he opened court, disposed of Ii cases
and closed the morning session in just

Bailiff Joe Nobriga, who has seen
many sessions in action, declares it
is the best time made yet for so many
cases. Only four cases were con-
tinued. ..... r.. -,
my policy will be few continu-
ances," declared Sheldon after court.
"Of course, / realize from consider
able work done here at the defending
bench that it is often impossible to
go to trial with a. case the first time
it is called, especially when counsel is
retained in court by defendants, and
upon suitable reasons ! shall always
recommend one continuance when re-
quested and l think this will be
granted by Judge Monsarrat"
Sheldon states also that he favors
quick disposition of cases, but
would rather grant a little longer post
ponement in some cases rather than to
have them continually appearing on
the police calendar.

Is THE CAUSE OF
RHEUMATISM, LUMBAG0
AND GOVT? -
icy Valentine Mott Pierce, M. d.

ley Valentine Mott Pierce, M. d.
Ever since Scheele in 1875 discover
ed that uric acid was present in the
system, scientific men have been max
ing experimental investigations and 1t
is the almost universal opinion OF our
best medical men that the presence
of uric acid in the system in excess is
the cause of rheumatism and govt.
When the urate salts are precipitated
out Of the blood into the solid tissue
structure the person suffers from govt
and rheumatism in the muscles and
joints, or suffers from lumbago and
pain in the back muscles. The first
aim of the sufferer should be to get
rid of the uric acid, which, in excess,
is a poison. and to do this 1t is well
to drink about pint of hot water
morning and night-get tablets Of
Anuric double strength) at the near
est drug store and take them before
meals regularly Anuric will do no
harm to the system and will carry off
the uric acid by stimulating the kid
neys. Then tincture iodine may be
painted over the swellings, or in more
severe cases hot linseed poultices may
be applied to soothe the local symp-
toms. But most important is it for
the sufferer to abstain from meat. to
diet, drink only lemonade or hot water,
and take Anurie for considerable
time as it causes a drainage outward
of the uric acid and is many times
more potent than lithia and usually
one finds that it dissolves uric acid
as hot water does sugar.-Adv.

children are subject is traceable 10
bowel inaction, and mild, dependable

tied these Islands before the
first explorers came from

commercial rush of 100000
tons of sugar and 100000

TWO EVENTS mark Hawaii
an Day: The Hawaiian Pa
geant at Kapiolani Park at 3
O'Clock in the afternoon and
A Night in Hawaii at the
Bijou Theater at 0:l5 o CLOCK
in the evening. Il
A NIGHT in Hawaii will be in
charge of Charles E. King,
whose ability to bring out the
best of the city is well
known. He has the assist
ance of the Kamehameha
Schools chorus, not to be sur
passed in the Islands. !
TICKETS for A Night in Ha-
wall are on sale at the store
of the Hawaiian News Co.,
Alexander Young building.
They are 81 each. A Night
in Hawaii will be one of the
few Carnival events at which
there will not be virtually un-
limited seating space, so that
it would be well for visitors
and townspeople to make
their reservations as early
as possible.

Flowers are Beautiful, but

Editor the Missourian: The Civic
League urges all citizens to beautify
their front yards. Is it right for me
to go to the expense and labor to
have flowers blooming in my front
yard for the pleasure they give those
who pass by and for my own enjoy
ment if that causes young ladies who
ride in motor car to come after dark
and take the blossoms?
Paul taught us that We must do
nothing that would cause others to
stumble or offend.
Will they wear the blossoms to wor-
ship in Gods House?
l have had them stolen every year
the children in the neigh

their teachers, and pick them as thev

strolling in the evening take a few
as they pass. Can you suggest a rem

actual service under the flag, the dis

actual service under the flag, the dis
play of the Stars and Stripes as a
decoration is distasteful. He knows
what patriotism means to the last
degree.
While the outward signs of 10y
atty, manifested by flag displaying,
should not be discouraged, neither
should we encourage the prOmis-
cuous Haunting of bunting and flags
as a decoration. How many of us
who attest our loyalty by wearing a
small flag would hasten to a recruit
ing office and offer our services to
our country? If you are one who
would, why not enlist? The nation
needs the services of such men far
more than it needs the wearing of
flags. The flag itself cannot win
battles. To uphold the honor of the
nation requires men who are ready
and willing to follow that same flag
in the face of an enemy's fire.
Let us be careful how we f1aunt the
flag. If We havn't the stuff in us TO
enlist under it. let us not try to de-
ceive ourselves and others by placing
old Glory on our homes, our persons
and our motor cars.
Better the man who is ready to die
or the flag and who doesn't carry one
nan the person who proudly wears
me and yet whose name can't be
ound among those who have offered
heir services to the country in some
way in this time of need.

AMERICAS POSITION

Many critics of our national policy
insist that although our entrance into
the war is necessary it is over-late,
that our neutrality was nothing but
the government of the United States
should have recognized at once that
the triumph of the Allies was of vital
concern to our own future. Moreover,
they declare nothing has actually oc-
CURED to make stronger measures
necessary than when the Lusitania
was sunk and America definitely real
lied that Germany was unfit for rule
The occasion of our entrance into
the war seems clear. We are going
threatened rights in commencement
a wholly sordid. material issue, since !
the rights of everybody depend on
everybody's defending his rights.
While there was still hope that the
security of these rights could be as
sured by diplomacy, we were justified
in holding off from war, regardless
of the moral blackness of the Lusi-
tania incident. The criticism here
again is that this seems to debar us
from any moral participation in the
final establishment of the cause of
the Allies-to leave US with a lust,
but not a noble or inspiring, war on
our hands. To such a contention we =
can only say that the fact that we did |
not come in until it was necessary to II
defend our own interests does not
necessarily shut us off from regard II
ing the larger issues of the war as
our own as well as the Allies. The
principle of democracy, which Ger
many menaces, is indeed the thing
whose defense ennobles the cause of
the Allies, butt is not the immedi- II
ate cause for which any of the Allies
went to war-although England would
like to have us think so. 1t was II
threatened in their own person when
hey went to war for it, and now that
t is threatened in ours we 20 to war
Tor it with as full a right to claim
t as our cause as the others have.

WHERE THE SALOONS ARE

According to the figures compiled
by the State Beer Inspection Depart
ment and submitted to Governor Gard
ner. there are now 1904 saloons in
Missouri. OF these 2,152 are in ST
Louis. There are twenty-six wet
counties in the state and eighty-eight
dry counties. Each year several coun-
ties are added to the list of dries. and
with the new dramshop license law
others are likely to follow.
The list of wet counties in the state
shows that the saloon districts are
fairly well scattered, with the ex-
ception of the territory near st. Louis
The counties granting license follow
with the number of saloons in each.
Buchanan, "a; Butler, II; Cape Cir
ardeau. 81; Clay. 4; Cole, 80: Cooper
Z; Franklin, 81. Gasconade. IS:
Greene, 80; Jackson, 51s; Jasper. II:

Genevieve. I6; st. Louis, 154; Warren
IL; City of st. Louis, 2,152.
The lists show the greatest number
of saloons are in st. Louis, Jackson
Jasper and Marion counties. These
counties have the larger cities in the
state. Prohibition seems to find the
large city the chief problem.
