A "FIyinov Malady.

The doctors are puzzled concerning
a strange malady that has broken out
at more than one aeroplane works, and
has i'll one case ended fatally. The
malady in some respects resembles
yellow jaundice, and it is, rightly or
wrongly, attributed to contact with an
aeroplane dope" or to inhaling its
odor.
Further particulars need not at the
moment be indicated, but it has been
suggested that the source of the trou-
BILE may be amyl acetate, which is
used as dope" solvent. Some mys-
terry attaches to the affair, the precise
nature of the malady not having yet
been determined, in spite of close ex-
animation and analysis; and, of course,
until success is attained in this direc-
ton no satisfactory precautions or
remedy can be devised

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
tralize Irritating Acids-Spiendid
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass It on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
lnfame, causing burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obligih,
you to seek relief two or three times
during 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 folks cali
it, becausef they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is source of irritation to the.
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless.
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.

CHAPTER II.
A Man With a Past.

The oriental night air was stirless
1t was without refreshment; it became
a labor and not an exhilaration to
breathe it. A pail of suffocating dust

strong, irregular current, strained at
its cables, now at the bow, now at the
stern, not dissimilar to the last rock
ing of deserted swing This sensa-
ton was quite perceptible to the girl
who leaned over the bow rail, her
handkerchief pressed to her nose, and
gazed interestedly at the steep bank,
up and down which the sweating COO

dozen torches we're stuck into the

she saw the flames as one sees a
burning match cupped in smokers

Advantage of SiIencer.

This crash of the bullet makes the
value of the Maxim silencer very little,
SO far as military efficiency is con
cerned, in the way that the fiction
writer imagines the silencer to be use
full. but not to prevent the enemy from
discovering the position of the men
firing as many fancy.
It's value lies in the fact that it
eliminates fully half of the recoil of
the rife from the action of the gases
in its chambers, and it gives the Off
GERS much better control over the fire,
because of the lessened noise of the
rifles. 1t cuts down the roar of the
Springfield to about the noise of the
1920 and thus the roar of the rifles
at the firing line is much reduced, and
the commands of the officers can be
heard-Quting

Many people want to know what

of steel, the latest made being Fl
inches in diameter and 10 feet long.
1t is sent on its way by compressed
.ir, it is propelled by an engine of its
own which starts when the torpedo
shot on its way. 1t is held steadily
on its course by gyroscope, it has a
speed of As knots an hour for two
thousand yards after which it slows
Town to as low as Is knots. 1t is di-
vided into three or four compart-
ments. The devil of it is like that
of any other assassin-all in its head
which carries from 200 to 800
pounds of gun cotton; it is fred by
an explosive in its nose, when the
nose strikes any substance. The
second compartment is an air cham
Der, which will bear pressure of
rom 1850 to $3.50 pounds per
square inch. The third compartment
is the balance chamber where the
gyroscope is on duty. 1t is set on
is course any where from near the
surface to as low as IA feet below
the water. Its range is over II 900
yards. 1t costs from $4,000 to over
