A call will be issued from the Head quarters of the National Woman's party On the day that it is announced that the Senate will vote on the Susan B. Anthony amendment on a given date. The call will be addressed to all the leaders of the State Branches of the National Woman's party, and will be for conference to be held in Washington to discuss the plans for ratification of the amendment. The passage of the amendment by the Senate, by the necessary two-thirds majority is now stated to be secure. Senator Jones, the chairman of the Senate Woman Suffrage Committee, has stated that he is only delaying the measure in order to round up a few more votes for good measure. Rumor in Washington says that the real rea- son for delay is the unwillingness of the Democrats to allow the Republi- cans, in the coming Congressional elections, to claim the credit for the passage of the amendment, and the consequent desire of the Democratic leaders to obtain a Democratic ma jority for the measure in the Senate equal to the Republican majority in the House.

EAT LESS MEAT

Backache.
Meat forms Uric Acid, which
excites Kidneys and
Weakens Bladder

produces kidney trouble in some
form or other. says a well-known
authority, because the uric acid in

come overworked; get sluggish; clog
up and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in
the kidney region; rheumatic
twinges. severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary
irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a 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
10 flush clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them to normal activity; also to
neutralize the acids in the urine so
it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which millions of
men and women take now and then

gans clean, thus avoiding serious
kidney disease.

LAND TAKEN TO
RECLAIM COAL
Big Corporation Records Deed
of Trust For Twenty-Five
Parcels Along Streams

Sunbury, Pa, Jan. S1.-Record of
a deed of trust for % parcels of land
bordering on and in some cases
reaching to the center of Shamokin
and Mahanoy creek. in Northumber-
land and Schuylkill counties, made
here this week, show what is appar-
emily a plan to reclaim and sell coal
that has been turned into these
streams from the Shamokin mines,
on a large scale. The deed shows
that the property was secured by
purchase or option at a total cost of
$S1, ,0s0.77 by a corporation known
as the Eastern Coal Company. 1t is
made in favor of Edwin S. Meade,
of Doylestown; Charles ]. Farrell, of
Mt. Vernon, n. Y, and Donald c.
Muhlman, of East Orange, N. J., and
the Central Trust Company, of New
York City, is the grantor.
The trustees are required to guar
antee the interest on the princip ii
amount of SS1, ,0S7.77, and are to
manage and operate the property as
they see fit. For this they are to have
a $4,000 yearly salary.
They will also, the deed says, be
allowed to issue S1,000,000 in par
ticipation certificates, which are to
be turned over to Frank b. Schmidt,
whose residence is not given, in eX-
change for 100000 and the seventy
five shares of the capital stock of
the Eastern Coal Company.
Since coal has gone to its present
sky-high prices, and because of its
scarcity, great quantities of this coal
is being taken from creeks and is
lands adjoining. where it has been
washed by twenty years of spring
freshets. huge quantities of this coal
have been mined and shipped. Much
of it is nothing but the finest dirt,
but is is sold at good profit In Phil
adelphia and vicinity.
In Sunbury alone, r. i. Beck, a
coal dealer, has 100 men taking out
this coal from a bed of it on the
property of William Reffeor, adioin-
ing Shamokin creek. Reffeor gets Il
royalty of five cents a ton, and 1t is
said to sell at $2.75 a ton on board
cars here.
