KEEPS KIDNEYS
 ACTIVE WITH A
 GLASS OF SALTS
Must Flush your Kidneys occasionally if you eat meat regu-
 larly.
Noted authority tells what causes Backache and Bladder
 weakness.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder disor- ders 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 or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of lad Salts a tablespoonful in glass of wate: 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 clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine so 1t no longer causes irritation, thus end. ing bladder disorders
 lad Salts Is inexpensive and can- not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the Kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.

STEAL THEIR FISH,
 THEN SINK BOAT
Germans in Charge of Submarine
 Do All Possible Damage

Base American Flotilla in British l Waters, Sept. 25.-(Corrospondenc of | the Associated Press)-Four French | fishermen who comprised the whole
 crew of their fishing boat Quatre l Freres (Four Brothers) were landed
 here the other day by one of the American destroyers. The Quatre
 Freres, after being stripped of every thing of value by the Germans, in- l cluding the catch of mackerel, the l fishermen's money and food supplies,
 was sent to the bottom by bombs from l a submarine. The four Frenchmen
 were left to their fate. 15O miles from land, in a small open boat barely large enough to hold them all.
 After rowing for several hours a breeze came up and the fishermen l hoisted a sail, which spotted on the horizon by their American rescuers was thought to be a submarine and was fired upon. The marksmanship of
 the Americans was bad this time and the frightened Frenchmen hastily
 hauled down their sail and waved a
 white cloth Half an hour later they
 were safely on board the American destroyer where they were given wei CoAAAo All lAS 4OTIn or a &OOO meal ana dry clothing. They could not speak a word of English but one of the American officers knew some French and they got along handsomely.
 Ashore here the wife of a British sea captain acted as interpreter. She had lived in France and Belgium for many years and speaks French fluent ly. She had the fishermen at her house for tea.
 Describing their treatment on board the American destroyer, one of the fishermen said:
 My but those Americans made great fuss over us. When we sat down to eat we had about ten of them waiting on us. I guess they were trying to show us how glad they were that they hadn't hit us. We will never forget their kindness
 When the Brittany fishermen of the type familiar in moving pictures, were set ashore at this village they stood on the pier and gave three cheers for the Americans, 'Vive la Amerique," they shouted as the blue-jackets waved farewells with their caps.

poster, just taken down, which says:
voting Booth: Men Only"
"P. S.-Women's Place Is In the
Home"
All women in New York state were
Obliged. two weeks ago, to register for
war duty and will be conscripted if neces-
sary, as the government decides.
That is all right, but tremendous
campaign was waged by the women of
this same state two years ago for the
right to vote, but the voters turned them
down and practically told them TO go
about their business.
Their business" has changed with the
changing tides and now they must give
their services, as citizens, while being
none, though it take them out of the
home, into factories and wherever the
government sees fit to place them.
Another anomalous situation will be
that of the English Red Cross nurse,
voting for members of parliament,
though away from her country, while her
companion, the American Red Cross
nurse, stands mute.
The Representation of the People bill
of England has passed by vote of 329
to 40 and, altho it must pass third
reading, and go before the House Of
Lords, these are regarded as matters of
form, the latter having been shorn of its
powers some years ago.
Unlike the United States, England re-
CARDS her women as people" and all
over 80 years will be treated as such.
But war service by women has been
rendered from time immemorial. for
she who has produced the men to do the
fighting.
Therefore, is it not strange and in
compatible with justice, that govern
ment should be willing to demand and
accept all that one-half of its population
have to give, while withholding from
them representation in that government?

When You Are Stuck
Try This On Her-Will
Bet 1t Proves Effective

There's a pretty considerable sprink-
ling of gents who are at a loss as to
what to say to her, occasionally.
Sometimes the occasion arises early in
the morning, when there's urgent neces-
sity to draw her attention away from
the prevailing odor of cloves, or coffee
beans, or mint.
On other occasions there's natural
soul pressure that inspires verbal express
sion of her qualities.
To all such gents, we contribute the
following speech by q member of the
Florida legislature when the bill for wo-
man suffrage was up.
Commit it to memory, and if it doesn't
get her, nothing remains but to trust in
the Lord and take what's coming to you
When God made woman He sent His angel
messengers thruout all the starlit realms OF
space TO gather all there was of beauty. bright
ness, enchantment and divinity When those an
gels had returned from their harvesting OF beauty
and laid their glittering burdens at His feet
He began in their presence the work Of fashion
ing her.
He wrought with the gold and glow OF the
star-shining glories Of rainbow's hues and the
palld silver OF a southern moon.
He wrought with crimson perfume that
swooned in the roses rubbed heart. with pure.
sweet snow a-glsten from the lily's white crest
and the fires and flames that like flashes leap
from the jewels depth.
Then giancing deep into His own bosom, He
took the love which cleaned there like some rare
pearl beneath the wind-kissed waves OF sum-
mer sea, made this into human form, and all
heaven bowed It's head and yelled its face. for lol
He had wrought woman
We have no hesitation in saying that
this detailed account of woman's creation
may touch the spot, when that old rib
story would be completely ineficacious,
even dangerous.
