POSTAL RATES TO BE RAISED
NOV. Q.

Postmaster ]. Walter Payne asks
THE NEWS to state that on and af.
ter the second day of November, the
Postofice Department will require
more postage to be paid on mail
matter. A letter heretofore going
for two cents must then bear three
cents postage. Postal cards, instead
Of one cent must have two cents post
age. Letters mailed i'm Paris or what
are known as drop letters" must
bear two cents postage instead of one
cent.
This raise in price is caused, of
course, by the enormous expense
the Government has been put to by
reason of the war. The appropria-
tions at Washington are not now
measured by thousands, but by bill
lions of dollars. Everybody must
help the Government, to pay the ad-
ditional postage cheerfully and do
not bubble.

Prospector Pete Shocked by Girls
 Clad in Trousers

'Never seen anything like that when I was a boy, by durn," said Pete the Prospector to his burro one day this week, when an automobile stopped in front of hotel and out tripped two spick and span trouser- clad young women. He took another hitch at his waist line and a heavier drag on his Missouri meerschaum, and conversed further with his mining companion. "Nope, never nothing like that before. My girl back in Mis- souri used to wear hoopskirts and all them fancy folderols, but never noth- ing like that.
 "There ain't no telling, though, what wimin folks is a-comin' to these days. First one thing and then an- ether. But when it comes to trying to dress like a man, pass. OF pal, guess we'd better be hiking for the mountains. Next year when we come in, there ain't no tellin' what we'll see. Giddap."

Perhaps never in its history there such patriotic demonstration in Kngman There thousands of persons out to show their appreciation of the boys who going to the war front The crowd attended the band concert marched in the parade and accompanied the boys the depot Those in charge of the patriotic program deserve great credit for the superb in which they handled 1t and for obtaining the Needles band which gave the finishing touch to theatre ady splendid picture.
 There was patriotic sentiment every hand-in the ar-pemeatng the entire proceedings. Of course there was some harity always accompanies large gather ing of people, but who should say that boys who are severng home tes dropping their individual affairs and joining the great Liberty Army should approach their task with long faces Let them make merry, and let's give thema hurrah that they will remember.
 task this going to war; that should require men forget all the happy events of their lives and go forth with the stride of galley slave. Who should be afraid or ashamed of the honor? For it is an honor for an American to fight for his country.
 The Liberty Boys were accorded every courtesy and consideration by Kingman people. And why not? The most that we can do for them is only too little Let's give the other Liberty Boys who soon will be going g grand sendoff and make them feel that hearts and our hopes go out to them If there any of the boys without mother sister relative to bid them good bye let's take them by the hand and say were proud of you, bOy.

SALTS F KIDNEYS
 OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to fusa Kidneys and neutral ize irritating acids-splendid
 for system.

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 it often remains to irritate and infame, causing burning, scalding sensation, 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 a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control urinatioa. While it is extremely annoying and some times very painful, this is really one Of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take a table spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids ia the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary or gans which then act normally again.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. lad Salts is splen- did for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have a pleasant, effervescent Whitewater drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble.
