lack of this vitamin also predisposes
to infection, that may be its role. In

perhaps because they live on bet
ter balanced diet.
The outstanding symptom of
stone is collie. The cause of the collie
lis the stone going from the pelvis
|Of the kidney into the ureter, down
Ito the bladder. The smaller the
stone, the more likely it is to enter
the ureter and cause collie.
The X-ray shows stone in about
100 per cent of cases.
Treatment of stone offers today
all the refinementse of modern medi-
cal science. The acute attack can
be relieved by morphine. When the
condition is serious enough to
threaten health, modern surgery is
painless and very safe.
Can't Dissolve Stone
Attempts to dissolve the stone"
are never successful. Any chemical
which will dissolve stone will also
dissolve the kidney.
But if the chemical composition
|of the stone is known, much can be
done to prevent recurrence. For
|oxalate stone, an acid reaction Of
the urine should be maintained and
foods containing oxalates-tea, cof-
fee, cocoa, rhubarb, spinach, beans,
|currants and figs-should be avoid
led. For the rare uric acid stones,
the urine should be kept alkaline,
and the diet used in govt instituted.
Drinking large quantities Of min.

always been found helpful.

WILLIS R. JONES
CANDIDATE FOR
ATTORNEY GEN'L

Willis R. Jones, candidate for Demo-
cratic nomination for Attorney Cen
eral, is making a strong appeal to the
Democratic voters of the State to
support his candidacy in the Primary
Election on September 18th, 1888.
Basing his claims to the nomination
upon his experience of eleven years as
Assistant and Deputy Attorney Cen
eraI. during which time he gained the
reputation of being hard worker, al
wavs willing and anxious to be OF as
sistance to others, Mr.. Jones has won
the support of many of the most out
standing lawyers and citizens in all
sections of the State. He is the only
candidate who has had any practical
experience in the office and his sup
porters contend that during his SER
vice in the office his qualifications
for Attorney General were fully DEM
onstrated.
ALWAYS a champion of the Merit
system, Mr.. Jones will be remembered
for his gallant defense of this system
during the last four years since his
retirement as Deputy Attorney Cen
eral. He, more than any other IN
dividual in the State, has exposed the
abuses to which the system has been
subjected during this period and his
hackers believe that his nomination
and election will be vindication of the
system and will insure a rigid observ-
ance of its principles during the next
four years.
AS to the non-factional character
of his campaign, Mr.. Jones says:
although 1 solicit and welcome
support from all Democrats in the
Primary Election, am happy to have
no factional alliance in this campaign,
as I believe the Attorney General
should be free from factional politics.
Factions organized in the party are
usually for the selfish interest of the
persons forming the faction and are
frequently against the interest of the
party and the public as well.
"When candidate joins a faction,
he is expected to support all of the
candidates sponsored by that faction,
although there may be other candi-
dates, not belonging to the faction,
who are better fitted than the fac
tional candidate. It is the civic duty
of every voter to vote for the candi-
date best equipped for the particular
office and the candidate who will
trade away his judgment as to who
is the best qualified candidate for a
given office in return for political
support of his own candidacy for an
other office cannot be expected, if
elected, to place the public interest
ahead of partisan considerations.
"From my experience of eleven
years in the State Law Department.,
I know it is no place for partisan in
fluence of any kind, and if am elect
ed as Attorney General, the office will
be administered to the very best of
my ability and solely in the interest
of all of the people of the State"

 Although local custom sorne- times decrees otherwise, it is gen. erally considered proper to send birth announcement only to inti- mate friends of the parents.

Hazard Meter Helps Predict
 Forest BIazes

ST. PAUL, Aug. 30-Science has taken some more of the guesswork out of forest fire fighting
 This time it is the fire danger meter" pocket-sized paper en- velope, with four slotted windows and a number-covered sliding rule
 Invented by J. A. Mitchell of the Lake States Forest Experiment sta ton, it is intended as yard stick by which forest rangers may deter mine the fire hazard in their dis tricts on any given day.
 Used eXperimentally in national forests of the Lake States region, the meter has proved unusually ac- curate and was found especially pf- fective in sections where large concentrations of men, as in the CCC camps, were charged with protection of a large wooded area
 It permitted the ranger in charge to conserve his manpower, utiliz- ing the men on other tasks on "low-danger' days, and in sending large crews at once to blazes re- ported under high-danger condi- tions.
 Relative humidity, wind veloc- ity, number of days since last rain fall, amount of rainfall, and condi- ton of vegetation (whether green. curing or deaO are factors in opera ton of the meter.
 When the meter is set on these factors, the resultant reading is the fire hazard "quotient." These quotients number from one to seven. AS examples of the meters accuracy, it was found during q test period that only IA percent of the fires occurred on No. days while 46.5 percent occurred on No 6 days; and the average area burned was only 2.9 acres on No. 3 days. but 1868 acres on days rated and '.

 On the baby's card, which is about half the size of the MT. and Mrs. card, usually appears the baby's name-in the center. In the lower right corner is engraved the date of birth. No other informa- tion goes on the card
 The two cards usually are tied together by a bow of white, blue or pink ribbon, so that both the parents and the baby's name show
 Many baby cards having blank spaces into which the baby's name and birth date may be written are now on the market. Although their use is drowned on by many of the so-called socially correct, there is no reason why they may not be used. since doing so often saves time lost in putting through ar engraving order.
 Under ordinary circumstances an- nouncements are usually sent from MT. and Mrs. to MT. and Mrs.

 Stop Japanese Fishing
 We have been able to absolutely stop Japanese fishing in Bristol Bay" MT. Dimond said. Tt may not seem likely very serious problem to some, but it was threat ening our great fishing industry and if it had not been stopped it surely would have severly crippled the industry, if not actually put it out of business in that region"
 Commenting further on the fish ing industry, the Delegate reiterated that he was in favor of abolishing all fish traps.
 Delegate Dimond expects to re- main in the First Division until after the election September 13 and then will return to the Alaska Pen insula and Bristol Bay areas in connection with problems to be ironed out there.

The Baby Ru|e; Pink for Girls,

Pink is for girls and blue for boys. That's an old baby custom.
 Still, if mother prefers pink for her boys clothes or blue for her girls, there's no reason she should not get it. There's no reason, either, if she has furnished her nursery in blue and the baby daughter ar rives, that she should not continue her chosen color scheme
 A number of questions arise when the new baby comes. An nouncements, for one thing.
