Am Antidote for
 Uric Acid Poison
(By DIR, L. c. BABcocK)

N0y D3AY A% Y. oA0SoOAJ
 There is @ process going on within the body which often peisens us, It is something like the s4sFy Of the snake being able ta kill itself with it's own peisens. This is the formation Of uric acid in excess within the body, It is a waste product which takes place in the liver. This poisonous uric acid is then passed ea te tha kidneys, which act as & filter to pass sR and sxeFete this poi seR. If the kidneys are eiegged Hp, inactive, the peisea degeaFeates ths organs and eaases kidney disease. If it is deposited in the tissues, around the joints of the body, it causes rheuma- tisn or geut. -
 Consequently we must de everything te throw off this uric acid peiseR, and simple methods are best. Flush the kidneys by drinking plenty Of water between meals; a pint of hot water, morning and night is splendid. Take Anuric (doubIe strength9 three times a day for, awhile, and get the kidneys to working by flushing out this poison. That painful affliction, known as gout, as well as muscular rheumatism, is caused by the uric acid crystals being deposited in the big toes or tissues. The man who uses his brain, perhaps over-taxing his nervous energy will suffer fits of "blues," depression, head ache, sieeplessness. loss of memory. all due to the poison of uric acid. The man who does physical work, using his muscles, occasionally complains Of slug gishness, muscular tired feeling, mus cular stiffness pr aches, neuraagiic winges-symptouas all due to this uric acid accumulation. In every case I advise hot water, and Annric taken three times daily-a simple, safe rem edy, which is to be had at almost iexerv arug gstore.-AdA.

Farms Surface
 Sinking Inch by
 Inch Every Year

Chester. England, May 18-Farm- CTS in a large area of Cheshire have their work complicated by the fact that the surface of their farms is steadily sinking at rate reaching in many places several inches yearly.
 This subsistence occurs in the dis tfiet of the great salt mines. The salt deposits are about 400 feet be- low the surface and there is every where at this depth a total thickness of at least 206 feet of salt, The grad uai removal of the salt is the cause of the subsistence of the land.
 The salt is mined by means oi pumps Water is allowed to flow in- ts the salt beds, where, it becomes sat- Hfated with salt. In this condition ii is pumped to the surface and fresh water flows in to take it's place, The subsistence of the surface is most marked in the immediate vicinity oi each pumping center.

This Used To Be Peace Day
 Throughout the World

A sad smile must come over the faces of these who reflect that May Is used te be celebrated all over the ci- date is the<aHHivefsafy of the first h. teFnatieaa1 Peace Conference at the Hague. This first meeting which world peace, was held in 1899. Alas, what has come of it all
 On this side of the Atlantic the day was observed especially by the Amer jean Peace Society which was erga- mixed ia May, 1928, and which had greWn in strength and influence un- til the outbreak of the present war As late as 1913 the nations of Europe joined in peace celebrations, exchang- ed telegramS and all that sort ot thing. The Kaiser himself was said te be leaning toward international ar bitratien, although he made no se- cret of the fact that he was not re- laxing his preparations for war. One of the most ardent workers for peace has been Andrew Carnegie, who gave a fund of s10,090,000 to be used in the interests of international peace and who also donated the greater part of the sum that was necessary to build the Peace Palace at the Hague. It is interesting to note ir this connection that the British Peace Society would have celebrated its one hundFedth anniversary last year, ii there had been any members left tc celebrate and if said members had the hardihood to try to celebrate under the conditions.

JAPANESE ONLY VAGUELY GRASP
 PARTY POLITICS
Recent Election in Which Constitutiona1ists Were
 Crushed Proves Fact

Telsio. May 1S-The CenstitutieHa1- ists suffered a crushing defeat in the recent election, Revised returns for the new House of Representatives show that the government forces pos sess a majority of 45 over the opPosl- ton groups, Fine figures stand as fol- lows:
 Pro-geverHment; Seiyukai OF fo- litical Friends party. 1884; fefaucnl Independents, 49; total, s1s,
 ti-gevefnfneHt: Ke1aseikai 6f Constituencies, 1ae; KekuzaiHto, 36 Independents, 12; total 16s.
 Representative Japanese, quite apart from their political affiliations, are greatly surprised that the eenstl- tutional issue involved in the elections had SC little influence on the result Last year the Constitutional party had more than a majority in the House of Representatives, which was 3S1 members, but now it's member ship has been reduced to 126, a loss of 7S seats as compared with the House which was dissolved by Premier Terauehi last January: Ceastitutieaat leaders like Yukie Ozaki, ex=Faialster of justice, have been campaigning ln behalf of a development of democracy which would. at least, be attended by system of government based up>n paFties
 1t is true that Count FeFauehi re- piled by al1yiHg himself, temporarily at least, with the Heiyukai OF Political Friends party, thus taeitly askReWt- edging the force of the claim fer a form of party government: NeVeFtHe- less, the result shows that the Censtl- f11fi ior,o JiCfe- ,of n 6OfQat The most. representative explanation of the result is that Japanese voters only vaguely understand and pay lit tie attention as yet, ts abstract prin- ciples and that, refieeting Japanese psychology, they lay more stress upon immediate interests. By supporting the Seiyukai party the voters express ed their confidence in the present min isty which, notwithstanding it's beau raucratic organization, has not only committed no serious blunders but has under the leadership of Count Ter auchi, adopted a policy of prudent and statesmanship. In other words, the Empire has voiced confidence in Ter auchi in the present world crisis and has postponed action on abstract ques- tions of government
 The most influential newspapers of Japan voice their regret that the cleo ton indicates the absence of any po- | litical awakening. They predict that Japan will have a very slow constitu- | tionaI development The opposition press points out that the alliance be- tween Premier Teranchi and the Sci yukai party is merely one of mutual interest, that they really have noth- ing in common and that the day will come when ministerial crisis will

How the French Soldier Pre- pares With Confidence
 to Assail Boche.

French Front, May 1.-Two pages from the diary of French soldier who was a member of an infantry , unit during the attack on the German
 lines in Champagne, which began on April 16 this year, will serve to dem onstrate the feeling of confidence the feeling of confidence of the French ] troops in their power to beat the Ger
 mans. The extract reads: "4:45 a. m.-A pale light whitens l slightly the sky heavy with clouds

 rain. A shower has just stopped. The

 The two captains leave to join their l companies after taking leave of the

 men are stopping in the mud at the bottom of the trench or leaning with their backs against the sides: Some are sleeping with their helmets drawn
 over their faces. Others calmly smoke cigarettes. Many of them are young
 sters and their bronzed faces look
 quite boyish while they sleep. Two
 of them, in order to be warmer, cud- de up together.
 "555 a. m.-Everybody is afoot, rifles in hands, with bayonets fixed. adjusted.
 Far away, the sky clears and or ange rays pierce the clouds, which have turned to pearl-grey. In spite of the incessant roar of the cannon, a nightingale is singing just in front. '"The plain in front of us gradu1- ly, loses itself in the mist out of which flash from all points fugitive flames caused by the bursting of shells. "6:00 a. m.-''Forward!"

Then at a quick pace they ad- vance with their bayonets pointed to- ward the boche trenches. There is no shouting, not even of words of command. In small groups widely separated they go without a shade of hesitation. Each man knows where he is to go to and makes directly for his object.
 '-The machfne-guns cracl1e, bullets whistle by, shells burst around with a terrible tearing sound, emitting
 black smoke from which screeching fragments of steel hurtle through the air. But the waves of men always l advance, not stopping even when they
