GOVERNOR WILL PROPOSE CHANGE IN PRIMARY LAW Nonpartisan Commission to ; Draft Bill for Submission to

Next Legislature. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. Dec. 10. Governor Goodrich decided Monday to appoint a nonpartisan commission of Democratic and Republican leaders to draft a new primary election law measure to be submitted to the coming legislature and to make changes in the absent voters' measure which was adopted two years ago. The commission may consider the registration law, to which much objection was raised this year. It is reported that bills will be presented asking for the repeal of the registration law and that a resolution for an amendment to the constitution permitting the adoption of a registration system for the larger counties only will be Introduced. Governor Goodrich said he had suggested to Chairman Fred Van Nuys of he Democratic state committee and to Secretary I W. Henley of the Republican organization the appointment of a nonpartisan commission to consider changes In the primary election and absent voters' laws. He declared that Chairman Van Nuys expressed himself In accord with the program and was desirous of cooperating with the Republicans in the matter. The same attitude was taken by Secretary Henley. The governor will appoint men to the committee suggested by the two state organizations. , Every District Represented. '.: It Is likely that prominent Republican and Democratic party workers from every district will be called into council with the commission in order to provide it with a concensus of opinion as to what should be done. The governor believes that the question is entirely nonpartisan and that if. the representatives of the two parties on the commission agree their plan will be Indorsed by the legislature. ; In a general way it has been proposed that the state-wide feature of the primary law shall be abolished; that the tickets shall be nominated by delegate conventions, the delegates being chosen by primary and that in counties where one part Is much stronger than its rival, the latter may of its own option, nominate by convention. The Democrats appointed a .committee recently to propose amendments to the primary election law. First Platform Bill Drawn. ; The first of the'Republlcan platform measures was completed at the headquarters at the Hotel Severin Monday afternoon. It is the one under which the departments of the state geologist, fth and game commissioner, state veterinarian, forester and entomologist are to be combined. The bill was prepared by Representative David A. Rothrock of Bloomlngton and Senator Aaron Wolfson of Indianapolis. It provides for the appointment of a board of conservation commissioners of four members, two Republicans and two Democrats, who shall serve for four years under appointment by the governor. The general work of the board will be directed by an executive secretary who shall receive not to exceed $6,000 a year. The heads of the various departments will be appointed by the board with the approval of the governor. Their salary will be fixed by the board. The bill, which is a long one, sets forth the duties of the various departments. The law would become effective after the legislature. All of the departments except that of state geologis are now appointive. .Governor Goodrich suggested the combination of these departments two years ago. The Swiss federal council has decreed the adoption or 24-hour tlrn for railroads and other institutions under goverment control at a date yet to be determined.

PHYSICALLY FIT AT ANY AGE It isn't age, it's careless living that puts men "down and out." Keep your internal organs in good condition and vou will always be physically fit. Watch the kidneys. The kidneys are the most overworked organs in the human body. When they break down under the strain ,and the deadly uric acid accumulates and crystallizes, look out! These sharp crystals tear and scratch the delicate urinary channels causing excruciating pain and set up irritations which may cause premature degeneration and often do .turn into . deadly Bright's Disease. One of fhe first warnings of sluggish kidney action is pain or stiffness in the small of the back, high colored or scanty urine, loss of appetite, indigestion or rheumatism. Do not wait until the danger is upon you. At the first indication of trouble go after the cause at once. Go to your druggist immediately. Get a trial box of GOLD MEDAL. Haarlem Oil Capsules, imported direct from the laboratories in Holland, where they have been, in use for over two hundred years. They will give almost immediate relief. If for any cause they should not your money will be refunded. But be sure to get GOLD MEDAL. None other is genuine. In sealed boxes, three sizes. Adv.

MURRETTE

Way back in the early days of the world when sirens were unknown by that word women were wont to be fickle hearted. Their vanity was touched when they found themselves pursued by more than one sweetheart. How a modern siren dangles men's hearts at the tips of her fingers, fights off her suitors and eventually gets the man of her choice is depicted In the latest Theda Bara super-production, "The She Devil," to be presented by William Fox, at the Murrette today. Theda Bara, the wellknown screen siren, was never seen to better advantage than in her latest production. She plays the role of a Spanish Juanita, one of those languid, dreamy sylph-like women of Sunny Spain. .

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys; they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary 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 passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and In a few days 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 generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so It no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. . .Tad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then lo keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.
