HOGS MUCH HIGHER.
New Record Made at Brighton Market
Fancy Calves Firmer.

Brighton, Mass. Sept. ls.-Hogs made
a new high record at the Brighton stock

dressed being materially higher than a
week ago. Calves were also hrmer for
fancy lots, but all kinds Of beef stock
was easier and slow of sale.
Best cattle were held at loo, but buy
ers were slow to bid over l3@l4c, though
possibly a fraction more was obtained
for an exceptional pair. Buyers said
that the weakness was more pronounced
in the medium and poor stuff than for
the fancy grade. Average tops sold at
o09Ac, though occasionally there was q
fancy edge that brought more. Good
cattle sold at 71s@siac, and light cattle
at 6@7c.
Some shippers were talking ll@l2c
for fancy beef cows, but ga l0c appears
to be about as high as buyers were will

sold at 9G9iac, and drovers were rather
blue. Average tops sold at s@slac, good
cows at 7@7Hsc, ordinary cows at &c

unusual number of small bulls were in
the market yesterday and being in fair

.QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take Glass of Salts if Your Back
Hurts or Bladder Troubles
Won

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally,
says a well known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which excites the
kidneys, they become overworked
from the strain, get sluggish and fail
to filter the waste and poisonS from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver
trouble, nervousness, dizziness.
sleeplessness and urinary disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts
or if the urine is cloudy, offensive,
full of sediment, irregular OF pass
age or attended by a sensation OF
scaldirg, stop eating meat and get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy; take a tablespoon
full in a glass of water before break
fast 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 the kidneys,
also to neutralize the acids in urine
SO it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes delightful ef-
fervescent lithia-watcr drink which
everyone should take now and then
to keep the kidneys clean and act
i've and the blood pure, thereby
avoiding serious kidney complica-
tions.

HUN MURDER
ON HIGH SEAS

London, Feb. 2S.-An illuminat-
ing account of the deliberate man
ner in which Germany decided to
adopt murder on the high seas as a
government policy in defiance OF
all the laws and decent instincts OF
man and humanity, is given as fol
lows in the HandelSblad:
At the close of the year 1915 the
German admiralty staff prepared
semi-official memorandum to
prove that an unrestricted subma-
rine campaign would compel Great
Britain to sue for peace "in six
months at the most The charac-
ter of the argument conveys the
impression that the chiefs of the
German admiralty staff had already
made up their minds to adopt he
most drastic measure in regard to
submarine warfare, but that they
wished to convince the kaiser, the
imperial chancellor, and the Ger
man diplomatists of the certainty
of good results on economic and
general rather than merely military
grounds.
To this end the memorandum
based its arguments on statistics of
food prices, freight and insurance
rates in Great Britain. 1t pointed
out that the effects on the prices
of essential commodities, on the
balance of trade, and, above all, on
the morale of the chief enemy, had
been such even with the restricted
submarine campaign of 1915 that if
an unrestricted submarine war
were decided upon, England could
not possibly hold out for more than
short period.
The memorandum was submitted
to the imperial chancellor, who
passed it on to DR.. Hclfierich, the
secretary of state for finance. lie,
however rejected the document on
the ground that in the absence OF
authentic estimates of stocks it was
impossible to set a time-limit to
England's staying power; and also
that he was exceedingly doubtful
as to what line would be taken by
neutrals, especially the United
States. DIR. Helfferich maintained
that so desperate a remedy should
only be employed as a last resource
The authors of the memorandum
then sent a reply, in which they de-
veloped their former arguments
and pointed to the gravity OF the
internal situation in Germany. They
emphasized the Importance of us
ing the nearest and sharpest wcap-
ons of offence if a national collapse
was to be avoided. They reinforced
their argument by adducing the evi-
dence of ten experts representing
finance, commerce, the mining in
dustry and agriculture.
These experts were invited tc
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-03-05

send answers in writing to the three
following questions:
/. What would be the effect on
England OF unrestricted submarine
warfare?
2, What would be its effect on
Germanys relations with the Unit
ed States and other ncutrals2
). To what extent does the inter
nal situation in Germany demand
the use of this drastic weapon?
All agreed on the first point;
the effect on Great Britain. The
effect of unrestricted submarine
warfare on England would be that
she would have to sue for peace in
six months at the most. Or the
question OF the effect on ncutrals
the experts were divided.
As to the third point, all the ex-
perts agreed that the internal sit
uation in Germany demanded that
the most drastic method of subma-
rine warfare should be employed.
Agricultural prospects were bad,
and trade-especially the iron
trade-had suffered through the
shortage of output and the dcarth
of skilled workers. The coal trade
was better but, sooner or later, was
bound to feel the drain on labor.
The reduction of output would af-
feet the supply OF war material, end
would deprive 4 large number Of
families of their income. The ma
ton would stand by the govern
ment, but not il it yielded to threats
from America. Such weakness
would lead to serious consequences.
Herr Schmidt, councillor of eco
nomics, admitted the possibility of
Germany not being able to hold
out, and emphasized the impor-
tance of taking drastic steps before
disorder and unrest arose in the ag-
ricultural districts.
In this way did Germany decide
to abandon what remained of Ger
man honor for a last throw against
England-and abandoned it in vain.
What has become of the girl who
wore a wide-brim hat and played
croquet?
