A patriotic censorship which has
been voluntarily established by sever
al Canadian newspapers has prevent
ed the Colorado board of immigra acn
from securing the publication o. its
advertisement in Canada. according
TO ]. H. Jenkins. commissioner of inn
migration, because the dominion pub
lications refuse to accept advertisius
which is intended to attract Canadi-
ans away from their country. In
numerous instances the immigration
boards checks were returned and
the copy was barred from the
columns of the papers on the pub
fishers own volition.
The board realizes. however. that
there is at present a considerable
movement of farmers from Canada
to the United States due to condi-
tons that have arisen in Canada
since the war began" said Mr.. Jenk-
ins in letter to the Gazette. 1T has

place the advantages of Colorado be-
fore the people of western Canada.

tied advertisements published in a
few Canadisn weeklies and in dailies
of the northern states that have con-
siderable circulation in western Can

made on the Canon City Fire depart

than prevent the flames from COM
municating 10 other parts of the
p.ant. Requisition had been made
upon chemicals to check the progress
of the fire before the arrival OF M.
Johnson and his helper. but without

BAD BREATH

People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards

gripping cathartics are derived from DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets without grip
ing, pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-

and liver complaint with the attendant
bad breath.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are pure

YALE JUNIOR WEEDS
AND QUITS SCHOOL
Hartford Student Takes New
Haven Widow As Bride

New Haven, Nov. 15.-It became
known yesterday that George Stew
art Hopkins of Hartford, student in
the junior class Of Yale college, and
principal of the Hartford public high
school, and Mrs. Theresa Stanford
Tierney, daughter Of Mrs. George
Stanford, of 81 College street, were
married in West Haven Monday morn
ing.
The news of the marriage Of Hop
kins is complete surprise to all but
the most intimate of his friends at
the college. While it has been known
for some time that he was engaged
TO Mrs. Tierney, whose first husband
an autom obile accident in Englewood,
N j., no one thought that he would
be married until he had completed
his college course.
Hopkins did not wait, however, for
the operation Of the rule that says
no undergraduate Of Yale shall marry
and retain his place in college. About
two weeks ago, after he had made
up his mind to be married, Hopkins
appeared at the deans office and
announced that he was going to re-
sign from college. There are no de-
merit marks against his name, and
his action in resigning was entirely
voluntary, it was said last night.
The romance started last summer,
Il ,I~;y
quent visitor at the Stanford home.
The friendship ripened rapidly, SO
that while the news of Hopkins &C
ton in getting married before the
close of his college carer was sur
prise, friends of his were not sur
prised to hear that Mrs. Tierney was
the woman he had married. Hopkins
is about % years old, and has a good
deal of property in his own right, &C
cording to his friends. Just what his
plans are he has not yet decided, but
he has been talking of going to Co.
lumbia and there taking up the
thread of his studies where he
dropped them at Yale.
The couple were married very quiet
1y, slipping away to West Haven,
where they were joined in marriage
by the Rev. Father Curtin pastor of
st. Lawrence church. Only the i'm
mediate relatives of the bride were
present at the ceremony.

FLUSH, KIDNEYS
WITH SALTS IF
BACK is ACHING
Noted authority says we eat toe
much meat, which clogs
Kidneys.
Take glass of Salts when kidneys
hurt or Bladder bOtherS
YOU,

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake py
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a we'll 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 rheuma-
tism, 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 If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular Of passage or at
tended by sensation Of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy; take tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast and in a
| few days your kidneys will act fine.
| This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon juice, COM
| bind with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the
! acids in urine SO it no longer causes
| irritation, thus ending bladder weak
| ness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
| injure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia- water drink which everyone
| should take now and then to keep
| the kidneys clean and active and the
! blood pure, thereby avoiding serious

MUSICIANS TRIALS
REVEALED BY SUIT
He Just Can't Keep Ladies from
Flirting With Him

New York, Nov. 15.-The hidden
burden of an orchestra leaders job
has been revealed at last. Though the
conductor may look carefree and
splendid as he stands gracefully
waving his baton, his life has it's dark
side, according to papers filed in the
supreme court yesterday by Harold
Stern, director of the Park Avenue
hotel orchestra. He is constantly a
I mark for feminine f1irts.
This was Storms answer to the suit
for separation begun by his wife,
Estelle Stern, who accused him OF
captivating to the charms of an
army officers wife. The woman men
toned in Mrs Storms suit is Mrs.
Myrtle Wickham, wife of Captain
Frank D. Wickham, at present at
NOgales, Ariz., where her husband is
brea thing dust with the Twelfth In
fantry. 1t was on a trip alone to the
city, Mrs Stern states, that Mrs.
Wickham stopped at the Park Avenue
hotel and first saw her husband while
he was directing the orchestra.
How Love Grows on One.
Mrs. Wickham's admiration, accord
ing to Mrs. Stern, began with her
husbands violin playing, then took IN
his long black locks, and from there
progressed by easy stages to his whole
personality. His lustrous curls, of the
regulation musical length, are fea-
tured in a letter which Mrs, Stern
said the Captains wife wrote to the
conductor from Monterey, Cal, and
which Mrs Stern submits as proof Of
her husbands power of fascination.
In this letter the writer tells of
giving a dinner to friends at the Del
Monte hotel, which fell short Of per-
lection because the orchestra began
to play. Her thoughts f1oated away to
Stern and the superior way he would
have whooped things up, the letter
goes on, so that even her husband
noticed her preoccupation.
But his Interpretation of it, the mis-
slve states, wasn't romantic at all-he
though she had rheumatism. The
writer acknowledged that was one Of
her ailments, though she didn't see
why she had it, since she was $50 fat
and strong" Her prescription for it
was this: beloved one, If were only
where I could have you hold me in
your arms nothing could hurt me-"
Stern, who is 25 years old, asserts
that he showed the letter to his wife,
just as he did all the sentimental out
pourings he received from other
women which, according to him, con-
stitute the great hardship Of a con-
ductors career. He also denies his
wife's charge that he wrote letters to
Mrs. Pauline Franklin, saying fatty
that she is 60 and white haired and
thus ruling her out.
Stern, who filed a bond yesterday to
pay the $50 weekly a1imony awarded
to his wife, will have his innings in a
suit for divorce he has filed, the
papers of which are sealed.
