THINKS WORTH KNOWING.
Flats at So Cents a Month.

a municipal tenement house for des-
titute widows with small children has
been opened by the city of Havre. 1t
is the first institution Of the kind in
France, and it has become Immediately
popular. The tenements, managed by
the bureau of charities, occupy three
ancient buildings on the Island of st.
Francois, rented by the city to the
bureau at 20 cents a year. The in
~teriorS have been rearranged in six
teen flats Of three rooms each, with
laundries. The total expenditure was
$4,000. The buildings were bought by
the city for $4,000.
Each widow pays So cents a month
for her three-room fiat, and she keeps
the fiat in order and agrees to remain
only SO long as her circumstances do
not improve. Fifteen widows already
are installed, with a total Of eighty
children, ranging from 4 months to 9
years. The smallest family has four
children says an exchange. There is
a spacious courtyard partly covered,
where the children play.
Each widow, if she requires, receives
free from the bureau Of charity thirty
two three-pound loaVes Of bread and
IL cents worth Of meat a month; and
in winter four and a half pecks Of coal
and four and a half pecks of potatoes
a month. In December seaweed mat

Meat CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS IF YOUR
BACK HURTS OR BLADDER
soTHERS-MEAT FORMS URIC
. ACID.

II you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally. says a noted
authority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to eXpel it
from the blood. They become slug
lgish and weaken, then you suffer with
a dull misery in the kidney region,
sharp pains in the back or sick head
ache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the wealth
er is bad you nave rheumatic twinges.
The urine gets cloudy, full If sedi-
ment, the channels often get sore and
i%rritated, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
TO neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the hody's urinous waste get four
ounces Of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here; take a tablespoonful in a
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, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
n~eutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer initiates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure. and makes a delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink.-Advt.

London's Rent to the kino

8 A Ratchet and billbook, six horse
shoes and sixty-one horseshoe nails
are the rem the city Of London annu-
ally pays to the king Of England for
certain land within the city bounds.
The payment was recently made by
City Solicitor Crawford to the kings
remembrance, Sir John Macdonnel. 1t
was the seven hundredth payment
made to the crown on this leasehold.
Sir John Macdonnel referred to the
o~bscurity of the origin of the cere-
mony. The story in one case has been
that King Henry VIII, while witness
inf a tournament at the knights
Templars' ground on what Is now the
embankment, was SO struck by the
.dexterity of a blacksmith named Wal
ter du Brun, at his craft, that he pre-
scented him with a piece Of land, the
rental of which was the h~orseshoes
and the nails.
Sir John said that the origin of the
ceremony was quite unknown, says
The Boston Transcript. Like some OF
his predecessors, he had made injuries
into the matter, but further than the
well-known stories no light could be
throw non the subject. What was
known was that for at least 700 years,
or for a longer period. some sucf sery-
ice had been performed before the
kings remembrance.

HosD to Make
Better Cough Syrup than
You Can Buy
A Family supply, Saving $2
and Fully Guaranteed.

A full pint Of cough syrup-as much
as you could buy for $2:5oacsn easily
be made at home. You will lind nothing
that takes hold Of the ordinary cough
more quickly. usually conquering it in
side of "a hours. Excellent, too, for
spasmodic Group, whooping cough, bron-
chial asthma and bronchitis.
Mix ne pint of granulated sugar with
"a pint of warm water, and stir for z
minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty
cents WORTHY in a pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup. 1t keeps perfectly.
Take a t~easpoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is just laxative enough to help
relieve a cough. Also stimulates the
appetite, which is usually upset by q
cough. The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inflamed membranes is we'll known.
Pinex is a most valuable concentrated
compound Of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and other natural
healing pine elements. Other prepara-
tions will not work in this combination.
This Pinex and Sugar Syrup remedy
has often been initiated, but the old sue
cessful mixture has never been equaled.
1t is now used in more homes than any
other cough remedy.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction,
Or money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex, or will get it for you. If not,
send to The Pinex Coz TT. Wayne, Ind.
