TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH
KIDNEYS If BACK HURTS
Which Clogs the Kidneys and
lrritates the Bladder.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally.
else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region, severe head
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver,
acid stomach, sleeplessness and all
sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here.
take a 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, corr
bined with lithia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. 1t also neu-
tralizes the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes delightful efferyescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious COM
plications.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who be-
lieve in overcoming kidney trouble

FILIPINO UPRISING
N|PPED IN THE BUD
TIMELY WARNING GIVEN OFF.
GERS RESULTS IN ARREST OF
THE RlNoLEADEos.
Forty Men Arrested and One Man
Shot by Policeman, No One Of
Influence Being Concerned
in Outbreak.

Washington.-Details Of native up.
risings in the Philippines, beginning
Christmas eve. were contained in
cablegram received from Governor
General Harrison Sunday at the war
department and made public by AS,
sistant Secretary Breckenridge.
The report minimized the extent of
the trouble, but stated that small
bodies of Filipinos had assembled in
Manila and Navotas Christmas eve,
and at Laguna de Bay Friday night
and attempted to make trouble. AS a
result, forty men were arrested and
one man was shot by a policeman.
Governor General Harrison reported
that the disorders had been sup
pressed; that everything was quiet
and efforts were being made to ar
rest the leaders, the chief Of whom, he
said, was believed to be a man under
sentence of Imprisonment for homi-
eide. He added that nobody of any in.
fiuence or standing was concerned in
the movement; that it was small and
unsuccessful" and was connected with
the campaign of Ricarto, who has
conducted revolutionary propagan-
da from Hong Kong for several years
appealing to the most ignorant
classes of Filipinos."
Administration officials have re
fused to believe that there was any
seriousness in the Philippine troubles
but have watched the situation close
ly, because of its possible bearing or
the Jones bill granting more indie
pendence to the natives, which has
been passed by the house and is now
pending in the senate.
The nationalist newspapers accuse
the other political parties of fomenting
the revolt, and they also hint thai
some Americans were concerned in il
in an effort to quash the Jones bill
which contains provisions for great
er measure of self-government fol
the islands.
The authorities are in full contro
of the situation and the incident i:
considered by them to be closed.

FRENCHMEN DROP
BOMBS ON METZ
COMPARATIVE QUIET IN FLAN.
DERS WITH NO PROGRESS ON
EITHER SIDE.
Germans Announce That They Are
Still Advancing on Russians,
While Russians Claim to Have
Checked Austrians.

Comparative quiet prevails in the
western theater OF war. In Flanders
the cannonading has been intermit-
tent, but in the Argonne region and
Alsace there have been attacks and
counter attacks with no material pro-
gress on either side.
French aviators, in the way of a re-
ply to the dropping Of bombs on
Nancy by the Germans, flew over the
aviation hangers Of Flescar. one of
the railroad stations of Metz, throw
ing down bombs in their fight.
Notwithstanding the fact that re-
cent official statement announced that
the Germans had ceased their at
lacks on the Bzura river in Russian
Poland, latest advices from Berlin in
dictate that they are still advancing in
that region. Petrograd, however, as
serts that along the Bzura and Rawka
rivers the fighting of late has been
confined to artillery fire.
The Austrians in Galicia, the Rus
sian general staff asserts, have been
driven back in the neighborhood OF
Tarnow, where many prisoners were
taken. The Austrians are reported to
have retreated in disorder. Similarly
they are said to have been forced
back from the line running from Zmi
grod to Dukla in the Carpathians, with
enormous losses, including 10000 pros
oners.
The British raid on the German
coast with seaplanes has apparently
netted small results. Four of the
seven seaplanes we're lost and one Of
the British officers is thought to have
| been drowned. The attack, however
brought about unique engagement
| in which submarines, cruisers, sea
! planes, destroyers, aeroplanes anc

Ammunition Used in War.

