WALTER GETS
THREE MONTHS
"Curley Joe" Convicted of
Conspiracy to Sell Court
Nomination

New York, Feb. 5.--Joseph Cassidy,
former Democratic boss of Queens coun-
ty and William Willett, former Con-
gresham, were sentenced yesterday to
serve not more than year or less than
six months in Sing Sing prison and to
pay 81 900 fine. Louis r. Walter, IT., a
politician, was sentenced to three
months and fined 81 900. Willett was
convicted of paying bride to Cassidy
for supreme court nomination. Walter
was the go-between.
Walters counsel told the court that
his client had no money and that, there
fore, the fine imposed would mean that
he would have to serve an extra SEN
tence Of nearly three years. Justice
Jaycox said that at the end Of the three
months the prisoner might make repre-
sentation regarding the condition of his
affairs and new arrangement might
then be made. Counsel for the three
defendants said that they would apply
some time yesterday for an order to
show cause why a certificate of reason
able doubt should not be issued. This
application would operate automatical-
~ as stay of sentence. Other prepa-
rations, they said had been made for
an appeal. Should the sentence stand
the greatest length of time Cassidy and
Willett would have to serve is year
and six conths, but by good behavior
they might shorten their terms to a
year.

MAKING A FACE
FROM HIS ARMS
Man Mangled in Sawmill Undergoes
Unique Treatment at Hands of
Surgeons.

Baltimore, Md. Feb with part
of his forearm substituting for new lips,
Ross Allen, young Canadian, at hos
pital here, seems to be in favorable
way to have practically the whole OF
his face newly shaped.
Allen entered the hospital about two
months ago with his face distigured
from an accident in saw mill five
years previously His nose and lips
were missing.
A section of the flesh shaped to the
form OF his lower lip was cut on his
forearm in December and grating
iuncture made with the lip base. The
arm was bound about the head until
the grating was complete. This CON
srmed about two weeks. when sufli-
eient adherence having taken place, the
lip section was severed from the arm
and the lip shaped.
The same procedure was followed in
the upper lip treatment, section of
the arm flesh being grated across the
upper gum and the arm strapped to Al
lens head and shoulder until this sec
ton, too, had taken hold.
When Allen aceumulates sufficient
strength for another operation the SUR
geons will try to build him new nose.
1t is planned to cut away piece of
healthy cartilage from one of the ribs
at the junction with the breastbone,
shape it to the form of nose with the
nostril openings, and insert it in place
OF the missing organ. The skin, which
will have been previously slit for the
insertion of the substitute bone, is then
to be drawn over the bone and healing
awaited
1t is expected that the cartilage will
adhere to the facial bones and in time
become an integral part of the skull
structure. Several months viii be need
ed for the complete operation.

SALTS IF KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
tralize Irritating Acids-Splendid
for System.

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 it often remains to irritate and
inilame, causing burning, scalding SEN
sation, 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 sometimes with
a scalding sensation and is very pro-
fuse; again, there is difficulty in void
ing 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 glass of water be-
fore breakfast, continue this for two or
three days. This will neutralize 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 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 SPLEEN
did for kidneys and causes no bad effects
whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, effervescent
Whitewater drink, which quickly re-
lieves bladder trouble.-Adyt.
