DRINK MORE WATER
IF KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat Less Meat and Take Salts for Back
ache or Bladder Trouble
Neutralizes Acids

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys
they become overworked; get sluggish
ache, and feel like humps of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is
irritated, and you may be obliged to seek
relief two or three times during the
night. When the kidneys clog you must
help them flush off the body's urinous
waste or you'll be real sick person
shortly. AT first you feel dull misery
in the kidney region, you suffer from
bacxache, sick headache, dizziness, stom-
ach gets sour, tongue coated, and you
feel rheumatic twinges when the wealth.

Eat less meat, drink lots of water;

ounces of Jad Salts; take tablespoon.
full in 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 elogged
kidneys and stimulate them to normal
activity, also to neutralize the acids in
urine, so it no longer is source of irri-
tation, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
lure; makes a delightful effervescent
litha-water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.-Advt.

Partner in Circus Business.

White Plains, N. Y, Feb. l7.--Mrs
Anne Isabelle Hutchinson Of Bridgeport
Conn, yesterday won her suit to set
aside the will of her sister, the late Mrs.
Ruth Louisa Bailey, widow of James A.
Bailey, long associated with P. T. Bar
mum in the circus business. The win
left Mrs. Hutchinson an income of Sl0,-
600 a year, but by setting it aside she
will receive about 100000. The estate
was valued at about 100000. The
verdict opened yesterday was handed in
sealed last Friday by a jury in the SUI

the ground that the executors exerted
undue influence on Mrs. Bailey and that
she was physically and mentally in
competent to make a will. Mrs. Bailey

Kennedy's Suicide Is Not to

ADOPT RESOLUTIONS
Express Regret at Loss of a
Faithful Public
Official"

New York, Feb. 1.-THE suicide of
State Treasurer John ]. Kennedy in Buff
falo on the eve of his examination in
| the John Doe graft investigation in this
city, will not halt the inquiry into his
Office and affairs. This was indicated
yesterday by members of the Assembly
graft investigating committee, known as
the Sullivan committee. 1t was said
that the committee would probably au-
thorize an immediate investigation, fol-
lowing its meeting in Albany last night
to select counsel for its graft hunt.
Speaker Thaddeus G. G. Sweet of the
Assembly, who conferred with District
Attorney Charles s. Whitman regarding
the graft hunt Sunday night, is one Of
those who urged the Kennedy investiga-
ton.
''He il one of my best friends" he
said, "but since he took his life the day
before he was to be questioned concern
ing the affairs of his Office and his con
nection with the bonding business,
think his friends will demand that an
inquiry be made"

pressing regret at the loss of faith

moneys were deposited. He was TO have
been further questioned as to his rela-

district attorney had been told is in the
business of bonding deposits of state

now said to be conducted by Mr.. Ken

Whitman's information, was established
by Mr.. Kennedy, but it was learned that

.BACKACHE A WARNING
YOU SHOULD HEED
1t Is One of the First Signs of
Kidney Troubles, if Neglect
ed, Serious Diseases
Follow

| No one can be well and healthy unless
the kidneys work properly and keep the
blood pure. When they become clogged
up and inactive, nature has way OF
warning you.
Backache is one of the first symptoms
| You may also be troubled with disagree
able, annoying bladder disorders; have
attacks of lumbago or rheumatism; be-
come nervous, tired, and feel all worn
out; puffy swellings show under the
eyes or in the feet and ankles; and
many other symptoms are noticed. If
they are neglected, dropsy, diabetes, or
Brignt's disease, which so often prove
fatal, may result.
1t is not only dangerous, but needless,
for you to suffer and endure the tor
lures of these troubles, for the new dis
covery, Croxone, quickly and surely ends
all such misery.
There is no more effective remedy
known for the prompt cure of all such
troubles than this new, scientific prepa-
ration, because it removes the cause 1t
soaks right into the kidneys, through
the walls and Innings; cleans out the
clogged-up pores; neutralizes and dis
solves the poisonous uric acid and waste
matter that lodge in the joints and mus
cles and cause those terrible rheumatic
pains, and makes the kidneys filter and
sift the poison out Of the blood and
drive 1t from the system.
You will find Croxone different from
all other remedies. There is nothing
else on earth like IT, II is so prepared
that it is practically impossible to take
it into the human system without re-
suits.
You can secure an original package of
Croxone at trihing cost from any first
class drug store. All druggists are au-
thorized to personally return the pur-
chase price if Croxone should fail in a
single case. Three doses day for a
few days is often all that is ever needed
to cure the worst backache, relieve rheu-
matte pains, or overcome urinary disor-
ders.--Adyt.

WANT PARCEL POST TO STAND.
Senators Who Favored Regulating Rates
Are Hearing from
Home"

Washington, Feb. l7.-Members OF
the Senate who urged the provision in
the post Office appropriation bill taking
from the postmaster general the power
to regulate rates and extend the service
are beginning to hear protests from
back home" The popularity of parcel
post throughout the country is such
that this attack upon the present sys-
tenn is being strenuously resisted.
Should the Senate approve the action
of its committee and pass the bill with
the Hoke Smith Bristow amendment, it
is probable that the House will take ex-
actly an opposite view. Representative
Lewis, author of the original act, feels
that he will have the House with him.

WANTS BIG
CONFLlCT
TO BIZ TIE
BY BURTON K. sTANDIsH.
CWrittel for the United Press.

Washington, Nov. 1S.-When il
comes to real neutrality, Miss Mabel
Boardman, active chief of the Ameri-
can Red Cross, has it with sincerity
that no one could doubt. She doesn't
want any nation OF rope to win
She wants the big WI, 20 be a draw
And this is how she explained her
position. Her work naturally allows
OF no favoritism, of no partiality. 1t
demands the. distribution of mercy
Of supplies, OF medical attention and
of kind words to Russian, German,
French and English alike. Humanity
knows no nationality, as she explained
it to me Now if one side wins, it will
mean that there viii be large indem.
mites for the other side to pay. The
bitterness engendered by this the
greatest war the world has ever
known will remain. The conquered
will still bear malice. He will feel
the sting of defeat the burden Of war,
the blasting effects OF his young men
and his industries for years to come
But on the other hand, Miss Board
man argued, if the war is draw, there
will be less of the lingering animosity
All nations will have had their bitter
lesson; all will have had their re-
venge-if that's what they desire: all
viii be on equal footing. Their big
ornaments will be shattered, and per
haps this will be the basis for world
peace without ornaments.
And Miss Boardman, perhaps more
clearly than anyone with whom have
discussed the problem, has the view
point of all the nations She knows
how Germany felt about Russia, how
France and Belgium felt about Ger
many, how England and Russia re-
garded the conflict. With all she has
sympathy She places no blame; she
draws no comparison, yet in her posi-
ton OF ministering angel to all ma
tons, she seems to have absorbed
their spirit, their viewpoint. and she
seems to knew just how it must feel
to be citizen of any one of the war
ring nations minus their bitterness
or their prejudice.
To wipe out the spirit of interna-
tional prejudice is one Of the aims of
Miss Boardman's Red Cross work
