gan using Doan's Kidney Pills. This
pain would take me very suddenly and
hurt severely for hours; then it would
disappear and not return for weeks.

my head. The kidney secretions, too,
were unnatural in color, being dark and
sometimes cloudy. / took a few boxes
of Doan's Kidney Pills for these all

Curfew Has Worked Well.

In the Middle ages bell was rung
90 a signal for fires to be covered up
tor the night and consequently for the
people to go to bed The word curfew
is derived from the French words,
couvrir, to cover and feu, fire. In the
United States curfew has been
sounded to warn young people to be
within doors unless accompanied by
adults. 1t is said that over 5000
towns and cities in this country now
have curfew ordinances and some Of
them report as large decrease as
80 per cent in juvenile delinquency
since the enactment of such laws

TO BE lNAUGURkTED FRIDAY
Next President of the United States
Whl Be Sworn In on Day Con-
sidered Unlucky.

Whichever of the two presidential
candidates tacks his nameplate on the
door of the White House next year will
have to be inaugurated on Friday.
One-third Of the q presidents of the
United States were inaugurated on
Monday and only three on Friday, one
Of whom, Lincoln, was assassinated,
and Pierce failed of reelection.
Friday has always seemed to be a
dark, drear and unlucky day for pres
idents. Tyler, Polk and Pierce died
on Friday.
Leap year seems to have been mad.
Presidential offspring of leap years
have been Taylor, who died in office;
Pierce, who gained neither fame nor
q second term, and Johnson, the only
president impeached. AS a season
for presidents to be born in, late
spring and early summer are impossi-
bic, and the later summer is scarcely
to be thought of.
No president ever was born in May
or June, the only chief executives
midsummer has provided the nation
being J. @. Adams, born in July, and
BENJAMIN Harrison. With one excep-
ton, aside from the two already men
toned, presidential birthdays have
been restricted to the period between
October and April. Eight executives
were born in late autumn. eight In
winter and eight in early spring. The

The Salt in the Sea.

The saline matter in the ocean is
sufficient to make a block of salt
measuring 100000 cubic miles. If
spread over the entire surface of the
United States, exclusive of Alaska, it
would form crust more than mile
and half deep. One per cent of the
content of salt in the ocean would
cover all the land areas of the globe
to a depth of go feet-United States

Mr.. D. G. Ristad,
Editor Wisconsin Tobacco Reporter,
Edgerton, Wisconsin.
Dear Sir:
The Ralph Amundson Post
No. 80 of the American Legion re-
spectfully requests you to publish
the following portion of the proceed
ings of their meeting held last eve
ming in the legion club rooms.
( The matter of Mr.. d. c.. Gle
circulating written statement quot
ing the Post Commander as saying
at the legion meeting that Mr.. Gle
was disloyal and is now and always
has been against the American
Legion was brought up. That this
statement had been made was denied
by the Post Commander and several
legion members, and in the face of
this denial Mr.. Gle published and
circulated a printed pamphlet con-
tanning the following remark "This
poison has found its way to certain
leaders of the American Legion who
were told according to soldier boys
who were present at their last meet
ing) that legion boy must vote
against Gle because he is now and
always has been against the Ameri-
can Legion"
All the members who were present
at the meeting were questioned and
all denied hearing that remark OF
any remark even remotely approach
ing it made during or after the meet
ing. It was therefore unanimously
voted to go on record as declaring
the purported statement absolutely
false and to state that if the Legion
were to believe it to be any other
than a fabrication on Mr.. Giles part
he must publish the names of those
who so slandered us.
Mr.. F. w. Schoenfeldt's remarks
at the school board meeting in which
he seemed to intimate that non-
taxpayer had no right to vote and his
saying that he as one of the largest
tax payers did not propose to have
any such thing "crammed down his
throat" was discussed.
The Legion unanimously went or
record as believing that if taxation
is to be test of the right to vote
that ex-service men many of whon
are now in hospitals have paid Their
tax and should be as much entitled
to vote as the largest tax payer.
After being told of Mr.. Giles work
during the war and his attitude
towards the legion, the member.
voted unanimously as not question

100000 VETERANS OF WORLD
 WAR WITHOUT JOBS MARCH 1

NEW YORK, March 19.-There were 100000 veterans of the world war out of work in the United States on March l last, according to an esti- mate received by the American Leg ion. This is a reduction of about 10O,- 900 from the peak" of more than 500,O00 jobless ex-service men in the country shortly after January l last, and the legion reports state there is promise of further improvement.
 The survey of the national situation on which these figures are based was made by the American Legion Weekly official publication of the legion which states that the unemployment situation as affecting the veterans appears to have taken a turn for the better"
 Agencies Relieve Situation
 A chain of employment agencies operated by the legion in every state has done much to relieve the situa- ton, say the legion officials. The leg ion has been instrumental in obtain ing work for veterans, in discouraging the migration of unemployed men toward the great industrial centers and has encouraged a movement from cities to the farms. 1t has demanded that workers who left their positions to go to war should enjoy seniority rights on a par with those of military age who stayed at home.
 EX-service men have suffered more in proportion to their numbers than other workers, according to the leg ions survey, becatse of the operation of seniority rules and efficiency stan dards. Nearly a year is required for the returned veteran to get back to his stride in industry, according to the testimony of large employers or labor Another thing that has handi- capped the ex-soldier is his restless ness and nomadic tendencies, both products of the strain and circum- stances of war service.
 Believe Worst Is Past
 Reopening of factories and mills in the textile regions of New England and in the mining and industrial cen ters of Pennsylvania leads observers in those parts to believe the worst is past, according to the legion's survey. The automobile centers or Detroit. Cleveland and Indianapolis report a slight improvement of conditions. In Chicago conditions are stationary it is said.
 Throughout the agricultural middle west general movement from the cities and towns to the farms is re- ported The average ex-soldier had little taste for agriculture when he came. back from the war. 1t was hard to keep them down on the farm after they had seen Farce" They chose to work in the small factories or stores in the neighboring county seat,
