DR.. KAP[AN Gets
LEAVE FOR YEAR
Will Take Course in Berlin
During Absence; Daughter
to Accompany Him

Rev. DR.. Bernard Kaplan has been
granted years leave of absence by
the trustees Of the Bush street tenn
pie and will leave shortly to take up
special courses in ethics and philos-
ophy at the Berlin university. Miss
Blanche Kaplan, his talented daugh-
ter. will accompany him to continue
her musical studies.
Prof Aaron. Altman, president of
the congregation, expressed the feel
ing OF his people when he said:
Every one in the congregation so
loves Doctor Kaplan and his charm
ing family that we all take a per-
sonal interest in his welfare We all
feel that his unusually gifted daugh-
ter, Blanche. will some day be an
honor to San Francisco. and we wish
her to have the opportunity to go
abroad for further study, which she
could not do unless her father went
with her, her mother not being well
enough to undertake this long and
hard trip. We are sorry to part with
Doctor Kaplan even for year. He
has been an inspiration to all who
came in contact with him.
Not only were his sermons and
addresses masterpieces of scholarship
and eloquence, but his personal life
was the most beautiful sermon. He
worked hard and faithfully and was
at the beck and call of everybody in
the community, and we feel that he
is entitled to all the courtesies we
may extend to him.
AT his own request we are taking
a minister to fill his pulpit in his
absence"

TAKE SALTS To
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Back
achy or have Bladder
Trouble

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter 1t from the system
Regular eaters of meat must nush
the kidneys occasionally. You must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains In
the back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you to
get up two or three times during the
night
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urfnous waste,
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; table table,
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your kid
neys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts
is inexpensive: harmless and makes a
delightful effervescent lithia-water
drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoid
ing serious kidney and bladder dis
eases.-Advertiseme

KIDNEY AND BLADDER
TROUBLES DISAPPEAR
Chronic Sufferers Always Find
Relief From Few Doses

If you are bothered with backache-
or rheumatism. have disagreeable, an
noying bladder or urinary disorders to
contend with--or suffer with any
other OF the many miseries that come
from weak kidneys, here is a guaran-
teed remedy you can depend upon.
1t Is positive fact that Croxone
promptly overcomes such disorders
1t soaks right In, cleans out the
stopped up kidneys and makes them
filtef and sift out the poisonous waste
matter from the blood. 1t neutralixes
and dissolves the uric acid that lodges
in the joints and muscles, causing
rheumatism; soothes and heals the
delicate Innings of the bladder
More than . few doses of Croxone
are seldom required to relieve even
the obstinate, long standing cases.
You will find Croxone entirely DIFF
ferent from all other remedies. It is
SO prepared that 1t is practically i'm
possible to take 1t without results.
An original package costs but trifle
and your druggist Is authorized to re-
turn the purchase price If Croxone
fails to give the desired results the
very first time.--Advertfeemen

These suits follow an effort Of Ham
ford to induce "Borax" Smith, who
has control OF the United Properties
company, to relinquish all interests in
the concern for $1.000,000, Hanford
promising in his offer to the trustees
OF the company to assume all liabili-
ties. The trustees have for several
weeks been meeting in an EFFORT to
determine inst who Is back of Han
ford and whether the offer Is bona
ffde or not. They assert that so far
they have been unable to find who is

failed to arrive at any conclusion in
the matter.

Smith has issued a statement in
which he says he has not received an
offer from any one to give him any
money at all.
Hanford and his associates declare
1t is Smiths next play in this financial
game Of checkers in which millions

called by Huerta. The majority ad-
mitted they were in possession of a
complete program to be carried out,
but many asserted that a way has
been found for adjusting the difficult
ties existing between the American
and Mexican governments This is
outlined as follows, declaring the pro-
gram as accepted by Huerta and his
cabinet:
1-oT receive Huerta's message de-
Tending his course of action as re-
CARDS the preceding congress and to
indorse his action.
2--To declare the recent election IL

S-To select new provisional presi-
dent, probably Pedro Lascurain, but
this selection is subject to change.
ITO order a new election.
5-To adjourn without acting on the
concession matters.
INDORED BY UNITED STATES
These political prophets declared
the inaction of the American govern
ment due to the fact that it had been
advised of the program and asked if
it would be willing to accept that
method of eliminating Huerta if car
ried to conclusion. They pointed out
that in the message of Huerta there
was no reference to the United States
so far as it was made public here, and
intimated that the message had been
sent to washington long before it was
allowed to reach the newspaper men
Mexico City.
DEFENDS HIS DICTATORSHIP
In his message Huerta defends
his arrest of the members of the last
chamber of deputies, saying: The
government under my charge was
placed in a dilemma, either to permit
the chamber of deputies to be con-
verted into a demagogical convention
by stranging the other two powers of
overnment-namely, the executive
and judicial--and to drag the country
into an abyss OF bloodthirsty anarchy,
thus causing the inevitable loss of our
nationality, or as a legitimate, de-
fensive act in behalf of the public
welfare to set aside for short time
the so called national assembly and
call the people to the polls in order
that they, as the sovereign faction.
