gain of 260, 343 over the previous year,

on a recent visit to Denver. The total

a total of six and One-half million dollars
has been appropriated for this work. The

Good Health Requires Good Elimination
TO be well, you must keep the
blood stream free from impur-
tiles. If the kidneys lag, allowing
body poisons to accumulate, a toxic
condition is created. One is apt to
feel dull, languid, tired and achy.
A nagging backache is sometimes a
symptom, with drowsy headaches
and dizzy spells. That the kidneys
are not functiOning properly is often
shown by burning or scanty passage
