons every
concert night.

Movie Actresses
and Their Hair

Did il ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has love-
iy hair, while the most popular count
their curls as their chief beauty? In
fact (ths is a secreD, many are
leading ladies just because of their
attractive locks. Inquiry among them
disclose the fact that they bring out
all the natural beauty of their hair
by careful shampooing, not with any
soap or makeshift, but with a simple
mixture which they make up for
themselves by putting a teaspoonful
Of canthrox (Which they get from the
druggist in cup Of hot water and
applying this instead Of soap. After
its use their hair dries rapidly with
uniform color. Dandruff, excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. The hair is so fluffy that
il looks much heavier than IL is. Its
lustre and softness is delightful, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adv.
