SALTS # KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to flush Kidneys and neutral
izs irritating acids-Splendid
for system.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and infame,
causing a burning, scalding sensation, or
setting up an irritation at the neck Of
the bladder, pbliging you to seek relief
two q three times during the night.
The sufferer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control uriination.
While it is extremely annoying and some
times very painful, this is really one Of
the most simple ailments to overcome.
Get about four ounces Of Jad Salts
from your pharmacist and take q table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast, continue this for. two OF three
days. This will neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer is . source Of
irritation to the bladder and urinary or
gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands Of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splen-
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, e~ffervescent
Whitewater drink, which quickly relieves
bladder trouble.

CHICAGO TIPS
$4,000 A DAY

Chicago, Nov. 25.-Chicago diners
in loop restaurants and hotels give
more than $4,000 every day in tips
to walters, according to estimates
furnished yesterday. This sum does
not represent the money given daily
to Chicago bellOoys, cabmen, JAM
tors, porters and the scores Of others
whose income is derived from tips.
A cable from Paris announces that
a careful statistician estimates that
tips given in the French city daily
will amount to $41,000. He has ak
en- in everything, from janitor to
waiter. .g
ABE Frank, manager of the North
American and Rector's restaurants,
says that more than 100000 persons
eat in the loop every day. A tabula.
ton of loop restaurants where tip.
ping is the thing brought the total
who dine in such places to 141, 1000. 7
The loop hotels have an average
daily "tipping population of 10000,
according to John Conway H%utchins
of the Hotel Sherman. Both Mr..
Frank and Mr.. Hutchins agree that
me haVefaSe Up Is ~ cents. Mf.
Hutchins says each OF the 10000 per
sons living in loop hotels tips three
times a day.
Putting the two together, it is
shown that a conservative estimate
o ftips given in the loop to waters
alone is in exces of 1874, 900.
What the amount would be if bell
hops, cabmen and the others We're
taken into consideration no one could
be found to estimate. Mr.. Frank said
that it would without uestion be
greatly in excess OF the amount
claimed for Paris.
"The tips in France are smaller
than they are in Chicago" said Mr..
Frank. "a waiter over there receiv-
ing a 25-cent tip considers it large
while here it is near the average"

ing that conditions in the oil regions
near Tuxpam are not as threatening
as was previously reported, held the
interest in official Washington in the
Mexican situation.
The message from Fletcher, who
left Vera Cruz on the Rhode Island
Monday, with John Lind, to invest1-
gate the alleged threatening condi-
tons in the oil districts Of Tuxpam
and Tampico, brought evident relief
to the officials.
The border situation, as a result
of the vigorous operations near Jua-
rez and the possibility of another
siege Of the border city, aroused the
war department to action, to afford
ample protection for Ell Paso and the
n%eighboring border territory.
Orders were issued for a regiment
from Fort Douglas, Utah, to Ell Paso,
in place of the Twentieth U. S. In
fantry, which will be used to preserve
order within the city limits. This
will permit the two regiments OF cay
airy now at, El Paso, Fort Bliss and
its environs, to guard the border.
The war department, upon the re-
quest of the American Red Cross, is
sued orders permitting the bringing
of wounded Mexican soldiers cro
the border into Ell Paso, the permits
sion applying to federal and consti-
%tutionalist soldiers, alike.
It was suggested last night that the
important result Of the rebel victory
at Juarez would bring into greater
prominence the question Of recogni.
ton by the United States government
OF Carranza's constitutionalist party
as the de facto government OF North
ern Mexico.
