the bladder is irritated, and you NAV
be obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the
kidneys clog you must help them
flush off the body's urinouS waste or
you'll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the
kidney region, YOU suffer from back
ache, sick headache. dizziness, stom-
ach gets sour, tongue coated and
YOU feel rheumatic twinges when the
weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water:
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and YOUR
kidneys will then act fine. This fa-
nous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them TO normal ac-
tivity, also to neutralize the acids in
urine, so it no longer is q source of
irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot

eryone should take now and then to
keep the kidneys clean and active.
Druggists hero say they sell lots OF
Jad Salts TO folks who believe in
overcoming kidney trouble while it is
only trouble.

NEW RATES FOR
WATER APPROVED
Generally Recognized That
City Needs Additional
Revenue

City officials to-day commended
the action of members of Council in
approving the water department re-
port by j. w. LedouX, of Philadel-
phia, and in deciding to use the
schedule of rates prepared by this
expert and based entirely on a cost
OF operation plus allowance for q
return on the water department
property and a depreciation charge.
Because of the complete change in
the system of charging rates it will
be necessary to print new blanks to
be used in filling in monthly, quar-
terly and annual statements to pri-
Nate and manufacturing consumers.
\ number of minor points not speci-
tcally mentioned in Mr.. LedouX' S
report are being considered now by
the commissioners in framing the
emergency ordinance to be present.
ed next Tuesday.
The new schedule of rates when
passed by Council will provide a
more efficient method of charging for
water which is used officials said. All
bills will show statements of the last
meter reading, the new meter read
ing and the amount of water used
in cubic feet for which n charge of
AZ cents u thousand cubic feet will
be made, in addition to the meter
service charge.
Commissioner Hassler said to-day
he is planning to make a careful
study of the other recommendations
in Mr.. LedouX's report and will prob
ably take up the suggestions in the
near future with engineers in
charge at the pumping station.

THEIR MARRIED LIFE

Something not too expensive"
said Helen.
Warren frowned and the gray
haired woman raised her eyebrows.
Nevertheless, she seated Helen be-
fore one of the triple mirrors and
proceeded to bring her three hats
from the case. The first was very
trying but very smart toque, which
did not feel at all comfortable on
Helen's head.
That's very good on YOU" the
saleswoman remarked without any
feeling in her voice. Helen shook
her head decidedly. TT doesn't feel
right on my head, and it's really too
extreme. How do you like it, War
rem"
Il like it all right, at least you
won't see another woman in town
with one like it,
NO, indeed" put in the sales
woman, "our models are all person
ally designed in our own workrooms'
Some of these models are imported.
How do you like this? And she
pushed down a little flower turoan
on Helen's head.
Il like that very much, Helen re-
turned. How much is it,
"Forty-five dollars"
"Oh." said Helen. Nothing so eX-
pensive as that. \ hat like this
would only be suitable with certain
gowns anyway"
How is this?" the saleswoman
was beginning when Warren spled a
hat on the other side of the shop.
Let us see that one he inter-
rupted. pointing to it.
Thirty eight dollars" the sales
woman said suavely, looking at the
tiny label. and putting it on Helen S
head as she spoke. The hat was OF
coarse black straw, lined under
meath with dull blue. Around the
crown were bands of stiff aigrettes
that stuck out in all directions. II
was decidedly smart, and Helen fell
in love with it imm ediatly.
How do you like it, dear? she
asked, smiling up at Warren.
well. that's something like It, y
he responded heartily, that's my
idea of a hat"
But, Warren, it's absurd to pay
such a price for hat, really 1t is.
"Not any more than you would
pay for three or four hats before
the season is over. If you can be
satisfied with that hat, We'll have
it. and don't let me hear another
word about hats for some time TO
come"
Helen wanted to eXpostulate and
tell Warren that she would much
prefer two cheaper hats bought al
more moderate place so that she
could have a change occasionally
but she decided that it would be
better to let him have his way. The
hat would really go with everything
and was certainly serviceable enough
to wear every day the rest of the
season if necessary.

BOYS UNDER ARMS
DESERVE BOOKS
State Officials Endorse Move
ment to Aid Yankees
in Camps

While they may differ in some
political ideas, State Senator Will
liam c. Sproul and Highway Com
missioner j. Denny O'Neil are agreed
that the people of Pennsylvania dur
ing the week beginning March IS
can do little that will be more bene-
fetal to the soldiers and sailors of
America than contribute readable
books to the libraries being main
tanned for them.
I'VE are seeing to it that our fight
ing men have tobacco, candy, warm
clothing and other things; now let
us see to il that they have books
to read" said Senator Sproul to-
day. And when we are giving them
books let us give them books that
we like to read ourselves-and then
we will know that their libraries
contain readable books"
AN excellent idea said Com
missioner O'Neil. THE boys in
France and in the training camps
deserve the best we can do for them.
In every home in Pennsylvania there
are excellent volumes which should
get away from their job of collect
ing dust on the family whatnot.
Let's give the boys the best we
have"
Governor Brumbaugh to-day also
unqualifiedly endorsed the move
ment.
During the week of March 1924
Pennsylvania will "frisk" itself of
books for soldiers and sailors. There
is need in the many libraries now
being maintained for two million
volumes. The demand for books, say
the camp librarians, is greater than
any DerSOn anticipated.
Don't imagine" said one librarian
who wrote to DR.. Thomas Lynch
Montgomery, state librarian, that
Pennsylvania is doing its whole duty
by the soldiers when it sends them
cigarets and tobacco, or candy. The
boys would be up against it if all
they had to do in their hours of
ease was smoke cigarets and eat
candy. They want books-books-
and more books"
Throughout the state, librarians
of those cities and towns which sup
port libraries, have been named heads
of the committees which will han
die the book campaign. Executive
committees are being named and
newspaper men have volunteered
their services as publicity agents for
the drive.
In several cities the aid of the Boy
Scouts has been enlisted. In Har-
risburg, where the campaign began
n week earlier than in the rest of
Pennsylvania. the forepart of the
week was given to publicizing the
drive and what it means, and on
Saturday the Boy Scouts, $50 of
them, called at every house in the
entire city. 1t required many hours
of very hard work, but the number
of books secured was astonishing.
In each locality it is urged that

were very happily received by the
ledy-robin who condescended to

me which one to take.
CURLY HEAD BETTY.
Dear Curly Head Betty: l am afraid,
little Curly Head Betty. YOU do not
know what love is. Surely you ought
not to mistake the regard you feel
for these two men as love. Surely, if
your feeling were so deep as to be
termed love. YOU would not be so
perpleXed whether to take the idler,
who is afraid to work, or the young
man who is faithful to himself and
YOU. Maybe if the other, too. wore
Sahki uniform he would be more at
tractive than the present soldier.
Better wait awhile, Curley Head, un-
til you know your own mind. But
don't marry either young man hastily.
If the soldier does not seem to care
for you so much, as you, he surely
will not make you as happy as the
other man will. Wait until you
know your own feeling. and remember
taht 81 years old is very young, in
deed, for the step you are pondering.
