SEEMS A LOT OF US WERE
ENTIRELY OUT OF LUCK

Washington, Sept. 8.-If you
didn't get nine gallons of intoxi.
eating liquors last year, you were
out of luck. If, in the same period
you failed to receive 800 cigarettes
rs cigars and a half pound of
chewing tobacco or snuff, your luck
stone must have been off watch.
That is the conclusion of govern
ment statisticians who have figured
out that for every man, woman and
child in the United States last
year there was consumed 9.17 gal
Ions of liquor, and the above listed
amount of cigarettes, cigars and
tobaccos.
Thirty-nine billion factory made
cigarettes were consumed in this
country of 100,000,000 persons, or
800 per capita. Altogether, 55,-
000,000,000 cigarettes were made
here, but 16,000,000,OO0 were ex-
ported.
The combined production of CT
CARS in American factories during
the last year was 1923, 100000.
Chewing tobacco and snuff aggre-
gated 427,000,000 pounds.
Anti-liquor legislation has reduced
the per capita consumption of in
toXicating beverages from 22.79 gal
Ions in 1916 to 9.17 gallons last

Prescription Used
By Old Physician
For Many Years
Nash Bros, Manufacturing Drug
gists, Now Putting Il Out.


Your doctor will tell you that it
is impossible to cure all kidney
troubles. This is true. Neverthe-
less, ii the right remedy is used,
relief is often secured at once,
thereby avoiding bladder disease and
rheumatism which are results of
urinary disorders. The well known
firm of Nash Brothers are carefully
compromising an old prescription
used for many years by an old
family doctor with attendent phe-
nominal success.
This prescription contains Buchu
Usa Ursa, Juniper Berries, Corn
Silk, Potassium Acetate and Hex
amethylenamine Tetramine in cor.
rect proportions. Nash Brothers, in
order to identify it and thus be able
to guarantee it, put it out under
the name of Nash's Kidney Remedy
They have so much confidence in
its beneficial results that they say
if the first bottle does you no COCO
the druggists must give you back
your money and charge it to them
IF you are suffering from kidney
disorders, if your back aches, il
your bladder pains you, if you have
rheumatism, get a bottle of thi:
good old remedy at once from your
druggist. Ask for Nash's Kidney
Remedy, large bottle in blue
carton, price Soc. Sold by P. R

A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of a
remedy for kidney troubles and
backache, it is a good plan to try
Doan's Kidney Pills. They are
strongly recommended by Mariana
people.
Mrs. w. G. Chambers, s13 Cher
ry street, Mariana, says: about
two years ago | was troubled with
my back. My kidneys were very
irregular in action, and l had a
sort of dull heavy pain in back just
across my kidneys day and night.
When stopped over l could hardly
straighten up again. A friend adj
vised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills,
SO did. After using two boxes of
Doan's | felt as we'll as ever. My
back is now strong and my kidneys
give me no trouble at ALL"
Price soc at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mrs. Chambers had. Foster.

Experts DistiH Gas
From Ordinary StralU

q d 3
Washington, Sept. 8.-Gas which
possesses explosive qualities suffi-
cient to drive an automobile and
which also may be used for pur-
poses of illumination is being pro-
duced at the Arlington, (Va.) ex-
perimental farm for the Department
of Agriculture, from the destruc-
tive distillation of ordinary field
straw. In making this announce
ment experts of the department
added that the possibilities of
straw gas are not yet fully deter
mined"
A special force has been detailed
to the Arlington station; to continue
the test with various straws and
to work out model plant for the
distillation of the gas.
IF a suitable unit can be con-
structed,' the announcement said,
$50 that the farmers initial cost will
be small, it seems likely that the
straw gas may have a certain eco
nomic value in sections of the
country where the raw material is
now considered as waste and is
burned off or left to rot on the
fields"
Distillation of gas from straw UNI
der the process now being used at
Arlington, it was said, was first ac-
complished by George Harrison, a
Canadian engineer, in 1914.

THE BLAME
(Ry Edgar A. Guest.l

(By Edgar A. Guest.)
When Walter Notanickel fell in love
with Isabel Lee,
Her parents said: "Good heavens
Such a match can never be!
This young man is beneath her; he'd
disgrace our family name;
To have him for a son-in-law would
be a lasting shame"
SO they promptly said to Mabel she
must choose another spouse,
And they ordered all the servants
not to let him in the house.
Now Walter Notanickel heard the
order and he said:
Though the old folks no not like
me, it's not them l want to wed
They can think up names to call me
It'll their brains are in a whirl,
But they'll wake up some fine morn
ing and they'll find I've got
the girl"
And fair Mabel said to Walter:
"Spite of all my parents say,
I will take you for my husband" So
one night they ran away.
Now the honeymoon is over, and
fair Mabel sits at night
And sadly realizes that her parents
had it right, i,
For Walter Notanickel has turned
out to be no good
And is treating pretty Mabel as her
father said he would;
And the old folks sit in sorrow, and
they say that it's shame,
But they never think one minute
that for this match they're to
blame.

LOO.
The Taft Roosevelt Wilson cam
,paign Of 1912, with women voting
in IL states, showed a voting per-
centage of 1872. The highest voting
percentage in the woman, suffrage
states Of the west was that Of
Montana being .389. Illinois in
which In 1916 women voted for
the first time for president east
of the Mississippi river, voted .357
Of her population, as against a per-
centage of 1877 in 1912, when only
men voted.
The figures indicate that women
take as readily to the ballot box in
the east as in the west The rate
Of increase hitherto on account of
women voting has ranged in the IL
states from the lowest, 1O7 in Arr
IONA, to 100, the highest in Illi-
nois. If conditions were practically
the same in all the states, with wo-
men having the nationwide suffrage
the increase in the vote on their ac-
count should be .135.
But the disposition to vote va
ries in the different states. The
solid south for instance, has never
voted higher than .1l5 per cent of
the population. The antipathy to
woman suffrage Is 80 general in the
southern states that it is not at all
likely they will do other than low
er the average for all the states OF
the voting population.
On the basis of these figures the
increase in the presidential vote
this year should not be much over
10 per cent, bringing the grand
total to about 10000, O00.-Wash-

Dental ballots, by reason of women
suffrage? In the states in which
women have been voting show their
electoral minds have gone along
for the most part willingly with

they will continue coupling with

It now seems likely that the nine
teenth amendment, giving women
the right to vote in presidential
elections, viii be ratified, with Ten

to make the necessary 36 or three
fourths. In the last election wo-
men voted for president in the IL
