CITY COUNCIL
IN REGULAR
WKLY. SESSION
ROUTINE BUSINESS TRANSACTED
AND SPECIAL ELECTION Or
DERED TO RATlFY ELECTRIC
LIGHTING CONTRACT.

At the regular meeting of the
board of cNy commissioners last
night. the board ordered the mayor
to call a special election at once
for the purpose of ratifying con-
tract between the city and the cleo
trio light company for lighting the
city for the next five years.
The reason that the electric light
COMPANY desires a fiveyear contract
is because they are installing a new
lighting system which will give the
city approximately twice the amount
of light it is receiving now at the
same money and under the terms OF
the charter the city cannot enter
into a contract for longer than one
year without the consent Of the peo-
pie. The charter says:
"The city shall never grant, extend,
or renew a franchise, without the ap-
proval of a majority of the qualified
electors residing within its corporate
limits, who shall vote thereon at a
general or special election, and the
board of commissioners may submit
any such matter for approval or dis
| approval to such electors at any gen
eral municipal election, or call a
special election, for such purpose at
anv time upon thirty days notice;
and no franchise shall be granted
extended or renewed for longer
term than twenty-five years"
Mr.. Foster of the electric light
company maintains that inasmuch as
he proposes to furnish the city with
an improved system of lighting at
no additional cost he is entitled tC
contract for a term of years tc
compensate him for the money that il
will require to install me system.
The mayor is compelled to give
thirty days notice of this election
and he will probably issue the cal
at once,
The regular reports of heads OF
departments were read, filed and the
bills against the city audited and al
lowed.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says well-known authority.
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; re-
moving 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 often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
cian at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
q tablespoonful in a glass OF water
before breakfast for 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
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine 50 it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for reh liar
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, effer.
