HEAVY MEAT EATERS
HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have bladder trouble-Take
glass Of Salts

No man or woman who eats meat regll-
larly can make mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, 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 sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended by
a sensation of scalding. stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; 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,
combined 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 weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.

reach of those whirring leaden hornets
AS they swept past the low BUSH
at the entrance of the gulley, the rider;
looked down at the man behind it. He
saw blond florid young fellow, whose
blue eyes and small red-lipped mouth
were ugly with hate. A glimpse, and,
he was past the CUTLER.
The woman, crouched just beyond,(
under the edge of the bank, was blaz-
ing away toward the Indians with an
automatic revolver. An instant later he
pulled up his mare alongside the buck
board and looked up with cool alert
ness at the third member of the party,
under the brink of the bank. The man
ceased firing and twisted his thickset
body half about SO that be could stare
down at the neWcOme- His close
cropped hair was griZzled, his face
leatI,ery and stolid. The cast of his fea-
lures Indicated French-Canadian blood.
The fusillade of the Indians had
ceased the instant their view of the
fugitive was cut Off Yet, after a sim
gle hard look, the man on the bank
turned away to thrust his rifle up over

CHAPTER u.
The Acting Agent.

Within q few minutes the party had
peared the top Of the ridge. The
thoroughbred mare came trotting up
from the hollow on the other side. AT
sight of them her rider brought her to
stand. The older man spurred his
pony up the round Of the summit. "By
Gar, that wasn't no bad play you made,
partner" he called. Taking the butte
gave you the drop on 'em."
The man whose strategy had routed
the Indians did not reply. The girl
looked up at him with confident ex-
pectancy in her sparkling eyes. He did
not move. The expression of his harsh
features was severe, but there was a
flush under the tropical tan on his
cheeks.
She hesitated, her rich color deepens
Ing. Then her pique gave way to a
more generous impulse. She drew the
gauntlet glove from her right hand.
Under his cold gaze her eyes again
hardened with offended pride, and
again they softened and glowed with
frank appreciation.

his mare and rode back past the skit-

small, blue-beaded mOccasins. Having
reloaded her pistol, she raised her
head to look up at the rider. He was
lifting his hand to touch his hat with
perfunctOry courtesy. Then he saw
her face-calm, proud, wildly beauti-.
ful.
He removed his hat, with sudden
change in his manner that brought
CLEAN into the girls blue-black eyes.

The raillery brought a slight flush in
to his sallow cheeks. Yet his gaze did
not finch before her look of disdain.
He asked another question: Have
they taken the agency?"
"No. We saw this bunch up the
bank. Reggie cut loose at them before
Pere could stop him."
"'Pere? Ah-yOur father. The
other man fired at them first, you say?"
Can you blame him? He was along
when the agent was shot down, last
week. You may have heard of the
murder"
"Yes. Still it was wrong for him to

"Oh I'm only a quarterbreed, you

lightness. Besides, Reggie thought
the party was trying to head us off.
Don't worry. Charlie Redbear crawled
UP the road half an hour ago. The
chances are we can hold out until he

tuated the remark.
The rider looked over the coulee
bank across at the jagged crest of the
butte. eff they slip over there" he
said, "thiS position will become unten-
able. The butte is the key to the situ-
atiOn.''
He looked at the girl, between con-
Germ and swiftly growing admiration OF
her remarkable beauty. Her eyes were
like biue-black diamonds. An almost
imperceptible film of old-gold enriched
the cream and rose of her cheeks. Her
jet-black hair was of French fineness.
The curve of her rather large mouth

was perfect.
But the red lips were again parting
in disdainful smile. She replied with
out seeking to conceal her ScOrn: IF
you're afraid they'll take the butte,
you might get away by boiling down
the coulee. Well do what we can to
draw their fire."
"You will?" he said. "Thank you for
your suggestion. I believe I'll follow
it. Kindly step aside"
She stood motionless, her eyes gilt
tering with cold contempt of his cow
ardice. Unchecked by the look, he
leaned forward in the saddle. The
mare leaped away like a startled deer.
Once clear of the gulley she swerved
sharply and raced away down the cou-
lee. The flight was SO unexpected, so
daring and so swift that the fugitive
had been borne good fifty yards down
along the foot Of the near slope before
the Indians opened fire on him.
The girl had crept forward and
crouched in the entrance of the gulley
to peer after him.
'"The coward!" she cried. "The cow
ard 1 hope they get him!'
But before one of the many bullets
could find the leaping, receding mark,
mare and rider shot out of sight behind
a clump of willows. At once the firing
ceased.
The blond young man under the bush
glanced around at the girl and called
jeeringly: Il say, Marie, how's that
gentleman"

The man stared at her in blank
amazement, but suddenly bethought
himself to roll over and send a bullet
pinging up the coulee.
The girl continued to peer down the
river bottom. After several moments
mare and rider dashed into view, rae
ing directly across the coulee. Though
the Indians at once opened fire, the
mare had skinned oyer the level and
up into a gulley in the far bank before
they could get the range.
Hopeful that one or more OF the
enemy might expose themselves during
the excitement, the young man behind
the bush had not looked around. AS
the firing ceased, he called scoffingly:
"How about the strategic retreat? Does
General Fabius make his getaway with

Roth Tinker and Jones Are Under

There is something unusual about
Fielder Jones and Joe Tinker, the
two managers who came into organic

Both are OF the opinion that their
teams, the Browns and Cubs. are 60

accomplish this Both seem TO have
an exaggerated idea OF the strength

Thinkers assertion that he has the
greatest infield in the history OF the
game is laughed at by real baseball
men. who are convinced that two
castoffs like Yerkes and Mike Doolin
cannot possibly be part Of a great
infield.
Jones is fun OF confidence. He said
when he took his team south Febru-
airy rs that If the Browns did not
win the American League pennant
1t wouli be his fault.
