The charter com- wission are desirous that every voter become acquainted with every detail of the new proposed city laws so that each may vote intellingently. The Suppression of News. This week we looked in a neigh- i boring exchange expecting to see an account of how a young man had gone |’ wrong as. it appeared in the daily papers. Not a line about the young ' aman -could we find. And we knew why, at once. A heartbroken wife or Felative had gone to the editor and asked him “to say nothing,” and the editor listened and the tears had won ‘the promise from him. We have i gone through with the same thing ourselves dozens of times. An edi- tor is only human. He has his likes and dislikes: he loves and he hates his strength between love and duty is ‘just like that of the average. citi- 2en. We remembers one case in par- ticular. We had let a certain thing £0 by unmentioned because a tear- ful' mother, bowed down with her cross, had come to us and hegged the avor. A big-headed man jumped us about it and ‘called us a coward. for 80, dmng. A short time afterwards the shadow fell across his threshold and he came running and begging us ‘to say nothing. “Yes,” we replied, “but don’t you remember how you called us a cow- ard for keeping still?” “I know,” he replied, “but I was wrong. It is different now.” And we listened even to him. There are things that. an editor can’t suppress. 'There. are other things that he can forget with pripriety. As far as we are concerged 'We would rather lessen the grief cf a parent than.throw out a -morsel for the vulgar, gossiping public to feed upon. We would rather wipe away tears from the eyes of a mother than to “have nerve” enough to join a heartless crowd of flying tongues and sink the iron deeper in- to her tender soul. So when in this neighboring paper we failed to find what we wanted, we made no com- ment. But down deep in our heart we admired that editor and liked him because he had a heart that was tender, and he would rather listen to the jibes of an unfeeling pubiic than to the sobs of the heartbroken mother and wife.—Florida Orlando Sentinel.

TAKES EFFECT THIS NONTH Congress Authorized the Department of Agriculture to Adop% Regulations and Fix a Closed Season for Cer- tain Species. Washington, Oct. 10.—Migatory | virds have come into their own, for|. Uncle Sam has put into effect a set of uniform federal laws protecting the many species. of the feathered tribe which threaten to become extinct through the ravages of the nimrods. Congress passed a law last March authorizing the department of agricul- ture to adopt regulations and fix a closed season for certain species of birds needing federal protection. These regulations were duly drafted. Effective this month the regulations are briefly, as follows: Trap shooting prohibited; shooting between sunset and sunr‘ise punish- able by heavy fines; suspension of hunting indefinitely on the Ohio, Mis- sissippl and Missouri rivers, allowing waterfowl a safe highway from their winter feeding grounds in the lower Mississippi valley to their nesting grounds in the Dakotas and Minne- sota; limiting hunting seasons to a maximum of = three and one-half months in the several states; seasons being according to latitude and times of migration; providing separate sea- sons for waterfowl, quail, shorebirds and woodcock, complete protection for five years for the smaller shore birds and dther species which have become greatly reduced in' numbers. The new law also protects the robin, the lark and other birds in the few states where they suffer from an open season. DOUBI.E"TRAGEDY IN JAIL Warden’s Wife Kills Four-YearOld | Child and Herself.

IF KIDNEYS AND BLADDER® BOTHER Flush the Kidneys at Once When Backachy or Bladder Bothers— Meat Forms Uric Acid. No man or woman who east meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well known authority. Meat forms uric acid which. clogs the kid- ney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervous- ness, constipation, = dizziness, sleep- lessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of pas- sage or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable phar- macy and take a tablespoanful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and. your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,” combined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stim- ulate them to activity, also'to neu- tralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and can- not 'injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoid- ing serious kidney complications.— his wife’s act, which the authorities |3 agreed appeared to have been the murder of her child and self destruc- tion.
