The Whitman County Taxpayers
League, organized early last summer
by prominent business men and farm
ers from all parts of the county, has
had a very salutary effect on the
county's business. A number of COM

to be the beginning of new phase of

The work OF the Bureau of Municipal
Research, and like institutions in Gin

wings are to be made in operating
state and county governments by
careful non-partizan review of the
acts of the governing boards, and by
giving the public officers the bene-

PORTLAND, Dec. 1S.-The week S
trading in the livestock market at
North Portland has shown much
strength. In every line with the ex'
ception Of sheep, here were decreas-
ed offrings as compared with last
week and the latter line showed only
fractional increase and not enough
to cause any consideration.
Hogs were steady to firmer and
higher during the week with an ex'
cellent demand all through the six
DAVIS trading. The market had few
offerings of tiptop quality, but the
demand was best for this class o.
stuff.
North Portland continues TO gel
swine shipments from various parts
of the west in competition with 9TH

here are most favorable to shippers

TAKE SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS
EAT LESS MEAT If YOU FEET.
BACKACHY OR HAVE BLAD-
DER TROUBLE.


Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in thei:
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel dull mis-
cry in the kidney region, sharp pains
in the back or sick headache, dizzi-
ness, your stomach. sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad
Won have rheumatic twinges. The
urine is cloudy. full of sediment; the
channels often get irritated, obliging
you to get up two or three times dur
ing the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoon full in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and blad.
der disorders disappear, This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lith-
ia and has been used for generations
to clean clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them to normal ACTIVITY, also to
neutralize the acids in urine so il no
longer is source of irritation. thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
iure: makes a delightful effervescent
lithia,water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active. Drug
gists here say they sell lots OF Jad
Salts to folks who believe in overcom-
ing kidney trouble while it is only
trouble.

Card of Thanks.

During our period Of trial-when at
flictions come that touch and sorely
grieve the heart-wo are perhaps most
appreciative of those kindly deeds that
reflect mans brotherly compassion and
love. Death has just robbed me of the
sweet young woman who so recently be-
came my companion for life. Her rela-
tives and friends of this place and other
points in Bossier Parish have antici-
pated and cheerfully met every demand
of the hour, and have been so consid-
crate and SO deeply grieved because OF
this untimely death that ] wish to pub
licly express my thanks for their kind
ness. I find the residents of this COM
munity benevolent at heart-truly sym
pathetic toward one bowed in sorrow
and 1 wish to assure you all that you
have my lasting gratitude. Gratefully,

In Memorlam.

Died, in Cleveland, Ohio, Sunday,
January 30th, Mrs. John M. Meaux,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. William R.
Sibley, OF Benton, both deceased. She
leaves a husband, three sisters and two
brothers to mourn her untimely death.
The sisters are Mrs. John S. Boggs and
Mrs. Eugene Cook, of New Orleans, and
Mrs. Wesley Johnston of Shreveport,
and the two brothers Mr.. John and Will
liam Sibley, of New Orleans.
Mrs. Meaux was taken 20 Cleveland
about a month ago for surgical treat
ment, and seemed bright and cheerful
and hopeful the entire time, but about
1880 o'clock that quiet Sunday evening
the Master called her, and she turned on
! her side and, with a smilefon her lips,
closed her eyes-to open them in
Heaven.
! The heart broken young husband of
scarcely a year, all alone in strange
city, among strangers, bore the remains
of his beautiful young wife back to her
childhood home. He was met in Shreve-
port by her sisters and brothers and
they accompanied him from that city on
his sad journey to Plain Dealing, where
they laid her to rest in our little Gem
etery u p on the hill.
Seldom has death cast such gloom
over an entire neighborhood as that Of
Aline Meaux. Reared in the commu-
nifty, later on she taught in our school,
and won all hearts by her sweet dispo-
sition and ready smile. Patient, tender
and gentle, pleasant word for every
one, and SO our sympathy goes out to all
her friends, but most especially to hel
sisters and brothers, and the dear aunt
who had known her best, and last, to the
heart broken young husband.
AS we noted the sheaf of beautiful
white lilies on her casket it seemed only
typical of her pure, white life. AS DR.
G. G. Woodbridge said the words O.
comfort to the large crowd gathered tt
pay their last respect to her they al
loved so we'll there was not a dry eye il
the assemblage, and one and all felt thu
blank that her death would make in ou
lives and midst.
: ''Dear heart, thou art gone
Beyond the stars of golden light,
Where pain and want forever more
| Are barred. God said to thee at night,
Angel, open wide thy wings and fly before
The great white throne, beyond the skies.
Then soft He closed thine eyes,
Those kindly eyes
And thou vert gone!" M. B. G.
