And it comes back to me now as

to serve his day. Most of the aqlc-
lent and honorable frauds, tyran-
MES and wrongs come from dead
people, and not from the living.
One of the oldest desires in the
human breast is to live after
death. 1t is co-evil with humity. a
belief In personal immortality is
good, but efforts to impose our
wills upon our children's child
To keep your name on the se-

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says 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 loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is 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
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes q delightful, effer.

THE HOUNDS OF SPRING

Have you written your Spring
Editorial yet?
AS for ourselves we hereby an
nounce our intention of foregoing
this journalistic rite, already so
solemnly celebrated in most up-to
date news shops. Perennial expert
ence has taught US that it is, at
base,a mere Subconscious reaction
NOT a process of celebration at
all but symptom of the delight
full rabies so contagious when the
hounds of Spring are on winters
traces" A hoarse shout Of pleas
urea few paragraphs of pretty
piffle,an agonized little nosegay
of poetic odds and ends followed
by bit of writer's cramp, and the
mysterious impulse is accomplish
ed.
But why delegate so primal a
function to your favorite news
PAPER? Before the first Druids in
vented the first runes our Neol-
ithic ancestors at seed time gath
cred in painted hordes to watch
some superfluous aunt or cousin
writhe in the smoke of the sacrifi-
cial alter. This undoubtedly, was
their Spring Editorial, and, judy
ing by somewhat similar family
impulses that still persist, good
time was had by all-except the
victim.
The young gentleman who, the
other day, suddenly found HIM
self transported to all the frcpt
pages from the floor of the sub
way where he had fallen on his
ardent knees to pop the question
| to a perfectly strange young lady
was merely writing his Spring
Editorial. 1t was his expression
of opinion regarding the advent
of the season. The notorious rcos-
ters of Winstead, Conn.,, which
begin to lay eggs about the mid
die of March, the tot who gleeful-
ly filings himself into the first
mud puddle, the sedate old gen.
tleman fondly displaying the ear
hest rose in his buttonhole, the
miss who slips you a shy cosmetic
smile en- the avenue as she hurries
by are all doing the same thing
writing their Spring Editorials.
Even the stock market cenotaph
o the saddest of arithmetic, obeys
hat impulse and starts abound
ng like a gambling lamb.
Naturally, you will develop your
awn method for your own edite-
ial. Some do it with bottle of
nix, others with a ,bushel of ferti-
iizer spread among the spring on
ions, and still others, alas. with
quart of "hootch." But try at
least to do it for yourself, and
don't depend on newspaper.
Those who still expect to. ex-
tract their Spring Editorial from
is are the hopelessly civilized
,eople who spend their time por-
ng over calendars and adding up
he signs of the zodiac in their al
manacs while their mates dance
COR JOY in Gods glad sunshine on
he green banks and bonnie braes
of natures own contriving. New

TIME TO LAY OFF
RETAIL MERCHANT


Ii there is any class of people
who have been hard hit by the re-
cent change in conditions, it is
the retail merchants, says the
Manson, Iowa, Journal. We hear
much of the distress of the far
mer, and the strain the bankers
have been laboring under is Of
knowledge to all. But have you
heard of any general movement
to assist the retail merchant in
these times of stress? Yet no line
Of business has been hit harder
than that of the local retail mer-
chant the man you meet every day
;nd the one who supplies your
daily needs.
When the slump in prices came.
it was the retail dealers who car
ried the load. The manufacturers
and jobbers were hit hard, it is
true, but they are in many cases
short on supplies and their loss
while heavy, was not in proper
.ou 10 the small retail dealers In
site of this well known fact the
tail merchant has not only not
me in for any special consider
alto, but has been heaped with a
lot of unmerited abuse.
How many times has one run
across such statements as, whole
sale price have come down but the
retail dealers do not seem to have
found it out?" We have met with
this statement in trade journals
and business reviews Of weekly
and daily papers. 1t has appeared
so often that many have excepted
it as true. Yet if any purchaser
of family supplies will compare
the prices paid today and those
paid two years ago, they will
know that it is far from the truth.
During the past year the invoice
price of goods on the shelves of
the retail merchant has been re-
duced from 20 to 40 per cent. On
"a $4,000 stock this means a loss
Of from $4,000 to $4,000. 1t means
that he merchant has taken loss
Of that much on goods. Is it any
wonder that many merchants have
been forced to the wall?
What is more, the overhead cost
Of doing business is greater than
it was before the war. Wages of
help has cot fallen to that Of The
pre-war period. Rents in many
cases are higher, and fuel and
lights are higher. All these things
comb:lle to make che retail mer-
chants path anything but rose
strewn highway.
II hct c.,mes to the farmer. in
directly it will come to the mer-
ch:t.t, llut III the meantime he Is
struggling to keep the business
world afloat by making sacrifice
sales and taking his loss without
any hue and cry. So just rememb-
er the local merchant has his
troubles and is still your friend
let he is doing his share to bring
about better conditions and help
the old world back onto its feet.
It will take time, but we believe
things are slightly on the upgrade
and if everyone will do his part
nd go to work all will be we'll.
Prosperity will not come to few.
1t must come to all and the man
who insists On excessive wages
while condemning the merchant
who is trying to save his business
life is not going to profit by his
ste1d.
