TEMPLE
The great Houdini, who mocks at
locks, straight Jackets, shackles. tor
ture chambers, etc. is back in the
Temple theater again with new
tricks that are more mystifying than
ever. For nine years Houdini has
been visiting Detroit regularly on the
vaudeville circuit, and each time he
has improved his act by making his
work more difficult II would seem
that he has reached the limit OF hui
man ingenuity in the latest feat he at
tempts-liberating himself from CHI
nese water torture chamber In which
he is locked, head down, his ankles
clamped TO the top of the chamber
The cell, just large enough to accom-
modate him in an upright position Is
filled TO the brim with water. To fur
Their complicate the performance the
heavy wooden and steel cell is bound
with steel straps and securely locked.
IL takes Houdini just one minute TO
make his escape. Houdini also does
the East Indian needle trick. In the
Wednesday matinee he will attempt
10 escape from a box especially pre-
pared by the packers of the ]. l.. Hud-
son Co.
With all due respect TO the great
ness OF Houdini in his chosen line.
there are other acts-on the bill that
are just as good and as entertaining
in their way. Robert l.. Daley, in
Our Bob" a nonsensical skit, keeps
the house in a continual uproar with
his silly talk and clownish antics. He
is assisted by Miss Lester Armstrong
and r. s Robert
The Faber girls, one pretty and the

dances. Leon kimberly and Halsey

MOON WILL KEEP LENT
February Too Short This Year to Get
Entire Influence of Orb.

The month of February this year
will not have the full influence of the
moon. The moon fulls every twenty
nine and one-half days. 1t filled on
the 30th day of January and will fill
again on the first day of March. there
will therefore be no full moon during
the current month. AS February has
but twenty eight days, it is the only
one of the months that is too short for
the lunar orb to put on a full pageant.
Two full moons in the same month
is not an unusual phenomenon. From
what was said above, there must nee
essarily have been two full moons in
January, and there must be two full
moons again in March. The Rev. Faith
er LeSage, astronomer in the Univer-
sity of Dallas, said last night that, ac-
cording to current belief, the moon
fails to fill in February once in about
eight hundred years, but according
to science, this happens ordinarily
once in eighteen years, but occasion
ally once in nine years.

# KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating
acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit 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 re-
mains to irritate and inflame, caus-
ing a burning, scalding sensation,
or setting up an irritation at the
neck of the bladder, obliging you to
seek relief two or three times dur
ing the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most people call
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoy
ing and sometimes very painful, this
is really one of the most simple all
ments to overcome. Get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from your phar-
macist and take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast,
continue this for two or three days.
This will neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer is a source
of irritation to the bladder and urin-
airy organs which then act normally
| again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lithia, and is used by thousands
of folks who are subject to urinary
disorders caused by uric acid irrita-
ton. Jad Salts is splendid for kid
neys and causes no bad effects what
ever.
Here you have pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia- water drink, which quick.
ly relieves bladder trouble.

FALsEHooD, BRITAIN DECLARES
Sir Edward Grey Replies to Recent
Statement from Berlin

Washington, Feb. 23.-Sir Edward
Grey has sent to the state department,
through the British embassy here, a
statement characterizing as false
hood a recent statement from Berlin
attributing to the British the inten-
tion to destroy an American ship in
the naval war zone and charge it to
a German submarine with the expec-
tation of precipitating a crisis between
the United States and Germany.
The Berlin statement received in
the United States by wireless was
bassy.
