 CONSIDER CHINA.

Rigid application of the third princi- pie, would deny for instance, .Japan'S s claims to special interests" in shan tung Mandhuria. part of MoR- golia, three lost provinces which the Chinese came to Washington in frank hopes of getting back
 The third principle pledges the powers ito use their influence for the purpose of effectually establishing and maintaining the principle of equal opportunity for the commerce. and in territory of China
 The question that arises under the interpretation of this principle is whether the China of 50 years ago or the China of today is to be taken as a basis for consideration. The map of China has changed much In 50 years the powers kept ntbbling at her territory through outright an neXation and the less bold, but equal ly efficacious method of spheres of influence"
 Root proposals are a part of the Hughes program for the settlement of Far Eastern matters. Submission of China's own program last week, while done with the full knowledge and approval of the United States. did not materially impress the other pow CTS, notably Japan.
 Secretary Hughes saw, that despite
  China, which featured Saturdays sec ret session, there was no disposition to accept the Chinese "bil1 of rights except as a 'tbasis for discussion which might prove endless.
 The American delegation wanted to get the powers definitely on record accepting something with regard to China, and the Root program was the result. It is sufficiently broad so that anything in the whole category of Chinese wrongs can properly be brought up under it.
 Today the real work started on ad- justment of'China's intricate and com plicated affairs, with the acceptance by the powers of the Root program as the foundation on which to build.
 While the principal delegates went to the Chinese problem today the naval experts continued their technical dis cussion of the ship program.
 Beyond the general statement that progress is being made" there is no indication that the opposition of Japan to being relegated to a poor third in the naval strength of the world is in any way disappearing.

RADIOGRAPHY AIDED BY
 SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY

London Nov. 21.-An important sctentic discovery, making 1t possible for surgeons to obtain more accurate location of foreign objects in the hu- man body than is at present attain able, was disclosed at the annual ex- hibition of the Royal Photographic society. ,=--~-- ----,- --,-- -----------s-.-

The new process, it is claimed, will enable op- orators to take a photograph of the growth, showing not only what it is. but also it's exact location, depth and position.
 It is also claimed hat the new process will considerably reduce the risk of X-rays dermatitis, which has ended fatally in the case of more than a dozen research pioneers, and at the same time permit a larger number of exposures to be taken without inconveniencing the patient.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
 BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have been eating too
 much meat

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eat ing too much meat, says a well known authority Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and logsy. When your kidneys get slug gish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; remov- ing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache. sick headache, dizzy spells: your stomach sours, tongue ia coated. and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during .he night.
 Either consult a good, reliable phy- sician at once or get from your phar- macist about four ounces of lad Salts; 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, com b!ped with lith.a, dnd has been used for generations to clean Ind stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize .cfds in the urine so it no longer ir- ritates, thus ending bladder weak aess.
 lad Salts is life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, can not injure and makes a delightful, e. ervescent Whitewater drink.-AdV.

Baby Show to Prove
OF Much Interest

There is nothing like baby show
to attract interest and hold the at
tention of everyone. But the Baby
Show at Pineville" which is to be one
of the' many features at the annual
May festival in the City hall ON the
afternoon of April 80, will be unlike
any other baby show ever held.
Children are to be the actors in
this, but that doesn't mean it will not
be we'll done. On the contrary it
promises to be one of the cleverest
things the little folk of Augusta have
done in years. The principals of the
play will be Hope Adams, Margaret
Wyman, Charlotte Longfellow, Dor
othy Marble, Barbara Burr, Frances
Pishon and Frances Kinsman. There
will also be chorus of Is children.
The May festival this year, which
will be held from to o'clock in the
afternoon of the 30th, will be filled
with good things. 1t is to be given
under the direction of the Charming
Guild of the Unitarian church, and
the proceeds will go to the support of
a French orphan and to help the
children's ward in the Augusta Cen
eral hospital.-Adv.

ICON" TALMADGE
AND HOLMAN DAY
ON BILL TODAY

Connie" Talmadge and Holman
Day are the stars of the Colonial pro-
gram today. OF course Major Day
himself doesn't appear as an actor
on the screen, but the first of his
series of Maine stories taken in and
around Augusta will be presented, so
that it is almost as good as having
the famous Maine author doing a bit
of acting. This first Maine two
reeler is 1.-The Two-Fisted Judge, one
of the best and most interesting
yarns Day ever wrote and it makes
a rafting good picture. In view or
the fact that hundreds will want to
see it, it has been suggested by Man
ager Appleby that all who can attend
the matinee to relieve the congestion
that is sure to come in the evening.
In addition to these two things, an
Outing Chester and an International
News will be given.
Constance Talmadge appears in one
of her most entertaining pictures. In
fact, some have said it is her very
best offering, for THE Perfect
Woman" which is a First National
production, is rafting good comedy
that is far different from the usual
run and surely more enjoyable.
Miss Talmadge as Mary Blake falls
in love with a millionaire, Jim
Stanhope. She feels the love surge.
and to always be near the shrine of
her affections, Mary applies for a po-
sition in his office, unaware of the
fact that Jimmy's hobby. is resisting
women. He barricaded himself
against the charms of the other sex,
/ by employing character reader who
could spot any designing young
ladies at half mile. Mary runs
head-long into the character expert
in seeking the position, and the COM
| petent reader of innermost thoughts
unceremoniously shows Mary to the
door. Mary is wise, however, and
goes home to adjust her homely dis
| guise-

on the second trip. and the subse-
| quent development of this entertain
ing plot will be shown in THE Per-

the time. Girls respond well to the
influence of such a meeting with it's
fine music and group consciousness.
The greatest recent improvement
is the opening of the central building,
an imposing brick structure with
many exits, wide staircases, and
modern construction in every par
ticular. The weakness of the roof
has been remedied and the building
can now be used freely. In the
basement are the storerooms, laun-
dry, kitchen and dining room. The
laundry machinery will soon be in
place, and the power laundry will
remove much of the hard drudgery
from the girls in the cottages. Here
is also the refrgerating plant, and a
room which will ultimately be f1oored
for a gymnasium No gymnasium
equipment is on hand at present.
Near the gym are toilets and shower
baths.
The main floor contains the BUSH
ness office. library, medical room, and
school rooms, all equipped or to be
equipped in the most approved man
ner. Upstairs are the fine audi
forum, and rooms for the high
school girls, with an officers room in
each corner Of the building. II
