Let Good Feeling Prevail
From Leslie's.


 One of the worst features of industrial unrest is the feeling of suspicion on the part of labor toward capital: The agita- tor has felt that his job depends upon keeping alive this spirit of antagonism, and he has assiduously famed the flames. One of our readers who is deeply inter- ested in overcoming industrial unrest has written of a successful plan to promote a better feeling between employer and employe. In the days when shops were small, when the employer worked with his men or was personally acquainted and in close touch with them, strikes were almost unknown. The problem of indus as possible. this personal relationship. It is based on better acquaintance and the effort on the part of employer and em- ploye to solve the problems of industry not separa tely, but together. Our corre- spondent tells of three ways this is done in his plant! First by having helpful talks on live topics by representative me n at the noon hour. Second, by a weekly letter to the men, with a part always of the data furnished by the men them selves. Third, by seeking in all contact standing, forbearance and confidence. This is not paternalism, which is rigdly obnoxious to the average Workingman. but cooperation armed upon mutual re- spect for the other mans point of view.

Most folks forget that the kidneys. like the bowels, get sluggish and clog ged and need d flushing occa sionally else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic twinges. torpid liver acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders.
 You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good drug store here, take 8 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 lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutra1izes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.

London Agair, Happy

London, March 29-Truly we are returning slowly but surely to old time social existence in London town Once more do we chatter of the open ing of the Royal Opera house, Covent Garden; of the opening of "The Season" of courts at Buckingham palace and of a fortnight amid the joys of Monte Carlo before the strenuous round of entertaining begins once more in Lon don
 was told yesterday of many fash ionable folk en route for the Riviera, among them being the beautiful Vis- countess Curzon, who, with her sister law, Lady Kathleen Curzon- Her rick, has taken a villa on the hill which overlooks Cannes. It is the property of the Duchess of Albany and hear that Lady Curzon and Lady Kathleen will stay there until after Easter when they return in order to be in time to take part in the post Lenten gaieties that are sure to dis tinguish our great peace season. Vls- countess Curzon, as perhaps you know, is not to be confused with the Countess Curzon of Kedleston, who married d year or two ago the widower of the DedullIul lduy WHO Was ohSc upCH ot time Miss Mary Letter of Chicago. The name of CurZon, however, seems synonymous with beauty, as far as it's feminine holders are concerned, for the Viscountess Curzon of whom am speaking has for long time been proclaimed one of England's most beau tiful women. I believe that this was the criticism passed upon her by no less a parsonage than the King of Spain when he was last in England. Like so many Spaniards he vastly ad- mires fair women, as his choice of a consort in Queen Virtoria Eugenie goes to prove. Lady Curzon is also very fair and her large blue eyes and clear white complexion make her con- spicuously charming.
 And speaking of pretty women I was interested one recent Sunday evening in a little group I saw dining at a famous and very bohemian restaurant in Regent street called the Cafe Roy al I can think of no place in America to which l can compare this old-fasn-

 Soon all about him are smoking and continue doing so until the 10-minute interval is over and work begins again.

 As a rule. the former Emperor is ex- tremely talkative. He dwells greatly on happenings in Germany, both past and present. Often he is in a com plaining mood, when he planes all and sundry for what has occurred. It does not seem to enter his mind that any of the fault lies with him At these times he expresses sorrow for the asperity of his utterances. On other occasions-these are more rare-ho closes up like a clam and not a word can be drawn from him.
