Approve. Proposed Bill

Mir Letters has several good req sons for hoping that the bill vii pass the legislature. He explains them after this fashion: Consider what a six inch trout amounts to, from the point of view of food, after it has been cleaned, an inch cut of when the Gail is severed and another inch when the head is removed. There isn't much left, that's q fact And 1t doesn't help the size of q trout to be kept for several hours in fsherman's basket after being taken from the water.
 Then. if a six inch trout is left in Che brook, it will go through the next spawning season. This means, when all six inch trout are concerned, thou sands more trout The next season Nr Trout s a far better fish to land Is larger. more gamey when hooked and when ready for Che frying pan. there is more of htm ta please the appetite for the sportsman Who eraves for urh dish

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS.
Says Backache Often Means You
Have Not Been Drinking
Enough Water.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
1t may mean you have been eating
foods which create acids, says a we'll
known authority. An excess of such
acids overworks the kidneys in their
effort to filter it from the blood and
they become sort of paralyzed and
loggy. When your kidneys get slug
gish and clog you must relieve them,
like you relieve your bowels, remov-
ing all the body's urinous waste, else
you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours,
tongue is coated, and when the wea-
Their 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
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys may then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid Of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to help clean and
sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the system, so they
no longer irritate, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure and makes a delightful, efferves

tence has brought into the Post Of

their crop of peaches was saved from
destruction by rotting, in the compile

cities in the Coos Bay district, where
peaches are not raised, were anxious
to buy the crop.

of the flood-swept home. Both wings
of the house were gone Not a sign
remained of barns or corrals.
Melody know Mercedes had come
up beside him, but he could not take
ms eyes away from the ruins.
The cowboy nerved himself to
face the girl beside him. She was
staring fixedly at all that was left OF
the once beautiful hacienda. 1t had
been the only home Mercedes had
ever known. Evedy childhood mem
DRY conferred within its walls. Under
other circumstances its destruc. ION
would have crushed her; but she had
been through too much this night al
ready. Her nerves and emotions had
lost the power to react to further
torture.
She was dazed by what she beheld
She wanted to dash into the ruins
and search with feverish haste for
Basilio, but trance-like legthargy
enveloped her. 1t frightened Melody
more than tears. His voice quavered
uncertainty as he spoke to her.
III take look inside, if you'll
wait out here"
mo, I'll go with you
you better not do that" the cow
boy begged. "Thingsn be torn up
pretty bad in there"
But B-B-Basilio" She hesitated
over the word.
4 tell you, we won't find him,
Senorita. He amt here"
1t was his old assertion. Mercedes
had moved ahead of him. If she
were determined to search the ruins,
it would be useless for him to try TO
hold her back. 1t would be better to
stay at her side and buck her up if
she did find anything.
1t took him some time to clear a
passage into that part of the house
which had escaped total destruction
A foot of mud and debris lowered
the floors. Furniture was piled on
end. Great holes gaped in the walls
where the plaster had given way.
Melody found a lamp upstairs. He
called time after time for the child
cried out, too, but they got no an
swer. With the aid of the light, they
went over the wreckage carefully,
but not trace of the child or Of the
two old servants was to be had.
Faith in his own prophecy began
to grow in the red-haired one.
Il knew somebody had got them
out" he stated.
Maybe they got lost when they
try to rum" Mercedes murmured
mounrfully.
mo! The food came to quick for
that. If they hadn't been warned
they'd be right here. Well find them
