MEAT CAUSE OF

If you must have your meat every

salts occasionally, says noted auth
ority who tells us that feats forms
uric acids which almst paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to expel 1t
from the blood. They become sluggish
and weaken, then you suffer with q
dull misery in the kidney degion, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
is coated and when the weather Is
bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated'
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
to cleanse the kidneys and flush of
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any pharm-
acy here; take tablespoonful 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. combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder

BRAVES SHOW SAME
LINEUP As BEFORE

BOSTON March 1.-THE same sterling
pitching staff, the same energetic in
field and the same snappy. punchy out
field, probably will be seen in action
for the Braves again this year.
There are certain to be few
changes, but for the most part the
Braves will be just as they finished a
year ago. Such solidarity of pur-
pose, bulwark of defense, and an
angle of attack have been developed
that to tear away part of the ma
chine would be to damage it badly, In
the opinion of George Stallings. He
made a game fight a year ago AMI
he figures he will be able to deliver
the same punch again this year
The catching staff again will depend
upon Hank Gowdy, the backstop who
played with such amazing skill during
the worlds series of 1915. He will
have as assistants Blackburn, good
youngster, and Tragresser. Ricco will
be given try-out, but is not expect
eu to horn in ahead of the others.
Stallings remarked a short time ago
that he had heard from Bill James
and that the pitching star believes he
can get him arm into shape for sea-
sen this summer. James was useless
il the last campaign, but was kept on
in that hope that he would develop
something. So far it has been hope,
but he will be given plenty of time to
get in shape this spring.
Dick Rudolph, Nehf, Hughes, Raglan,
Tyler and Davis are expected to hold
up most of the pitching. This staff is
plenty for most any club. Stallings,
in fact. is rated by many to be in a
position to give the Giants a stronger
battle for the pennant than any man
ager in the league.
Collins, Magee and Without, the out

WONDERS OF WIRELESS TELEG.
RAPHY AND TELEPHONE

Developments of wireless teleg.
raphy are proceeding with great rap

startling discoveries and applications
may appear in the near future. We

exploration.
Already privacy Of communication
has been secured by wireless trans
mitters and receivers tuned so to

lions of certain ferquencies alone.
They are sensitive only to electrical
impulses of definite wave length. The
principle of sympathetic vibrations
operating tuned wireless receivers
mas also been applied to the control

steering of boats without man

ment in this direction are practically
iIlimitable, and we shall probably be
able TO perform at distance by wire

that can be done at hand.
Still more recently wireless teleg-
raphy has given birth to another art,

Only a short time ago a man in Ar

The distance from Honolulu to the
Eiffel Tower must be 5000 miles at

RAILWAY SNOW FENCE

An apparatus to keep snow from
drifting on the railrod track has
been invented by a Minnesota physi-
clan who lost a patient last year be-
cause he was snowbound. 1t is a
new form of snow fence, consisting
of a number of transverse planks so
arranged as to defect air currents
close to the ground. thus causing
the wind to sweep low through the
railroad cut, cleaning the track of
snow instead of piling it in a drift
cross the track. A few sections of
this fence erected at points where
drifts occur, would cost far less than
the delay of a single snowbound
train, and a number of demonstra-
tions have proven the practicability
of the invention.

In every crowd there is always
somebody who is ready to yell fire. y
Then the panic starts. When order
is restored everybody wonders why
everybody else lost their head.
When President Wilson issued his
| war proclamation and called upon
the people of the United States to
conserve their resources for the
struggle ahead, he did not mean that
they should stop spending money.
He did mean that usless expenditures
should stop, but that was nothing
new. Business consists of buying
and selling. Certain kinds of bust
ness are fundamental. The building
business is one of them.
There need be no curtailment in
building or road construction. Let
both public and private useful build
ing construction proceed. Produc-
ton and handling of business mate
rails and public and private con-
struction work are fundamental in
dustries of the country. Any tend
ency to suspend or postpone building
projects is inconsistent with main
tanning our prosperity. The country
is prosperous. Building investors
should encourage the continuance of
their plans. Railroads should spare
no effort to supply the building in
dust1y with the cars needed to trans
port materials. Government, State,
county and municipal authorities
should encoprage the continuance of
all kinds of buildings. Road and
street improvements in particular
should go no undated, Bad roads
and streets are factors of first i'm
portance in the present high cost of
foodstuffs. Never before was the i'm
provement of highways so essential.
The lumber, brick, cement, lime,
sand. gravel, stone and other building
materials industries are basic.
Neither Government regulations nor
railroad restrictions should be i'm
posed unnecessarily to interfere
with them. If any action is taken
which results in the prostration of
so fundamentally important indus
tries there is real danger of sur
plus of unemployed labor, a surplus

MACHINE TO CURE DEAFNESS

The newest therapeutic machinery
on record is that now being tried
out in a French hospital to restore
the hearing of soldiers who have lost
it in battle. The machine is a phono-
garphic instrument which pronounces
vowels forcibly. These vowels cause
a vibration which acts upon the
sensitive drum of the ear like mas
sage, overcoming its numb paralysis.
A number of tests have already DEM
onstrated the power of the instru-
ment to restore hearing to soldiers
who are totally deaf. 1t must be
tried continuously for several hours
a day for two weeks at least.

There Is a law in the city of Pari
which limits the speed of automo
piles to ten miles an hour, but thi.
iact Is revealed only by an examina
ZION OF the city ordinances.
Certainly 1t is not reflected by the
manner in which some of the auto
mobilists race through the principal
streets OF the city. That there ha:
never been very serious accident or
the streets of Paris, that we can re
call, is due to the merciful interven-
ton and protection of a power higher
than the city or county officials. and
rather than because of any care OIL
respect for the law upon the part oil
the reckless or careless drivers OF
these offending machines.
1t is true that in many instances
fatalities have been narrowly avert
ed, and while this may be ascribed
to luck" 1t is not the kind of
luck" that always continues. 1t is
luck" for the driver who escapes a
deadly collision or who gets out of a
well-merited prosecution and convic-
tion for his criminal carelessness,
but it was bad luck" for the unfor-
tunate who happened to get hurt or
nearly scared out of his or her wits
in the accident.
There is no benefit in locking the
door after the horse is gone, and HUI
man life cannot be restored, or an
irreparable injury healed by an over
dose of care after the near-fatal &C
cident has occurred. To quote an
other well-known adage, "An ounce
of prevention is worth a pound of
cure" and the motorists of Paris had
better confine themselves to a reason
able margin over the ten-mile limit
now than to give themselves an
overdose of precaution when it Is too
late to save the victim from being
or killed.
One human life is worth all the
in Bourbon county, and
the automobile laws designed to safe
guard human life are as much de-
serving of respect as the statutes
against murder or manslaughter.
A prosecution of some of these
speeders in the Paris courts before it
is too late is what should be done
to teach them a wholesome respect
for the law. 1t is done elsewhere.

EVERY MAN MUST DENY HIM
SELF 1O5 LOAVES.

1t was calculated, roughly, by a
statistician in Chicago that to make
up the deficiency in the wheat crop
every person in the United States
would have to deny himself los
loaves of bread. The calculation was
inspired by the campaign of the De-
partment of Agriculture for decreas-
ing the use of wheat -four and using
more corn and hominy.
The present and prospective def
cheney in wheat as compared with the
average of five years is 189, 100000
bushels. 1t requires approximately
four and one-half bushels to make a
1876 pound barrel of patent flour. 1t
produces 290 one pound loaves.
