Rheumatism Is a direct result OF
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood. II is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast II out
in the urine: the pores of the skin are
also a means of freeing the blood
OF this impurity, In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are
closed thus forcing the kidneys to do
double work, they become weak and
sluggish and fail to eliminate the ur-
ic acid which keeps accumulating and
circulating through the system, even
tually settling in the joints and mus
cles causing stiffness soreness and
pain called rheumatism,
At the first twinge OF rheumatism

ounces OF Jad Salts; put tablespoon
ful in a glass OF water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action, thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.

one point: namely, the identity Of the

Borovinski, professionally known TO the
people Of the underworld as La Taran-

Who Is she?'
Probably the most beautiful. unscrup-
ulous, reckless, daredevil spy in all Eu-
rope, Sir Charles. She Is a Russian by
birth but owes allegiance to no country
and to no crown. Together with her
depraved brother. Boris, and her equally
desperate paramour, Nicolo Ferrand, she
forms one of a trio OF paid bravos who
for years have been at the beck and
call OF any nation despicable enough to
employ them; always ready for any piece
of treachery or dirty work so long as
their price is paid-as cunning as SER
pents, as slippery as eels, as clever as
the devil himself and as patient. We

sound one; but in the present instance
there isn't a ghost Of a chance OF such
a thing having happened. In other words,
Sir Charles, Il is as unsound in theory
as II is false in fact. Mr.. Narkom has
been telling me on the way here that
the operator accounted for the sudden
starting Of the message to the falling
of a storm-snapped wire upon an unin-
jured one and to its abrupt cessation to
the sudden slipping on Of the broken
wire under the influence of the strong
gale. Now as we entered the town and
proceeded through il / particularly noted
the fact that no broken wires were any
where visible nor was there sight or sign
Of men being engaged In repairing one"
"Ah, yes" agreed Sir Charles, a tribe
obviously, that may be quite so, Mr..
Cleek. but, If you will pardon my sug-
costing 1t, is there not the possibility
Of a flaw in your reasoning upon that
point? The wire in question may not
have been located In that particular dis
trict through which you were traveling?"

Mr.. Narkom will tell you, Sir Charles,
that from our time OF starting this morn
