The ever-increasing number Of electric

the popularity of the electrics in WASH
ington.
The women appreciate the cleanliness.
quiet, safety and mechanical simplicity
of the electric, which they may drive
without the need OF a chauffeur. and this
is why the electric is essentially a
woman's car. Every day our broad
avenues are dotted with the graceful
electrics being guided through busy
thoroughfares with a perfect ease Of
control by the women. With an electric,
the women folk only have to get into
the car and, with the touch of a but
ton or movement of lever. are of on
their way TO the shopping center or to
the theater in a luxuriously appointed
car. Thus. they are always assured of
the maximum Of pleasure from their
journey.

One OF the handicaps said to have him

pOcketbook of the average buyer. then
the transportation world will be theirs
Surely these men are laying secure foun-
dations on which to build their super
structure OF progress.
One of the most remarkable achieve
ments. so far in the development OF the
electric. is the MiIburn Light Electric.
manufactured by the Milburn Wagon
Company. of Toledo. Ohio. Their chief
engineer spent many months in Europe
studying and investigating the most ad-
vanced ideas and methods of the foreign
manufacturers. And the best of what he
learned abroad and the best Of American
practice is incorporated in the Milburn
Electric. The result is that they have put
out an Electric that weighs nearly a ton
iess than the large electrics. And be-
cause of its lightness. It costs half. or
less than half./to operate and maintain.
For its degree OF beauty. efficiency. dura-
bility. utility and economy. the Milburn
Light Electric stands out pre-eminently
above other electrics. Due to the light
ness of the car. they achieve the same re-
suits with a twenty-cell equipment, that
require a forty-cell in the larger and
heavier cars. and the life OF the battery
is as long as with the larger equipment
Then. manifestly. when renewal Is neces-
sary, the cost is naturally small. In a
word. the Milburn Light Electric Is all
that could be desired in an electric auto.

MEAT CLOGS KIDNEYS

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the kidneys,
they become overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter
the waste and poisons from the blood,
then we get sick. Nearly all rheu-
matism, headaches, liver trouble, ner-
vousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or IL
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full OF
sediment, irregular of passage or at

eating meat and get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take

before breakfast and In few days
your kidneys will act fine. This IA

grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate the

started to carry 1t out.

Rusty, now recovered, was barking
and shifting at the armor.

man.
The other did so, and Rusty snarled
