Advice upon What to Eat
How Much to Eat.
(BY DIR. 1. H. WATSON.)

The poisonS in man are taken care
Of, if man will do his part The liver
and kidneys act as the sewage dis
posal plants which separate and throw
off the poisonous accommodations, #
given half chance. But many of US
should not eat meat more than once 1t
DAY. Eat vegetables, and what may
be called ''roughage" to stimulate
bowel action, such as baked potato
with the hard skin, Graham, rye or
whole wheat bread, onions, turnips,
carrots, even the much slanCered cab
bage, and sauerkraut. Stimulate the
liver into thorough housekeeping ct
least once a week, by taking a purely
vegetable laxative made up and ex-
tracted from May-apple, leaves of
aloe, root of jalap. into a Pleasant Pei
let, first made by DR.. r. V. Pierce
nearly fifty years ago. and sold by
nearly every druggist in the country
To keep the kidneys clean drink
plenty of water between meals; a1so,
if you wish to escape half the ills
which cause early deaths from kidney
disease, affections of the heart, rheu-
matism and govt, drink a Pint of hot
water a half hour before meals. This
with regular outdoor exercise, sensible
food, and occasionally Anuric double
strength) before meals for a few
weeks at a time, and there is no rea-
son why man or woman should not
live to be a hundred. This Anuric
stimulates the kidneys, causing them
to throw out the poisonous uric acid
which causes us to have pains in the
back, lumbago, rheumatism or govt
Anuric can be obtained at almost
ell good drug stores. 1t always bene-
fits and often cures the cause of kid

COUNCIL Will ABANDON
$4,000 DOG LICENSE
OBLIGATORY SERVICES CLOSED
German Baptists Joined by Members of
Other Churches in English
Service Monday Evening.

The German Baptists of Kenosha
We're partially repaid Monday evening
for the many sacrifices which they
have made in erecting their new church
home at the corner of Avery and
Huron streets by the large number of
members of other local congregations,
who united with them on Monday even
ing in the last meeting of the dedica-
tory services. The address of this
meeting was given by the Rev. D. w.
Hurlbutt, D. d., superintendent of Bap-
fist Missions in Wisconsin, in which he
tions were in the world "not to be
ministered unto but to minister" The
impossibility of man or church to live
to itself was clearly discussed and the
congregation was exhorted that the
church would serve its mission only
when it ministered to others.
Ministers of other congregations re-
sponded to the invitations to take part
In the services of Monday evening, the
opening prayer being made by the Rev.
l. W. Corey and the scripture read by
the Rev. d. Raffone of the Italian Bap-
fist Mission. Short addresses congra-
tulating the religious interest and en-
thusiasm which had erected the church
against all difficulties were made by
the Rev. Corey of the First Baptist
Church and the Rev. Axel F. Wall of
the Swedish Baptist Church of this
city. An interesting number of the
program, and one which shows the
democratic nature of the services, was
the gospel song by the italian children
of the italian Mission, bearing the
greeting of the church organization of
another nationality but the same be-
lief. This number well made up for
the disappointment due to the impossi-
blllty of the ladies quartette of the
German Baptist Church of Racine to
sing at the meeting. The beautiful
chapel was well filled by enthusiastic
kenosha church people who helped in
the collection at the close of the meet
ing to raise most of the money neces-
sary for tho German Baptists to dedi-
cate their church almost free from
debt.

MUNICIPAL BAND CONCERTS.

If music has charms and if music IS
great educational force, the people
of Kenosha are going to be municipality
charmed and municipality educated by
the city of Kenosha during the remain
der of the summer season, for the city
council by unanimous action has APP
propriated $3.50 to provide for park
band concerts during the summer. The
money will be equally divided for APP
preparations to the Community Band
for concerts on the west side of the
city and for the Since Band for con
certs at points to be designated by the

scriptions among the people in the var
ious districts in which the concerts are
given. It is expected that the plan
will work out so that six concerts viii
be given by each of the musical organ
izations. This will be the first sally
of Kenosha into municipal musical

with interest. Early announcement
will be made of the time and place for

Dog Slaughter Is
Made More Intensive
Fourteen CANNES Bite the Dust Before
Eight O'Clock and Police Seek
Unmuzzled Ones With Shot Guns.


