pretended: claims against toe regular-
ity of the election" Mrs. Miriam A.
rerguson Wednesday issued a state-
ment to "The People. of Texas." re-
questing them promptly to ascertain
the vote for governor id their coun-
ties and "see tbat the full report is
forwarded to the secretary of Bute."
"Yon the people of Texas" she
said "have woo this election and we
must see that the rote is counted.
Her statement follows:
'The victory was won on yesterday
for constitutional government and reli-
gious liberty. Notwithstanding the
rote of the people was overwheuping-
Ar in my favor my opponent i)r
Butte refuses to concede the election
and is now Disking all sorts of
pretended claims against the regular-
ity of the election.
"The Texas election bureau which
has heretofore been in charge of the
publication of the result of the elec-
tion has decided not to give out any
Inore reports for the reason that there
should be no contest or contention (is
' the result of the victory on the 4th.
To avoid the further expense the
bureau has not deemed it necessary to
function further.
"But in view of the fact that Dr.
Butte is now making groundless con
tenrion. I will appreciate it very
much if my friends everywhere in
Texas will promptly ascertain what
the vote for governor was in their
respective counties and see that the
full report of the election Is for-
warded to the secretary of State at
Austin In accordance with the law
made and provided. Ynu. the people
of Texas have won this election and
We mut now see that the vote in
eointed.
"Thanking our fripnds for their sup-
port end asking their further co-op-
eration in this matter I am with re-
newed gratitude.

Take Salts to Wash Kidneys
if Back Pains You or

Flush yonr kidneys by drinking J
quart of water each day also take
salts occasionally says a noted "au-
thority who tells us that too tottch
rich food forms acids which almost
paralyse the kidneys in their efforts to
expel it from the blood. They become
sluttish and weaken; then you may
suffer with a dull misery in the kid-
ney region sharp pains In the back or
sick headache dissiness your stomsch
sours tongue is coated and when tbe
weather is bad you have rheumstie
twjnges. The urine gets cloudy full
of sediment the channels often get
sore and irritated obliging yon to seek
relief two or three times daring the
night
To help neutralise these Irritating
adds to help cleanse tbe kidneya and
flush off tbe body's urinous waste get
four ounces of Jad Baits from any
fihannacy here; take a tablespoonful
n a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys may
then' set fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes snd
lemon juice combined with llthla and
has been used for years to help flush
and stimulate sluggish kidneys; also to
neutralize the adda in the system so
ther no longer irritate thus often re

MRS. A. KUNE.
Durinc her service as a practical
nurse Mrs. Kline gained unuaual;
knowledge of suffering and ill health
and of the effect of medidne. There;
fore what she has to say about Plant;
Juice ia based not only upon her per
sonal experience with this medicine:
hut also upon ber general knowledge
of such matters which makes ber
statement of unusual importance to'
suffering people. '
"Ever since I was 10 I had bad t'
pain in the small of my back from my
kidneys." said Mrs. Kline. "I had suf-

would often think I had heart trouble.
I 'was very nervous and often got np
