Reels With JswsIsd Bearings.

Without a doubt jeweled bearings on
the reel make It run more smoothly

OF a reel, due to the fact that it Is
jeweled, more than overbalances the
added cost over the ordinary kind. As
general thing, the jewels are set In
removable caps at the end of the bear

clean and oiled. OF course the jewel

Right down to cases, as it were, the
jeweled reel is one that acts best in the

EAT LESS, AND TAKE
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Take glass Of Salts before breakfast
If your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and general decline in health.
; When your kidneys feel like Jumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in 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, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer is source of irritation, thus
ending bladder disorders.

NOTED SOPRANO AT SLATER HALL
Mne Povla Frjsch Appears Academy Musical Course Roderick White and Miss Margaret Jameson Delighted Large Audience.

Norwich is again indebted in large degree to the generosity and public spirit of the promoters of the Acade-
 my Music course which makes possi- b1e a concert of such standard as that given Friday evening at Slater hall. The appearance of such artists as Madamme Povla Frjsh. Jean sVerd, Roderick White and Miss Margaret Jamieson, outside the largest musical centres is rare and we are fortunaA indeed to be so favored.
 Mime. Frijsh is possessed of voice of rare timbre and beauty and of wonderful range. It is of essen tialIy dramatic quality. Her Mozart and Handel songs were sung with the smoothness and~rhymn and Schuman's joyous Veil Gluck Eur Reise, SchwaIbe was delightful. Les Cigales was sparkling gem of song with an equally attractive accompaniment. Chevaux de Bois and RIntruse dis played very different qualities Of voice and word The little wordless Pas tora1 by Stravinscky and Grieg's Primrose. were delicately sweet and simple as was the old French folk song sung as an encore. In the bar barrie Hopsak by Moussorgskey she perhaps reached her height, singing it her height. singing it with all the pow CTS and srve it required. A wonder full voice of richness and color not oft en surpassed. Wrn. Jean Verd was a perfect accompanist. His mood and the singers were one and his music was the completmnt to hrs.
 In the Lazzari Sonati in B. major. Roderick White and Miss Margaret Jamieson could hardly have been ex- celled. Mir Whites handling of the bow was masterly. His tone was pure and his playing of rare sim plicity. Miss Janaieson was no less master at her instrument.

The Prayer by Brazzini-White was most rignlneo and melodious and the descriptice La Chase played with dash and yigor- beautifully played and the Introduc- ton Humoresque was maryeious- ly executed. The encore by Kreisier was very delicate, fine rendering of intrvals. Miss Jamieson accompanied Mir White in this group also-
 In passing a word should be said of the form of programme used ar tn1s concert. It is especially to be com mended, giving as it does the words 10 each song for it is often very diff hcult to hear every word sung De the enunciation clear as it may be and of course in any langue other than our own the difficulty is increas- -ed- The enjoyment of an audience Is greatly increased by means of such a programme for certainly song means both words and music.