The slaughter of unmuzzled dogs in
Kenosha became intensive this
morning and before eight O'Clock the
early morning dog head hunters of the
police department. had killed fourteen
dogs Later figures reported brought
the number over the twenty mark be-
fore two CLOCK this afternoon and
police officers armed with both revolt
vers and shot guns were out looking
for dogs. The unmuzzled dogs found
were slaughtered without any warning
to the owners or any enquiries as to
who the owners were. One dog which
had a, muzzle hanging about its neck
like a halter was killed by a police
officer and this brought a storm of pro-
test from people living near the corner
of South and West Main streets. The
police officer held that the dog was not
securely muzzled and he was sns-
tanned in his position by the chief of
the department. The telephone at the
police office kept up continued jingle
this morning while people protested
against the killing of the dogs, but this
had no effect on the work of the police
officers. They were ordered to keep
right on killing until every unmuzzled
dog had been killed.

Order to SholU Cause
Held in Allegiance
Judge Belden Sees no Reason for Action
in Battle Between the Council
and the School Board.

In the Circuit Court this morning,
Judge Belden took up the hearing Of
the order to show cause filed by the
City Council against the Board of Edu-
cation and after the reading of the
order by Judge Slater and an informal
statement of the status Of the school
contracts from President Whitbeck of
the Board of Education, the court an
nounced that he could see no reason
for any immediate action. The city
attorney declared that he took the same
view of the subject and at the sugges-
tion Of Attorney Slater, Judge Belden
held any further consideration of the
matter in allegiance. The school board
was not represented by an attorney.
President Whitbeck made a frank
statement Of all conditions surrounding
the proposed contracts. He told the
court that the bids had been rejected
and the checks filed with them returned
to the contractors and that the board
had no idea of starting the construc-
tion of the school until next year. He
added that when the proper time came
the board would follow the advise of
the city attorney, as contained in the
order before the court, and make de-
mand for the total amount necessary
for the completion of the school build
ing. He declared further that under
the opinion of the city attorney the
board would expect to receive the
amount asked for from the council.

School Children
Help Government

Richmond school children are
helping the government by asking
their mothers to sign the cards
stating that they will do all they
can to save food. This is one OF
the biggest parts towards helping
win the war and Mr.. Hoover, who
is directing the campaign to fight
the great waste Of food here in
America, is doing almost as i'm
portant work as General Pershing,
over there in France.
Because the Germans think our
food is so important to helping us
win the war, they are spending
thousands of dollars to hire spies
to burn up our flour mills and
stock yards, and yet we ourselves
are destroying hundreds of pounds
of food each week by throwing out
odds and ends, just because We do
not know how to use them.
Often times it is the mothers and
sisters who cry the hardest when
the new soldiers are leaving, that
come home from the station and
prove themselves enemies to their
own country by wasting sugar and
flour, and not even trying to learn
to save it. ..s.
Our government Is spending a
great deal of time and trouble try
ing to teach people how to stop
wasting food, and yet there are
still homes here in Richmond that
are either so ignorant or SO blind
ly selfish that they persist in their
same old ways of wastefulness, and
refuse to sign the card saying they
are willing to learn better ways
and help save enough food to keep
our soldiers and allies as well as
ourselves from being hungry this
winter.
But the boys and girls in school
are now helping TO get their par
ents to sign these cards, and soon
they will count everyone Stacker
who does not have one of the food
cards in their front windows.

Many Boys and Girls
Buy Liberty Bonds

Many boys and girls have bought
the Liberty bonds in this second
great war loan, and are very proud
to own them. Some have asked
their parents to buy the bonds for
them, and others have changed saw
ings accounts to the bonds, while
few of the boys who have paper
routes or means of making their
own money are buying the bonds on
the Christmas Savings plan.
Little Mary Louise Dillon of st.
Mary's school is one of the patriotic
children who have bought a bond,
but Mary Louise did not think she
wanted to be patriotic at first.
When her father asked her about
putting her money into bond, she
said, mo, / don't want to give all
my money away" But when she
found that the bond was better than
money and that twice year she
can clip off little coupon that
means dollar, she felt much bet
ter, and she even wrote her own
name to the application.
