EAT LESS AND TAKE
 SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Take a Glass of Salts if Your Back
 Hurts or Bladder Sothcrs.

The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trou- ble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is fjlled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from ever- work, become sluggish; the eiinina- tive tissues clog and tho result Is kid ney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health.
 When your kidneys feel like iuplps of lead; your back hurts or tine urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheuInatism when the weather Is bad, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a table, speenfui in a glass ef water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid Of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for gen erations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is g source ot irritation, thus ending bladder dis orders.
 dad Salts is inexpensive: cannot in 1uFe. makes a delightful efferveseent ltthia- water beverage, and belongs ir every home because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flushing any time.

PAN. .EPlRoTlc UNION.

Delegates from all parts of the United States attended a convention last Sunday in Worcester, represent ing 40 societies of the Pan-Epirotie union, which is committed to the union of Epirus with Greece rather than with Albania or Italy, both of which will prefer claims to it at the coming peace conference. Two Connecticut men present at the meeting were A. Shoris of this city and c. Econmids and D. Kiotsas of Torringten. Con- stantine Stephanou of Philadelphia, the richest Greek in America was also one of the delegates and contrib nted 5000 to the treasury of the cause.
 The purpose was to form a seherai association of all the Epifotes of America, and to maintain that organ iaatio1 and to show the American people the desire of those Epirotes to be united to Greece.
 The gathering toook the form of a celebration of tho victory of the allied forces over the central powers and to appeal to the American people and province of Epirus with the Greek na- tion.
 The union says the province of Epirus is between the province of AL ba1lia and the northwestern boundary of Greece, as defined in 1918 by tho an1ha ssadorial conferences at London.
 The union appeals for the union of the province of Epirus with Greece, as the province is disputed between Italy, Albania and Greece. The union says the majority of the inhabitants are Greek and that in 1913, at tho congress of London, at the insistenee of the triple alliance. the inhabitants of Epiris were annexet to Albania against their will.
 The appeal claims that in 1914 the Greek army was ordered to evacuate the province and Mosiem Albanian forces under Turkish, Austrian and Italian officers marched to occupy Epirus, but the inhabitants reyoited and defeated the Albanian forces, and another congress at Corfh recognized the autonomy of Epirus.
 The union says that after the en- trance of Italy into the war, Italian 1 forces occupied the province, driving 1 away the native officials and Greek order of priests and closed the schools, declaring the province Alba niaa under the protectorate of Italy and imposed upon the inhabitants Al
 hanian- Italian teachers, priests and officials.
 The Epiretes on the occasion ..t .hs triumph of Americans over German kultur are heartened By the firm be- 1 lief that President Wilson will be the
 judge of all subject nationalities. 1 The union states that in Worcester out of 1000 Greeks 1,5b0 come from the province of Epiy4ls and their record et
 loyalty to America may be attested I by the expressions of gratitude frcrr
 city officials for their splendid contri. | buttons to the Red Cross. Every
 member of the union gives a days pay and by their generous buying of Lib | erty bonds.
 Dr. Gatscpsuios of Lowell, president
 Of the union. presided ant. introduced 1 the representatives of the variouE so- eieties. who voiced the feeling oe tiaeil organizations.

a WORD TO OUR CHILDREN.

Perhaps next week nearly all Of our
public schools along with the high
schools will open wide their doors for
this new school year, and we feel it our
duty as a citizen and father to urge
upon every child, old and young, to-
enter these various schools at once when
they do open, and every father and
mother or guardian should see to it
that their child is there on the first day
when the doors open, for the very I'M
poTtant reason that we as a race are al
most standing in front Of the great
door of opportunity that will soon be
flung open to us as a race, and we are
afraid that many Of us or our children
will not be prepared to take advantage
Of this opportunity and I'LL the position
efficiently wien that door is opened to
~. Don keep your child out of school
because it has a good job. Prepare him
or her for the bigger job while young.
Go to school. Keep in school and finish,
f. my word today.

UNCLE SANS
MAIL POUCH

Somewhere in France, July 21, 1913.
My Dear Darling Mother:
Your dear letter forwarded me from
Camp Upton, New York, and believe me
it was the dearest and sweetest letter
you have ever written me, and oh! how
very much / did enjoy it, each line,
every little word. 1t was just like you
to stay up late to write me. And / was
indeed pleased to learn that all was well
and you would not forget me, over here.
First / must say that have been real
well and as our mail is censored there is
lots l must keep from you that / should
have you know. But if / write it it
would be cut out and you would only re-
ceive the remaining few lines. So I will
just relate that which / hope the cen
here some time. Well, since 90 days
after leaving you for Upton, and / have
seen some of this place. France is in
deed beautiful place. It's scenic
beauty is indeed marvellous, wonderful.
But after all give me old clean America
and you. Soldiers of every nation, men,
men, men, are all one ever sees. We
have been getting along just fine. Nice
place in camp and good food. Our train
ing has been very intensive and it keeps
one at work. But all are well and in
fine spirit, with nothing to fear, for
when our time comes to go to the front
we have acquired the necessary training
and possess that real confidence that
knows no failing. This a. m. I am on
my way to school, 80 miles from my
company and 10 miles to go. I spent
week end with them. You know we are
not permitted to mention names here, so
you understand After four weeks in
school shall be with company again.
The captain is with me, SO / am not
very lonesome. Sgt. Gruner is well and
in my shoes as he doesn t know anyone.
Oh, yes, I must send you French book,
so when come home you can talk to me.
But l must learn it first. Really, it s
very fascinating language and / have
learned one word anyway, "wee-wee"
in French meaning yes, yes, in our Ian
guage. Ha, Ha. Do you think you will
like it. Well, mother, there IS nothing
want unless you want to send me some
smokes. Fatimas or anything. You
can t buy but one package at one time
here as there are so many soldiers to
supply. Your package to me can It
weigh over seven pounds. Hello and
love to Mother B. and M. J. and will
write them when first chance presents
itself. Always with love by the oodles
for you and you shall have my picture
when I get back from school and you
will hear from me often direct, not
through my sister, for am I not your
sonG would write more, but time pre-.
vents my doing SO. Be good sweet
mother and believe / love you as I did
ere the time I spent with you. An ocean
OF kisses and world Of hugs to my dar-
ling, anxious mother. Don It worry. An
swer soon.
