JUST GOT OVER A COLDs

Look out for kidney troubles and
backache. Colds oyertax the kidneys
and often leave them weak. For weak
kidneys-well, read what Deming
woman says:
Mrs l.. J.. Browning. PA w. Cedar
St., says: Several years ago my back
was bothering me and my kidneys were
out OF order. The trouble was brought
on, believe, by a cold which settled ON
my kidneys. 1t seemed as though my
back would never stop aching. ANY
housework like sweeping or busting.
which required STOPPING. was almost
unbearable. Doan's Kidney Pills had
been used In the family with good re-
suits so i tried them and they soon

That the soldiers are deeply in

thousands of letters written from
the various camps to the Secretary of

reasons which commend the plan: 1t

will tend to check the rapidly in

Presidential Campaign
Fairly Under Way

Preparations for the Presi-
dental campaign of 1920 may
now be considered fairly under
way. All of the actors have not
as yet had their names blazon-
ed over the National playhouse
wherein the drama Is to be stag
ed, but the tryouts are on; and
those ambitious to play the lead
ing roles are prinking and plum
ing in their dressing rooms in
tent upon making the most ia
vorable impression possible up
on the audience before which
they soon will bow.
An all star cast is preparing
to put on a smashing revival Of
the popular favorite of the last
seven years, entitled LITTLE
MISS DEMOCRACY" a thrill
ing, patriotic drama. The cast
lust now is a small one. The
leading man is on foreign tour;
but McAdoo, and Senator Oscar
Underwood of Alabama, Champ
Clark, Gov. Cox of Ohio, and it
is said, William Jennings Bryan
are understanding each hoping
to step into the limelight when
the present leader makes his fl
nal blow.
This, of couSse, is predicted
upon Wilson's rounding out his
Presidential career with this
term. But there IS a feeling in
the air that if things shape up
right he may make another try,
in third act.
The rival blow, touching
thing called WE'RE COMING
BACK" is in a more formative
stage. Today a chorus of near
ly 20 star performers is strug-
lgling desperately in rehearsal
but the leading soloist cannot

Crack Splinter 'of Frank

Again
(From Times-Picayune)

(From Times-Plcayune)
Franklin, La, is sending team to
the Southern A. A. U. track field
championships to be held May 80 and
81, according to advices received at
A. A. U. headquarters Wednesday.
Robert E. Brumby, former Tulane
athlete and the man who brought
down Ted Kraemer, the Franklin
High School boy, to the interscho-
lastic meet here few days ago, is
organizing a club in Franklin which
will make its debut at the A. A. U.
championship. Kraemer is the boy
who took Marks measure in the CEN
fury dash in 10 rs.
Besides Kraemer, Baker, Berco-
geay and c. Alpha, Brumpy is lining
up few stars who competed on the
track a few years back, among them
being Viely ]. Chauvin, the former
ST. Paul College sprinter, who is now
in business in Franklin.
J. Franklin is going to make bid for
the junior meet, if it can corral
enough athlets to give Warren Eas-
tond and St. Stanislaus a fight.
Russell Stream, 1917 junior high
champion, is the latest entry in the
meet Stream will compete in the
high jump.
Coach Clark D. Shaughnessy, who
coached the successful track team
that beat Tad Gormley's Tigers last
Saturday, called at A. A. U. head
quarters to advise the secretary Tu-
lane was entering a full team in the
championships.
After talking it over with the
athletic authorities at the university,
we have decided to enter a full team
and our list of entries will be hand
ed in Saturday without fail" Shaug-
messy told Benedetto.
With Tulane in, and the Dallas
teams, Coach Simons will have to
hustle some. But Monk" has some
thing to spring and nothing will b
known until the list is closed Satur-
day night. 1t is not likely the Off
cial list will be announced Saturday.
According to advices received by
Secretary Benedetto, Boston and
Pittsburg will support the Southern
association move to get the national
basketball and wrestling champion
ships under the auspices of the Bir-
ningham Athletic Club in 1920.
Commissioner STREET is enthusiast
tic over the Endorsement secured
thus far and with the backing of the
New York delegation on the cham
pionship committee there should be
no trouble in putting it over.

