 The moment your back hurts or kid neys aren't acting right. or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy: take 9 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 genera tiops to flush cloSged kidneys and stinl- ulate them to normal activity: also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending blad- der disorders.

 As the Miner boy and the Beckwith boy came along about 45 minutes later, Spencer sent them after Constable M. J. Hickey, but Hickey was not home and he then sent the boys after his own son and his gun and flaslllight.
 His son came back with the gun, which was a five shot revolver loaded with blanks and had been so loaded, the grand juror said. since the day he was initiated in the Woodmen about two .-ears ago.
 GaliEo was in sight then, and Spen- cer called out to him that he wanted him, but Galipo went around to the back of the barn and in following af- ter him, the grand juror stuboed his toe on a sink pipe drain falling with the revolver in his hand, and pulling the trigger so that the gun went off. GaHpo disappeared around corner Of the barn and was not seen again by-
 the grand juror until after he was arrested on Nov. 5th.
 The revolver was put in as an eN- hibit and an A-ray photograph of MT. Spencers broken hand was marked as an exhibit for Identification.

 of the door as he came there. The witness said he could not tell whether
 Galipo was barefooted and ioarehead- ed. He denied that he fired the gun when GaliFo came out Of the Dono- van house and told Spencer to get out of his house and go home as he want ed to go to bed.
 Attorney Burke questioned the wit ness about a visit to the La Bounty house to Mrs. Judd's earlier in the evening before he went to Galipo's and the witness denied that he was so i1i- toxicated that he had difficulty in set ting to the La Bounty house or that he fell into Mrs. Judd's house.
