WATER POWER BILL.
Washington, D. C, Jan. 15. Late
last Saturday the house of ropresenta?
tives passed the Ferris Water Power
bill, which would throw open for leas
ing water power privileges on public
lands estimated to be at least three
limes the amount now under develop
ment in the United States. The bill is
really an administration measure in
that it came originally from Secretary
of the Interior Lane, who worked it
up in conjunction with officials of the
.National Conservation association. It
is estimated that in the eleven states
where public lands now exist there
is approximately 10,000,000 undevelop
ed horsepower in the streams, which
under the Ferris Ibill will now become
available for leasing for periods of
fifty years, with proper provisions for
renewals.
Party lines were cast aside in voting
for the measure and Minority Leader
James R. Mann turned out to be one
of its strongest supporters. The
measure was fought hard by western
congressmen led by Representative
Mondell of Wyoming. They insisted
that leasing would delay the develop
ment of water power and favored
direct grants or rights by congress.
Western senators are playing a Hard
fight against the measure in the up
per house, but the friends of the bill
believe that it will be passed and be
come a law at this session of congress.
Broadly speaking the effect of this
measure is thus described by Secre
tary Lane:
The failure to -utilize the water
power resources is an economic waste.
Coal. oil. iras and timber which could
be conserved for the future or for
use in localities where power is not
available are now being consumed in
places where inexhaustible water
nower could ibe developed. Lands
which would produce abundant crops

Available capital lies idle because it
will not be hazarded upon tne re
vocable permit law. All-of these condi
tions and many others which might be
set out justly and call for tne enact
ment of such legislation. .
The principle underlying the bill is,
in brief, that the Federal Government
should hold title to the water powers
on public lands, which powers may
be developed by private capital under
such safeguards as will encourage in
vestment while at the same time pro
tecting tho interests of the public, liy
the terms Of the bill leases are to run
for not more than fifty years; charges
for service and stock and bond issues
are to be controlled by Federal au
thority when in interstate commerce;
and strict provisions relative to re
newal of leases, collection of rentals,
and supervision by the secretary of
the interior in states which do not
have public service commissions are
also included.

Mary Pickford. who has been called
America's sweetheart by an affection
ate public because of her delightful
representations of the Occidental girl
In motion pictures, has "been provided
with John Luther Long's classic,
"Madame Butterfly," as the vehicle
her first screen excursion into
Orientalism. The Production is at the
Arcade tonikht.
So great was her interest in this
forthcoming Famous Players Para
mount Picture that when Miss Pick
ford was informed that she was to
represent the screen embodiment of
Cho-Cho-San. she immediately en
gaged a Japanese maid in order to
study her mannerisms, her walk, her
gestures. This little daughter of
Nippon is now acting as advisor- in
chief to Miss Pickford in the matter
of selecting her Oriental wardrobe
and in the arrangement of her coif-
lure. v .
Little Mary is frankly apprehensive
over her first digression from the type
of character which she has always
presented to the ipublie.
"I feel almost as nervous about
Cho-Cho-San as I did about the first
picture I ever played in," said Miss
Pickford. "When one has been play
ing a oertain type of character almost
exclusively the public seems to resent
a departure from that particular style
of impersonation. Cho-Cho-San.. is
such a univesrally beloved little per
sonage that I am particularly nervous
nhout the Fickford version or the
character which has become familiar
to the public through the medium of
opera, novel and play; and if it does
not succeed, I shall probably commit
hari-kari."
The two greatest stimulants in the
world are love and debt.

When you Wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen

much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms urio 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
mt alumrish and cloe you muBt relieve
them, like you relieve your bowoiet re
moving all the body's urinouB waste,
els you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatio twinges. The urine
i clniidv. full of aedimentt channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or got from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts i take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidney will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the add of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithla,
and has been used for generations to

INSURANCE,
WHY DO YOU USE IT?
You insure because you want to relieve yourself of a heavy and un
certain liability. The risk and uncertainty is assumed by a financial
company that operates on such a large scale thnt the laws of average
oasq Xiumjjooun junpiAipui oqi ouuime a definite quantity.
WHAT INSURANCE IS SAFEST?
Insurance in an old-line corporation is by far the safest and best,
and in the long run the Cheapest. WHY? 1st, because they have
large securities and capital guaranteed by' the government; 2nd, they
write such an extensive amount of insurance that the law of averages
removes the danger of a few large losses upsetting the company, a
menace always hovering over small companies; 3rd, an old-line com
pany completely assumes your risk, while if you insure in a mutual
company or society you still carry a percentage of your own risk and
assume the same percentage of all the risks insured by the company
and automatically you become liable as a member of a concern over
whose operations you have practically no control.
DOES IT PAY?
In exchange for a certain payment the stock company entirely as
sumes your liability of loss for a definite amount If you suffer a loss,
of course it pays to have insurance.- Still you do not want a loss even
if you are insured. But you protect yourself as far as possible against
loss from an uncertain though probable cause, by paying a small and
certain amount. , By so doing you relieve your resources from sudden
strains, and free your capital for active business or living uses.
LET US WRITE YOUR INSURANCE.
Whether It is FIRE, PLATE GLASS, AUTO, LIFE, ACCIDENT,
AND HEALTH, BONDS or any other form of INSURANCE the above
applies.
1 We have strong companies, we write on equitable rates, we giv
(prompt attention, and offer reliable and experienced services.
