I Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Eat Less Meat and Take
 Salts

Rheumatism is easier to avold than to cure, states a well-known authori- ty, We are advised to dress warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid exposure , eat less meat but drink plenty Of good water.
 Rheumatism is direct result Of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce uric acid which IS absorbed into the blood. It IS the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin arc also a means of freeing the blood Of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fall to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accommodating and circu- lating through the system. eventually setting in the Joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts: put a tablespoons full In a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities.

The grounds were that 1t might destroy some of the good laws for women al- ready won by hard fighting, and some laws that were badly needed from feminine standpoint. As an instance, the law protecting women following maternity. She said Law yers themselves have not agreed that the blanket amendment would be all together good all the way round"
 Establish Understanding
 Concerning the American con- ference, Mrs. Park also said: "Wom- en can go long way toward estab- fishing worldwide understanding"
 Mrs. Park arrived in Birmingham on the 12 o'clock noon train, leaving at D. m. en route to Jackson, Miss. On Friday she will return to Mont gomery. She had lunch first with the local executive committee oH the League of Women Voters, and then later made her address before the leagues first regular meeting since the New Year.
 Other matters which interested the conclave was a talk made on the pro- posed bond issue of the county board of revenue by President Dick Ball Mrs Solon Jacobs queried whsther or not any of the money could be used for helping out the Hillman hos pital lack of funds, and he said no the bonds were not voted for that purpose. She declared it didn't seem any trouble to call on people for bond issues for roads and things. but very difficult to devise ways and means for public health.
 Other speakers were Charles liar old, who talked on good roads; James Hawkins, county tax collector, and Judge Hugh Locke The latter told of the importance of the vote. a nota- ble thing he said being:
 Some women are & little timid about registering and voting. They should overcome this, Some of them also are afraid of being called for jury duty. Some have not yet seen the vital necessity of voting. There is some lethargy. But there Is SO much need of best hearts and purest motives to solve so many of our vi- tai questions they should vote." Women, he felt, would be always for the common good.
 Mrs. Park was graciously intro duced by Mrs. Johnston, and at the close of the meeting Mrs. Solon Jacobs told the audience of the com ing housewives fair, which will in- troduce local women to the prod ucts made by local manufacturers. The members pledged their earnest support and endorsement. Mrs. Park was so delighted with the local fair idea she begged leave to tell other leaguers about it on her journeys about that the idea might be used in other communities.

Plan for Conversion of Coal Into
Electric Current Where
II Is Mined.
IT WOULD MEAN VAST SAVING
Transportation of the Fuel Would Be
Avoided, and Fewer Men Would Be
Required in One Branch
of Worlds Work.

Woshington.-A plan for the con-
version of coal into electrical power at
the mouths Of coal mines and trans
uniting the currents to the industrial
consuming centers has been called to
the attention of the President, Secre-
tary of Commerce Hoover and other
high officials of the government.
In proportion to its value, both in
money and in heating power, coal is
Unfortunately bulky. More than one
third of the total railroad freight of
the United States is coal. On some
roads In coal-producing sections coal
amounts to 50 per cent of all the
freight hauled. A very large portion
Of this coal is railway fuel--that is.
coal 10 fire the engines which haul
the trains.
Louis Brandels, now an associate
Justice of the Supreme court of the
United States, In his brief in the Five
Per Cent case before the interstate
commerce commission, estimated that
when all items of cost to the railroads
Of buying and hauling their own coal
were added, the total would be $3.50
OO0,00d Since that estimate was
made, prices and costs have increased
and the railroad coal bill has amount
ed to S7000O0.O0O.
To transport coal To meet the Amer
lean demand, 100000 cars are en-
pl0yed annually and OF these 2.6OO-
600 cars are employed in hauling coal
and other traffic These figures have
been died with the interstate com
merca commission.
Tho commission has found, in one
OF its Investigations into the coal traf-
fic, tAat approximately o. per cent Of
all the coal cars return to the mines
empty.
These figures give nm impression Of
the extent to which the transportation
system Is burdened with the move
ment of this bulky material and show
how much more railroad equipment
would be available for general freight

could be handled In another manner

Great Northern, the Michigan Central,
the New York Central. the New York.
New Haven & Hartford, the Norfolk
& Western, the Pennsylvania and the
Southern Pacific system already OPP
crate by electricity. Benefits found
are reduction in fuel cost, in main
tenance cost, elimination of coaling
engines, increased tonnage per train,
increased speed on grades, increased
reliability, reduced train crews, In
creased safety, reduced damage and
wear on equipment, reduced deprecia-
tion on tracks and improved atmos-
pheric conditions. Noise also is elm
mated. The child of the future may
not identify a railroad train as
'choo-Choo"
Electric Operation Cheaper.
All operating costs considered, the
experts figure that there is q net saw
ing Of % per cent in electric opera
tion of railroad trains as compared
with steam. An analysis made by the
Norfolk & Western railroad revealed
that the fuel cost Of running an cleo
trio locomotive 100 miles was $4495,
compared with a cost of $72.42 for
steam locomotive.
1t is estimated that power can be
transmitted by cable for a distance
of 200 miles before the leakage makes
the transmission wasteful. In many
sections of the country no railroad
is more than 200 miles distant from a
coal mine But in the non-coal-produc-
ing regions. the mine-mouth electrical
plants would be supplemented, under
the plan, by hydro-electric power
plants.
The nation is rich in water power,
by far the greater part Of which Is
undeveloped. The general scheme of
railroad and Industrial electrification
would include greater power develop
ment from the streams. Between
these hydro-electric plants and the
coal-consuming power plants the coun-
try could be covered with a network
of power cables which would serve
every purpose.
Some coal movement would con-
tinue, such as that for domestic heat
ing, but the great bulk of the coal
transported to run railroads and fac
tories would not leave the mines Its
energy would be shipped by wire
Such stupendous development
could not be realized in a day. 1t
would be the work of many years, but
with the forces of the government,
supplemented by the support of the
great industrial and railroad corpora
tions, 1t might be a feasible undertake
