Denounces Tactics in Citi-

opposing slate making as involving

Swanton's desire for the presidency as

does not mean that any candidates for
other offices are not acceptable to me.

the obligations and the agreements that
are essential details of slate-making.
Slate Declared Selected.
The slate said to have been selected
by Havenner was as follows: For vice
president, B. A. Bowels, Georgetown
Citizens Association; for secretary,
David Babp, West End Citizens Asso-
citation; for treasurer. A. H. Gregory,
Stanton Park Citizens Association.
Babp and Gregory are now secretary
and treasurer. respectively, of the fed
Grafton, and Havenner is vice president.
James c. Yaden. the president, is not a
candidate for reelection.
The case of David Babp, now secre-
tary. presents some interesting features.
Babp was elected secretary while a
lg&egate from the Lincoln Park Citi-
zens' Association. Since the last elec-
ton, however, he has removed from the
jurisdiction of that association and is
now member of the West End Citi-
zenS' Association. He is not dele
gate from the latter body to the fedora
ton. There is nothing in the constitu-
ton that would prevent the election of
any one other than a delegate to the
post of secretary. which Babp has held
for several years.
1t is said, however, that Havenner
might have some difficulty in winning
votes for Babp, as precedent. If not law,
requires that the federation shall be
by delegates.

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

When you wake up with back
ache and dull misery in the kidney
region it may mean you have been
eating foods which create acids, says
well-known authority. An excess
Of such acids overworks the kidneys
in their effort to filter it from the
blood and they become sort of para
lyzed and loggy. When your kid
neys get sluggish and clog you must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels, removing all the body's uri-
nous waste, else you have backache,
sick headache, dizzy spells; your
stomach sours, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twingeS.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take tablespoonful in
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 stimulate sluggish kid
neyS, also to neutraliZe acids in the
system, so they no longer irritate,
thus often relieving bladder weak
ness.

with cotton fur" and jingling bells. Fortunately the children had found their beds, after a day of excitement and wonder at all the marvellous things they had seen in the shop windows, and they slept on.
 When he was iuiiy attired and considered himself, after careful survey, ready to perform his stunt, Mrs. Smallwood betook herself to the room adjoining that of her sister. A few minutes later, in the rooms downstairs. the chatter of feet and the jingling of bells was heard.
 Sleepy eyes opened and drowsy but eager child's treble piped up: Ma, I hear him, It's Santa
 In a twjnkling there were smoth- cred sounds attesting; all were looking for the jolly old man of Christmas. As footsteps approach ed and the jingle of bells became distinct, little eyes, round as sauc- CTS, told the thrill the children were experiencing. A few mo- 'ments later the family were as sembled in the big, comfortable bed-parents carried away in the wonder of their children's eyes,

When all was ready. and the stockings hung in the chimney place had been filled, the two tip toed to bed.
 Rest was not long. Between mid night and the moment a small boy thinks he should hear Santa Claus is but span. It seemed even less.
 Long before the first faint flush of dawn before the wind rose to sweep the snow into new drifts, and play on wires and silvered boughs, the Smallwoods were up. They had to be ear:y or the child ren would be disappointed in find ing that good old ruddy-nosed, pot-bellied Santa Claus had not arrived.
 Smallwood, who was to imper- senate Santa, crept quietly across the floor of his attic room. Quiet as he was, every board seemed to creak under his tread IL seemed diseouraging. He feared the child ren would awake before he could don his boots and scarlet costume This was fur-trimmed literally

The Srnallwoods' ] Christmas
 By W. D. Pennypaekr

Piercing wind swept the dry snow nfo gnarled knots and eddy ing circles. and continued it's moaning all through the night Drifts were light and here and there the bare ground could be seen.
 And almost similar conditions prevailed in the heavens Dark, foreboding clouds from which the flakes fell lightly like goose feath- CTS, now and again parted, to re- veal brilliant constellations.
 That was the mood in which Christmas eve found the out-of- doors in Smithville.
 The Smallwoods had had a busy day. They were not natives of Smithville, but arrived late that afternoon after a tedious run by train and motor bus. They usual ly spent Christmas in Smithville, where Mrs. Smallwood's sister lived. They enjoyed the romps and frolies with the children and always asserted that no day could be Christmas unless blessed with the rollieking laughter of little ones. Having none of their own they enjoyed the holidays with their Smithville relatives.
 Embers in the big fireplace were still bright, but losing their bril- liance because of neglect. The pungent odor of burn ng pine brought soothing drowsiness to tired eyes. Books and papers lay untouched. They relaxed They Rll but slept.
 When the great hall clock struck one-two-three-four-fiye-six- seven-eight- n-eleven- and when the chimes leased to re- verberate, they rose uprgiht with start. It was time to decorate the treel The youngsters were asleep, and there was no danger that any of them would hear santa if be came"
 And so, as gently as they could, but full of joy of doing it--an hour or more was spent in arranging the tree and placing gifts before it as some benighted ones might lay trophies before an idol. The thought occurred to them-and it amused them.

 After h shut the door we could hear the sleighbells iingling and growing fainter and fainter. :"
 Wish you had not slept so long, uncle You should have seen him."
 But why did you not watch him as he went out?" was his comeback.

All seemed satisfied when Santa left. At the breakfast table. some hours later. the thrill of the early hours having worn off to a de- gree, the children were chattering away about the experiences of the morning. They little realized that the man who came from the chim- ney place into their room, several hours before, with a heavy pack upon his shoulders, and bells jing- ling from his beeottoned costume, was sitting among them.
 T saw him myself" exclaimed the youngest, looking straight into the eyes of Santa

and children thrilled with the knowledge that Santa was actual ly before them.
 The jolly old man, his nose and cheeks ruddy from long contact with Arctic winds, strode delib- erately into their room!
 And here's the whole bunch of 'em,' he muttered. "A bloomin, fine lot, I should say" He lowered the heavy sack from his shoulders as he sat upon the edge of the bed.
 "A heavy load it has been: but I've loved to think of them," he remarked under his breath. Then turning to John, a tow-headed youngster of seven. he questioned:
 Have you been good?"
 Yes, Santa Claus" was the prompt reply.
 Similar questions were put to all as Santa deliberated. Then he turned to the youngest
 And how about you?" he in- qnired.
 Her eyes grew big and her ex- pression startled For some sec onds she could not speak. Then, as Santa hesitated whether to leave anything. she inquired:
