With perfect confidence the treasury
department is making arrangements
for the fourth Liberty loan and no
doubt Is expressed about putting this
over with the same success that has
attended every other loan thus far. 1t
is believed that the people have been
getting the habit" of doing whatever
is necessary to make the war a sue
cess. Money is one of the chief req
uistes, and while we may have more
than a million men In France now, with
possibly 100000 a year from now, it
is absolutely necessary to pay their
expenses and see that they are sup
piled with everything necessary to beat
back the German army. That the
fourth Liberty loan is going to be
success there cannot be the slightest
doubt.

MUSH AND MILK.

What has become of the old
time bowl of cornmeal mush and
) milk? 1t is an American dish,
cheap, nourishing and palatable.
: The older generation loved It;
and for economical, sentimental
: and patriotic reasons we should
, now go back TO il and take all
America with us. Mush and
milk furnishes a balanced ra-
ton, yet contains no wheat, no
: meat, no sugar. 1t is n whole
meal in itself, and while the war
: lasts it should be used more
largely in this country. It's
: larger use here will release other
and more concentrated foods for
: our armies and the armies of the
, allies. We are producing an
abundance of food we will save
, it for our boys across the water;
and food will help to win the
, war. The Austrians, Bulgarl-
ans, Turks and Germans are be-
ginning to see this, and the kali
ser also believes and trembles.

There is possibility of water
power Legislation, judging from the
discussion that took place In the
house before the adjournment, al
though the adjournment has tended TO
postpone action on the bill. But 1t
does seem as If the special committee
on water power had prepared meas
ure which might get through. At all
events less opposition was manifested
to it than to any other such bill that
has ever been presented. This was
noticeable In the discussion of the
measure by Western men. AS q gen.
eral thing in the case of representa-
tives of states where there are vast
forest reserves, Indian reservations
and other large bodies of land with
held from development and settlement,
there is nearly always strong opposi-
tion TO any water-power legislation
satisfactory to the representatives. of
Eastern states. Western men as
general rule claim that the resources
Of state, even If they are on public
lands, are to large extent state prop
erty and ought to be handled and de-
veloped independently of the national
government. But the large majority
of members of the house have never
acquiesced in that view.
AT present there is considerable
doubt as to what will happen when
the bill reaches the senate. The bill
now pending in the house is substi-
tute for one which passed the senate
and was agreed TO with some reluc-
and the changes which have been
made may make II obnoxious TO them
to such an extent as to cause them to
use all possible efforts to defeat it.
The condition in the senate possibly
will make water-power legislation
doubtful at this session.
In the senate one day during the
consideration of various bills on the
calendar the body received a rude
shock when the clerk read the title
of bill for public building at
Knoxville, Tennessee.
Il objectW
Everybody turned to rear seat on
the Republican side and looked with
Amusement and some pity upon Sena-
tor Lenroot of Wisconsin,. AS far
back as the memory of senators and
others connected with the senate goes,
no one ever objected to the considera-
tion of publlcbuilding bill. Public
building bills have always been con-
sidered sacred to senators. They have
been passed as II matter of course, ev-
erybody knowing that when the time
comes all bills of that character will
be finally passed In an omnibus bin.
Senator Shields Of Tennessee reasoned
with Lenroot, but 1t was no use The
Wisconsin senator insisted that cities
In his state were entitled TO ms much
consideration as Knoxville, and would
not withdraw his objection.

