AN1ERICANIsM AND THE KHAN.

The fine word "Americanism'' is not
so popular as it was a year or two ago.
Like another admirable word, "pacifsm''
it has lost much of its virtue. 1t has
been used by so many groups and inter
ests to cloak un-American purposes that
It no longer goes unchallenged. Any man
or organization processing 100 per cent
Americanism" nowadays does not there
by disarm suspicion, but invites it. This
is lamentable, but it is the truth.
There is an obvious application to the
secret order known as Ku Klux Khan,
good deal of whose astonishing growth
has been due to its professed American
ism. The Khan is now being assailed as
an organization at variance with certain
oasic American principles. 1t is accused
# standing for religious and racial big
0try, for the creation of enmity among
classes of citizens whose real need is fra
ternity, for the denial of opportunity to
citizens born abroad, for the substitution
Of private and irresponsible coercion for
public and lawful authority.
The publication of the history and the
secrets" of this order by the New
York World has focused national atten-
rion on the Khan. Congressman are talk

IF justice is said to be looking in to the
matter. There certainly ought to be an
public inquiry of some
kind, if for no other purpose than to
yindicate the Invisible Empire" if, as
its emperor" maintains, it has been
yrievously wronged. Americanism itself
demands that, and Americanism must be
regardless of the fate of any
hing smaller than America itself

TAKE SALTS TO
 FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat If You Feel Back achy or Bladder Troubles You
 Salts Is Fine for Kidneys

Meat forms uric acid which ex- cites and overworks the Kidneys Tn their efforts to filter it from the system. Regular eaters of meat must flush the kidneys occasionally. You must relieve them like you re lieve your bowels; removing all the acids, waste and poison, else you feel a dull misery in the kidney re- zion, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stom- ach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheu- matic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment; the channels often get irritated, obliging you to get up two or three times during the night
 To neutralize these irritating acids and flush off the body's urinious waste get about four ounces of lad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine and bladder disorders disappear. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimu- late sluggish kidneys and stop blad- der irritation. lad Salts is ineX- pensive; harmless and makes a de- lightful effervescent lithia- water drink which millions of men and women take now and then, thus avoiding serious kidney and blad- der diseases.

HART AS "PETTlcOATs" PROVED REGULAR COMEDY.

John Petticoats" is only the name of the Paramount-Artcraft picture at the Coliseum tonight for the last time. It's the name William s. Hart who stars in the film, gave himself when he discovered that the modiste shop which he inherited from his deceased uncle was not a saloon. as he in his lumberjack fashion rather hoped, but was a dainty little estab- lishment selling ladies' frocks and furbelows. According to the story, Bill is so put out by this knowledge that he poses as the store detective to hide his ownership of the place. But murder will out, and after sev- eral exciting adventures and tenn pestous love affair, Bill admits his depravity and wins forgiveness and the girl.
