Eating meat regularly eventually pro.
duces kidney trouble in some form OF

cause the uric acid in meat exciees the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic
twfnges severe headaches, acid stom-
ache, constipation, torpid liver, sleepless-
ness, bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; take
tablespoonful in a glass of water be.
fore 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
has been used for generations to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them to
normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.

NEURALGIA and SCIATICA

The one eymptom OF neuralgia ia
pain and it is unmistakable.
In large proportion of cases anemia
and debility are responsible for neural.
gia, particularly in women. To remedy
the neuralgia condition it is necessary
to build up the blood and improve the
general health and for this purpose
there is nothing better nor more con.
venient than DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Sciatica is nothing more than neu.
ralgia OF the sciatic nerve.
II you have neuralgia or sciatic pains
do not go to great expense for treat
ment until you have tried building up
the blood. If you are pale the chances
are very strong that the treatment with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are all that
you will require. Hotapplications and
liniments may be used at the same
time if you desire. They may relieve
the pain and temporary relief is the
best you can expect from them anyway.
The pain in the nerve is caused by
nerve starvation. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills give to the blood the elements
that the nerves need. They contain no
narcotics and are not pain killers.
They remove the cause Of the pain.

Use of Whiskey and Cigar
cites Is on the In
crease
SMOKING GROWS
AMONG WOMEN
Total of $160,990, 600 Whis-
key Tax, Partly Due to
New Plan

Washington, Jan. 26.-The amount Of
whiskey consumed by the American PEG
pie in 1916 apparently was greater than
in any previous year since 1909, accord
ing to the tax returns to the treasury
department compiled Wednesday, and
the amount of revenue collected by the
government on whiskey, beer and cigar
cites during the year was the greatest
on record.
While returns show that the tendency
toward prohibition has not lowered the
governments revenue from whiskey, Of
| ficials believe portion of the Increase
nearly $4,000 900 more than l9l5-is at
tributable to the fact that the govern
ment is at present collecting taxes on
all the whiskey produced in the country,
whereas because of extensive frauds,
such was not the case a few years ago.
| Consumption of cigarettes in 1915
reached the highest mark ever recorded
The tremendous increase-more than 40
per cent over 19l5--is attributed to two
main causes: increased prosperity OF the
country and growth of the cigarette hab-
it among women.
The number of paper-wrapped cigar
cites upon which the government levied
tax during the year reached the grand
total of 25,232 ,960,92s, as compared with
II 1895, 234 POS in 1915. These figures COW
er only manufactured paper wrapped Gig
arettes and do not include tobacco used
by smokers who roll their own cigarettes.
Records chow that the government
collected tax of Sl.l0 per gallon on 49,
355,l46 gallons of whiskey during the
year, a total of $l60,99o,660, as compared
with 24,549,2lo gallons and tax yield
of $I37 GOAL in 1915. Beer eonsump-
ton, according to the records, was 6l,-
las, 5s3 barrels, or l,S95,5l3.073 gallons in
1915, as against 57,s05,s69 barrels, or
l,79l, 9s1 $3.50 gallons, the previous year.
The tax yield on beer during 1916 was
S9l 1885; in 1915, $S6,70s,s0
The total revenue on beer and whiskey
during 1915 was S252, 70S,g35, as com
pared with 1928, 1894 in 1915. Cigar
cites yielded internal revenue to the1
amount of $3l ,54l 200 last year, and |
$22, 424,042 the year before, making the /
total revenue to the government from |
these three sources 1884, 250, 235 in 1916 |
and S246, l63, 9T6 in 1915, an increase over |
last year of $36,ll3. 239.
Monthly comparison of records dis |
closes that the American people appar-
emily drink nearly so per cent more wills
key in November and December than in
mid summer and so per cent more beer
IN summer than winter. Wide fluctua-
tons in the number of cigarettes CON
sumed from month to month also, are
disclosed, the minimum, in April, being
nearly DO per cent below the maximum,

FOR CONSCRIPTION OF
ENGLAND'S WEALTH
Union Delegates Urge a Tax
of rs Per Cent. on All
Unearned Incomes

Manchester, England, Jan. 26-The
British Labor party at its annual con
ference here yesterday Overwhelmingly
rejected a resolution in favor of imme-
date peace proposals.
The vote was more than three to one

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young--to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no need
of having sallow complexion--dark
rings under your eyes-pimples-a bill
ious look in your face--dull eyes with
no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en-
ioyed by everyone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.