Haf-Billion Asked to Pro.
vide Land for
Soldiers

In the Presidents cabled message
to Congress, read before the House
and Senate yesterday, there was an
important passage concerning land
for soldiers which is likely to win
the approval of both Republicans and
Democrats; in fact the Republicans
have already anticipated the plan by
bills, introduced by Senator Smoot
and Representative Mondell, pro-
viding for the appropriation of half
a billion dollars for the clearing and
reclamation of unoccupied lands in
the United States and the settling Of
discharged soldiers upon them. The
Presidents statement on the matter
reads as follows:
"The Secretary, Of the Interior has
pointed out the way by which re-
turning soldiers may be helped to
find and take up land in the hitherto
undeveloped regions of the country,
which the Federaf~ Government has
already prepared or can readily pre-
pare for cultivation, and also on
many of the cut over or neglected
areas which lie within the limits of
the older States; and / once more
take the liberty of recommending
very urgently that his plans shall re-
ceive the immediate support of the
Congress"
The Secretary of the Interior, Mr..
Franklin K. Lane, has devoted much
study to the subject Of land soldiers
and he reports that there are avail
able 2l5,OOO,OOO acres of land in the
south and west, and in Wisconsin
and the northern parts Of Michigan
and Minnesota. It is estimated that
this land. when made ready for til
lage, will be worth at least one hum
dred dollars an acre or sci 5OO.OOO,OOO.
The Secretary of the interior has
said that the available land is more
than seven times greater than the
State of Virginia, which supports
more than two and one quarter mill
lion souls.
It is proposed that of the half
billion dollars to be appropriated the
sum of S2o0000oO0 is to be immed-
lately available, and that the remain
der is to be made available within
two years. The men are to be e.
tablished in colonies and their farms
are to be equipped with all modern
improvements. They are to have
forty years to repay the money
loaned them for the purchase Of the
farms and equipment-an arrange
ment which is even more liberal

New CHARTER In An.hrepeleax.

It Is an extraordinary chapter in an
thropology that Prof. Wood-Jones.
of the University Of London. reads
in the Tnlgai skull and associated
remains discovered in New South
Wales in 1880. The antiquity sug-
gested is far greater than that of the
European ancient skulls, and, instead
of being descendants Of the anthropoId
apes, the human race Is shown to have
been so highly developed as to have
boats and domesticnted dogs before the
apes appeared. This skull, distinctly
human and highly mlneralIzed, was in
a stratum with extinct pouched AMI
mails. Bones Of dlnso dogs were found
In similar stratum, and with them
bones Of extinct pouched animals that
had been gnawed by the dogs. Only
pouched animals were known in Aus
tralia at the time Of Captain Cook.
Australia has been an island since
pouched animals were evolved, and 1t
is argued that the Talgai man must
have come In boat with his family
and dogs.

In accordance with ancient custom.
slx-penny pieces were distributed on
Good Friday in the churchyard Of st.

were dropped upon one of the fiat
tombstones by Corporal w. h. Irons,
r. q. (under church warden). and the
widows. whose ages ranged from
eighty-five to sixty. were required to
pick them up. Concerning the origin
Of the custom. nothing Is definitely
known. Until Sfr. Butterworth. some
thirty years ago. invested sum Of
money sufficient to assure what was
needed to continue the custom on
Good Fridays. the distribution was In
danger Of being discontinued, mas
much as there was no fund from
which the money was supplied. Until
then the expense was borne by the
church wardens. The nave of the
church once stood upon the spot where
the money is now distributed. but was

These English women not merely
showed Industry and spirit and feryor.
but they set upon their work the seal
of vnlOr. Their lives were In con-

which they worked and also because
the factories were chief detectives Of
