obedience to all orders, there is little fri- volity among the men. They are af fected, apparently, by the seriousness of the business about them, and are also, perhaps, awed by the magnitude of the preparations the United States is making for it's armies Every effort is being made to wear off this strangeness, to make the men feel at home in their new homes. For this reason the quartermas- ter department worked half the night before their arrival and had everything in readiness for the first corners. all cooks engaged, fires going in the ranges, and butter and meat on ice in the re- frigerat tors.

SALTS FINE FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat which
clogs Kidneys, then the
Back hurts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowls, get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region, severe head
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver,
acid stomach sleeplessness and all
sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and is harmless to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them to
normal activity. 1t also neutralizes
the acids in the urine so it no longer
irritates, thus ending bladder dis
orders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious
complications.
A well-known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.

BY Beatrice Fairfax

81 am a trained nurse" writes c. S. j.
And great many people look down
On me. Why is there a prejudice like
hhis?"
Trained nursing is a splendid and
noble profession. and most people of
common sense and intelligence rec
bgnize ii as such. Any other attitude
doward the profession which gives it
self over to administering to the sick
and suffering is a relic of the dark ages
when education and knowledge of the
simple facts of life were thought to
mark a woman indecent.
No human being was ever good be-
cause she was ignorant. Good she may
have been in spite of being ignorant.
But the woman who knows life in all
fts aspects is a finer, bigger, stronger
soul than the shrinking creature who in
conversation still disguises her per-
nectly respectable legs as limbs and
twho does not hesitate to display a few
1nches of silk stockings elsewhere.
Modesty and decency belong to the
individual not to the class or the walk
of life. Some of the finest women 1
Ehave ever met belonged to the nursing
rsisterhood. OF course. nursing is prac-
ttically essential to medicine and sur
gerry and has a distinct value in help
ing the world solve its problems OF
health and healing.
And If few silly girls go into the
nursing profession with the idea of
marrying a rich patient or a doctor that
does not mean that even those girls will
mot in the process of learning it, wake
TO respect for their splendid calling.
In certain walks of life temptations
are frequent-that 1 grant. The mani
tcure girl who works in a hotel barber
tshop may be subject to temptations and
'may be weak enough to yield to them.

would embarrass any department and
with figures, and Governor Brumbaugh
has assured them of support. The
chairmen will do all of the cutting on
the bill, and if they continue the policy
the Governors burdens in dealing with
appropriation bills will be materially
lessened.
1t is understood that the commit
tees will go into the deficiency OF
s29, 900 reported by the Auditor Gen.
eral and request some items and the
reason therefor. 1t is likely that the
printing bills will be taken care of, but
that the department will be warned
that it must be very careful. Whether
cuts will be made in this line is not
known.
Auditor General Powell last night
sent letters to the head of each de-
partment asking for a prompt state
ment of expenditures to the end of the
calendar year. The DaiN resolution,
calling for such information, and also
for the rock bottom estimates of what
will be needed to run the government
for two years, has been passed. 1t is
concurrent and will demand the in
formation. The Auditor General is
the official who will supply it.
CapltOl Hill Is COmmlSeratlnS WITH
the attaches of the Department of
Public Printing and Binding, who have
no chief and whose payroll was held
up last month because there was no
one to sign it. Chief Clerk Thomas j.
Bell was given the right to give orders
for printing, but not to sign payrolls.
The term of A. Nevin Pomeroy. who
was asked to resign when the speaker
ship fight started, will expire Feb
ruary s, and the Governor will likely
send in the name of D. Edward Long
to succeed him. Long will be the first
department chief appointment to face
the music in the Senate.
The States big printing and paper
contracts must be let soon. The bids
for them will be opened late this
month and business involving hun
dreds of thousands of dollars must be
taken care Of
The Capitol is also awaiting with
keen interest the appointment of a
judge to succeed the late Judge Charles
\. Brumm, of Schuylkill county, which
is causing more letter writing and
visiting here than usual.

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
We Make Our Own Places

She yields because she is weak-not
because she is a manicurist. AS clerk
behind the counter or stenographer
or an actress. she would have met
temptations and succumbed-not pc
cause of her profession, but because or
her nature.
The world had an attitude of whole
sale condemnation toward stenograph-
ers until very recently. 1t is waking
up to the fact that the girl who works
in a business office side by side with
men and on a sane basis of sensible IN
terest generously shared. is likely 10
lose her silly, cheap coquetry and her
sense of sex consciousness-or lose her
position.
Women who write or act or sing
or pose for moving pictures would like
to be accepted or rejected on the basis
of their ability to make good; and II
they are not-as tragically enough they
sometimes are not-it is the men with
whom they must deal who are largely
to blame and who ought to be con-
demned.
No profession can be condemned or
praised. The strong woman makes
something of so ordinary profession
as shampooing heads; she glorifies
housework; she is dignifed as DEM
onstrator of tea biscuits And the weak
woman does not amount to much; when
she inherits a factory of which heredity
makes her the figurehead.
Wholesale condemnation of one pro-
fession is as foolish as wholesale praise
of another one. The individual makes
or mars her own profession. So that a
woman's means of earning her ltvel-
hood be honest and open and dignified;
so that she trade on her skill and
ability and knowledge rather than on
her SEX no human being has right TO
condemn the work she is doing or she
who does 1t.
