Los Angeles, Cal-Two men were
reported drowned and hundreds of per-
sons were homeless Monday night as
a result of the heavy rainstorm which
has caused almost every river and
stream in southern California to over
flow it's banks and inundate the low
lands adjacent. Several towns in the
San Bernardino valley are partly IN
undated by flood waters, bridges have
been damaged and power plants OF the
electric corporations were forced to
shut down by the worst storm in this
section in several years.
Fred Smith and A. Rlvere, ranch
ers, were reported to have lost their
lives while trying to ford swollen
streams. A tributary OF the Santa Ana
river overflowed it's banks near Red
lands and flooded twenty houses in the
lowlands. More than sixty persons
were rescued from the flooded district
and taken to a refugee camp esta1-
lished at sanitarium nearby. Twelve
houses Ill EAST Ooh A'SA

the flood waters of the Santa Ana
river. The occupants were taken out
by rescue parties The homeless fam
flies were cared for at an orange pack
ing house. Street car and railroad
traffic throughout southern California
was demoralized and numerous acc1-
dents reported Property damage es-
timated at $250000 was caused in the
Midway oil district when southwest
gale that assumed the proportions OF
a tornado swept the section, leveling
400 derricks and wrecking engine
houses, bunk houses and dwellings.
The greatest damage was done in what
is known as the north Midway and Nc
Kittrick fields. No lives were lost and
no one was seriously hurt
The storm extended far into Ari.

The Occidental Gold Mining Com
pany in the Hurricane district has
completed it's second dam and IS
making all possible headway toward
active placer mining in the early
spring.
About two miles northeast from
Superior are the Leucite hills, which
are made up largely of igneous rocks
in the form of volcanic necks, sheets
intruded into the stratified rocks, and
dikes cutting across the sedimentary
strata Associated with these intru-
sive rocks are volcanic cones and
lava flows These rocks have long
been objects of scientific interest be-
cause of their unusual character
Lately they have attracted additional
interest by reason of the potash-rich
mineral, leucite, they contain, which,
may some day be utilized if a process
can be found for extracting the pot
ash cheaply. 1t has been estimated
that the igneous rocks of the Leucite
hills contain more than 197,000,uO0
tons of potash.

A. e. Blakesley, president and man.
ager of the Blue Flag Gold Mining
and Milling Company, with claims in
the richest portions Of the Brecken-

1t is reported from Central City
that on every 1000 shares in the

In the La Plata district, southwest
of Durango, strikes of rich ore are
reported in the Valley View group
which paid two per cent monthly on
$1,OO0,00O in 1911 and up to the time
when litigation set in with the May
Day owners, over some 200 feet Of
ore veins, estimated to contain ST.
100000 in gold and silver. The suit
was compromised in 1914.
Heavy production was made in De-
cember from the properties of the
Vindicator Company, the Vindicator
No. / and shafts, the Golden Cycle
and Christmas mines, when 4G0
broad-gauge cars with total contents
approximating $4,000 tons, were con-
signed to the mill of the Golden Cy-
Gle Mining and Reduction Company
near Colorado Springs for treatment.
At a conservative estimate the gross
bullion value of the ore would approx
innate $4,000, or at the rate Of $4,-
$4,000 per year. Average value per
ton. $1,000.

Glass of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sluices of the system each
morning and wash away the
poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those Of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise;
splitting headache, stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom.
ach, lame back, can, instead, both
look and feel as fresh as daisy always
by washing the poisons and toxins
from the body with phosphated hot
water each morning.
We should drink, before breakfast,
a glass Of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it to flush from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and ten yards of bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
Ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach.
The action Of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast and it
is said to be but a little while until
the roses begin to appear in the
cheeks. A quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate will cost very little at
your druggist or from the store, but
is sufficient to make anyone who Is
bothered with biliousness, constipa-

SALTS If BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS TROUBLE YOU
Eat Less Meat If Your Kidneys Aren't
Acting Right or If Back Hurts or
Bladder Bothers You.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, says well-knoWn
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they be-
come sort Of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's ~urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells:
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels Oft
en- get sore, water scalds and you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water 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, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, effer-
vescent Whitewater drink.-Adv.
