Washington.—To facilitate the work
, of raising the military forces culled
I for by the nrmy draft law, now in
J effect, the war department has issued
j liie following letter of instruction, by
j which nil officials connected with the
I duly will he governed :
The approval of the new national
I army bill and the president's proelamn-
i thereunder have been coincident.
| All rx rsons within the age limits pre-
scribed are reijulred to present them-
I selves for registration at the customary
i voting places In the voting precincts
In which they have their permanent
homes, on a day which the president
I will announce.
There was n time in the country's
I history when military enumerators,
backed by bayonets, went out among
I the people to take a compulsory serv-
| Ice census. Today, under tire principle
! of universal liability to service, the ex-
ecution of the law is put Into the
hands of the people.
The governor of each state Is the
chief of registration therein. The ma-
I chlnery of registration in each county
| Is in charge of the sheriff, the county
I clerk, and the county physician, uct-
1 Ing ex officio, unless a different board
j shall be announced by the governor. In
I cities containing imputations of more
! " an 30.000, the registration will be
under the control of the mayor and st>-
lected boards of registration. In order
that the dislgnated county and city
officials, ami the pie generally, can
get a clear understanding of the cen-
sus methods the .following brief out-
line Is given: *
The sheriffs, or other designated offl-
clals. Immediately upon receiving no-
tice from the governor, shall appoint
registrars for each voting precinct.
Apportionment of Registrars.
The proportion of registrars shall be
one for each 1T0 persons to he regis-
tered. Ivich age ti> be registered will
comprise about 1 per cent of the popu-
lation.
If, for Instance, all men between
nineteen and twenty-live years of age.
inclusive, are to be registered, the reg-
istrar would have to enroll about 7
per cent of the precinct population.
It Is desirable to accept the services
of competent volunteer registrars to
serve without compensation. All reg-
istrars must be sworn.
The voting place In each precinct
must be prepared for registration. Full
! printed Instruction* covering every de-
I tall of registration will be in the hands
of sheriffs and mayors on the fifth day
i after the president's proclamation.
Cities of Over 30,000 Population.
The mayor of a city containing more
than inhabitants, or the officials
designated by the governor therein,
shall, with approval of the governor.
; appoint for each ward or convenient
minor subdivision containing about 30.-
: (son people one registration board, and
1 shall designate one officer of each
hoard to perform duties similar to
I those Imposed on the sheriff, a- V re-
tofore outlined. If the mayor desires.
| he may appoint a central board to co-
j ordinate the work- of minor bonitfs.
Duties of Ccunty Clerks, and of
Clerks of Cities of Over 30,000
People.
On the fifth day after the president
lias Issued his proclamation, clerks of
j <-.>itn!les nnd cities of over 30.0<ni must
i secure n supply of blanks mid Copies
of the registration regulations from
I the sheriff or from the mayor. Absen-
i tees nud the sick will apply to such
clerks to have their registration cards
filled out. In no case shall snrh per-
sons be given registration certificates.
They are to be Instructed by the clerk
that the bnrden Is on them to see to It
that the cards reach the registrars of
their home precincts by registration
day.

of the county where he mny be staying,

president's proclamation, if he Is In a
city of over Itn.OOO |sipulatlon, the ctty
clerk Is the official to whom to app'y.
The absentee will be told how to reg-
ister. but he must mall his card in
time to reach his precinct by registra-
tion tlay.
Persons too sick to present them-
selves Tor registration must send a
competent person to the county or city
clerk oo the s4*tb day after the Is-
suing of the proclamation. The clerk |

tions will be In the hands of all sheriffs
and of the officials of cities of over

The president is authorized to call
Ufmiii nil public officers to assist In the
execution of the law. The plan Is,
however, to rely on the people for the
proper execution of the law. It Is ex-
pected that patriotic citizens will offer
their services free as registrars. Such
edged. Volunteers for this service
should communicate Immediately with !
the proper official.
Backache
In spite of the best care one takes
of oneself, any part of the human machine
is liable to bocome out of order. The
mo6t important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. Their signals of
distress are easily recognized and in-
clude such symptoms as Lwkache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head-
aches, dizziness, rheumatic "twinges,
dropsy, gout.
"The vcrv best way to restore the
kidneys, to their normal state of health,"
says L)r. Pier<-e, of Buffalo, N. Y., "is to
dr:nk plenty of pure water ant^ obtain
from your "favorite pharmacy a fhi:.i1
amount of Anuric, which is dispensed by
almost every druggist." Anuric is inex-
pensive and should be taken before meals.
You will find Anuria more potent than j
lithia, dissolves uric acid as water does
