ALL HAIL THE CAMERA. Now
come the days when the April show

sunshine. The doors of nature are
about to open wide and through the

hail to him!
Now will the Office of the art editor
be deluged with pictures of the ma

father in the back yard a-posing with
a rake, and of the neXt-door neigh

dirt in which he has planted pebbles,
confident they will sprout.
And some of those works. of art

Yes, and the apple trees in full
bloom, the old swimmin' hole and

hind the wheel of his new auto, all
will be recorded in a conglomerated
enthusiasm Of spfingtime art.
But let us remember this, that all
these pictures are pictures, that they
are recorded, that, good or bad, they
have served their purpose in giving
the operator of the camera a mo-
ment of intense interest in a subject

FIRST AMERICAN VICTORY
For two years the British and Cana
dams fought to drive the Germans
from Vimy ridge.
The invaders line held solid.
Came a day when news reached
the trenches that America had de-
clared war.
A young Texan-his name is not
preserved for history asked and re-
ceived permission to fasten the
American flag to his bayonet, and to
lead in the charge of the Canadian
regiment with which he was serving.
With the young American, carry
ing the Stars and Stripes, in the fore
front, the Canadians charged again.
The line that for two years had
been impregnable, wavered and
broke.
Who shall say it was not due to
the cheer given the Canadians, and
the dismay given the Germans, by
sight of the American flag?
The young Texan fell in the
charge.
They carried him back to the Ca

URIC ACID
An Enemy in Ambush
(BY DIR. NJ. C. LUCAS.)

1t was not until the discovery by Sir
Arthur Garrod, in 1S4S, that the
blood of equity patients contained uric
acid in an excessively large amount.
that much attention was paid to this
subject. Later scientific men learned
that in govt (also true in rheuma-
tism,) the kidneys do not work prop
erly to throw off the uric acid poison;
consequently uric acid crystals are de-
posted in and about the joints. where
an inflammation is set up in the near
by tissues. When for any reason the
circulation is sluggish, as in the joints
of the toes, crystals formed from uric
acid are deposited there, and one suf-
fers from govt; or. when deposited in
the tissues, one suffers from muscular
rheumatism or articular rheumatism.
My only medicine to counterfeit the
uric acid and to throw it out of the
system is tablets of Anuric double
strength). three times a day.
The pain in the back, 1umbago. pain
in the neck. creaky joints, stiffness in
muscles, have all been proven to be
caused by uric acid poison in the blood
and tissues. The kidneys soon become
diseas ed, then there often follows dis
ease in the muscles of the heart.
Kidney disease carries away a large
percentage of our people. What is to
be done? What can the ordinary per-
son do to properly balance bodily
health? The answer is easy. Eat less
meat. eat coarse, plain food, with
plenty of vegetables. drink plenty of
water between meals. and take an
uric acid solvent before meals for
awhile, such as Anuric double
strength), obtained at almost any
drug store. 1t was first discovered by
Dr. Pierce. of the Surgical Institute
in Buffalo, n. Y. Most every one
troubled with uric acid finds that
Anuric dissolves the uric acid as hot
water will dissolve sugar.-Adv.

Use Fathers Feed
Not only do they treat him with
contempt, he says, but one of them is
feeding his stock out of his fathers
supply of feed and paying nothing for
it. The old gentleman says he has
been dethroned; that his rights have
been usurped and that all there is
left for him to do is sit around and
take curses and ridicule from the sons
he raised to manhood.
He says his life is miserable; that
the boys remain there only thru his

BURNED BY MOB
Report Says Minister Lost Life

More Than 1000 Killed in
Clashes Turnout the Empire.
BY KARL H. Won WEIGAND.


Copenhagen. March 21.-Reports
filtering into Copenhagen from Russia
indicate the revolution had bloody
clashes. 1t is reported that more than
1000 were killed or wounded. Thou
sands were arrested.
The minister of agriculture, M. Kit

Even persons of means have the
greatest difficulty in obtaining food. A
hungry people is looking with great
expectation toward the provisional
government. which is confronted with
almost insurmountable problems re-
curing a quick solution.

anda declare the political amnesty is
not applying to Finland and that the
Firms are assuming an attitude of eX-
IRENE reserve toward the revolution
airy government.
The whereabouts Of the former car
continues to be mystery.
The premature announcing by Bonar
Law in the house of commons to the
effect that Grand Duke Michael had
assumed the regency is looked upon
in diplomatic and other quarters here
as confirmation of the Downing
street trademark of the Russian revo-
luton and as proof that the revolu-
tionists were unable to keep UP the
speed that London relied upon.
In his pathetic proclamation by him
or forced from him, the eX-czar vir-
tual1y admits his inability to lead the
war thru to successful conclusion
and abdicates in favor of his brother.
In short, Nicholas forcibly or volun-
tarily is leaving others to solve the
gigantic problems that confront the
nation.
Meager information reaching here
points strongly to a dictatorship by
Grand Duke Nicholas Nicolaievitch.

MAY END IN REVOLUTION

Details Of the trouble in the Austrian rechsrat last
week beginning to leak through neutral sources and
into the world at large 1t three distinct parties
have united in against the government.
These are the Poles who demand "A united and ndepend-
ent Poland not the farcia kingdom of Poland which
Germany and Austria have pretended to create" The
Czechs, who demand separate kingdom Of Bohemia;
and the Slays who demanding separate princpaty
created out Of Austras southern dominons 1t is not
conceivable that Austria will grant these demands If
she does not there is chance for revolution that will
perhaps destroy her. On the other hand should she grant
the demands it would be only for the purpose of main
tanning peace within her borders until her troubles with
the balance Of the world settled If she lost she
would lose little by having granted the demands and it
with her ally Germany she should win then there would
be short shrft of the governments she had created
The leaders of the three parties above named must under
stand this and realize that if their desires to be
grafied it only be when Austria and her ally have
been beaten If they win there will be small kingdom
left in Europe Even Austria will be swallowed up by
the German empire and this all she can hope for if she
wins If she loses with the demands of the Czechs
Poles and Savs granted she would still have some terri
tory left but she does not realize that in order to win she
must lose For these reasons it looks though revou
tion is at least a strong possibility.
