To tie Editor Of tAc TelegrdPh:

is universal military service. Nor is
that idea the bugaboo it was as late
as a few months ago. Bishop Samuel
Fallows, of Chicago, chaplain of the
famous Iron Brigade of the Civil War
took very sensible view of universal
training when speaking before a Sen
ate committee at Washington the
other day. he said:
We never can be and never will
be military nation. The test of
that came at the close of the Civil
War when 1000, 900 men We're mus
tered out flushed with victory and
under the command of a man who
became President of. the United
States. There were predictions that
Grant would become dictator. In
stead OF becoming n dictator he
could not be nominated for a third
term and that great army melted
ike snoWfakeS in stream. in the
stream of American life. Univer-
sal training is perfectly reasonable
and imperatively demanded. 1t is
the solemn duty of the American
nation to meet any war conditions
that may arise.
Students from Princeton and Penn.
sylvania universities advocated a law
that would compel them to shoulder
arms along with the plumbers sor
and men of every walk. Their action
followed that of Harvard men, includ.
ing several of the inhabitants of that
universitys exclusive gold coast
Slowly but surely people everywhere
are coming to that view of it.

With all due regard for the proprie-

QUIT MEATS IF YOUR
KIDNEYS ACT BADLY
Take Tablespoonful of Salts if Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers.

We are a nation of meat eaters
and our blood is filled with uric acid,
says a well-known authority, who
warns US to be constantly on guard
against kidney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to
free the blood of this irritating acid,
but become weak from the overwork;
they get sluggish; the ~eliminative
tissues clog and thus the waste is
retained in the blood to poison the
entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps of lead, and you have
singing pains in the back or the
urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or
the bladder is irritable, obliging you
to seek relief during the night; when
you have severe headaches, nervous
and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid
stomach or rheumatism in bad wea-
Their, get from your pharmacist about
four ounces of Jad Salts take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water be-
fore breakfast each morning and in
a few days your kidneys will 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 clogged kidneys, to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it is no
longer. a source of irritation, thus
ending urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not ~injure; makes a delightful ef-
~fervescent lithia-water drink, and
nobody can make a mistake by TAX
ing a little occasionally to keep the
kidneys clean and active.-Adv. .

How to Make a Creamy Beauty Lo-

The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white makes
