U,ah's new auti-ciGarettn law IS now
In FULL force and effect. and the rest OF
the nation will no doubt observe us
workings with some curiosity. Not only
does the law prohibit the smoking OF
cI,arettes in public places. bur also
prohibits the giving away. sale eN-
change or barter Of tie coffin nails. 1t
Is also unlawful TO smoke cigars or
pipes IN public. but the sale OF 'hese
articles is not prohibited. Cigarettes
may be purchased outside the state and
smoked IN private.
For some reason the cigarette has &C
ouired a bad reputation. which cigars
and pipes have not No doubt thiS -
largely due 10 association OF ideas. %nce
the cigarette has long been coupled n
the public mind with moral AID phys!c'.
depravity. Possibly the cigarette d.d
begin its career under cloud. but It
has long since emerged from that posi-
ton. Men Of the htghest standing are
now seen smoking cigarettes. without
a though. that there IS anything Ques-
tionable aoout the practice.
The cigarette as a matter OF fact. con-
tains nothing mysterious or harmful
unless tobacco be. harmful Tobacco
from the same package may be placed
in a pipe and smoked by ono man, and
in rice paper and smoked by another.
Is the man who uses the rice paper
wrapper harmed more than the men who
uses the pipe? II so, why: And why
should the man who uses the rice paper
wrapper around his toh,cc" be subjected
10 any social or legal i=nominy from
which the pipe or cigar user Is exempt
II has been said that the cigarette
smoker has a tendency 70 smoke more
than the cigar or pipe smoker. That
may be Just criticism but Il - CRIT

cigarette itself.
In Utah the law r.ent.oned above was
passed BY the influence OF the Mormon
church. which Is also against the use
Of tea and coffee. No non-Mormon NOM
bers Of the.legisla.ure voted for the re-
striction. In view oE the fact that the
Mormon church - always seeking new
converts. this unpopular attitude would

tobacco, tea and coffee were much more
harmful than they are.

ONE OF THE WORST

One OF the worst lynChing cases In
history was that which occurred at
Mccormick, South Carolina. on Sunday
afternoon. Illegal 'nfict!on OF the

South. and sometimes happens IN the
North. but the Mccormick cas-" had fea-
lures that bring out human blood luS.
and ghoulishness IN an unusually vivid
manner
Ordinarily. lynchInGs in tho South are
conducted in wha, may be called IN

usually caught and then hanged or
burned. after which N" lyachers depart
quietly That IL bad enough. for II Is
an absolute violation CT law. which
guarantees every man a FAR trial BY a
Jury OF his peers.

IF BACK HURTS

Flush your kidneys occa- sionally if you eat meat
 regularly

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says q well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou bIe, nervousness, constipation, diZzi- ness, sleepIessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys
 The moment you feel a dull ache ir the kidneys or your back hurts, or 1T the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at- tended by sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and 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, combined q with Hthia and has been used for gen. e-ot.ons to flush clogged kidneys and si rrIulate them to activity, also to neu- traiize the acids. in urine so 1t no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder 6isorders-
 lad Sal is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink which all reg ular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding ser ious kidney complications.-Ad
