Uric

Ever since the discovery of Scheele in l775 that uric acid was found within the body-most eminent physicians agree that rheumatism is caused by it; also many distressing symptoms as head ache, pain in back, stomach distress, swollen feet and ankles, gout, etc.
 It was Dr. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, NY, who discovered 8 new agent -called Anuric, a harmless remedy that if taken before meals will carry of the uric acid from the system and in this way the pains and aches, the creaky joints and all the distressing symptoms of rheumatism and other maladies dis appear. You can easily prove this your self, by obtaining Anuric at almost any drug store, or send Dr. Pierce l0c. for trial package. Try it and be convinced that Anuric is many times more active than Ethia and eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar.

To Keep WindshieIds Clear.

There are preparations on the mar ket which, when applied to the outside of the glass. are said to cause the drops of water to run off instead of collecting and obscuring the glass. A mixture of equal parts of glycerin and kerosene is recommended for this pur- pose, and we advise you to try 1t. These preparations have to be applied rather frequently in order to be ef- fective.

By attaching one of the little spark intensifiers shown in the illustration to the spark plug, the electric current is forced to leap across the space be- tween two screws placed inside a heavy glass cylinder. The spark is thus changed to a static current, which does not seek for a short circuit, but is

Kennedy and Gompers in
Tilt Over Draft EXempti0r

Samual Gompers, president OF the
American Federation of Labor, and
Frank Kennedy, editor OF the Western
Laborer of Omaha, have been carry
ing on through correspondence and
in the columns of the Western La
borer little tilt regarding Gompers'
proposal that labor union officials
should be exempted from the first
military draft.
Gompers has been quoted as hav-
ing formally asked that married men,
widowers with children under IA, and
labor union officials, be exempted
from the first draft.
Kennedy, in his paper, replied by
objecting TO labor asking for special
privileges and then protesting against
other classes getting special privileges.
Gompers has written Kennedy a
long letter in explanations saying it is
not to avoid the performance OF mil
itary service that he asks this exemp.
ton, but merely that men who arc
retained by their organizations to
perform bona hde service to labor
organizations might be kept at home
to continue this service which he holds
TO be essential to the welfare of labor
and the country at large.
Kennedy replied "If labor can get
away with the exemption claims for
certain men, then the banks, railroads,
and all commecial institutions have
a perfect right to ask for the same
privilege"

Tallest Private Was Formerly
Captain in the Nebraska Guard

The giant OF the Fourth Nebraska
National Guard
That's what soldiers at Fort Crook
call Leon H. Davis, six feet four
inches tall, former National Guard
captain, editor, school teacher and
adventurer, who recently enlisted as
private in company D.
1t wasn't because the good-naturcd
giant could not have had higher
rank when he enlisted if he desired.
1t was rather because he wanted to
be with the dough boys in the
trenches where he coufd see first line
fighting.
Private Davis did not have to en-
list, He is 81 years old, but when he
heard the battle call he dropped his
newspaper work in town in western
Colorado and hurried to Omaha He
couldn't get into Albion company,
OF which he was commanding officer
in 1918, so he told the recruiting Of
hcer to stick me any place where
will do the most good"
Private Davis was editor of the
Albion Argus in 1918 He sold the
paper the later part of the year and
went TO Colorado to engage in SINH
lar work. Previous to coming TO Al
bion he was school teacher.
The tallest Nebraska guardsman
enlisted in the Colorado Guard after
making that state his home and
served in the Colorado strike.
He has done considerable travelling,
visiting a number OF foreign coun-
tries.
Private Davis has won several
medals as a crack shot. He has quail
fed as an expert rifeman.

Corn receipts in Omaha for the first

This is regarded as unusual for this
season of the year, as farmers ordi.
narily are busy in the fields and do
not ship grain. The above receipts
are almost double the quantity re-
ceived at other markets during the
same period and are double the guam

MORE MEN RETURN
TO THEIR LABORS
Carpenters and Bricklayers
Are Back at Work and
More Teams Are Haul
ing Material.

Carpenters and bricklayers TO some
extent began working yesterday
on a few OF the building jobs in
Omaha, but the building activities
have not yet opened generally. The
Reed injunctions which require the
employers and employed TO pursue
the normal course of business as it
was before the building trades strike,
have not thus far effected a settle
ment of the strike.
Because the injunctons prevent in
reference with nonunion workers by
the union strikers, nonunion men have
been enabled to 60 to work in many
places and it is this largely that is
making possible the resumpt' of ac-
tivities. Teamsters who have gone
10 work in the material yards are
largely nonunlon teamsters. Striking
electrical workers are still holding out
for their increase. Sheet metal work
ers are not going back to work at
the old scale, and the mill workers
are holding out for their IS cents
per hour wherever there is any ne
gotiation with the employers.
Speculate On Outcome.
Much speculation is on as to
whether the injunction procedures
are going 10 be successful in stopping
the strike troubles in Omaha, since
the injunction is only one of the many
methods that have been tried within
the last few weeks,
When the State Council of Defense
was created some weeks ago, COM
mittee on labor was appointed with
T. P. Reynolds OF Omaha at the head
OF it. Soon this committee decided
TO take up the strike situation in
Omaha and investigate it in an effort
to effect a settlement
Then came federal man, Mr.. o.
son, OF the -conciliation department
Of the federal Department OF Labor.
He investigated the situation for a
week or ten days and then little more
was heard Of him.
Suddenly it was recalled that the
state has board Of mediation and i'll
vestigation, specially created TO handle
such difficult cases as this. The board
was called into action by Governor
Neville
Both Sides Enjoined.
No sooner had the investigation by
the board begun, than Attorney Cen
eral Reed, ignoring the boards activ
tiles, attempted TO settle the strike by
enjoining both sides from doing any
thing but pursuing normal lines OF
business.
When the board undertook to go
ahead with its investigation the at
torncy general cnjoined the board
from further proceedings.
Now comes the threat of some Of
the labor leaders to appeal directly
10 the federal Department OF Labor
to send representatives here to in
vcstigate the legality of the injunc-
ton, and make other full investigation
OF the strike situation.

TEACHERS GET RAISE.

The board of education at its meet
ing last Friday evening raised the
yearly salary of about 100 teachers.
This action was taken after an agita-
ton had been carried on for some
time, resulting in public sentiment
demanding this action.
The Labor World supported the
teachers in their campaign for an in
crease in pay, and, although the raise
might have been larger and more
teachers benefited thereby, congratu-
lates the school board for it's action.
and sincerely hopes that the future
may have in store other material APP

members of this woefully underpaid
profession.
