Quart of Water j Cleans Kidneys I Take a Little Salts If Your Back Hurts, or Bladder is Troubling You — No man or woman can make a mis take by flushing the kidneys occasion ally, says a well-known authority. Mating too much rich food creates acids, which excite the kidneys. They become overworked from the strain, gel sluggish and fail to filter the w aste and poisons from the blood. Then we get aick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders often come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel n dull ache In the kidneys, or your back hurts, or If the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, be gin drinking a quart of water each day. also get about four ounces of .lad Malls frig a any pharmacy; take a Iablespconfid In a glass of water be fore breakfast and In a few days your kidneys may act fine.

E. W. Howe. I find great pteasure in a truth ful man. One can depend on ! what he says, and learn from him. . . . But. no one pays any atten tion to a liar, or much respects him. I have never known a really successful man who was a liar. Men of that disposition soon learn, if engaged in real affaire success fully, that untruthfulness is a drag, like a suit of clothes when In swimming. """ SONG Oh. I would weave a little song Out of the flowers of my heart. And I’d entwine them one by one With clever twist an1, nimble da't. I’d add the bitterness of tears. The sweetness of a soul-sprung smile, The disillusionment of years, The triumph asted for awhile. I'd mix the colors of my moods The tans and grays of dull despair, the reds and golds that surge with joy. The hues of happiness and care. And all the fragrance of a life Would breathe itself into my song, At times a crooning lullaby. Again, a Hallelujah—strong! And would you take my little song And understand its softlike pleading? Or would you crush it to the ground And leave it bruised and bleeding? Elsie Brodkey. 3244 Jackson St., Sioux City. --— “Sweet Are the Uses of Adversity.” From the Los Angeles Times. Five hundred thousand members were lost by the Protestant church es last year, is the startling report of an official statistician for religi ous bodies in America. Reaction came immediately from the headquarters of the Presbyterian denomination and the following rea sons were assigned lor the slump: __ « _ J ___1 4- AM • Lnil 11 rn h _ x UC iuwciru UIWIM* , -- ing influences upon the spiritual life; negligence of shepherds going after the lost sheep; pruning of member ships; the high cost of church affilia tion. . . . As to this condition of organized Christianity, some facts are note worthy. We spend more than 15 times as much on ambulances at the bot tom of the precipice in taking care of crime as we do on fences at the top. . . . Our bill for chewing gum and cosmetics makes the cost of churches picayunish. It is possible that a greater candor of the times in cutting out dead tim ber from constituency rolls . has something to do with the slump. We may have been guilty of worshiping statistics. For the ministers to accuse them selves of laxness is healthful. Con fession is curative. But we question whether any or all of these answers are satisfactory. We mav even take the worn groove of the line of least resistance and blame it on the war. It is good peace propaganda. Can it be that the condition of the church goes deeper? May it be pos sible that we cannot stand prosper ity? All sunshine makes empty pews. Clouds fill the hardest benches. Dis asters drive to the knees. . . . Dean Inge is credited with the saying that the church’s success is her failure. Victory is often our greatest defeat. When folks are in trouble, they dust off the Bible When their lcrders are fuli of meat and their wardrobe - full of clothes, the lines to the skies tend to fall into disuse. When the grades are rut down and It is made easy to enter Yosemite and Heaven, we lose the rest. The cost of Christianity dees not seem to be too great, but too little. The blood of the martyrs mav yet be the seed of the church. Light seed has made slack harvest Mountains of opposition yet lift to the skies. t'p-To-Iiate Children.

NEA Service. The traditional statesman, with his frock coat, string tie and silver tongued oratory, is extinct; and Senator Henry F, Ashurst of Arizona sees no reason to bewail his passing. “Today’s statesman," says Senator Ashurst to a midwest real estate board, “is a businesslike gentleman in an ordinary business suit, who either has wide knowledge of businesr affairs or is doing his best to accumulate that necessary knowl edge." For this age, the senator explains, is the age of science and business. We no longer have red Indians to kill, wild forests to clear, menacing foreign enemies to repel. Our problems call for the business man, the banker, the engineer and th* chemist, not the politician. There is nothing really new in 1 his statement. But it needs to be emphasized every so often. We are too apt to try to use 19th century standards and instruments in a 20th century world. It is up to us realize that the old order has passed, forever, and that the America of today is not the America of Lincoln's day. All change is apt to be a bit frightening. It is easy to mis take growing pains for the symptoms of mortal illness. Ac cordingly, it is not surprising that a great many people are worried over America's future. We find “liberals" every where lamenting the passing of the old public interest in politics, crying out that we will lose our liberties because we are indifferent to elections and issues, shuddering at the fact that power is passing to the harfds of the industrialist and the banker. We need to forget the romantic past and become realists. We have no Websters and Calhouns today; well, what of it T They would be helpless if they were here. Our national destiny is being shaped less and less at Washington, more and more in New York banks, Detroit auto factories, Schenectady laboratories and the mills of Pittsburg and Birmingham. Maybe this is too bad and maybe it isn’t; at any rate that is the way of it, and the sooner we realize it the better for us. When America adopted mass production it started out on an entirely new tack in civilization. Never before did any na tion set out to live by the machine. We have started on a path from which we could not turn back if we would; why not wake up to that fact and stop thinking in terms of 1880? Upon what does our future chiefly depend? lake it or not, it depends chiefly on that magic word prosperity. If our nation is to be healthy and happy its factory chimneys must be belching smoke. Yon can laugh at Babbit if you will, you can lament ‘‘standardization” and “factory civilization” until you are out of breath, but you can’t change that fact. It were bpst to face it. No one knows what the future holds. It certainly will he unlike anything that has gone before. And are there not in* dcations that it will be more dazzling, more splendid, as well? AYe are being freed in a way our forefathers never imagined; freed from toil, from poverty, from hunger, from the limi tations of time and space. Presently we shall be free enough so that each man, from the highest to the lowest, can begin to develop his boundless human potentialities. AVe are at the dawning of a new era. There is no need for lamentation. Not Bothering Gougers. From the Milwaukee Journal Secretary Hoover and Secretary Jardine want congress to permit buy ing pools to offset increasing con trol of certain products by foreign monopolies, which have the natural instinct of all monopolies to raise prices. Mr. Hoover says that the world is dangerously near a rubber shortage because of British restric tion of output. Perhaps something useful may be done by combined bu> - j ing, through the rial cure for price | boosting is stimulation of other sources of supply. Senator Smoot j said the other day that legislation i cannot upset natural laws, but that's , what the tariff is guaranteed to do. i and maybe something can be done Not mg to All.
