ST. LOUIS. Jan. 17.-Rsv. James r.

finally his conversion through the in
Auence Of his mother.
Mr. Smith now is pastor Of the Olive
Branch Congregational Church. His
father moved to Jacksonville. Ill, from
the South, where he became a member
of the faculty Of the illinois Female

Mr. Smith told how Secretary of

Immortality to
be Sermon Topic

Life After Death" Will be the
theme of a sermon by Rev A. Z.
Shattuck Sunday evening at the First
Congregational church.
1T is no longer sufficient to point
to the story OF the empty tomb of
Jesus as a proof of our life beyond
the grave" said Mr.. Shattuck. The
Bible gives us bewildering reports
OF the resurrection of Jesus: the
modern man asks, What is the great
truth back OF all this story that gives
foundation to our faith in a future
hfe2' Our belief in life after death
must be squared with what science
tells us about ourselves, otherwise it
is not faith but superstition.
Sir Oliver Lodge recently stirred
the scientific world with his strong
positi' ltterance in support of an
assurance of future life. mighty
imposing array of distinguished men
of science are today affirming its
existence as d necessity essential to
any intelligent understanding of
mans life. ] shall seek to present
the latest word of modern science
and religious thought concerning
life after death. This is to be the
last in the series OF sermons on
Twentieth Century Christianity. -"

filter the waste and poisons from the

sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache

stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy: take tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
hined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the
acids in urine so it no longer causes
irritation, thus ending bladder weak

Jad Salts is inexpensive and can

everyone should take now and then
to keep the kidneys clean and active
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding

M'MAHAN TO ACT
AS CLAIMS JUDGE
Will Decide Whether City
Mules Injured Electric
Automobile.

City Controller McMahan must pre-
side as a judge Of court of claims
because Richard Sedgwick AYERS a
pair of mules owned by the city
charged his electric car, damaging
it to the extent of $11.75, and City
Clerk Bescher is to ascertain IL Mrs
Lilly Grothaus still desires to stand
pat on her remonstrance against an
electric light at South Eighth and H
streets, where she was held up and
robbed a few nights ago, following
the filing of her remonstrance.
MIR. Sedgwick's claim against the
city for damages done his electric car
was presented to the board of public
works today, and the board ordered
the controller to decide whether or
not the claim should be allowed from
sworn evidence presented him, by wit
nesses in a claims court. Mr.. Sedg-
wick alleges that as Mrs. Sedgwick
and a woman companion were driv-
ing past Eleventh street on Main a
wagon of the municipal plant hauled
by two mules dashed across Main
street and collided with the car.
Whether the mules used their hoofs
on the electric after the accident the
board was not informed.
Takes Part Of Mules.
Manager Kleinknecht of the light
plant urged that the claim not be al
lowed, for he says the men in the
wagon, which was responding to an
emergency call to put up a fallen
primary wire, have informed him that
the electric ran into the mules. AL
though the evidence in the case is
incomplete it is known that the cleo
trio car got all the worst of it in the
mixup. City Clerk Bescher urged ex-
IRENE precautions in the settling of
the claim, because he had been inform
ed Mrs. Sedgwick's companion was
slightly injured in the accident. If the
city is obligated to pay the Sedgwick
claim such action might pave the way
for damage suit against the city on
the part of the injured woman, the
clerk thought. City Attorney Bond,
however, disagreed with him. To
avoid similar accidents in the future

Only One Able-B Bodied Man
at County Farm Last Year

One able-bodied man out Of forty
four inmates, including nine women,
is the report of the retiring physician
Of the poor farm, DR.. Fouts, Of Center
vile. There has been a steady de-
crease in the number Of inmates at
the home and last year there were
fourteen less than six years ago.
OF the nine women at the farm, COM
pared with sixteen the preceding
year, two are feeble minded; three in
sane; one epileptic; one crippled; two
feeble from age; and one in a sickly
condition.
The number of women decreased
seven from last year and the num-
Der Of men increased five and there
are now thirty-five male inmates on
the poor farm.
County Auditor Bowman attributes
the unequal number to the fact that
relatives and children are more in
clined to aid an aged or destitute
woman than they are a man. Many
of the men on the farm have been
placed in their condition through
chronic alcoholism.
There are seven feeble minded,
