"Pancho'' Villa did not waste time, TO-
day, exultSng over the victory Of his
rebel troops over the combined federal
forces at TERRA Blancha. He was too

The eonstitutfonalista leader says
practically all of his soldiers nave
been withdrawn from TERRA Blanca
only a line OF pickets remaining u
prevent a federal attempt to resume

He declined to discuss his plans, but
II Is believed In few days he Will

Reports Of executions OF federal
prisoners ON the battlefield continue

them. 1t is impossible to learn how
many men were slain thus.

If KIDNEYS and
BLADDER BOTHER
TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH KIDNEYS
AND NEUTRALlZE lRRlTAT-
ING ACIDS.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where il often remains to irritate and
infiame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation. or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes some
times 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 urination
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes 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 a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acids 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
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant. effer-
vescent Whitewater drink. which
quickly relieves bladder trouble.
The Century Drug Store sells Jad
Salts.

Beauty But Health
And The Basis Of Her Health And
vigor Lies In the Careful Resuia-
ton of the Bowels.

IL woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be
picture of loneliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. 1t lies in health. In
the majority of cases the basis OF
health and the cause of sickness, can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitudes, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully. they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
it is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
quirements, is DR.. Caldwel1s Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of women en-
dorse highly, among them Mrs. c. S.
Vance, of 511 Ray St., New Castle, Pa.
At times she had spells of indigestion
so severe that she thought she would
die. Syrup Pepsin regulated her stom-
ach and bowels, and she attributes her
excellent health today to this remedy.
All the family can use DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin. for thousands of mothers
give it to babies and children. 1t is
also admirably suited to the require
ments of elderly people, in fact to all
who by reason of age or infirmity can
not stand harsh salts, cathartics, pills

and into the iron. or heating element.
This element is made of metal and
called resistance wire
The electricity passing through the
resistance wires causes them to be-
come red hot almost Immediately
This heat is then transferred to the
bottom of the iron. or working sur
face. The heating element is shaped
to conform to the iron. and thus the
heat is evenly distributed over the
entire bottom surface.
In nearly every iron some means
are provided to keep all the heat on
the bottom. where it may be used.
Otherwise the top part of the iron
would become hot also. and the heat
wasted.
The heating element in an electric
iron is the only part which is liable
to become out of order. And in the
majority. of cases it is due to care
lassness in leaving the current on
when the iron Is not in use. A new
element may easily be installed and
at a very nominal cost.
