IF RHEUMATIC .iH
: EAT NO SWEETS
Saws Glass Of Salts Helps to
Overcome Rheumatism
Arid

rheumatism is easier to avoid
than to cure, states a well-known
authority. We are advised to
dress warmly, keep the feet dry,
avoid exposure, and above all,
drink plenty of good water and
avoid eating sweets of all kind.
Rheumatism is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from
food fermentation. 1t is the func-
ton of the kidneys to filter this
poison from the blood and cast 1t
out in the urine; the pores of the
skin are also a means of freeing
the blood of this impurity. In
damp chilly weather the skin
pores are closed, thus forcing the
kidneys to do double work; they
become weak and sluggish and
fail to eliminate this waste and
acids, which keeps accommodating
and circulating through the sys-
TEN. eventually settling in the
Joints and muscles, causing stiff
ness, soreness and pain, called
rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheuma-
tism get from any pharmacy about
four ounces of Jad Salts; put q
tablespoonful in a glass of water
and drink before breakfast each
morning for q week. This is help
full to neutralize acidity, remove
waste matter, also to stimulate the
kidneys, thus often Kidding the
blood of rheumatic poison.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and
is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and is used with excellent
results by thousands of folks who
are subject to rheumatism. ADV

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH
PORTLAND

While yet adhering to the opinion
that the Ku Klux are essentially
trouble makers, and the leaders
money makers, we are, however, I'M
able to understand why, If they are
DESTROYS of showing their faces In a
parade and doing so in an orderly
manner, they should be forbidden to
do so. 1t is, of course, possible we
do not know all there is to know
about it, but we are under the i'm
preston that any group OF orderly
persons has as good a right as any
other group to celebrate Columbus
Day or any other day agreeably to
the laws. If their doing so would
cause a riot it would seem to be the
job of the community to put a stop
to such a riot. The mayor of Port
land appears to think differently and
one might infer that Portland is in a
bad way.

EUROPE WASTING WEALTH IN
BOOZE

Long ago 1t was discovered one
might not eat his cake and have It,
too. Yet there ale some who think
they may spend their money and yet
have a plenty, and blame the rich or
the government If they do not.
1t takes money to buy rum, always
did, always will, and in too many in
stances this isn't the only price that
is paid.
Some would have us think Europe
wet is enjoying herself. Wayne B.
Wheeler, general counsel Of the
Anti-Saloon League, has been over
there and he arrived at an altogether
different conclusion. He says he
saw lot of drunkenness in England
and Germany. In England he saw
baby carriages parked outside the
saloon doors and mothers staggering
out when the saloon was closed. In
Germany he found the people, paid in
cheap money, spend 1t as quickly as
possible so it may not become worth
less on their hands. If inclined to
drink they become guzzlers instead
Of temperate drinkers.
Finland is attempting to be dry
and has so well succeeded that, not
withstanding certain countries have
boycotted her because she does not
admit their booze, her financial con-
dition Is steadily improving. In
deed he found Finland to be the only
European country SO far as he could
learn that squared her budget last
year and provided for reduction of
her national debt.
He concludes and appears to have
the facts to bear him out that if
purpose persists in being wet and
America in being dry this country
will be THE hope of the world,
financially, morally and socially"

religion within or without the de-
nominational Enclosures.
Among the more stable and con-
servative religious elements 1t
springs to life in the slogans of fun
damentalism. In more adventurous
quarters it has produced a host OF
preachers, teachers and writers who
are turning with q vivid and search
ing elouuence to the social mission
of religion and finding in the near
detectives of earthly betterment and
reform a new stimulation to evan
gelical zeal.
In still other environments, AS in
India under the lead of a Ghandi,
this new and subtle leaven breaks
out in strange and fanatiCal strivings
toward an ethical and political re
generation of society and industry,
while in Italy it writes anew the life
of Jesus by the hand of the brilliant
and recently converted Papini.
In the large and more constructive
lights it is this same effervescent
something which is moving toward
the great ideals of international
peace and no more war. which is
dreaming of the realization of bro
therhood the world over.
Now all of this. while it tends not
to q SODOrlfc ana CoUlpOScu puDiiC
opinion, but to great confusion and
turmoil. a battle Of tongues and war
of words. is not a situation to grieve
over. It is rather hopeful and joyous
in the highest measure.
All of these scattered and varied
manifestations of q reviving and ar
dent something in the heart of man
kind are brought into a brilliant
, focus in the twelve paragraph
preachment by former President
Woodrow Wilson. recently in the At
Iantic Monthly. In The Road Away
From Revolution" he says.
.The sum of the whole matter is
this: Our civilization cannot sur
yive materially unless it be redeemed
spiritually. 1t can be saved only by
becoming pcrmeated with the spirit
of Christ and being made free and
happy by the practices which spring
out Of that spirit. Only thus can dis
content be driven out and all the
shadows lifted from the road ahead
Here is the challenge to our churches,
to our political organizations and to
our capitalists--to every one VINO
fears God or loves his country
Shall we not all earnestly cooperate
to bring in the new day?

OUR IMMIGRANTS

They do say the kind of in1mi-
grants this country is getting under
the present law is in the. main the
kind we need. Truly that's some
thing to be thankful for.
They do say quite few are being
smuggled into the country. Need
less to add these immigrants are
not included in the above reference
to the desirable ones. 1t should go
without the saying that we do not
need and ought not to accept these
bootlegged specimens.
To date the only practicable rem
edy for this we have seen suggested
is that of Secretary of Labor Davis
He would have the immigrant reg
istered and obliged to show his reg
istration card and identity when
called upon to do so. This might
not prove so easy as slipping into
the country unobserved, as thou
sands of them are said to be doing.

into a prince.
BY and by, the little bear said,

sit down beneath this shady tree
SO, after resting a while, the little
bear closed his eyes and began to
snores When, all OF a sudden, voice
sang from the tree-top:
I'm not bird, though I'm up in this
tree,
Heigh diddle dunn, heigh diddle dee.
I'm afraid of bear or else I'd come

Rabbit, peering up into the tree,
but he couldn't see anybody for the
leaves were very thick.

There are frequent calls for relief.
Admitted. The call for relief for
Japan Is once in a lifetime. Unless
answered Immediately 1t need not be
answered at all.
We who live in Augusta and sur
rounding towns would have a right
to feel offended If our quota Of this
relief fund were less than sixteen
hundred dollars. We should feel
ashamed not to meet that quota in
full, promptly and gladly.
He gives twice who gives quickly,
indeed it will be useless to give II we
delay until after the emergency has
passed.
That we have not already exceeded
the quota is not because we are I'M
willing to give. 1t is because we
have neglected to do so at the mo-
ment when we decided to give, have
put 1t off until tomorrow.
Those who are suffering under the
terrible conditions of the awful
calamity which has befallen Japan
cannot put their sufferings off until
tomorrow.
Those who would help them can
not put off doing so until tomorrow.
They must do it NOW!
Every day that quota remains I'M
filled so much the more advertises
our negligence.

anyone to speak for the church.
Your item is not correct. 1t Is I'M

ering announcements made in st.

fine itself to information authorized
by the pastor alone these mistakes
will not occur.
