100 Years Old

"The kidneys play most important
part in causing premature old age and
death-the more injurious the poisons
passing thru the kidneys the sooner
comes decay'-so says distinguished
physician, who further advises all people
who are past thirty to preserve the vitality
OF the kidneys and free the blood from
poisonous elements, such as uric acid
drink plenty of water-sweat some daily
and take Anuric before meals.
This Anuric is put up in tablet
form, and can be obtained at almost
any drug store. For that backache,
iumbago, rheumatism, rusty" joints,
swollen feet or hands, due to uric acid
in the blood, Anuric quickly dissolves
the uric acid as hot water does sugar
Discovered by DR.. Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y.
Prevent premature old age by simply
slipping cup of hot water every morning
before breakfast, taking little Anuric
before meals and live to be q hundred.

its contents become so surcharged with
the gas as to render it yalueless.
Through the county agricultural
agents the United States department
of agriculture is urging large estab-
lishments such as canneries and fruit
drying businesses to save pits from
their products for gas mask use.
Ordinarily these pits should be shipped
whole, but exception has been made
for certain California fruit Gamers
and driers who make a valuable by
product from the kernel within april
cot seeds.
Boys. and Girls Help.
The department also has aligned the
million members of the boys and girls
clubs throughout the country, and they
are busily working to see which club,
district and state can deliver the larg-
est amount in the shortest space of
time in this pit and shell drive. They
are putting pep" "jump" speed"
'get-up-and-go" into their drive, and
they are using signs, slogans and songs
to send the pits and shells over the
top. Department stores have barrels
placed in their aisles where collections
may be put; hotels and community
canneries are periodically putting the
stones aside for the government, but
the largest source of supply-one
which is practically untapped--is that
from the individual households. The
L
finitesimal, but the aggregate from
more than twenty million homes will
be stupendous.
The stones and shells should be
taken to the nearest Red Cross center,
where they will be forwarded to the
proper department.
Any one who saves these important
carbon requisites for gas masks is
helping win the war.

To REGULATE SALE
OF VICTORY FLOUR
DRASTIC ORDER is ISSUED BY
ARKANSAS FOOD ADJ
MtNiSTRAToR.
10 PUNISH ALL vIOLATORs
Limit of 12 Pounds Per Capita Fairly
Determines a Reasonable Amounr
AZ Prescribed In Food Contro'
Act Passed BY Congress


In order to better regulate the sale
Of Victory mixed and standard wheat
fiours ard to Immediately curtail the
tendenc. to lay in great quantities Oh
those products, especially in the ru-
raj districts, State Food Administra-
tor Hamp Williams issued ruling
that limits the sale of those fiours IN
the city to a 80 days supply, based
on II pounds per capital, while resi-
dents of the country are not per-
mitted to purchase at one time or
have on hand more than 80 days
supply, which is also based on II
pounds per person in the family.
Notice is also given that if retailers
sell more than the aforementioned
amount, or if consumers purchase
more than that, they will be prose
euted. Special circulars to that effect
have been printed and. sent to every
county food administrator and all re-
tail dealers in Arkansas.
The limit of Il pounds per capita
fairly determines reasonable
amount as prescribed in the food
control act passed by Congress. lie
ports have been coming to the state
food administration that in numerous
sections OF the state farmers have
bought flour sufficient to last them
all winter. That is clearly boarding,
in the opinion of Mr.. Williams. Any
person guilty of posse ssing nsore flour
than specified in The official ruling
made is in danger of facing a charge
of boarding in the federal court, he
said He further points out that in
spectors from state headquarters are
now working all over Arkansas and
d. Would prove very costly 70
any one found guilty OF boarding.
THE amount of flour that may be
purchased and which enc may have
on hand is very reasonable. said Mr.
Williams. q also want to call atten-
ton that every time STANDARD wheat
flour is used it should be mixed with
20 per Ger Institutes, and that I'M
less this ne the person mixing
that -four is not fulfilling his or her
obligation to the government.
81 also desire to impress upon those
farmers who have bought and now
have in their possession more flour
than now specified that they lose no
time in returning the excess to the
merchant from whom it was bought
Again I would remind them that
boarding is punishable by a fine Of
$4,000 and Imprisonment in the fed
eral penitentiary."

