WASHINGTON, Feb. 21. Final ac

tion on the bill appropriating $750,000,000 for the Railroad Administration's revolving fund went over last night In the house after rejection of an amendment to end Federal control next January 1, and of another preventing the president from returning the lines to private owners before , July 1, 1920, "without consent of congress., . , . , The amendment to return the roads on January 1 was proposed by Representative Rayburn of Texas, after government operation had been denounced by both republican and democratic members. .. Representative Each, of Wisconsin, offered a substitute to the Rayburn amendment, prohibiting the president from returning the roads without the consent of congress before July 1, 1920. .His substitute was supported by Representative Decker of Missouri, who declared that ; if the Rayburn amendment were passed the railroads would revert to "their mismanagement" of before the war, as congress might not have time to work out the problem this year.: : Amendment Defeated. Chairman Sims, of the Interstate Commerce Committee, said the railroad question was such an important one no action should be. taken either for fixing a definite date when the

roads should be returned or restricting the president from returning them If economic conditions of the country required it.-' , The substitute was defeated by a ;vote of 91 to; 73, and the Rayburn 'amendment by a vote, of 103 to 61. Representative Sherley, , Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, insisted upon a vote on the bill, but Republican Mann objected, and on his motion the house adjourned. ; , ;

The world is to be searched by officer1 of the Royal Northwest Mounted Pn lice to locate former members of th Scarlet Riders and bring them bac' to the fold. r When the European war broke ouf the mounted police were not permit ted to enlist as a unit.

"But you aren't really worried over your boss's change of fortune, are you?" asked Roy Nicoll when the car was well under way and he became conscious of Janet's pleasurable presence cuddled warmly, if silently, up against his shoulder. . "I certainly am," she answered promptly. "It's a beastly shame to have David Temple put out of office. It's a disgrace to our politics!

But now, of course, it's out of the question. He'll have to stick at his salaried job." Nicoll thought it wouldn't hurt him any to do so. But he kept silent out of consideration or sympathy or pity or friendship or or whatever he felt toward Janet Stedman. Roy had never deliberately analyzed what "emotions he did feel for her. He was not given to introspections. When Janet was Miss Thayer and worked in his office years ago he had not allowed himself to become avowedly interested in her. however much

DAILY HEALTH TALKS Better be Careful About. Your Kidneys BY N. B. COOK, M. D. Foods taken into the stomach go through various chemical changes, and some of these changes are poisons that must be sifted out and disposed of. It is the duty of the kidneys to do this. When the kidneys do not fully perform their vital work, death may be only a few hours away. Happily, Nature has provided warning alarms telling people when their kidneys are not well. These warnings come in the form of dragging pains in the small of tho back, weak stomach, low spirits, chills, nausea, headache, scanty urine and fre

quent desire to pas3 it, short breath, numbness, cramps, coated tongue, bad breath, puffs under the eyes, thin blood, dry skin, ringing in the ears, spots before the eyes and many other symptoms. All come from the one cause of kidneys that are not filtering the poisons out of the system. To overcome these troubles. Dr. Pierce, "of Buffalo, N. Y., compounded what he calls Anuric Tablets. No other kidney medicine is its equal in giving relief and reestablishing healthful work in the kidneys. The treatment is very simple, as you need nothing except water when taking Anuric Tablets a glass of water with each tablet. This washes and flushes the kidneys while the medicine itself is dissolving the uric acid poisons and driving them , out. Anuric Tablets are made double strength, so that they dissolve uric acid the same at hot water dissolves salt or sugar. Most people need Anuric Tablets because most people have urio acid. Better get that poison out of your body for safety's sake, and better begin today. To gently and agreeably coax the bowel back into normal activity, take Dr Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are Jus as good for costrvenass as his Anuric Tab lets are good for kidney disorders, and tha rw:-!'r n. rrcat deal. - - - - -

One of the remarkable things about the Hupmobile is the frequency with which it out-points heavier, costlier, and even more powerful cars in casual competition. Owners expect the Hupmobile to climb hills on high gear, and even gain speed where many drivers drop to "second." They expect their cars to be first away at the traffic signal; to pick up with lightning swiftness when under way. They enjoy an especial comfort in Hupmobile nimbleness, and in the knowledge that they can always count on extraordinary performance. At the Same old Stand with Jones & Farmers' -
