FIGHTERS ARE READY
RITCHIE AND MURPHY ARE PRE
PARED FOR BATTLE
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9 Both
Willie Ritchie, world's lightweight
champion, and Harlem Tommy Mur
phy, were busy today putting on the
finishing touches for their 20 round
clash here tomorrow evening at CroC
froth's Eighth street arena.
Ritchie put in a good day's work in
the gymnasium yesterday but he took
no chances with his hands. He boxed
six rounds; two each with Kid Expos
ito, Guy Lee and Jimmy McVeigh, the
champion put him down with a right
cross to the jaw.
"Just tell my friends," said Willie
today, "that I never felt better in my
life. I have come down to the weight
nicely and am strong as anyone could
desire." "
Promoter Coffroth promised today
that the main event would be staged
not later than 1 9:20 o'clock. There
has been no change in the betting.
Ritchie holds at odds of 2 to 1 with
practically no Murphy money in
sight. Betting commissioners believ
ed the betting against Murphy will
lengthen to 10 to 4.

Chicken Farming.
T started out to raise some hens.
I first bought wire to make the pens.
You need nice pens to make hens thrive.
Mine cost me forty twenty-five.
I bought eleven kinds of feed.
For fowls a large assortment need.
I bought cut bone and grains galore.
The bill was nineteen eighty-four.
Of course hens need a chicken shed,
A place to sleep and to be: fed.
Mine was a good one through and through
And cost me sixty forty-two.
I wonder If hen farming pays.
I've had twelve eggs in sixty days.
The bills, of course, have been immense;
The twelve e?gs brought me thirty cents.

I'd love to pay the Income tax.
I'd pay it with delight
I'd pile the stuff in precious stacks.
I'd sit up half the night;
I'd try to be the first to pay.
I'd be it if I could.
And then I'd go my cheerful way
At least I think I would.
Of course I'd want an Income big.
So I could pay the more.
The deeper down I had to dig
The richer stream I'd pour.
If I had coupons piled in racks.
With millions to the good.
How joyously I'd pay the tax
At least I think I would.

UNCLE SAM IN
GOOD ROAD WORK
Bill to Pay For Carrying Mail
Over Highways.
TURNED DOWN BY SENATE.
Was Believed to Be Impractical Many
Things to Be Considered In National
Legislation on Subject of Improve
ment Four Principal Problems.
Scarcely any public work is more
permanent in its character when once
undertaken than that of highway im-'
provement. When a road is once locat
ed it is difficult to change its Jocation.
When ouce a foundation has been laid
for a permanent highway the laying of
a new foundation necessitates recon
struction of the entire surface.
It is therefore imoortant that before
entering upon a plau of national par
ticipation in highway construction we
should adopt a definite and compre
hensive plau based upon anticipation
of needs and operations for many years
to come, in order that we may be cer
tain the monej expended and the work
done iu one year will co-ordinate with
the expenditures and constructive
work of the nest year and for many
years to come. Care in planning a sys
tem and methods of procedure may
save us millions of dollars of waste or
bring vastly greater results than would
be attained uixler an ill considered and
haphazard action.
In the last postoffice appropriation
bill the house inserted a provision, aft
er tbe bill bad been reported from the
committee and while it was under dis
cussion on the Moor of the house, pro
viding the classification of roads used
for the carrying of United States mails
and for the payment by the govern
ment of an annual sura as rental in
consideration of the fact that the gov
ernment uses these highways.
Such payments were to be either $15.
$20 or $25 a mile, according to the
character of the road over which tbe
mails were transported
This provision was rejected by the
senate for several reasons. First, it
did not provide that the federal ap-

propriations should be expended in
highway improvements; second, it es
tablished the policy of obligating the
government to Vay to local communi
ties compensation for the use of high
ways In conducting the rural free de
livery service a service that Is con
ducted at a great loss to the govern
ment and for the special benefit of
the communities served: third, it was
the beginning of a system of com
pensation which had not been careful
ly considered, but which when once
adopted would certainly grow to im
mense proportions.
Believing that the government should
not enter upon any policy of par
ticipation In highway construction with
out first giving careful attention to
every phase of the subject, the sen
ate rejected this provision and inserted
a substitute, directing the appointment
of a joint committee of the two houses
for the study of the entire question
and tbe drafting of such legislation as
may meet tbe approval of the com
mittee. In legislating upon tbe subject of
national participation in road Improve
ment four different problems must be
solved:
First To devise a plan that shall
insure an equitable distribution of tbe
funds of tbe different sections of tbe
United States.
Second. To determine whether the
money should be expended in the con
struction of main arteries for inter
state commerce or to be expended npon
local branch lines that will serve mere
ly as feeders for railroads.
Third. To devise a plan of co-operation
with the different states that
will be acceptable to them and insure
tbe co-operation of all with tbe federal
government.
Fourth. To throw round the nation
al funds such safeguards as will in
sure their proper expenditure and
guard against waste. Senator Bourne
in Saturday Evening' Post.
No Good There.
The road drag will do nothing to
Improve the highway so long as it lies
unused at the side of tbe road.

DRUGS EXCITE YOUR
KIDNEYS, USE SALTS
If your Back is aching or Bladder
bothers, drink lots of water
and eat less meat
When your kidneys hurt and your back
feels sore, don't get scared and proceed
to load your stomach with a lot of drugs
that excite the kidneys and irritate the
entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys
clean like you keep your bowels clean,
by flushing them with a mild, harmless
salts which removes the body's urinous
waste and stimulates them to their nor
mal activity. The function of the kid
neys is -to filter the blood. In 24 hours
they strain from it 600 grains of acid
and waste, so we can readily understand
the-vital importance of keeping the kid
neys active. J
Drink lots of water you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast each morning for a few
days and your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for genera
tions to clean and stimulate clogged kid
neys; also to neutralize the acids in
urine so it no longer is a source of irri
tation, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean and active. Try this, also
keep up the water drinking, and no
doubt you will wonder what became of
your kidney trouble and backache.
