Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which helps to remove the body's urinous waste and stimulate them to their normal activity The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. Tn 24 hours they strain from 1t 50o grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital import ance of keeping the kidneys active.
 Drink lots of water--you can't drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morn ing for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of graves and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irrita- ton, thus often ending bladder weak ness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- Jure; makes q delightful effervescent lithia water drink, which everyone should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this: also keep up the water drinking. and no doubt you will won- der what became of your kidney trouble and backache.

TOWNLEY SAYS
LEAGUE PUT TOO
MANY CROOKS IN
MP Lacquer Advocates
Letting Politicians
Have Offices Now.

Lincoln. Neb.. Feb. OH a speech,
which occupied three hours, 4. c.
Townley. national president, told the
Nebraska Nonpartisan league state
convention here that the tactics now
pursued by the league make impossible
any lasting or substantial vitcory, and
that until the fight can be shifted
from the league itself, nothing can be
won. He said the thing to do is to
play practical politics.
He said he was forced to this con-
clusion by the fact that in the first
place, the league cannot win the of
fices; secondly, if they do win them,
they cannot hold them, and lastly, too
many rascals and incompetents were
put into office by the league
He said the league began its exis-
tence by saying it would have no deal
ings with the politicians. 1T went out
in the woods and got some mighty green
timber. some of which afterwards
proved pretty rotten, and tried to train
it to play politics against profession
ais" he said.
Il have come to the conclusion"
said Townley, that the thing the poll
ticians want most-the office-is the
cheapest thing we can give them. The
power of our program is not posses
sion of the offices. but in the minds of
the people. So far as / am concern
ed, the men we brought from the woods
as green timber can go back. The
league found itself worse off when it
got its own men into office. because
they were utterly unframed. and some
of us were unable to train them, be-
cause we did not ourselves know prac-
teal politics or statecrafts.'
The speech of Mr. Townley was the
feature of the convention. The innova-
tions he proposed occasioned lively
comment by delegates following his de-
parture for North Dakota.
