BEER DRINKING
DUTY TO STATE
British Brewers Grasp Words of
Member of Cabinet and Use Them
in Page Advertisements.
(By Associated hress)

| London, Feb. 2s-The Strength Of
Britain Movement" which Is the Off,
'cial title Of the organization conduct.
ing the prohibition campaign, is at.
tacking Mr.. Prothero, the new presi.
dent Of the Board of Agriculture in
the Lloyd George cabinet. Mr.. Pro
there recently pointed out that if the
breweries were suppressed farmers
l would suffer Q considerable loss, he
J cause they were now making valua-
Bile use Of the residue of brewery
grains as food for cows.
The brewers seized upon Mr.. Pro-
thero's words as an official defense
of their industry and with full page
advertisements they have been giving
widespread publicity to the slogan
"The more beer brewed the greater
the supply of milk" After quoting
Mr.. Prothero's remark, the advertise
ments make it appear that the con-
sumption of beer has become pa
triotic duty, since the more beer
brewed the more food there would be
for the cows ,and the more food there
was for the cows the more milk there
would be for the babies. Among sAe
bibulously inclined, Lets Help Save
the Babies" has already become
fscetious equivalent for an invitation
to imbibe.
The Strength of Britain Move
ment" has consequently attacked Mr..
Prothero in big type display adver-
tisement. It says:
"The brewers do not make milk,
they destroy it and make it dangerous.
The brewers quote Mr. Prethero, but
Mr.. Proetthllero is eeatradicted by his
own department # he will look at
Ne. 70 leaflet Of the Board Of Agri-
culture he will find that brewers wet
grain contains ane.ifth of the value
Of the barley, so that the brewer robs
the cattle of four-ffths. The good
farmer does not use brewers grains
for cattle; they are not allowed to be
used for cows that yield milk and butt
teer for Copenhagen; and the auth
orities on infant feeding tells US why.
The brewers grains make milk dan
yerous for infants"
The advertisement further says:

,lares that the use of foodstuffs for

Jacob Gould Schurman, President of

DR.. Schurman recalled how Wash

University of Pennsylvania in May,
1775-then known as the College Of
Philadelphia-in company with the
other members of the Second Cont

man, his Americanism and his insist.
enee on American rights, said:
"Hew inspiriting is the example OF
Washington to Americans today!
Once more a great European power
nenaces our rights. We are forbid

where we will on the high seas under
penalty Of being sunk without warn

ernment draws lines across the ocean,
which is free to all, and says to
America: Thus far shalt thou come
but no farther. Now we recognize
the restrictions of a legitimate block
Ads and the penalties of carrying con-
traSsnd; these are fixed by the law Of
nations, But apart from these limi-
4ations American ships and American
passengers have a right to 60 where

The same law which guarantees our

II belligerents are permitted to ex-

they not appropriate our territorial

WASH THE KIDNEYS

All the blood in the body passes thru
the kidneys every few minutes. This is
why the kidneys play such an important
role in health or disease. By some mis-
terious process the kidney selects what
ought to come out of the blood and
takes it out. If the kidneys are not
good-workmen and become congested-
poisons accumulate and we suffer from
backache, headache, lumbago, rheu-
matism or gout. The urine is often
cloudy, full OF sediment; channels often
get sore and sleep is disturbed at night.
So it is that DR.. Pierce, of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute in Buffalo,
n. Y, advises "Washing the Kidneys"
by drinking six to eight glasses OF water
between meals and then If you want
to take a harmless medicine that will
clear the channels and cure the annoy
ing symptoms, go to your nearest drug
gist and obtain Anuric double strength).
This "Anuric," which is SO many times
more potent than lithia-will drive out
the uric acid poisons and bathe the kid
neys and channels in a soothing liquid.
Ii you desire, write for free medical
advice and send sample of water Tor free
examination. Experience has taught
DR.. Pierce that oAnuric" " is a most
powerful agent in dissolving uric acid,
as not water melts sugar. "Anuric" is q
regular insurance and lifc-sayer for all.
