Of pitch one afternoon.
The pot" hadlgrown so big it made
The players gasp and swoon.

1t was enough TO daze you,
But things were worse, please call

When another yelled "I'II raise

To get at the nerves various methods

Ludolph, II, 5212 N. Paulina street,
who on Dec. II was found working
in the store over II hours.
McLorkin pleaded that it was the
first violation on. Rothschild's part
since 1907 and was due to the care
lessness of department manager.
Judge Newcomer advised him to
make the manager pay the fine.
A mild sensation was sprung in
court in connection with the $25 fine
imposed on Moir Hotel Co., owners
of the Morrison Hotel and Boston 0y-
ster House, for obstructing inspect
ors.
Attorney Campbell representing
Harry c. Moir, head of the company,
who has made several million dollars
in fifteen years and who is notori-
GUS exploiter of scab labor, made the
charge that Nelson was prejudiced
against NOR because he didn't like
union labor.
The obstruction charge came up in
connection with a visit paid by In
spectors Shelton and HALEY to the
Morrison Hotel on New Years eve.
When they tried to get down into the
Boston Oyster House they were
barred by Manager H. A. Wright, it
is claimed.

Unseen in ils approach, hard to de-
tect in its early stages, and cruelty
painful in its later forms, uric acid
poisoning is a disease too often fatal
Bright's disease is one Of the final
stages Of uric acid poisoning. 1t kills
in our country every year more men
and women than any other ailment
except two-consumption and pneu-
monia. Bright's disease and uric acid
poisoning usually start In some kidney
weakness that would not be hard to
cure, If discovered early so 1t is well
to know the early signs of kidney dis
ease and uric poisoning,
When uric acid is formed too fast
and the kidneys are weakened by a
cold, or fever, by overwork, or by over
indulgences, the acid collects, the blood
gets impure and heavy, there is head
ache, dizziness, heart palpitation, and
a dull heavy-headed, drowsy feeling
with disturbances Of the urine.
Real torture begins when the uric
acid forms into gravel or stone In the
kidney, or crystallizes into jagged bits
in the muscles, joints or on the nerve
tubings. Then follow the awful pains

lea, neuritis, lumbago or kidney collie.

in the show window, had one that
attracted special attention. 1t was a
large picture representing an immense
lioness and four cubs. Together with
the praise bestowed on this group,
there was some criticism. What
fool artist got up that picture? said
an elderly observer, Anyone ought to
know that two cubs is the limit for
any licness. This word picked up
by a listener was. taken into the pic
ture house. This is rather overdo-

ANY one ought to know that two

in the picture house were greatly dis

WASHINGTON GETS PROTEST OF FRENCH

Washington, Sept. 22.-The protest of the French government against the destruction by the German batteries of the cathedral at Rheims was laid before the state department late yes terday by M. Jules Jusserand, the French ambassador. He presented it to Robert Lansing, counselor of the department, who in the absence of Bryan from the city is acting secre- tary of state.
 The ambassador was closeted with the acting secretary for nearly an hour. As he left the latters office and was surrounded by newspaper men his voice shook as he spoke of what he described as the latest out rage of the Kaiser's troops.
 Gentlemen, he said, ''I have sim ply laid before the state department notice of this outrage. The destruc- -tion of this sacred. historic edffice at Rheims is without parallel in the list of wanton acts of destruction which have characterized our foes activities in this war. Likewise it is without excuse.
 '"The cathedral at Rheims stood high above all other structures in and about Rheims. It rose colossal from out alone and unmistakab1e. No. guns aimed at it could have missed it, and none could have struck it by acci-. dent
 sHFhe French people, gentlemen, feel this outrage with the emotions with which the American people would re- gard the destruction Of the home of George Washington at Mount Yer non"

EXPORT TRADE HIT
 SINCE WAR BEGAN

Washington. Sept 22-Possibinties of the far reaching effect of the ELI 'ropean war on American trade are in dtcated in a review of consular re- ports published by the department Of commerce.
 Of the $s,0oO. .ooo,ooo worth of foreign products bought by Great Britain in 1912 the United States furnished 20 per cent, while Americas share of Germany's $2,5OO, 100000 worth of inn ports was 15 per cent. Eleven per cent. Of the $500 COG, ,O00 worth of pro ducts bought by France came from the United States.
 To what extent trade has been in- terrupted by war will be determined in a measure with the details Of NAu- gusts exports are compiled later this month The total value of the ex- ports was $110, 3S7, ,545 compared with s1S7, ,9O9 02O one year ago What part of that decrease was caused by war has not been discovered
 Other nations involved in the ESu- ropean conflict buy much of their inn ports from the United States. Eight per cent of Belgium's purchases in 1912, amounting to nearly LOGO COX, 900. came from American ports.
 The consular figures show that of the products, valued at $3OS, GOO, ,00O imported into Brazil in 1912. only af- teen per cent. came from the United States, although forty per gent. of BraziPs exports were sent to American ports.
