CLEANS KIDNEYS
bothers, drink lots of water
and eat less meat

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don It get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs to 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 normal activity. The
function Of the kidneys is to filter the
blood. In 24 hours they strain from it
900 grains Of acid and waste, so we
can readily understand the vital i'm
portance of keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-you can Z drink
too much; also get from the pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a
tablespoonful in glass of water before
breakfast each morning for a few DAYS
ard your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
iithia, and has been used for genera
tons to clean and stimulate clogged
kidneys; also TO neutralize the acids
in the urine so ii no longer is q source
OF irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot IN
iure; makes a delightful cffervescent

should take now and then TO keep their
kidneys clean and active. Try this, also
keep up the water drinking, aud no

CAPITAL CITY NOTES
(By Chas H. Trapp.)

Topeka, June 24.-The bone-dry
law begins to take on serious aspects.
Last week a couple of cases OF cham
payne went into Wichita under an
"OIive Oil' label and one of the bot
ties broke. Now a prominent citizen
is in imminent danger of spending
some time in jail. Tuesday a promi-
nent Topeka miller came across the
line with a couple of cases of beer
and an assistant attorney general
stopped him, took away his four
thousand dollar auto, put him in jail
for awhile and made him put up a
five hundred dollar bond. Under the
law the auto will have to be destroy
ed. The confirmed bootIegger takes
no such chances. When he is caught
it is found that some fellow in Kan
sas City has a mortgage on the car
and speedily claims it. Temperance
people are thinking of fixing up the
law so that the little mortgage clause
will not apply.
1t looks now as though there is go
ing to be a hard-surfaced highway
from Omaha to Tulsa through Kan
sas. The Kansas Good Roads Asso-
citation auxiliary, the Capital High
way association made a preliminary
tour last week to find out which of
two routes is the best. one through
Burlington and Yates Center and the
other through lola and Leroy. Kan
sas editors in the towns traversed by
the rival routes are taking a hand IN
the game and some unusual good
roads publicity may result before the
line is definitely fixed.

H FELLOW SAYS
POLITICS AND INDUSTRY

The non.taxpaying elcment-those
who own no property or business
are constantly engaged IN the pro
motion of new theories of govern
mcnt and there has developed in this
country a mania for the regulation
of private business by restrictive
laws. The enactment and the oper-
alton Of these laws cost money and
help to pile mp the tax rate, but des-
pite all OF the new regulations and
restrictions the cost of living has
constantly increased, SO that both
the taxpayer and the non-taxpayer
have been hurt.
1t is frankly admitted by one ele-
ent-the socialist-that it is their
aim to tax property until private
ownership VIII no longer be possible.
That it is their intention to take
the savings of the industrious
and the thrifty and have everything
under public ownership and control.
Ard this gradually being done thro-
ugh political manipulation.
The tend ncy to follow propagan-
da OF TIN, kind is growing and is
up by politicians who pander
to every movement that bears the
ear mark. of popularity. The ouly
reason for this is that opponents OF
business and property rights reDre-
sent an organized force in politics

Newton D. Baker "the Great Peace

to the battle fields Of Europe. In

was any reason to fear that Germany
would single out and try to sink the
