Take a Glass of Salts II Your Back |
Hurts or Bladder Troubles You.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, |
says a well-known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which excites the
kidneys, they become oyer-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, sleep
lessness and urinary disorders come
from slugginh kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
In the kidneys or your back hurts
or If the urine is cloudy, offensive,
fun OF sediment, irregular of pas
sage or attended by sensation of
scalding, stop eating meat and get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy; take tablespoonful
in glass OF water before breakfast
and in few days your kidneys will
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid OF grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with llthia, and has
4 been used for generations to flush
and stimulpte the Kidneys. also to
neutralize the acids in urine so It no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive and can
not injure; makes a delightful effer-
vescent Whitewater drink which ey-

keep the kidneys clean and active
and the blood pure, thereby avoid

case.
~ have gone over the evidence care
fully and can say that there is not the
slightest doubt of Stielow's innocence,
said Mr.. Osborne. Erwin King, who
recently confessed to the crime, is the
murderer of Charles B. Phelps and ms
housekeeper. We have absolute proof
that Stielow did not commit the crime
and that King did. The whole thing
was a frame-up.
Most of the conference in Mr.. Os-
borne's Office was devoted TO the minute
study of the corroboration of Kings
confession.
"Anvbody who went over that cor.
roboration," said Mr.. Osborne, could
not help but believe in the innocence
of the condemned man. Moreover, all
one has TO do is to talk to this dull, al
most stupid farmer, whose vocabulary
is limited to about $50 words. to be

Spies at Empty Hall;
Men Meet in Secret

Union men called mass meeting OF
Brooklyn Rapid Transit employees last
night in Labor Lyceum Hall, 959 Will
loughby Avenue, Brooklyn. The mass
meeting didn't meet. Although about
$50 employees gathered in the street
near the hail. not half a dozen entered
Several inspectors in uniform guarded
the door while the men were around.
This apparent detection brought grins
to the faces of the inspectors and the
union organizers alike. The latter ex-
planned that the mass meeting" was
merely a ruse to draw all the spies OF
the company to one spot. While the
door Of the hall was being watched by
inspectors, they said, and the rumor
circulated that any employe who en-
tered would lose his job in the morn
ing, motormen, conductors and guards
were meeting in a dozen private house,
in various parts of the borough
At these unsupported meetings, it'was
said, new members were added to the

mands were formulated which would be

Arbitration the Issue,
Road Head Tells Tribune
FROM q star Correspondent Of The Tnbunel

Washington. Aug. IA prominent
railroad president prepared the follow
ing statement for The Tribune to-day:
"The issue squarely before the coun-
try as a result Of the threat of train
service brotherhoods to tie up the com
merce of the country If their demands
are not granted, is whether the rights
of the employees and employers are to
be determined by impartial public arbi-
tration.
"The railroads have earnestly urged
these men to join with them in seek
ing a determination OF the justice of
their extraordinary demands through
the orderly process of arbitration.
They are ready and anxious to lay all
matters in controversy before tri-
bunal TO be chosen by the government
or by the President of the United
States.
Arbitration in any form has been
rejected by the representatives of the
train service brotherhoods.
1.-THE theory upon which they have
rejected arbitration is that the demand
for an eight-hour day cannot be arbi-
trated. Even though these employees
were in truth demanding an eight-hour
day. such n demand is one the justice
of which surely should be determined
by a public board.
But they are not asking for an eight
hour day. II is beyond dispute that
:he acceptance of these demands,
whether under threat of a national
strike or by the award of a board Of
arbitration, would have no other
result than a great increase in the
wages Of these employees, already high
ly paid and constituting less than one
fifth of the railroad workers. Abso-
lutely no change would be made in the
hours Of service, and the employees
would resist any effort of the man
ayers to reduce their hours of service.
"The railroads are standing firmly
for the principle of arbitration in in
dustrial disputes. If arbitration is TO
be rejected. what hope can there be
for industrial peace in the future? Ar
bitration-the right to hearing before
an impartial jury was fought for by
the workers as sacred right.
"But now that the workers are more
powerful in collective bargaining than
the employers, these men declare they
have nothing to arbitrate and resort
TO the ssrike as the more powerful
weapon,"
