PROPOSALS ARE
FORMING QUICKLY
BERLlN's PROPOSALS ON REPAIR
ATloNs PROVIDE HYPoTHE-
CATION OF PROPERTY
PLANS GOLD MORTGAGE
SOURCE OF REVENUE WOULD BE
GOLD MORTGAGE ON uNEN-
cUMBERED REAL ESTATE

Berlin.-Chancellor Cuno's delibera-
tons with the ~reichstag leaders and
representative of finance and indus
try are gradually assuming concrete
form and in all probability will have
sufficiently crystallized to enable the
government informally to indicate
the character of its Forthcoming rep
arations proposals in the next few
days.
Much consolation was had from the
offer of the federation of German in
dustrialists to give the requisite
guarantees for international loans
purposes, 1t being looked upon as
showing the willingness of Germany's
business interests to back he gov
eminent.
The program drafted by the indus
trialists and their allied financial in
terests provides for far-flung hypoth.
ecation of all productive properties
n other economic assets and also
contains a demand that the federal
railway system be turned over to a
private operating company which
would guarantee the government a
specific return in gold earnings.
The plan conceived by the indus
trialists provides for specific guaran
tees for which the leading industrial.
holdings throughout Germany would
be pledged in return for the govern
ment's consent to place the federal
railways in the hands of a private
operation board although title would
remain with the government. This is
only one of several features of the
industrialists program which are ex-
pected TO meet sturdy opposition by
the socialists.
For the principal source of revenue
the program suggests a gold mort
gage on all unencumbered real estate,
and estimates indicate that this would
net 60O,000,000 gold marks annually
for the first ten years, with the pos
sibility that the sum eventually would
amount to 1,O00,00o 1000 gold marks.
Financial experts assume that a
gold mortgage levy on land extending
over a long number of years would
constitute the basis Of Germany's rep
arations assessments
The program of the ndustrialists re-
minds the government of the impera-
tive need of reorganizing all branches
of the public services, enhancing pro-
duction in all lines through added eff
forts on he part Of labor.
While numerous technical details in
connection with the mortgaging pro-
cess and the proposed levies on cap-
ital and production remain to be
worked out, 1t Is believed that Ger
many will be able to indicate an offer
comprising thirty definitely prescribed
annuities in view of capital fixatlon.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands Of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the

to become diseased.

Man Can Show Admiration
Without a 'Petting Party

A1OW l am on the "green
1 y carpet" 1t seems one of
my men readers can not reconcile
the fact that, although it is not
proper" for man to hug and
kiss a girl before they are en-
gagged, | said the man should use
a few "cave-man" tactics. He
wants to know what my readers
think about it.
Perhaps 1 can help him. When
speaking Of "cave-man" tactics, what
1 meant was that girls like q. man who
asserts his masculinity. But that does
not mean he must be a ''sheik."
One girl reader says we might as
well face the fact that "petting" is
common thing, even though some
may deplore it. I do not deny that.
But do argue that the best-iked man
is the one who need not depend upon
"petting," but who can carry on an
intelligent conversation and who can
convey admiration without "petting."
Also, that the popular girl is not pOpu-
lar because she throws herself into the
arms of every man that comes her
way, but because she has attractive
characteristics.

Mixed Up a Bit

Dear Miss Lee, I am rather mixed up
about this love-making business. In one
place l notice you said fellow ought not
put his arms around a girl or kiss her. I
should like to know how a fellow is going
to make love il he does not do little hug
ging and kissing. Anyway, in another In
stance you say to mix little "caye-man"
stuff with your friendship for girl.
Also. 1 do not know why il is not proper
to whistle TO a girl friend across the street
to draw her attention. Most every boy does
It and the girls do not seem to think any
thing is wrong with IT.
Let's hear from some of The Times read
ers on these subjects.

FLUSH The KIDNEYS
BEFORE BREAKFAST

No man or woman can make "A
mistake by flushing the kidneys occa-
sionally. says a well-known author
ity. Eating too much rich food
creates acids, which excite the kid
neys. They become overworked from
the strain, get sluggish and fail to
filter the waste and poisons from the
blood. Then we get sick. rheumatism,
headaches. liver trouble, nervousness,
dizziness, sleeplesness and urinary
disorders often come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys, or your back hurts,
or If the urine is cloudy. offensive,
full Of sediment, irregular Of passage
or attended by a sensation of scald-
ing, begin drinking a quart Of water
each day, also get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast. and in a few days
your kidneys may act nne.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with Ithia. and has been used
for years to flush and stimulate the
kidneys; also to help neutralize the
acids in the system, so they no
longer cause irritation, thus often re-
lieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia-water
drink. which every one should take
now and then to help keep the kid
neys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby often avoiding serious
kidney complications. By all means
have your physician examine your
kidneys at least twice a year-Ad-

How to Keep the Eyes Bright

The eyes deserve a great deal of
attention because they are expressive
OF your individuality.
So you should keep your eyes
bright, vivacious, sparkling and full
of life.
To do this, Of course, you must have
good health.
Any stomach or liver disorder will
affect the brightness Of the eyes.
Much depends upon the condition
of the mouth, for many stomach dis
orders have been caused by improper
mastication of food and care OF the
mouth
OF course we cleanse our teeth night
and morning and visit our dentist at
least twice a year but many of US
neglect to cleanse our tongues.
To clean the tongue daily is as i'm
portant to the health as any other
act of the toilet
1t is most necessary to scrape the
tongue twice daily or to take a piece
Of white velvet and rub 1t over the
tingue before retiring and Immediately
upon arising. Use a good mouth wash
afterward.
Puffs around the eyes are usually
caused from some kidney condition.
