notl Come on now. old lady, wake up
and shuttle"
He was about to lay his hand upon
her shoulder when Sam gripped his
forearm and gently pashed him aside.
Astonished at his guests strength, the
husky Irishman stepped back. and
watched while Hill gently awoke the
old woman.
Awake, Nita," said Hill. Come, lit
tie blossom Of the bramble-vine, our
host Is giving US godspeed."
Quickly she was awake, regaining
consciousness with that speed which is
a faculty of those who are old. With
a grotesque gesture she straightened
the handkerchief upon her head, and
gathering her shawl about her with
one hand, she stretched the other
across the table to her glass.
ooh, my immortal SOUL" she NUT
tered. Just another little drop to keep
out the cold, my handsome boy"
Mix" said the barkeeper, "out you
go. This place is going to bed"
With much grumbling Old Nita
started for the door. which was at the
opposite end Of the apartment, and be-
yond that leading into the small room
into which Rowe had led his friends.
| Still puzzling about the appearance of
| the former, Hill buttoned his coat
| about him, and gathered up the bear
pole and chain, preparatory to follow
/ ing her. Who the deuce was that man
-ah-no, 1t could not be-yes. by
Jove. 1t was, though! One Of his ten
| ants with whom he had scarcely
spoken. A fellow who lived below the
studio. He put a supporting hand be-
meath Old Nita's elbow. One by one
the lights were being extinguished by
Mickey, till only a single lantern
burned near the exit.
Hurry up, now!" admonished the
proprietor.
Going, Ireland; good night" re-
sponded Hill smoothly.
Just then the door to the little inner
room was opened and three figures,
one of them the woman's, hooded and
yelled, appeared directly in their path.
How much, Mixer" said Rowe, step
ping forward. Then he caught sight
of the old woman, and stood for an
instant as though transfxed with
alarm. At the same moment she saw
his face, and her own became livid.
Rage, fear and hate were lurking there,
and shaking herself free Of Hill, she
sprang for Rowe, her old hands curled
like the claws of some vicious bird of
prey.
Devil" she screamed, have /
found thee at last?"
With an oath Rowe Tended her off,
his forearm striking her a stunning
blow, and then, quick as cat, he over
turned the last remaining lamp, and,
seizing the yelled lady, pushed to the
outer door, Sancho, who also seemed
to recognize the old woman, preceding
and opening 1t hastily. Old Nita,
stunned by the blow. fell to the floor,
while Hill sprang at Rowe-but too
late. For fleeting instant the Span
iard's face could be seen, sardonic. un-
earthly, In the white light from the
street, before he slammed the heavy
door to, catching Hill on the jaw with
the edge of 1t. Then he was gone with
his companions, while over the dark
turmoil and confusion in the bar lin
gered the echo of a laugh, mirthless
beyond description.

LESS MEAT IF BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take glass Of Salts to flush Kidneys
If Bladder bothers you-Drink
lots Of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys. they become overworked;
get sluggish: clog up and cause all
sorts Of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir-
ritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get 1t four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine SO it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

DANDRUFFY HEADS
BECOME HARMLESS
Scalp Dries-chokes out the Hair
And Prevents it's Growth.

II you want plenty of thick, beauti-
full, glossy, silky hair, do by all means
get rid of dandruff, for it will starve
your hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid Of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely
To do this, get about four ounces of or
binary liquid Arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning most. if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will be silky, fluffy, lus-
trous, soft and look and feel a hundred
times better. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. 1t is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need,
no matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never fails.

Committee of Ten to Appear
Before State Commission
Asking Reduction on

Second Body of Men Will
Make Complete Investiga-
ton of Schedule to Recon-
mend Change.

A committee of ten Richmond men,
users OF electric current for power,
Will one day this week go before the
Indiana public utilities commission and
request that the petition filed last Au-
gust by City Attorney Bond for 80
per cent reduction in power rates be
granted without further delay.
A committee of ten Richmond bust
ness men, to be appointed by John NJ
Lontz, president Of the F. & N. Lawn
mower company, is to make COM
plete investigation of the electric
power question in Richmond, but pend
ing the completion of this inquiry
local consumers hope to have the Pc
tition filed recently by Mr.. Bond acted
upon favorably by the commission.
In the effort to secure another pow
er rate reduction the municipal plants
competitor, the Light, Heat and Power
company, has been completely ignored.
1t is opposed to a further reduction
in this city until complete appraise-
ment of the two s0cal plants has been
made by engineers of the commits
sion 80 that the commission can act in
diligently In determining fair rate
schedules for the two concerns.
A few weeks ago the Light, Heat
and power company petitioned for an
appraisement of the two local plants,
and the company officials are conf
dent that no action will be taken on
the Bond petition until the commits
sion has had it's engineers make such
an appraisement.
