NEW YORK, october 6.-Offensive
and defensively there appears to be
little advantage for either the Boston
Americans or the Philadelphia Ma
tionals. in the catching department, in
the coming Worlds Series. Both the
Red Sox and the Phillies have trio Of
backstops who are far above the o.
binary in ability in this particular fea-
ture of the game. The American league
champions in Manager Carrigan, CadY
and Thomas have three experienced
catchers who are thoroughly at home
behind the plate and familiar WITH
every detail of the poscition Killlter
is the veteran of the Phillics catching
force but Burns has shown, during tie
mats season. that he is not far behind
his chief in all-round ability while
Adams the third string catcher is
youngster who in his few try-outs has
given promise of measuring up to the
standards set by his two superiors in
the near future.
While experience counts for much
in the work behind the plate, it is not
always the veterans who shine in the
big baseball series. If this was the
case the Americans would have wide
margin of reserve serength since Car
rigan and Cady both figured promin-
ently in the famous eight-game strus-
gle between the Giants and the Red
Sox in 1912, whereas none Of the Phil
lies catchers has figured in fight Tor
the premier pennant of the d1amo2d
game. Thus it can be seen that so far
as experience is concerned the Red
Sox have Carrigan and Cady to the
Phillies, Killifer, Burns and Thomas,
are about equal in this respect While
Moran's third eligible is an unkno"
quantity.

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a GLASS of Salts to Flush Kidneys
ii Bladder BOthers YOu.-Drink
Lots of Water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a we'll known authority
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly back
ache and misery in the kidney region:
rheumatic twinges, severe headaches.
acid stomach, constipation, torpid liv-
er, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary
irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kiC-
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter 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 genera
tions to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to normal activity; al
so to neutralize the acids in the urine
SO it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;

women take now and then to keep the

SELECTS TRADE COMMISSION
Three Democrats and Two Progress
sives Are Named-Hitch in Con.
gress May Stop Action.

Washington.-President Wilson, five
months after the enactment Of the
federal trade commission law, sent to
the Senate for confirmation the names
OF the five members to constitute that
commission. Whether the nomina-
tions can be affirmed by March 4 was
regarded as problematical among sen.
ators In view Of opposition by individ-
ual senators to some Of the men NOM
mated.
The three Democrats named by the
president are Joseph E. Davies, Mad
ison, Wis, named to serve seven years;
Edward N. Hurley, Chicago, for six
years, and William ]. Harris, Cedar
town, Ca, for five years. The other
nominees are Will H. Parry, Seattle,
Wash, progressive republican,
named for four years, and George Rub
lee, Cornish, N. H., regarded as a pro-
gressive, for three years.
Consideration of the nominations
will first be given by the Senate COM
mittee on interstate commerce. Chair
man Newlands said he would call his
committee to consider the list. He
thought the committee would be able
to recommend confirmation of all Of
the nominees within a few days.
Democratic and republican senators
both declared there would be no hasty
consideration of qualifications of the
men named, particularly in view Of the
great powers conferred through pro-
visions of the new law and also the
length Of time which the president
took before making up his mind as to
the personnel of the commission. Pro-
gressive republican senators have in
formally discussed several of the ap-
pointees from time to time as their
names have been unofficially men
toned. Democratic senators, among
them members of the interstate com.
merce committee, already have given
the matter much thought.