AMUSEMENT NOTES
Bob 0ttn Funniest Man on Earth" in
Barre Next Week.

Bob OFT, the funniest man on earth
opens at the opera house Monday for one
solid week. He has some very decided
ideas of the mission of the actor or the
actress outside of their own sphere on
| the stage. He starts out with the pre-
mise that "the actor is one of the strong
gest forces in our present day conditions,
because, consciously or unconsciously, he
is constantly initiated by the public.
81 believe the man who is influential
in shaping public thought and feeling by
the sincerity with which he portrays
types on the stage is every bit as social
ly efficient as the man who provides us
with food and clothing. We are for
ever harping on the benefits accruing
to humanity from the usefulness of the
farmer, the manufacturer of necessary
wearing apparel, the inventor of i'm
proved machinery, the builder, ETC., but
why limit our needs in this close listed
fashion, Is it not every bit as impor-
tant, for example, that we shall laugh as
that we shall gorge our poor stomach
with lemon pie and have the proper cut
suit for the proper occasion2
81 feel that it is. my mission in life
to make people laugh, and if | can full
fill my ambition of making the jaws OF
hundreds of thousands of tired blase, sad
dened, over-worked, or joy hungry men
and women fairly ache with laughter,
then maintain I've right to go down
on the same books with those chaps who
are always getting Landed in the papers
and churches and schools and lecture
balls as being socially Efficient bless
ings of humanity the backbone of the
nation"

WATERBURY,
Good Speakers and Helpful Addresses at
Agricultural Meeting.

The meeting of the Dairymen's, league
and the Stowe Waterbury Cow Testing
association, held at the Center Wednes-
day, had good attendance and much in
| terest was SHOWN. The meeting was
opened by Fred Powers, secretary of the
| local Dairymen's league, the principal
! speakers being Thomas Moran of Essex
Junction, who is in charge of the COW
testing work in the state; G. A. Badger
of East Montpelier, vice president of the
county farm association, and County
Agent Forts H. Abbott. President NJ.
II. Moody of the county farm association
and others also gave helpful suggestions.
Mr.. Moran spoke more along the line of
the worth of the COW testing associa-
tions, citing as an example the one in
Addison county. Mr.. Moran thought
that the scoring of milk should come
more from the product than from the
barn. Mr.. Badger spoke for the county
association, the work accomplished and
plans for the future. The county agents
talk was much like that of the evening
in the town hall at Duxbury, when a
goodly number of both men and women
gathered. This meeting was in charge of |
Councilman Shonio OF the county asso-
citation and president of the town asso-
citation. Mr. Abbott had with him many |
interesting charts, which showed the |
work of the county association through /
its different branches from the agent |
down through community committees, !
there being 81 community chairmen in |
the county. He explained the value of /
the soy bean crop in the county this past 1
season, one feeding demonstration Just
completed showing its value for silage.
The cutting of the corn at the glazing
stage instead of milk, and the gain made
in the price of milk through the New
England Milk Producers association in
parts of the county. These three made
large figures III increased income for the
Washington county farmers. More is
hoped to be accomplished this year in the
home production of feeds through soy
beans. alfalfa and clover and the best
varieties of silagc corn cut Mt the proper
stage. Cow testing associations, commu.
nifty organizations and development and
better seed selection for potatoes, as well
as orcharding, are some of the goals to
be reached. The work as planned by Mr..
Abbott and .he executive committee is
well organized and this community seems
much interested in same. Something of
the work OF the Dairymen's league was
explained by Messrs. Powers, Moody and
and at the close OF the meeting
4 number signed as members of the
league. AS an aid TO the milk industry.