How much ammunition does a mod
ern army use? We shall not know
until after the war what the German
and the allied forces have been ex-
pending; but we know what the Ger
mans used in 1901. The total for
rifles was 100000 cartridges, for
field artillery 100000 rounds. 1t is
worth noting that battles are much
less >ostly in ammunition than sieges
The siege of Strassburg alone cost
weight for weight, three times the
amount of ammunition used in all the
decisive battles and actions through
out the whole war. OF course these
figures are a mere bagatelle COM
gle, with it's millions of soldiers and
it's quick-fring guns and its week-long
battles.-Manchest Guardian.

HERE IS A GOOD WAY
TO GET RID OF PlMPLES

Battle your face for several minutes
with resinol soap and hot water, then
apply a little resinol ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash off with resinol soap and
more hot water, finishing with dash
of cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice day, and you will
be astonished to find how quickly the
healing, antiseptic resinol medication
soothes and cleanses the pores, re-
moves pimples and blackheads, and
leaves the complexion clear and vel
vety. All druggists sell resinol soap
and resinol ointment.-Adv.

Strange SCORPION Found.

A curious, strange specimen of liz
ard or scorpion was captured by Wal
ter t. Todd, near the trolley station
of the Chambersburg, Greencastle &
Waynesboro Street Railway company
at Highfield, Pa. The reptile, or what
not, was about eight inches in length
and the color of brick dust 1t was
found lying on the ground only few
feet from the station and, on account
OF the rain and cool weather, was un-
able to use it's locomotive powers very
actively and was easily captured.
The reptile had an elongated body
without scales, four short legs and
short tail, and it's body was almost as
tough as rubber. Where it came from
no one seems to know.

of Louvain, quite a pretty old place,
with its magnificent hotel de vile
crowded in by the impressive church
in the center of the town, and its in
Vulnerable other old gray churches
with long sloping roofs-the place a
perfect nest of nuns and friars. The
streets were lined with the high walls
and closed windows of convent after
convent, and huge clusters of monas-
teries were on the hills about the town
many very newly built and modern
and the town was seething with
bllick-robed priests and brown bare

was the great Roman Catholic center,

have their chief establishments. The

destroyed, contained a priceless col

Gutierrez Issues Orders to All Generals
of the Army.

Mexico City.-Provisional President
Gutierrez Saturday issued circular
to all generals of the armies of the
convention ordering them in most ex-
plicit terms to cease all summary exc
cutions for whatsoever offense. A
copy of the circular was sent to Cen
erals Villa and Zapata.
The provisional presidents secre'
tary gave out an interview authorized
by the chief executive, in which he
said that General Villa objected to the
circular as unnecessary because Villa
wished to run down the assassins
and punish them. Two rival conven-
lions are in the field and three rival
armies are struggling for accession to
power.

PRESIDENT Of The
PRO H|BI TIOVlSTS
is UNDER ARREST
w. S. GARFIELD is CHARGED
WITH VIOLATING CITY CODE,
SECTION 142, IN DRIVING CAR
OVER SIDEWALK.

w. S. Garfield, president of the Pro-
hibition League, was placed under ar
rest at o'clock yesterday afternoon
and the case has been docketed for
his appearance at this mornings ses-
sion Of the police court. He is charg-
ed with a violation of section 142 of
the city code, in that he is alleged TO
have driven an automobile over and
across an improved sidewalk. He
was placed under arrest at Seville
square by Officer Swanson, who over
the police telephones, held conversa-
ton with Chief Sanders, with the re-
suit that the offending automobile,
which had been driven into the square,
and which was used by the speakers
yesterday afternoon, was allowed to
remain where it had been stopped IN
the square named, near the centre.
Mr.. Garfeld's arrest was made in
the presence of the large number of
people who had assembled at the
square to listen to the band concert
and also to hear the prohibtionist side
of the issue discussed. The car was
driven by Mr.. Garfield to the east side
of Seville square, and from that point
it was seen that there was no plat
form or elevated place in the square
on which the speakers could stand to
be seen and heard by all the people.
That they might stand in the car sug-
gested itself to Mr.. Garfield, and
without the least intention of violat-
ing the law, he drove his car into the
square, and he had hardly. come to
stop before the policeman was on
hand and escorted Mr.. Garfield to the
police call box, from which con1muni-
cation was established with the police
station.
