IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Baekache is a sign you have been
eating too much meat which
forms uric acid.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving. all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are Obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for n few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. 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,
also to neutralize acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, effer-
vescent lithia-wa ter drink.

DIRECTORATE INQUIRY
ASKED BY HINEBAUCH
Resolution Calls for Investigation of
Intefiockins' Boards of New
York Central System.

Representative William II. Hine-
baugh. of Illinois, today will Introduce
a resolution in the House calling on
the Interstate Commerce Commission n
to investigate the influence of the in
terlocking directorates of the New
York Central system. including the
Michigan Central Railroad Company
and the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern Railroad, upon the railroad
costs, service. and rates OF transporta-
ton.
In the resolution Mr.. Hinebaugh
gives the resignation of ]. p. Morgan
from the directorates of about thirty
corporations as the main reason for
seeking an inquiry. He believes there
were deeper causes why Mr.. Morgan
resigned from the various directorates
than Mr.. Morgan's own explanation
that these designations were made
possible by change in public senti-
ment."
The resolution states that the New
York Central owns 50 per cent of the
stock Of the Michigan Central and 80 per
cent Of the stock of the Lake Shore Mr..
charges that the board of di-
rectors OF the New York Central, con-
sisting of thirteen men, William X.

act. 1t vas brought conspicuously be-
fore the public in the trial of the Diggs-
Caminetti cases in California, where tbl
court ruled that the prosecution did not
need to show that the TRANSFORMATION of
two young women involved across State
lines had been for a commercial pur-
pose.
In another case. heard since then. the
United States District Court for the
Northern district of Illinois instructed the
jury to dismiss the charge against the
defendant unless the commercial ASPECT
of the alleged violation Of the law had
been established to their satisfaction.
Attorney General McReynolds never has
announced formally his construction of
the act. 1t is believed on good authority,
however. that he regards the obligations
laid upon the Federal government by the
Mann act as covering only violations de-
signed for commercial purposes, and that
the enforcement of laws bearing upon
personal immortality is a police duty
which should be left to the States.

GIVES ADVICE TO YOUNG men

In 'an old Methodist talk" before the
pal Church, at Ninth and streets north

ard Kelly, the Baltimore cancer expert,
who is treating Representative Bremner
with radium. and is said to have effect
ed many cures with that means, for his

After saying that DR.. kelly-whom he
characterized as probably the greatest
surgeon in this country-never picked up
his knife to perform an operation with
out making a prayer to the Almighty;
Secretary Daniels took out Of his coat
pocket a copy of DIR. KeIly's confession
of faith and read it He commented
extensively on the fact that DIR. Kelly
had "backslid" when studying in Ger
many, but after twenty years of doubt
had studied his Bible carefully and re-
gained his faith in christianity.
The Rev. s. Townsend Weaver. pastor
of the church, had the secretary's flag.
an immense blue silk banner, carrying
four stars and an anchor. draped over
the altar
When he began his address Mr.. Daniels
pointed to the flag and said: II am not
thinking SO much of armament and
Dreadnoughts as Uf the 5000 boys who
are under my care" Accordingly. much
of his address consisted of advice to-
young men.
Mentioning persecution and skepticism
as two great enemies of religion. Secre-
tary Daniels said that the modern foe
was indifferent, n cowardly and in
sidious enemy" At the conclusion of
Mr.. Daniels talk the pastor elected him
