NEW USE FOR WIRELESS.
Employed in Fixing Boundary Line
Between Brazil and Peru,

The latest known use to which wireless
is to be put is in fixing the boundary
line through hundreds of miles of al
most unknown territory between Brazil
and Peru.
Details as to how this work is to be
done have been received here. This
wireless surveying will make practical
what would have been an almost i'm
possible task through the dense jungle
growth that covers a considerable part
of the territory in question.
\ wireless message viii be flashed
from a given station at a certain time.
If it is received by another station one
second later, the difference in time indi-
Gates their difference in longitude and
the distance separating them can be
readily determined.
If it had not been for the discovery
that wireless could be made the servant
Of the surveyors in fixing final from
tier lines i'll the Amazon basin, it would
have been necessary for them to cut

IF KIDNEYS and
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating
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 it often re-
mains to irritate and inflame,
causing a burning, scalding sensa-
ton, or setting up an irritation at
the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three
times during the night. The SUI
ferer IS IN constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a
scaldIng sensation and is very pro-
fuse; again. there is difficulty in
avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks
call it, because they can't control
urinatiCn. 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
neutralize the acid in the urine
50 1t no longer is a source OF irri-
tation to the bladder and urinary
organs, which then act normally
again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harm
less, and is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and is used by thou
sands 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 plea ant, effer-
vescent litllia- water drink, which
quickly relieves bladder trouble.

Ruling of Arkansas Court.

The supreme court of Arkansas held
that a telephone company, being pub
lie servant, cannot refuse to serve any
one of the public in that capacity in
which it has undertaken to serve the
house when such one offers to pay its
rates and abide by its reasonable regula-
tons. The court held it could not refuse
to serve an individual until payment of
debt contracted for services rendered
in the past.
The telephone company claimed that
Mrs. Danaher owed it 81 for two months
rental. She claimed she had paid this
rental and held receipts therefor.

Of dangerous calomel, which is

Dodson's Liver Tone is a

Bending over at my work, no

| was bothered that way and |
used Doan's Kidney Pills.
They strengthened my kidneys
