The visit of the Pittsburgh Chamber
of Commerce committee here to-day
recalled the days when the Pitts
burghers descended in force on the
Capitol to demand a change in the
form of government. Then they came
with bands and banners and argu-
ments which attracted statewide at
tention. Pittsburgh led the fight in
this State for the small council and
was the first municipality to get it,
Now all but Philadelphia have that
system.

changed your gloom into Joy. Would
you not be grateful to that woman?
But suppose that instead of merely
money that you had lost, instead of
merely losing your last dollar in a strange
land, suppose that in course of your
life you had lost those things which
money cannot buy. Suppose you had
lost your health. your happiness, your
peace of mind. your self-respect, your
usefulness, your ability, your friends,
your faith in your fellow man; ay. sup
pose that you had even lost your faith
in God. and this same gentle woman had
been the means of restoring them all
to you, would you not be grateful to her
and thankful to God who sent her to
you?
Need 1t be wondered than that there
are multitudes of people who are today
profoundly grateful to her who has been
the means of restoring to them the
things that makes life worth the living?
And as one among that multitude 1 am
glad here and always to declare my graf
itude for what Christian Science has
brought into my life through the right
understanding of God which 1t imparts." :"

with a mild, harmless salts which re-
moves the body's urtnous waste and
stimulates them to their normal actiy-
ity. The function Of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they strain
from IL 500 grains Of acid and waste,
SO we can readily understand the vital
importance Of keeping thu kidneys
active
Drink lots OF water-you can't drink
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful In a glass of
water before breakfast each morning
for a few days and your kidneys will
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon

INVENTION WANTED
FOR BLIND SOLDIERS

here February II and 13, on the work of
re-educating blind French soldiers at the
Lighthouse of France in Paris. announc-
ed in New York last night that the COM
mtttee for men blinded in battle, of
which Joseph H. Choate is president, had
decided to offer four prizes ranging in
value from 800 to 500 for an invention
that would help blinded men, who have
also lost arms or legs, to earn a living.
Miss Holt said that many suggestions.
some practical, some absurd, had already
been offered in France, but that she
hoped Yankee ingenuity would solve
the problem.

Gayety-'NIajestics."

Entirely different from any Of the bur
lesque shows that have visited Washing
ton during the present season. Fred Ir-
wins ''Maiestics," with Frank DuMont
Lyle La Pine and Doc Bell as the head
liners, opened a weeks engagement at
the Gayety yesterday. All semblance Of
the cut and dried burlesque performances
have been eliminated in the new Ma
jestlcs," and it Is by far the best attrac-
ton that has been seen at the Gayety.
The merriment is so evenly distributed
that 1t is difficult to pick any particular
one Of the principals that deserves more
credit than the others
Frand DeMont as a comedian OF the
cyclonic order, never permits his audi
ence to wear straight face, while the
singing of Obliged Broadway" by Flor
ence Bennett, proved one Of the hits Of
the show. Others on the bill that deserve
complimentary mention are Grace De-
Mont MAY Penman, Nardine Grey, Flor
ence Emery, John Keit and Paul Cum
ringham, all Of whom make decided hits
IN their respective roles.

HOBEN TO PLAY TEAM OF,
 FIVE AGAINST ANY FIFTEEN

There will be ball practice at Fed eral Park tonight, at which every ball player and fan is urged to be present.
 Manager Hoben says that he will pick five players and guarantee to win from any other fifteen men who can be scattered about the field in advan- tageous positions. This is some con- tract and ought to result in his bluff being called.
 Hoben relies on Chamberlain to win for him, by striking them all out, and also calls attention to the fact that no one will be able to steal second. Cor dova found it absolutely impossible to steal second base with Hemmenway behind the bat. They tried it often enough to prove that there were no ex- captions to the rule. It would be inter esting to watch the trial tonight.

CUTTER 10 AID
 REGISTRATION
Unalga to Call at Canneries for the Names of All Subject to
 Army Duty

The Coast Guard Cutter Unalga Captain Dodge, commanding, is in port from Western Alaska points enroute to Valdez, to secure military registration supplies, after which it will make a tour of all the canneries to westward to register the men of military age.
 No mention of the arrival of the Cutter Unalga entering this port was made yesterday, as under censorship it is classed as a warship, but in this in stance publicity is desired by the of ficials so that the canneries will be advised of the provision made for reg istration.
 On the trip west, Captain Dodge called at practically all of the Aleu- tian islands and reports nothing un- usual going on in that end of the world.
 The Unalga's trip for registration will take considerable burden of re- sponsibility off the shoulders of the Clerk of the Court and insures the registration of hundreds of employees of the canneries who otherwise would probably escape registration. Owing to the infrequent mails to the west ward, particularly the Bristol Bay sec tion, it would be almost impossible un- der ordinary circumstances to get the necessary registration supplies to these points before the end of the pe- riod set for the registration in the Territory, and in many instances the canneries would be closed and men gone before the registration officials could get action.
