Two illustrated tabloid talks on

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
SAYS BACKACHE IS A SIGN YOU
HAVE BEEN EATING TOO
MUCH MEAT, WHICH FORMS
URIC ACID.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
1T generally means you have been
eating too much meat, says a we'll
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the blood
and they become 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 wealth
er is bad you have rheumatic twinges.
The urine is cloudy, full of sediment,
channels often get sore, water scalds
and you are obliged to seek relief two
or three times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable phys
stefan at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a 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 hthia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimu-
late sluggish kidneys, also to neu-
tralize acids in the urine so 1t no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes a delightful, eff
feRvescent Whitewater drink.-Adv.

FOUR BALLOON|ST
GIVEN 4 DUCkING
WHEN BAG FELL

Four occupants of the free balloon
which left the naval station for an
over-the-harbor flight yesterday aft
ernoon, were given a ducking when
the great apparatus fell into the
water, at a point two miles east of
the city, near Magnolia Bluff. Occu-
pants were Captain R. S. Geiger, of
the marine corps; Ensign Pennoyer,
Lieut.. G. w. Coil and Ensign H. W.
Hoyt. All were rescued without in
jury.
The wind was briskily blowing from
the southwest when the balloon was
freed at the yard. 1t scared over the
bay, attracting the attention of hun
dreds, and among the craft which
was in the bay on duty at the time
was the coast guard cutter Penrose.
The skipper of the latter at once put
on high speed when he saw the bal
loon was coming down, but when he
reached the scene, a launch had been
engaged and the balloon was being
hauled aboard. This launch later de-
livered the balloon and basket to the
Penrose. About this time the sea-
sled from the aeronautical station
came roaring up the bay, and soon
had the two naval men board, bring
ing them to the city. The Penrose,
with the other two officers and the
apparatus, steamed into the slip be-
tween Palafox and Central wharves,
there meeting and delivering to the
sea-sled the balloon, basket and turn
ing over to the fast boat the two
officers.
This was the second time the free
balloon had been taken out for 8
flight over the bay, the first trip end
ing with the balloon landing on the
sands Of Santa Rosa Island.

1t was a clean, fast exhibition of
the national pastime and abounded
with sensational plays. Holcomb,
Jackson. ,Maddis and judo featured
for the 1st-32nd Infantry. while
Moore, Miller, Schlede and Mulhern
furnished the fielding thrills for the

Moore and Mashaw started the

Mashaw retired at the end of the

during the time he occupied the

hits and two runs, while six breezed.

SALUTE Orders
ARE ISSUED TO
NAVAL SERVICE
Mix-up in Insignia Leads to
Awkward Situation During.
Dutch Ships Visit

Liberty in Honolulu is one salute
after another My arm is as tired
as if | had been shoveling COAL de-
clared an enlisted man OF the navy
last Saturday night. He was the
type nowadays known as "a young
gob"-the navy equivalent of the
army word rookie"
1t is such as he who the old two
and three cruise men declare even
salute Salvation Army officers, chief
petty officers, civilians in fraternal
organization uniforms and Tegimental
band leaders.
But there is now a safety first"
reason for the naval recruits and the
old cruise mems attention to the
military detail Of saluting superior
officers. Special orders warning them
to not fail to salute superior officers
of whatever service have just been
issued by Capt. George R. Clark,
commandant of the Pearl Harbor sta
ton.
These orders were perhaps speci-
ally issued as the result of the call
here of the Dutch cruisers. The
petty officers of the Dutch navy
have shoulder insignia similar to that
of the American commissioned Off
GERS, while the ranking officers have
a modest little mark on their collars
Invariably the enlisted men here sa-
luted the Dutch petty officers, with
much mutual embarrassment, while
those deserving the salute got only
casual or curious glances.
When the American soldiers and
sailors learned that the Holland in
sigma was too Dutch" for them, they
avoided confusion by failing to salute
any of the visiting officers. Hence,
maybe the emphasis which is laid
upon the necessity of the navy men
saluting foreign officers in the dis
trict orders of Capt. Clark, which
read as follows:
1.-THE attention of all connected
with the naval station, Hawaii, and
the fourteenth naval district ashore
and afloat, is invited to Article 1173,
page 124, Navy Regulations 1913, rel
ative to salutes. These provisions
are regarded by the commandant as
of great importance, and a strict
compliance Herewith is expected.
This regulation has been incorporat-
ed as paragraph rs in the station
regulations. ~. =.
This salute applies not only to the
naval forces, but also to officers of
the army and foreign military and
naval officers who should be saluted
as very necessary mark of respect"

Engels Copper company Is about &c
cut melon for its stockholders, and
that is the reason for the activity OF
this issue in the local market, where
it is selling at SIS share. says the San
Francisco Examiner of Sept. 2l
Almost Immediately the Engels
Copper company proposes 10 file an
application with Commissioners of Cor
porations II. l.. Carnahan for leave to
issue 167;6S6 additional shares OF its
capital stock.
Subject to his approval, first OBJ
tanned, this stock will be offered to
the present stockholders at $3.50 a
share on the following terms and con.
ditions:
Five per cent OF the holdings of
the individual stockholders. as of
November j.. 1917, in new stock
at $3.50 a share. This subscrip-
ton right viii remain open to
stockholders until. December 81,
1917.
Five per cent of the holdings Of
the Individual stockholders, as of
January II, 1918. in new stock at
gov d SIIdIS. 1 Ills SuUSCi lplIOlI
right Will remain open TO the
stockholders until February IS,
1918.
AS there are outstanding 1856, 964
shares. out of 100000 shares au-
thoriZed, it follows that the fulfill
ment of these two subscription rights
will dispose of 167 SIS shares, leav-
ing 196,35O shares still in the treas
ury for future issue.
1t was learned yesterday from per
sons interested in the management of
the company that the Engels Copper
company is in excellent shape. The
first unit of the new mill, with daily
capacity for treating 80 tons of ore,
will be completed before the end of
the year, and the new tramWay, two
miles of length, will also be finished
before January /, 1918. The com
pany is, building a number of we'll
planned and attractive cottages for it's
married employees, and is also en-.
gagged in some other new construo
ton about the works.
The proceeds of this new issue of
stock will be used for, the following
purposes:
To defray the expenses of the
first unit of the new mill and the
new tramway, and other improve
ments now in progress.
In installing, early in 1918, the
second unit of the new mill, with
a like capacity of $50 tons of
ore a day.
In boring tunnel, known as
Tunnel No. 7. This tunnel will be
more than two miles in length,
and in driving it several extern
sive ore bodies,s which have al
ready been disclosed, will be
~crosscut, thereby furnishing the
mine with total of 100 feet of
backs.
: Int the sinking of three-com-
partment shaft on the Superior
mine-one of the Engels' richest
showings--and the construction
of a hoist at this mine, with a
daily capacity of 1000 tons of ore.
1t is thought that the expenditure
of this money will bring the property
up to a very high grade of efficient
and that it will insure a
higher dividend rate on the stock than
that now being paid.
