PURE FOOD LAWS ARE INADEQUATE Another Statute 011 Subject >'eeded Now.?So Experts Assert Washington, Nov. 15.?A conference between State pure food commissioners and offices of the department of agriculture here today decided that the federal pure food law -was inadequate; that it should be repealed and another statute substituted immediately. The chief point of attack was the section which permits the use of a guarantee label by manufacturers. This was declared misleading to the public as making it appear that the, products were guaranteed by the government. A committee of five, ^including Dr. Geo. B. Taylor of Louisiana, was appointed to urge congress to pass a new measure and also to provide a law to fix standards for all foods and drugs. That section of the federa1 pure IOOU law i egcti uiiig tuc use vi tviuiing matter and harmless extracts also was condemned. It was decided to urge a new section which would closely define what compounds maybe used. A clearing house in the department of agriculture for information regarding the enforcement of pure food arvd drug acts was decided upon. The conference started a movement leading toward greater co-opera:ion between the State pure food departments and also with the federal authorities. The enactment of a stringent law to trace the sale of poisons was urged. ^ JOHNS?* OPPOSES ADJOURNMENT Thinks Congress Should Work Off the Currency Bill First. T j f - X" ~1 O Wasningion, ^uvemuci 10.? xauv m i adjourning congress one week before the opening of the regular session, while generally discussed and almost invariably with signs of approval from most of the Representatives now in Washington, a few oppose it on the ground that it would be brought about solely to enable members to secure an additional mileage allowance. Representative J. T. Johnston, of South Carolina, is unalterably opposed to congress adjourning at the present time, and to-day expressed himself very forcibly regarding the matter. Mr. Johnson is a strong administration man. Since President vviison came m | to the White House Mr. Johnson has | never failed to uphold him whenever opportunity afforded in national affairs* Mr. Johnson believes that congress should not a-djourn at the present time for two reasons. He thinks that it would be bad for Congress to interfere with the plans of the President for continuous and constructive legis lation-. In other words that inasmuch i as the President has insisted that Con- j gress remain in session until the cur- \ rency bill should be out of the way, j that it would be unwise at the present1 time to adjourn, even though the new session will begin in about two weeks, j and that it would injure the President's j prestige. In addition to this, he is opposed to the payment of mileage for members for such a purpose. "I am i a member of the House committee on ! appropriations." Mr. Joiinson said, j "and I shall do my utmost to prevent the consideration of any such plan j should it be brought up." CHURCH DEDICATION. Sew Church at Pomaria?Sermon by Dr. W.

During the winter months especially, when v\re live an indoor life the kidneys should receive some assistance when needed, as we take less exercise, drink less water and often eat more rich heavy food, thtreby forcing the kidneys to do more work than nature intended. Evidence or kidney trouble, such as lame back, annoying bladder troubles, smarting or burning, brick-dust or sediment, sallow complexion, rheumatism, may be weak or irregular heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more serious trouble. Many physicians claim that an her- | bal medicine containing no minerals or opiates has the most healing influence. An ideal herbal compound that has had most "remarkable success as a kidney and bladder remedy is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. You May receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcels Post.
