That When the Time

lBx ellison Gardner.l

Washington, d. c., Oct. 2.-On the
theory that in time Of war a nation
should prepare for peace. the admin
istration is grooming two distinguish
ed Americans to sit at the peace table
as experts. One is Justice Louis
Brandeis of the United States supreme
court and the other is Colonel E. M.
House of Texas, unofficial friend to the
administration. Such is the report, at
least. credited in we'll informed circles.
According to this report. Brandeis
cut short his vacation in the Adiron-
dacks and came to Washington at the
suggestion Of the president. He be-

EVEN THE BANANA TURNS
FOOD SNOB.

Washington. Oct. 2.-And now add
to the high cost of living the former
1y cheap and nutritious banana.
It is no grown in the war regions.
The. draft does not interfere with
banana plantations-in Cuba and Cen
trail America.
There is no embargo by those
countries upon shipment to the U.
S. A.
Just the same bananas are going to
jump, into the class with the aristo-
cratic potato.
The answer is. Uncle Sans need of
shfps for transport purposes.
: Three of the biggest United Fruit
company's ships have been taken for
transport service.
Each can bring 10000 punches of
bananas each trip from the West
Indies.
The United Fruit company brings
the bulk of the tropical fruit. There
is hardly any way Of making up this
deficit.

In other words, the eastern section
of the war map has been assigned to
Justice Brandeis as a subject on which
to make himself an expert. The west

The creation of these two experts
does not indicate the administration

ARGENTINA MAY NOT
BREAK WITH GERMANY

washington, Oct. ALI expecta-
tions that Argentina might break with
Germany have been dispelled here
with the news that President Irogoyen
is determined not to heed the action
Of the Argentine congress and popular
demand for action and will continue
q neutral course. His suggestion that
all South America determine her war
curse by a joint conference is not ex-
pected to bear fruit because a similar
proposal was rejected by all the other
more important governments some-
time ago.

VIII Issue Licenses
For Using Alien Patents

Washington, Oct. 31.-Regulations un-
der which Americans will be licensed TO
use patents owned by enemy aliens
or their allies were announced by the
federal commission today. About twen-
ty-thousand inventions and processes
owned by Germans, Austrians, Bulgar-
ians and Turks on file in the patent
office are affected, including coal tar
and dye secrets and salvarson. One or
more American concerns will be licensed
to manufacture under all the important
patents at least for the duration of the
war and perhaps for the duration of
the patents.
A special board, headed by j. Frank
i'm Fort of the federal trade commits
SION, will administer the patent clause

which authorizes the taking over of pat
cnts Commissioner Fort will be assist
ed by 9. H. Mcdonald, Wisconsin; Fran
els J. Phelps, Washington, and Edward
H Rogers, Chicago patent lawyer. The
last two are dollar-azyear volunteers.
Five per cent of the gross profits of
the licensed manufacturers will be
transferred to the custodian of alien
property, to be turned over to the Ger
man or other owners after the war. To
keep military and naval secrets from
reaching the enemy, no patents prob

the war on important war inventions.
The government win secretly avail it
self of the new process or device and
give the inventor his royalty or payment

of claims.
Many American manufacturers are
olfeady applying for licenses to use
alien patents. The federal trade COM
mission will not issue exclusive licenses
to one manufacturer. About one hundred
and fifty applications have already
been received to use the German owned
salvarsan patant.

HEAVY MEAT EATERS

Eat Less Meat If You Feel
BackaChy or Have Bladder

No man or woman who eats meat reg
ularlv can make mistake by flushing
the kidneys occasionally. says a well
known authority. Meat forms uric acid
which excites the kidneys, they become
overworked from the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the waste and
p0isons from the blood, then we get
sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headache,
liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness,
sleeplessness and urinary disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if
the urine is cloudy. offensive, full Of
sediment irregular of passage OF at
tended by a sensation of sealding, stop
eating meat and get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful in glass of water be-
fore breakfast and in a few days your
kidneys viii 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 the kidneys, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it no long
or causes irritation, thus ending blad-
der weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferyescent
Iithia water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.