CARBON FOR GAS
MASKS is URGED
Provide Protection for American
Boys Who Are Fighting in
French Trenches.
FRUIT PITS MOST VALUABLE
Stones and Shells, Ordinarily Regard
ed as ValueIess and Thrown Away
Are Wanted-Send Direct to
Red Cross Stations.

Do not throw away a single peach.
plum, apricot, cherry, prune, date or
olive pit nor the shell of nut.
The United States government asks
you to give to it, through the Red
Cross, the fruit stones you would or
dinarily throw away. About 200 peach
stones will provide enough carbon for
a gas mask-the only protection be-
tween our boys and poisonous gases
being used by Germans.
One of the essentials in the respira-
tor designed to protect our soldiers on
the front lines against deadly gases is
carbon. The efficiency of the mask to
a large extent depends upon the quail
ity of the carbon. An excellent quail
ity is obtained from fruit pits and nut
shells. These stones and shells, which
are ordinarily regarded as yalueless,
the people of this country now are
asked to save, as our government is
experiencing difficulty in getting the
right kind of carbon. The British gov
eminent has also asked for a supply
of high-grade carbon TO use for the
same purpose.
The pits before they are delivered
to central collecting points should not
be cracked, but dried carefully In the
sun or In ovens. Rain will not injure
the stones or shells provided they are
thoroughly dried afterwards.
Nut Shells Valuable Also.
Large quantities Of hickory nuts,
walnuts and butternuts are to be.
found In various sections of the coun-
try and only limited amounts are now
gathered annually. AS the meats are
valuable food, they should be extracted
from the shells before the latter are
delivered to the Red Cross collecting
stations. Nut meats will keep perfect
ly in a dry place for months or they
may be marketed. The whole nuts
may be sent. If the nut meats are not
used locally. Quantities of pignuts
and bitternuts remain uncollected each
year. even. by the squirrels, because
of the taste of the meats, or their
smallness; the shells of these, how
ever, are excellent for carbon.
Only the shells of the nuts and the
stones from the fruit listed above
should be sent, as the government
chemists have carefully selected the
kinds which are most valuable for the
gas mask manufacture. 1t requires
about 200 peach pits or seven pounds
of nut shells to produce carbon enough
for one mask. This mask will protect
the boys In the front line trenches
against every kind of gas excepting
one. which Is seldom encountered. A
mask may be used for Is hours before

Homemade Grape Juice.

Any person familiar with the proc.
esses of canning fruit can put up grape
juice, for the principles involved are
the same. Only clean. sound, WELL
ripened but not over-ripe grapes should
be used. The juice may be extracted
by hand or in a cider mill If light
colored product is desired. Heat this
liquid to the boiling point, place In
sterilized bottles or Jars and carefully
seal. The product may be sweetened
or not at the time of bottling.
When a red juice is desired the
grapes should first be heated to q tenn
perature of 200 degrees Fahrenheit
and then strained through clean cloth
or dripbag. Reheat the liquid after
straining, place in containers and seal.
Keep the bottles or cans In a cool
place. If bottles are used the corlSs
should be sterilized and the neeks
sealed with sealing wax. Unfermented
juice may be made not only from all
varieties of grapes, but from some
other fruits, such as apples, pears
cherries and berries.
Unfermented grape juice can be used
in sickness. convalescence, and health.
1t is generally claimed that a reason
ably large quantity of this drink i'm
proves digestion and results in am in
crease in body weight. Aside from he-
ing a delicious beverage. it possesses
value in adding variety to various des-
sert recipes.
