Travellers Will
PLAY SENATORS
HERE TOMORROW

Bob Aliens Little Rock Travellers
will come to Pine Bluff tomorrow for
u game here with the Columbus Sena-
tors, and already it looks like Arkan-
sas' representatives in the Southern
association are slated to get quite a
severe drubbing.
The Tinker men are going great
guns-the pitchers are ready right
now for the sound of the starting
gong in the American association
race, while the other men of the squad
of their seasons real labors. Lefty"
Georges exhibition yesterday, which
might be taken as an illustration of
the form of all the Senator Hurlers,
was such as to make the old fans in
the grandstand sit up and take notice.
Lefty" had everything, and he put it
all on the ball. Grover Loudermilk
performed the same stunt, while
Ehrhardt took his own good time and
made the Browns eat out of his hand.
as the saying is. And the whole thing,
simmered down, resulted in one lonely
bingle for the Browns in their full
nine periods.
The Travellers are not be considered
too lightly, however. Bob Allen has
gathered husky bunch of ball play
ers, and his team is considered even
stronger than was the aggregation
last season. And although the
Travellers did not capture the 1916
pennant, they made mighty tight
race Of it, once they got started. And
also, it might be mentioned, two Of
the members of the Travellers 1916
squad are now with the st. Louis
Browns, these being Bill Rumler,
whose double was primarily the cause
of the Senator's defeat of Tuesday, and
"Baby Doll' Jacobson, mighty wielder
of the bludgeon.
Tomorrow's contest will begin at
2:3O o'clock, that the Travellers might
return home early in the afternoon.
Because all the city schools will be
closed Friday, it is expected there will
be particularly large delegation of
schoolboys and schoolgirls to witness
the contest and cheer for Pine Bluffs
Senators. 1t is already announced
that there will be big bunch of Lit
tie Rock fans come to Pine Bluff to-
morrow to witness the game These
fans, and the Travellers themselves,
may make the trip by automobile, II
the weather continues favorable.

Kidneys, Then the Back
Hurts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys
like the. bowels, get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally
else we have backache and dull mis-
cry in the kidney region, severe head
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liv-
er, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all
sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here
take tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter 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 lithia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. It also neu-
tralizes the acids in the urine so it no
longer initiates, thus ending bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive:
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious COM
plications.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.-Adv.
