IF BACK HURTS
 BEGIN ON SALTS
Flush your kidneys occasionally if you eat meat
 regularly.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kid ney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, head aches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorder come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment irregular of pas sage or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable phar- macy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for 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 to flush clogged kidneys and stimu- late them to activity, also to neu- tralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent Whitewater dring which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoid ing serious kidney complications.

COMPETING FOR FOREIGN MARKETS.

European effort to regain trade that has been given to America the beginning of war in Europe is a reminder that Americans must manu- facure the best articles the market and sell at close margins if they would retain the great foreign trade that been developed in the last six seven years At the present time the low price of European exchange is operating the advantage of our com petors. As compared with American wages those of Europe and Japan are very low if them in dollars and in this country pay wages in that money.
 This is a situation that tariff makers must bear in mind when they arranging schedules if they do not wish handicap Americans in the foreign ma rkets There uQuesionably producers in this country that struggling for the home market and they should have such protection they may abso- uutely need but to the tariff where it is not absolutely necessary is add to the obstacles that American exporters overcome in order to hold foreign markets.

SUCCESSFUL CHAUTAUQUA.

The success of the Chautauqua at Juneau this week was creditable alike to the members of the Chautauqua company who presented programs of a very high order the management of the organiza tion which was thorough, painstakng and honest, and the local Chautauqua Committee which guaranteed the Anoney brought the entertainment here and pre- scented its merits to the public in such way as to make pay it's way. The concerts and lectures that Hhe people of Juneau have heard during the last week cannot fail to make for improvement. Firs-class talent appeared all the concerts, and the lectures by thinkers who had mastered the subjects they treated and whose facility of expression carried their messages home. They left those who heard them things to think of for sometime
 The members of the Chautauqua Company not only presented entertaining and informing program to the people of Juneau but the fine spirit and gracious with which they responded to every opportunity entertain the people made friends of everybody for the Chauauqua and themselves. The desire that the same company should Juneau year is unanimous.

(Long Beach, Cal, Press. )


 That college, high school and grammar school students of United States startlingly deficient in Knowledge of current events is the conclusion drawn from test among 100000 young American students by The Review of Reviews The questions propounded Were fair and simple without that catch quality which makes many sO-called tests unfair and ob- jectionable
 But of the 800 students answ erng the average was only A per cent of correctness The questions referred to places and issues frequently men, tioned in the newspapers and magazine press and some of the issues important in the life of the nation
 This shalowness and effectiveness of knowledge Of current events is depOrabe It nexcusable too Ter the means of acquiring this knowledege lie all about the boys and girls of today not possible in the days of their grandparents There are good news papers on every hand there good magaznes there are good books, with public libraries accessible to all there are lectures current events there are mo- ton pictures Of current events.

GERMANTS WANT AMERICANS TO STAY

It is not often that hears people news papers of country that is occupied by the troops of another express regret that occupying army is about give up it's occupation and depart from it's boundaries It has occurred two three times in the history of the United States Army but it not expected that the Germans would when the time arrived for troops to leave the Rhine However, accounts from that country say that Ger in the vicinity of the American forces there very desirious that the American occupation might continue long possible and news papers from Berlin expressing similar concern in the matter
 And this feeling cannot be mercenery in it's nature for the that Germany is compelled to bear all the costs of the American forces within her borders including the difference in exchange because she must pay officers and in dollars-gold The Berlin Tageblatt, in editorial typical of present German sentiment this subject.
 With the restoration of peace between
 America and Germany, the question that
 comes and to the front is: Will
 Gen. Allen and his troops be permitted
 hold the bridgehead COblenz? In the
 occupied territory itself, the wish is universal
 that the Americans may remain for a long
 while Despite the excessive value of the
 dollar and the corresponding cost of main
 tainng them, it is the general impression
 that the good work done by them unoff-
 cial mediators than offsets their cost.
 Anhow, every German schooboy around Cob
 lenz knows that if the Americans leave the
 French will take their place. But apart from
 the general feeling of welcome to and kind
 Illness towards the Americans the Rhine,
 there is the specific question of the personnel
 of the Rhineland Commission. Gen Allen has
 done some unfOrgettable work in this
 tion, but he remains the commander of the
 troops. and though he has a voice" in the
 commission he does thave vote it.
 As at present constituted the commission is
 in most unhappy position for Germany
 Were the Americans to remain and place
 regular member it speak them.
 Coblenz would rejoice and Germany with her.