While there was a good deal of OPP
position to the resolution taking over
the telegraph and telephone lines by
the government, yet everything yielded
to military necessity.
There has been a suspicion for
long time that both the telegraph and
the telephone have been used by Ger
man agents for the purpose of furnish
Ing information to Germany regarding
the movements Of troops and the yes
sells of the United States as well as
of merchant shipping. This suspicion
grew during the time the U-boats were
operating off the Atlantic coast. It
was believed that many innocent
sounding messages sent over the tele-
graph wires and verbally communi-
Gated over telephone wires were really
notifications of German agents as TO
the disposition Of American troops and
Of intended movements of American
vessels. When this idea was talked
about in congress there was not much
hesitation In giving the government
authority to absolutely control such
lines of communication.

cause of the prohibition amendment

rose Of Pennsylvania 10 make inquiries
Of Senator Gore Of Oklahoma, who had
charge of the bill. 81 am curious to
know why this amendment has been

blandly replied Senator Gore, "and
probably we are more lastidIous In
CHASING them az noxious rodents"
"Can the senator tel me Just what
varieties of rodents are described as
noyious?" asked Penrose.
81 may say to the senator" remark
ed Gore, "as he seems to have n very
statesmanlike curiosity on this sub
ject, that the department intended to
make an assault on rats and mice In
dwellings. We thought perhaps that
was going little too far in these
strenuous times and we would leave
the individual and our great indvid-
uahstic theory to combat the mice, at
least for time"
"They have temporary immunity"
commented Penrose
"Since we are to have woman suf-
frage," further explained Gore, at
was thought the women ought to COM
bat the mice. At least that was the
argument that was made before the
committee"
All Of which shows that senators can
indulge in some very trivial conversa-
ton during very strenuous times.
On the last day that the house was
in session to do business attention
was called to the attempt at profit
eeing by sharp Washington law
yers and claim agents nj the ex-
pense Of soldiers who die ut the
front. Most of the soldiers have taken
advantage of the generosity of the gov
eminent in the matter of war risk in
surance, and have taken out policies.
Then there is usually some back pay
due soldiers who die In the service.
The beneficiaries Of the war risk In
surance and those to whom the back
pay Is due are sure to receive their
money from the government without
the Intervention of any agent or at
torney. But the attorneys and claim
agents, anxious to make all they can
even at the expense of the widows and
orphans or other relatives Of soldiers
who die on the battlefield, seek the
earliest opportunity to get IN touch
with the beneficiaries of the insurance

EAT Less MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys If Bladder
n, Bothers You

. Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other, says a well-known ,au-
thority, because the uric acid in meat
excites the kidneys, they become ov-
erworked; get sluggish; clog up and
cause all sorts Of distress, particular
ly backache and misery in the kidney
region; rheumatic twinges, severe
headaches, acid stomach, constipation,
torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinay irritation Il A. -.s$.,
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take tablespoonful in a
glass of 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 lthia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity; also to neut-
ralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
disorders. =
Jad Salts cannot .injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent ithia-
water drink which millions of men
and women take now, and then to
keep the kidneys and urinary organs
clean, thus avoiding serious kidney
disease. - r. -

H. L. Kramer, the man who
originated Cascarets, has discov-
cred a sure, safe, quick acting
relief for bad stomachs.
You can eat anything you like
now and digest it in comfort, for
stomach ease is positively assured
ifyou take an EATONIC tablet or
two occasionally after each meal.
:. :. EATONIC acts directly with
the food as it enters the stomach.
tquickly checks any tendencyto-
ward too much acid and enables
the food to pass from the stomach
into the bowel in sweetened con-
dition, and thus prevents the for
nation of sour, distressing gases
that upset digestion and cause a
,bloated, dull, lumpy feeling, food
repeating, and all kinds Of stom-
ach miseries. :,

RED CROSS NOTES
New Knitting Machine.

Mrs. E. E. Mcdonald and Mrs: A.
p. White have purchased knitting
machine, which averages at least ten
pairs of socks a day. This machine
cost $22, which is certainly reason
able,> considering all, the socks it can
knit for the boys cover there" This
knitting machine ought to be more
in vogue among our patriotic Be-
midi Red Cross workers. Mrs. White
has knit sock in Is minutes with
it. The Red Cross chapter of Bel
trami county has been allotted 675
pairs of socks to be knitted during
the months Of July and August.
Socks are needed much more at
present than sweaters or scarfs, and
if this machine was more in use, we
could do large bit towards the sock
supply.
