Daniels said. it will be necessary.
to enable the Navy to secure an ade-
quate number of these men. to send
the eight dreadnaughts of the Allan

winter maneuvers with reduced crews
and also to reduce the number OF
destroyers and auxiliary craft which
it was planned to send with the bat

Moreover. the shortage Of skilled men
Mr.. Daniels said, makes it impossible
to prevent deterioration of all ship in

w. R. & e. REROUTlNG
WILL BE EXPERIMENTAL
Commissioner Kutz States Routes
Will Be Adjusted Until Best
Service Is Obtained.

The proposed rerouting Of cars OF
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company, now being Considered by
the Public Utilities Commission, will
be experimental and may be changed
later until the routes that will result
in the most regular service are WORK
ed out.
This was indicated today by Engi-.
neer Commissioner Kutz. chairman OF
the utilities commission. Chairman
Kutz pointed out that it is dif1cult to
foretell how new routes will work out
in actual operation, and for that rea-
son adjustments may be found neces-
sary after the. new plan Is put into
effect.
The commission will hold its regu-
lar meeting Wednesday,. but it is not
certain whether the new routes will
be ready for announcement at that
time.
The main object Of the commission
| in rereuting the cars is to improve the
regularity Of the schedules on certain
lines rather than to increase the num-
ber of cars.
| 1t is believed to be the opinion OF
ot1,.als Of the commission that the
routes now followed by the cars OF
several lines are too long to enable
the company to operate the cars on
schedule time.

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a Glass of Salts to flush
Kidneys if Bladder bothers
you-Drink lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other, says well-known
authority, because the uric acid in
meat excites the kidneys, they be-
come overworked; get sluggish; clog
up and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in
the kidney region; rheumatic
twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary
irritation.
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 a tablespoonful in
glass Of water before breakfast
for 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 generations
to flush clogged kidneys and stiHnu-
late them to normal activity; also to
neutralize the acids in the urine so
it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which millions of
men and women take now and then
to keep the kidneys and urinary or
gans clean, thus avoiding serious
kidney disease.-Ady.-

AIkali In Soap
BAD For the Hair

Soap should be used very care
fully, if you want to keep your hair
looking it's best. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too
much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaselessl, and
is better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy, it's very cheap
and few ounces will supply every
member of the family for months

provision continuing the war f.
nance corporation with Authority to
make loans to finance export trade.
The bill now goes to the senate.
Representative Moore of Pennsyl-

to committee for its elimination.
Representatives Sloan of Nebras-
ka and Fess of Ohio, republicans,
joined with Mr.. Moore in speeches
attacking the corporation. They
urged its early discontinuance in the
interest of economy.
Legislation for the loan provided
by the bill authorizes the issue of
short term notes, maturing in one
to five years, with the treasury hav-
ing the authority TO fix the interest
rates. The measure also directs the
treasury TO create sinking fund for
the retirement of war bonds and
authorizes extension of further gov

ToDAY's BEAUTY TALK

You can enjoy delightful sham
poo with very little effort and for
very trifling cost, if you get from
your druggists package of can
throx and dissolve a teaspoonful in
a cup Of hot water. This makes a
full cup Of shampoo liquid-enough
so it is easy to apply it to all the
hair instead of just the top of the
head. Your shampoo is now ready.
Just pour a little at time on the
scalp and hair until both are entirely
covered by the daintily perfumed
preparation that thoroughly dis
solves and removes every bit of dam
druff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing. the hair dries quickly with
a fluffiness that makes it seem
heavier than it is, and takes on a
rich luster and softness that makes
arranging it pleasure.-Adv.

when / began taking Tanlac a short

caused by the terrible condition of
my stomach. For two or three hours
after meals my food would lie in my
stomach undigested and cause me
a world of suffering. My food
