CONCEPTION0F MARRIAGE TO
 BE ATTACKED

MANCHESTER, England, Jan. 13 (by Associated Press) .-"Everything points to the near approach of a gen. eral, deliberate and sustained attack on the Christian conception of mar riage," declared the bishop of Here ford in an address at Manchester cathedral on "New Ideas of Mar riage."
 "The war has lowered the prestige of marriage in the thought of mny people and visibly endangered it's character" said the bishop. This has been accomplished partly by en- dowing women and girls with unpre- cedented independence and forcing them into a public prominence for which nothing in their previous ca reers had prepared them; most of all by shaking the whole fabric of civil ized society and bringing into open question the accepted principle of so- cial order, discrediting churches, breaking down authority and forcing under ruthless criticism the most ln- innate and fundamental assumptions of human conduct.
 sThe divorce court shows us he Anicture of a society governed by lm- pulse rather than by principle, swe .'t along by the currents of self-indulgelIt fashion rather than pursuing deter mined course by the direction of set tied convictions of personal duty

 Washington, D. C., Scout Troop No. 9, found two lost boys after q long search in the woods.
 Boy scouts of Black river, Jefferson county, New York; succeeded in carry ing practically everything from the first floor of a burning house. The fire had gained such headway that they were unable to save the goods on the second floor.

AMERICAN scOUTlNG's START

Everybody knows of the Boy Scouts, but few people are aware that one small boy in a crowded London street inadvertently planted the acorn that has grown into that sturdy oak, the Boy Scouts of America.
 ". D. Boyce of Chicago in 1909, on his way to d certain destination in London. lost his way in the devious mazes of that city. Pausing in un- certainty to get his bearings, he was confronted by a small boy who sa- inted and asked politely if he might manner and grateful for the timely offer of aid, Mr. Boyce accepted the lads guidance, and arrived at the goal, offered him q shilling. To his amaze ment the boy drew himself up, saluted with dignity and replied that he was boy scout, and scout never took tips for small deeds of courtesy. His curiosity piqued by this response, the American asked pertinent questions as to boy scouts, of whom he knew noth- ing at the time. He was promptly conveyed to the British scout head- quarters and introduced to Sir Robert Baden-Powell.
 When Mr. Boyce sailed for home he brought with him q trunkfnl of scout literature and determination that American boys should have scouting at once and effectively.

A gold-bearing gravel has been found by miners who have attempted to tunnel under the rim of the lava sheet. Drills will not penetrate the lava, the pros- pectors said. One "sourdough" miner H. L.

TO IDENTIFY MUMMY
London Officials in Something of a Quandary as to Disposition of
 "Old Jimmy"

One of London's problems at the present hour is what to do with q mummy that lies at the back of the Mansion house in one of the oldest churches of that ancient city No one knows where it came from, and the jocular element around the Mansion house describe it as "Old Jimmy-a former lord mayor of London" The rector is in quandary over it's dis posal. The figure is perfectly pre- served; eyes, hair, nose, teeth. nails and ribs.
 Inside the door of the mummy's box is q glass lid, which was removed a few days ago for the first time for many years. The mummy was covered with cobwebs, but was still in good condition. Tt feels like leather" said an onlooker as he touched "Old Jim my's" elastic ribs The rector invites suggestions from the public as to what to do with the mummy. The mystery as 10 it's identity arises from the fact that during the great London fire in 1866 it was hurriedly removed from another church and placed where it TOW lies, so as to escape the rayages of the conflagration.

Take a Glass of Salts if Your Back Hurts or Bladder
 Bothers.

If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted au- thority who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become slug gish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick head ache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi- ment the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the bodys urinous waste get four ounces of lad Salts from any phar- macy here; take a 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 has been used for generations 10 flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine. so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.

SCOUTS AID oVERWoRKED CATS

The boy scouts have rallied to the aid of Chicago's hard-pressed cats, and some much-dreaded infectious diseases will not spread further-not if the boys and the cats can help it.
 An intensive campaign for the ex- termination of rats and ground squir- rels has been launched by the scouts. Eight thousand scouts. taking with them some hundreds of rat terriers, are in search of the rodents.
 The most energetic boys and the best trained terriers will turk about South Water street, where the biggest rats are to be found.
