FRED DUGCAN
DOES Big WORK
Former Local Attorney Per
forms Important Task
For Spokane Bar.

Attorney Fred S. Duggan, who left
Grand Forks about i've years ago for
Spokane, WASH, where he has a sue
cessful practice, has just completed a
very valuable and helpful work for
the lawyers practicing before the
Spokane bench. He has completely
revised the probate forms in accord
ance with the laws recently enacted
by the Washington legislature, and,
because of his work, is receiving much
commentator from attorneys. public
men and newspapers.
Mr.. Duggan was raised in Grand
Forks, was educated in the local high
school and the University of North
Dakota. He practiced law here for
some years, being associated with
Attorney G. J. Murphy.
Recently, Mr.. Duggan prepared an
article for The Spokanesman-Review
Of Spokane, explaining the new code.
He spoke of the Anticipated system of
procedure the attorneys had been
working on for years, and Of the con-
certed efforts the Bar Association
! made to bring about a change this
, year. The cod was completely chang
ed, he said, and the result Is a short
and liberal code, free from many of
the defects of the old law.
Fallowing the changes in the law.
MI. Duggan was appointed by Judge
W. w Zent, president of the Spo-
kane Bar association. to prepare a
revision of the probate forms. This
work has been completed.

MOST POPULAR CASH.

The treasury department announces
that it will meet the growing deinand
tor one dollar and two-dollar bills by
issuing greenbacl;s in those dcnonliiiu-
tions. Such action is authorized by
the act of March /, 1907, but there has
been little occasion for II heretofore.
The total amount of one-dollar and
two-dollar grcenbacks outstanding at
present is only S3,o00,O0o. Nobody
knows how maay Of these have been
lost or destroyed. The treasury still
reports every bill and every coin as
outstanding. if 1t has even been issued,
says st. Louis Globe Democrat. The
last report of the United States treas
ury, for example. showed 2S0OO,CO0
bronze two-cent pieces and over 21,-
100000 nickel thrce-cent pieces in cir
culation, although neither coin is often
seen. The tendency toward the use of
paper money has long been strong. The
estimated stock of silver dollars in the
country at the end of the last fiscal
year WAS 56S,27O.3l9, of which sol, ,S55,-
3S7 We're held in the treasury. This
would leave only 6G41i,932 in "circula-
tion." including all that have been lost
or destroyed. This speaks volumes
for the unpopulnrity of the cart
wheel" Silver certificates have prac
tically taken the place of the silver dol
lars. Some idea of the activity of a
one-dollar silver certificate may be
gained from the longevity table. The
average life is 1.01 years. The aver
age life Of n tive-dollar certificate is
1,S6 years. The United States is IL
"hardmoney" country, but the people
generally are averse to using the
actual coin. California still clings to
gold, probably for sentimental reasons,
but 1t is both iuconvenient and expen-
sive, for it does not pass at face value
when worn. The people prefer paper
money when they know it is redeem
able in gold. The more gold there is
in the country the less there is in gen
eral circulation.

SPOONFUL OF
SALTS RELIEVES
ACHING KIDNEYS
We Eat Too Much Meat, Which
Clogs Kidneys, Says
Noted Authority,
II Back Hurts or Bladder BOthers,
Stop All Meat for
q While.

When you wake up with bachache
and dull misery in the kidney region
1t generally means you have been
eating too much meat. says a we'll
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the blood
and they become sort Of paralyzed and
loggy. When your kidneys get slug
gish and clog you must relieve them,
like you relieve your bowels; remov-
ing all the body's urinous waste, else
you have bachache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours,
tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment. channels often get sore,
water scalds and you are obliged to
seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult good, reliable ply
sician at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a teaspoonful 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. com bined
with lithia, and has been used for gen.
erations to clean and stimulate slug
irish kidneys also to neutralize acids in
the urine SO it no longer irritates. thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is q life saver for regular
meat caters. It is inexpensive, cam
not injure and makes a delightful,
effervescent Whitewater drink.
