Keep Uric Acid
Out of Joints
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to
Eat Less Meat and Take
Salts.
Rheumatism is easier to avoid) than to
cure, states a well-known authority. We
are advised to dress warmly; keep the
feet dry; avoid exposure; eat leaa meat,
ut drink plenty of good water.
Rheumatism Is a direct result of eating
too much meat and other rich foods that
produce uric acid which la absorbed into
the blood. It la the function of the kid
neys to filter this acid from the blood
nd cast It out in the urine; the pores of
the skin are iilso a means of freeing the
aloud of this Impurity. In damp and
i hilly cold weather the skin pores are
.iosed thus forcing the kidneys to do
Jouhlu work, they become weak and slug
gish and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keepa accumulating and circulating
through the system, eventually settling
in the joints and muscles causing stlff
iieax, soreness und pain called rheuma
luin At the first twinge of rheumatism get
from any pharmacy about four ounces
of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful In a
glass of water and drink before break
fast each morning for a week.- This Is
said to eliminate urio acid by stimulat
ing the kidneys to normal action, thua
ridding the blood of these Impurities.

INSURANCE BILL COMES NEXT
Howell Measure, Declared to Be in
Behalf of Home Companies,
Awaits Action.
ALREADY HAS PASSED IN SENATE
I From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. March 11 (Special ) When
the annexation bill and the Water beam
bill, both Omaha measures, have been
disposed of by the house, the next bill
In Importance Is probably 3. F. the
antt-dlscrimlnatlon Insurance bill, which
passed the senate by a vote of in to IS.
The bill proposes to equalize fire Insur
ance rates throughout the state, it lolng
stated that at present a company can
write any kind of a rate to get the busi
ness and that It works against the man
of small property In favor of the one
with large interests.
It Is stated that fire rates In Lincoln
are much lower than In Omaha and other
towns and that the discrimination extends
not only to the towns, but to the Indi
viduals. It Is asserted tnat should the
bill become a law Nebraska companies
can be formed and have a show of get
ting Nebraska business Instead of hiving
it all go to the outside companies.
.Argument against the bill Is that it will
form a trust and that Instead of lowering
the rates to an equality the rates will
be raised. This argument Is met by the
plea that the bill gives the insurance
commissioner full power to see that not
only are rates not raided, but that nn
discrimination of any kind is shown. In
case any person or company Is not satis
fled with the ruling of tho commissioner
he can appeal to the district court for
adjudication and tho insurance commis
sioner will have the same privilege.
The bill is endorsed hy the Nebraska
Hardware Dealers' association, the Retail
Dealers' association and the insurance
commissioner.
Companion Hill Killed.
A companion hill to .senator Howell's S.
F. 41. putting insurance rates on a state
regulatory basis, was killed by the sen
ate committee of the whole this morning.
The measure defeated was S. F. 20!, which
extends the provisions of the main bill,
applying only to fire and storm insurance
to fidelity and surety Insurance.
Despite Howell's argument that to be
consistent, having passed the one It
should pass tho other, the opposition to
the measure was strong. Shumway of
Dixon and Mallcry of Box Butte led the
fight on the bill.

Jefferson County
Commissioner Asks
For An Extra Year
F. I niSI'R Y. Neb. .March 11 (Special
Telegram.) John Hearty. lawyer, ap
peared before the county commissioners
Wednesday and demanded that ex
County CoMimlssloner Charles V. Rohr
baugh be allowed to take part In the pro
ceedings of the bo.ird as a member
thereof, claiming that his successor.
Homer H. Yeaklc, was unlawfully exer
cising the duties of the member of tho
loard. 1 1 1 demands were refused.
The affair proves to be a complicated
ono and no lawyer is willing to predict
what the outcome will finally be.
Tho law was first enacted in 1873 and
provided that county commissioners
should be elected to serve a period of
three years. In 1905 this law waa amended
and fixed the term of the county commis
sioners of all counties at four years. Why
this was never discovered before, and
county commissioners for the last ten
years have been holding three years,
when they were entitled to four. Is the
mystery that cannot bo explained.
Mr. Rohrbough was elected In 1911 on
the republican ticket and was defeated
last fall by Homer T. Yeakle, democrat,
but Kohrhaugh's attorney claims he Is
entitled to serve until January 1, 1918. It
Is contended, however, when Rohrbaughi,
willingly surrendered his office last Janu
ary, he relinquished all claim to it.
Yeakle was Issued a certificate of elec
tion and has been serving on the board
fclnce January 7. It Is claimed in case
Y eakle is ousted it would fall upon the
board to appoint some one to fill the
vacancy.

government, and the fact that no lives
were lost when the Fre was sunk, trans
ferre.) the case from the realm of crim
inal proceedings under the federal statute
under a possible charge of piracy, and
'makes it a subject of diplomatic negotia
tions with the object of gaining repars
I tion for the owners and a disclaimer of
unfriendliness. That the fnlted States
would ask for damages and an explana
tion from the German government was
regarded as certain. Some officials
thought the German government would
find Itself compelled to repudiate the act
of the German captain or abandon the
position taken by Germany In recent cor
respondence with the I'nlted tSates on
the subject of conditional contraband and
foodstuffs. Precedents In International

!. of Prise pre.
The general rule that ha been applied
Is that a belligerent warship must take
Its prises Into port unless there are con
trolling reasons, such a unseaworthiness,
lack of a prise crew, danger of recapture
and the presence en hoard of a cargo of
contraband, which would make certain
Its condemnation by a prime court. The
commander of the belligerent vessel must
preserve the neutral ship's papers and
bring them to the prlr.e court for the en
tering of a decree.
In the Russo-Japanese war the I'nlted
States protested to the Russian govern
ment against the sinking of the Rrltlah
steamer Knight Commander, with an
American cargo In far eastern waters.
The crew testified that the vessel had
been sunk because of lack of enough coal
to proceed to Vladivostok and the I'nlted
States considered that the sinking of the
vessel was not "Justified by the base
facts that there was contraliend of war
aboard."
The fact that wheat Is conditional con
traband, that a ship would be liable to
condemnations! only if It were proved
that Its cargo waa destined to the bellg
erent forces of an enemy and that no
opportunity waa afforded for the furnish

that the as so of the I'nlted States against
Germany la a strong one.
Brttlah-Haaalan Precedent.
During the Russo-Japanese war. Great
Rritaln maintained a long and vigorous
correspondence with Russia on tha right
of a raptor of a neutral ship to sink It

measures "would occasion a complete

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
tho scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulslfled
cocoanut oil (which la pure and en
tirely greaseless), la much better than
soap or anything else you ean use for
shampooing, as this can't possibly In
jure the hulr.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub It In. One or two tea
apoonfuls will ninke an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
ba'r and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and It leaves It fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age. Tou ran get mulslfled cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. It Is very
cheap, and a few ounces Is enough to
last everyone in the family for
month. Ad vertlsement.
