PARIS, Nov. 13.-Parisians are be-

Bomb throwing aeroplanes have been

IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys AMI
Neutralize Irritating Acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
inf1ame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer Isl n
constant dread, the water passes some
times with scalding sensation and is
very profuse; again there is difficulty
in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks CAL
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast, continue this for
two or three days. This will neu.
tralize the acide in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs, which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
ard lemon juice combined with lithia
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject TO urinary disorders caus-
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble. Hooks Phar-

POLICE PUzzLED---CAN
SIX HENS LAY SEVEN
EGGS IN ONE NIGHT?

From the Louisville Herald.
Can six hens lay seven eggs in
a night is the question puzzling
the police of the Seventh District
Station, as the result of dis
covery early this morning.
A negro was arrested on sus-
picion of stealing chickens. Half
a dozen hens were held as evil
dence against him.
The chickens were placed in
the station house, where they
could not get away. This morn
ing one of the officers went
back to water them. He discov-
cred an egg under one, which
was still on a pile of hay. He
looked further and found enough
to make light breakfast for the
blue-coats before they went off
duty.
1t was not until they were eat
ing that it was discovered there
were seven eggs on the table,
TOUR sunny side up" and three
"over." Then followed a long
discussion as to whence came
the seventh. Some of the officers
claimed that even the champion
hen of the world never laid
over an egg a day. Others held
that no extra hen had strayed
into the station during the night.
The controversy was not settled
when they boarded their cars to
go home.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 13.-Jennie
E. Mclaughlin, the sixteen-year-old
girl who was shot by her former

day in the Methodist Hospital The
end came in one of the most dramatic
scenes that the nurses and physicians
at the hospital have ever witnessed.
Told She Could Not Live.
Just before II o'clock this morning
a doctor told the patient that she could
not live. Her mother, who had been
at the bedside almost constantly since
the shooting, began to weep, but the
young girl smiled and told her mother
not to be unhappy.

said, smiling, and 1 wish you were
coming with me. l am not unhappy
and l have nothing to tell. The only
thing that l want to do before go is to
sing my favorite hymn"
"Nearer, My God, to Thee.
She then lay back on the pillow and
started to sing Nearer, My God, to
Three" The doctors and nurses and
other patients in the ward were silent
as the girl sang the first two stanzas.
In the middle of the third her voice
became weak and then stopped. A few
minutes later she was dead.
One of those who heard the death
song was James Fraley. 20 years old
the youth who fired the fatal shot and
then sent bullet into his own stom-
ach. He was lying in critical condi-
ton in another ward.

The senator, on his way home from
congress, ordered a whole chicken,
Southern style, with cream gravy and
all the fixin's. He wanted it served
with hot biscuits and buttermilk, and
he wanted it to be plenty big for
mans size dish.
The waiter came staggering in I'M
der a big platter which smelled like
Thanksgiving day. Senator Smith took
a look at it and called the waiter back.
where's the rest of that chicken?"
he asked.
'Why, boss; that's all of it," re-
turned the waiter.
"Well, where 1 was raised chickens
had two wings" said the Georgia man.
You go back and bring that other
wing"
And that's where one waiter failed
to beat a passenger.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. H.
While lilacs, snowballs and certain
other shrubs should be let alone dur
ing the winter being neither trimmed
nor covered with straw and manure,
other bushes need special attention.
Hydrangeas.
Hydrangeas (semi-herbaceous) in
the South will last out the winter,
if properly cared for out-of-doors.
The tops should be protected with
straw of brush. This may be held
in place about the bushes with a
little manure or stones. The flower
buds of the hydrangea form in the
fall, and this cover will keep them
from winter-killing while shielding
the bush from winds and sun. In
the North hydrangeas must be taken
up, planted in tubs and placed In
the cellar. This is generally true
of Iatitures north of Philadelphia.
Brugmansia.
The shrub known as Brugmansia
should be treated as is the hydran-
gea. The brugmansia (known bo-
tanically as Datura) is also called
thorn apple. 1t is a cultivated form
of Jimson weed and has long bell
shaped white flowers and rather
coarse foliage.
AS rule shrubs should not be
trimmed in the fall. This process is
timely Immediately after the bloom
ing period, if this is in the spring,
as in the case of the SNOWFALL. If
the shrubs bloom in the fall as do
some hydrangeas, the rose of Sharon,
and some lilacs, they should not be
cut directly after blooming, but in
the spring of the following year.
The mock orange, which is also
known as "syringa," needs no special
treatment to help it winter the severe
weather. The name "syringa," al
though popularity applied to the mock
orange, is really more appropriate for
the lilac, which is known botanically
by the designation, while the mock
orange is botanically "Philadelphus. .
Roses.
Almost all kinds of roses are hardy
in the vicinity of Washington and st.
Louis, and to the south of line
drawn between these points. From
w eiSIl1SCOl AOl III w dIu lOtdl
tions influence the successful cultiva-
ton of certain varieties. Some roses
as the brier and rugosa, need no pro-
lection, but other varieties, such as
the neutrality-suspicious., tea and hybrid
teas, need special care, particularly
north of the fortieth parallel. Teas
and hybrid-teas hardly succeed in
Chicago, although the hybrid-perpet-
uals grow as far north as Canada. All
these classes do well on Long Island
and in Boston near the sea when prop
er care is given them. These varieties
in the vicinity of Washington need
merely a little manure on the ground

Aiding Shrubs and Roses
To Withstand Cold Weather

to prevent alternate freezing and thaw-
ing. Farther north, however, they
should be terated as follows:
Cut the tops to within 80 inches of
the ground. Cover the roots with
coarse manure or leaves or similar lit
ter. Hold this in place by brush, which
also acts as a protection. Evergreen
boughs may be substituted for the
coarser litter. except in the most
northern regions.
1t is best to draw mounds of earth
about six or eight inches in height
about the base of the rose bushes to
keep them from mice. In some local
tiles the loose brush around the roots
will make their winter quarters there
anu uCotlOy the IOo6 uuSuHS. AS al
added protection against mice, permit
the ground to freeze slightly before
winter protection is supplied. In fact,
roses should not be protected until af-
ter the first light freeze, which may
be expected in Washington about the
first of December, but earlier farther
north.
Climbing Roses.
In the latitude of Philadelphia and
farther south climbing roses usually
need no protection during the winter
unless they are particularly tender
variety. Farther north these roses
need protection similar to that given
to the tea and hybrid-tea roses.
Climbing roses may be best cared
for by being removed from their sup
ports. The branches should then be
covered over with a little dirt and
treated as hybrid-perpetual roses
would be treated A little fall trim
ming might be desirable to lessen the
space occupied by the branches on the
ground. Such side branches as are not
to be needed for the next seasons
blooming may be cut off. Such cutting
off and shortening of the ends as
would otherwise be done in the spring,
may be done in the fall before cover
ing, merely for convenience.
The above mentioned is much more
satisfactory than attempting to put
straw about the roses as they remain
on the posts or trellises.
