GLASS OF SALTS
 CLEANS KIDNEYS
If your Back is aching or Bladder bothers, drink lots of water
 and eat less meat.

When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, Son't get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which removes the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their nor nal activity The function of the kid neys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kid neys active.
 Drink lots of water-you can't drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and 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 genera tions to clean and stimulate clogged kid neys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is a source of irri- tation, thus ending bladder weakness,
 lad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- iure makes a delightful effervescent Whitewater drink which everyone should take now and then to keep their kid neys clean and active. Try this, also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became ot your kidney trouble and backache.

Washington, May s.--Al railroad
employees whose monthly pay in De-
cember, 1915, was less than $3.50 IL
month, have been recommended for
wage increases by the railroad wage
commission.
The recommendations il adopted by
Director McAdoo, would, give the
workers 500, 900, ,00O in back pay to
January /, and would add $2SS.O12,-
71s to the payroll as of 1917, net in
crease of 15.021 per cent.
Wage advances proposed. however,
do not represent net increases over
existing pay, but are based on the
month of December, 1915, in other
words any increases which may have
been allowed by individual roads since
that time must be deducted. In some
cases deductions will almost IL not
altogether, cover the increases sug-
gested,, according to the report.
The roads themselves during 1916
and 1917 increased wages. an amount
equivalent to $3.50, 100000 If applied
to the present number of their en-
pldses.
"As to those who have received such
Increases, the report says, I'VE ad-
wise no other course than that the
scale be adhered to, for 1t has its
foundation in principle and not in the
compelling force of unusual competi-
tion. In no event, however. should
there be any reduction in wages from

maintain their complement of work

the needs Of the time, this end can not
be secured, there must be allowed play

What possibly may prove to be the
prelude to the long expected resump-
tion of hostilities by the Germans on
the western front, is being played,
Southeast of Ypres, from the region
of Voormeezele to Las Clitte, the Ger
mans have launched an attack
against the British and French troops
holding the line, and at certain points
over the five-mile battle front they
have met with some success by pene-
trating front line trenches Appar-
entity, however, over the greater part
of the field of combat they met with
repulse.
AS is usual, the enemy began the
attack after a heavy preliminary
Commandment. The ground gained is
south of Dickebusch lake and in
Ridge wood, around which hard fight
ing was continuing at last accounts.
The objective of the enemy seems
to be the pushing forward of his line
in this region in order still further TO
outflank Ypres on the southwest, and
press forward toward Poeperinghe
and the railway line running between
that town and Ypres.
official Advices Lacking.
As yet only meager advices have
come through concerning the nature
of the engagement, but unofficial re-
ports Indicate that it was made only
in divisional strength. Whether 1t
would develop later into another of
the great battles that have been
fought n,this area could not be fore
told.
on the remainder of the front in
Flanders and Picardy artillery duels
and small operations continue on iso-
lated sectors
The French south of La Clitte have
penetrated German advanced posi-
tions and taken prisoners, and the
Australians, east of Amiens, have
again pinched in and taken over por-
tions of the German line,
The artillery activity has been par
ticularly heavy on both banks of the
Avre, southwest of Amiens, and on
the sector in Picardy held by the
Americans.
On the Toul sector the Americans
for the first time, have opened against
the Germans with their heavy artil-
lery.
On the other battle fronts the oper-
ations continue of a minor character
In Mesopotamia the British have
advanced their line to within eighty
miles of Mosul, capturing the town OF
Kerkuk, which the Turks evacuated
without giving battle.
