various points.

theaters, who have motored to the
show, have found their automobiles
have been used while they we're In
the theater. Reports were made to
the police q day or two ago Of cars
being taken, In one instance for a
trip to the Country club. en- which the
motors were almost burned out from

several boys climb into a car stand
ing near Ninth and Grace streets. and
attempt to start 1t. With the assist
ance Of George l. Kern, who drove
the car for the officer, he gave chase
to the boys who ran when they saw

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is Sign You Have Been
Eating Too Much Meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region it
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says well-known au-
thority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they
become sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like You
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels Of
ten get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter 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 clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids in the urine so it no longer ir-
ritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is life Saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes delightful, eff
fervescent lithia-water drink.

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles T. Law have the
sympathy of many friends here in

BAZAAR OPENING
TOMORROW WILL
INTEREST MANY
VACANT STORE WILL BE SCENE
OF FESTIVITY INSTEAD OF
ARMORY AS HERETOFORE

With tomorrow the doors of the
Hospital Bazaar, conducted by the
ladies of the Americas Hospital asso-
citation, will be opened to an interest
ed public, and throughout the week,
will attract hundreds of visitors, as
in other years. The ladies of the Hos
pital association have long been busy
in preparation for their annual fete,
and promise this season an occasion
of more than usual interest and gen.
eral attractiveness.
Instead of the Armory, where the
bazaars are usually held, the vacant
store in the Hotel Windsor block, next
to Tillman & Browns shoe store, will
be used. This change is made neces-
sary from the fact that the Light In
fantry will need the use of the armory
THIS week.
Throughout the week the ladies will
present each afternoon and evening
some delightful form of entertainment
consisting of music, readings, spell
ling bee, baby show and like features.
On each day they will serve superb
dinners, possum suppers, bird suppers,
turkey dinners-in fact, everything
good that appeals to the hunger of ro-
bust manhood. Bazaar dinners and
suppers are in a class wholly unap-
proachable
The festivities will~begin with a
bazaar dinner today and everybody
is invited to come and dine with the
ladies, enjoy a good dinner or supper,
and thus help them in this most
worthy cause.
