Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; re- moving all the body’s urinous wutg elsa you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic ~twinges.

President Wilson Personally| = ES Wrote Peace Note. + & * Washington, April 28 —President | ¥ Wison is not delegating any of his au- i thority or responsibility in the Mexi- + can matters. - It has been learned that the presi-| . dent personally wrote the note to the three diplomatic representaties of Latin-American states in response to the offer of mediation. The president, it is said, realized the importance of the note and want- ed to avoid commitments. He was insistent that no reply should be made that could be constructed as recognition of Huerta. The president let it be known to the mediators that he would consider no proposal for peace that contem- plates the retention of Huerta in t.he presidency of Mexico. The president was insistent also that the note be drawn to cover ev- ery aspect of the Mexican situation. He wants peace generally in Mexico. The president is much concerned for the American residents In ~Mexico. The British ambassador in Mexico City has assured him that the Ameri- cans are not in danger, however, and that Huerta is sending them out and is willing they should leave. Unless the Mexican situation changes for the better soon there will be a transfer of several of the most formid- able of the fleet to the Pacific waters, through the Panama canal.
