KEEPS WATCH OVER SiLvER
Mrs. Carnegie a Jealous Guardian OF
Valuable Tableware of the
Household.

/ met an old friend this week who
had just come down from Skibo castle.
where she had been staying with the
Carnegies, writes a London cores
pondent of the Kansas City Star
They are the kindest people In the
world to visit" she said. There
vas only one thing did not like
there, that was the porridge. 1t seems
to be an affront to the family il you
don't eat your porridge off the lovely
did so want to put n Of these plat
tiers In my pocket" she added. They
were genuine Queen Anne.
THE old silver at the castle is Mrs,
C%arnegie's fetish, She is quite crazy
over 1t. About $50 in the evening she
will slip out of the drawing room and
steal down to the housekeeper's room
to count it before 1t is locked 10 Its
special safe for the night. She Is the
most house proud chatelaine in all the
highlands, and that's saying a lot.
The housekeeper has been with her
for years, yet Mrs. Carnegie is not
content TO let her count these treas
ures. But probably it is just a labor
of love and n JOY to her to handle
the rare old things"
There is no vestige of snobbery
about the Carnegies; they don't pine
a bit for the society of royalty Or ven
titled folk, but they are anxious for
the companionship of brainy individ-
uals. OF late Andrew has taken to be-
ing a raconteur and does it awfully
well. He likes his friends to correct
him if he repeats himself. 1t would be
a blessing il other story tellers did
likewise.
The gardens of Skibo are looking
gorgeous Just now, especially the old
English garden which is a mass Of
flowers, with fruit trees around the
walls, and cabbages to give 1t the
true air of a century ago! The walls,
like those OF all self-respecting Eng
lish gardens, are mellow red brick,
nearly covered with tinted foliage.
Everybody knows there are no rain
bows in the world like those of Scot
land. When one appears In the sky
at Skibo a bell rings and all the house
party fly to the lawn to admire II.

LESS MEAT IF
KIDNEYS HURT
Take glass of salts if you feel Back
achy or Bladder
bGthers.

If 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 paraIy-
the kidneys in their efforts to expell
1t from the blood. They become
sluggish and then weaken, then you
suffer from a dull misery in the kid
ney region, sharp pains In the back
or sick headache, dizziness, your
stomach sours, tongue is coated and
when the weather Is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine gets
cloudy, full of sediment, the channels
often get sore and irritated, 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 body's urinous waste
get four ounces of Jad Salts from
your pharmacy here; take a tea
spoonful in a glas of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This fam
ous salts is made from the acid CT
grapes and uemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
the acids in urine, so it no longer
irritates, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
~injure, and makes a delightful effer.

According TO Statistics.

In London they tell of a man with a
serious disease of the throat, who con
suited a specialist. The surgeon rec
commended the removal of the larynx,
an operation which the patient feared
might prove dangerous.
The surgeon, however. smiled reas'
suringly, and said:
"Oh, no! You are quite sure TO re,
cover"
But" persisted the patient Il III
derstand that this sort OF operation is
very serious indeed"
MY reason" continued the surgeon,
"for saying that you are sure to re.
cover is this; The mortality is nine
teen out of twenty. and I've had nine

Bacteria In Public Baths.

Electrolyzed sea water, poured into
swimming pools In small quantities,
has proved to be an effective steriliser
to be used In the fight against noxious
bacteria. Its sterilizing action is so
great, as experiment has shown, that
thirty gallons will keep the water in
an 85,000-gallon tank clear and free
from bacterial organisms for several
days. And the e~lectroiyzed sea water
costs only about $40 per 1000 gallons.
The need of such a sterilizer is shown
by the fact that in a fresh-water pond
of 100000 gallons. used by $50 bath
ers, the bacteria have been known to
increase from 800 to $4,000 per cubic
centimeter (about lie cubic inch) in
n day.-Popular Mechanics,
