SUFFRAGIsTs LACK VOTES.
Still They Claim a Fighting Chance of
Winning Delaware.

DOVER, Del, March 29-On the open
ing of the second week of the Delaware
legislature, which has been called into ex-
tiaordinary session to consider the ques-
tion OF ratifying the woman suffrage fed
eral amendment and to act on several leg
islative propositions of state interest, both
suffrage and anti-suffrage leaders are still
expressing confidence that their respec-
tive forces will win. If Delaware rati-
ties before the Legislature adjourns the
special session, it will be the Both state
necessary to write the amendment into
the constitution of the United States.
Suffrage leaders while not claiming that
they have sufficient votes in both houses
to ratify, said their workers have been
inactive since the legislators went home
Friday and they expect their work will
show results before final vote is taken.
Antisuffrage supporters, in claiming
they have the advantage, insist that the
ratification resolution will be defeated,
basing their declaration ON assertions
made by members of the senate and
house

BISON A NOBLE ANIMAL.
Buffalo" Jones Made Appeal to Congress
That Saved Animals.

The late Buffalo" Jones, who died at
the age Of 10, came to the Western plains
in 1866 and became a professional buffalo
hunter, and later tried to atone for his
cussedness,' as he put it, "by making up
a private herd and thereby saved the
buffalo from becoming extinct He was
an authority on the habits of the wild
buffalo and often on his visits to the
Office of the Kansas City Star he had
given many interesting facts about these
noble animals which were numerically
slaughtered by so-called civilized man.
While he was making his fight in Wash
ington to get Congress to make an
appropriation to save the buffalo from ex-
tinction by placing herds in some of the
national parks. he said:
The bison is an animal perfectly train
ed to take advantage of his environments
His instinct sIlrpasses that of the shrewd-
est observation-disclosures for ages he main
tanned himself where the cattle of the
ranchman are now dying There is nc

of corn meal and raisins. Here S his
story:

Then my wife got me out of bed in a
hurry by announcing that the house
smelled like a brewery. You see [
had left the mixture to drip into a
crock in the kitchen overnight, and
the warmth of the room helped fer
mentation wonderfully; too wonderful
ly, in fact.
"Well, l set about to get rid of the
smell and its source, and after squeez-
ing the bag containing the ingredients
started for the garbage can with it.
Where are you going to put that?''

Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This

of grapes and lemon jhice, combined
with lithia, and has been used fol
generations to clean clogged kidneys

also to neutralize the acids in urine
