Pfmples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and irnpur-
tiles which are generated in the
bowels and then absorbed into the
blood through the very ducts which
should absorb only nourishment To
sustain the body.
It Is the function Of the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form Of urine,
but in many instances the bowels
create more toxins and impurities
than the kidneys can eliminate, then
the blood uses the skin poreE as the
next best means of getting rid OF
these impurities which often break
out all over the skin in the form OF
plmples.
The surest way to clear the skin OF
these eruptions, says a noted author
ity, Is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
hot water each morning before
breakfast for one week. This will
prevent the formation of toxins in
the bowels. II also stimulates the
kidneys to normal activity. thus
cosxing them to filter the blood of

tack Upon Suppression
Order Of War Dept.

The War Department policy of re-
fusing to make public the address
of soldiers killed in France was Wig
orously asssiled in the House yes
terday. .r. .-...s
Members said 1t would be better to
publish nothing at all instead. OF the
mere names. because parents would
not then be needlessly frightened.
Representative Mckenzie. of Illinois,
opened discussion by reading a tele-
gram from a constituent in Sterling.
ILL.,, who thought his boy had been
killed when a name exactly like his
casualty lists.
Mckenzie, after hours of mental dis
tress. that 1t was quite another per-
son.
'I feel that this order" said Nc
Kenzie, "aggravates a very delicate
and serious condition. can see no
harm that would result from giving
the address of the dead men, with
out naming his regiment.
There are hundreds of Smiths In
the army, and the mother of every
one will feel in her heart that her
son has been killed when the name
Of one of them is published in cas-
ualty list. She will not rest until
she learns II 1t is her son.
No Enemy Information.
"I will do anything to win the
war. and I would oppose any move
that would give the German army
any information. But when an Amer
ican boy lays down his life in France.
I can see no danger in letting his
relatives and friends be relieved of
anxiety at once.
Il hope the War Department will
see the propriety OF changing it.,
which to my mind is unnecessary
and uncalled-for."
Representative Garrett. Of Tennes-
see, replied the War Department is
also advising by private telegraph
all parents of men killed or wounded.
The distressing fact remains" re-
t0rted Mckenzie. that the mother
who thinks her son may have been
killed is not advised"
"If the mothc" understood the War
Department order" said Garrett,
she would feel perfectly safe be-
cause she would know that IL it were
her boy she would be informed"
Representative Glass. of Virginia
added that there must have been
serious reasons for the order or the
French government would not have
requested it of the United States.

take must have been made in de.
