on Apparatus

foiiowing the awarding of con-
tract for six pieces of fire apparatus
to the American LaFrance Company
councilman NJ. 4. Obercash to-day re-
signed as member of council, the
resignation to take effect at once.
Rumor had it that A. j. Sellers
chairman of the special committee,
had also resigned. Mr.. Sellers, de-
MED this and said he had no intention
of resigning.
Mr.. Obercash in explaining the mo-
tive for his action said that only one
company was allowed to bid on six
pieces OF apparatus and that he
thought any company should be given
the chance.
Mr. Obercash was a member of the
special committee on purchasing the
apparatus and said he recently saw
demonstration of the LaFrance ap-
paratus in Lebanon and said he saw
apparatus he thought would give bet
ter service.
Several weeks ago committee
from councilmen, and several firemen
went to New York to witness a DEM
onstration of the LaFrance apparatus
and while there were guests of the
company. Mr.. Obercash said he had
an invitation to accompany the party
but as he witnessed a demonstration
of this engine before. did not think
another was nee eCessafy.
On the fire apparatus committee are

claim they cannot make the ship
ments.
Howard C. Fry, of the Fry Coal
Company stated this morning that the
situation was largely due to the fact
that the operators cannot get the
labor to mine the coal, and also the
shortage of cars to ship 1t. Another
reason is that the United States Cow
ernment has made u big demand on
the operators for anthracite coal, for
use in the navy. Bituminus coal was
used to great extent heretofore, but
now both grades are being used. The
large industrial plants in all sections
of the country have also made heavy
demands on the operators and 1 can
not see any relief until after the war
is over. There is a shortage of over

An official of the McCreath Brothers

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts to flush Kidneys if
Rack hurts or Bladder
bothers.

If YOU must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally, says noted
authority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kfdneys in their efforts to eXpel it
from the blood. They become slug
gish and weaken, then you suffer with
a dull misery in the kidney region,
sharp pains in the back or sick head
ache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the wealth
er is bad you have rheumatic twinges.
The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi-
ment, the channels often get sore
and frritated, obliging you to seek re-
lief two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any pharm-
acy here; 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, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutraliZe the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates. thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes n delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink.
