Solving Difficulty.

The difficulty, say the experts, is to
be solved only In two ways--more fire.
quent changing of the oil in the crank
case and greater care in the purchase
and use Of low grade or "stale" gaso-
line. .
ut Is not uncommon" says the edi-
tor of Motor Age, 'for car to start
on tour with the gasoline tank filled
with good grade of gasoline and run
beautifully for the first two days, per-
haps, or until n fresh supply of gaso-
line Is taken on at some small out-of-
town garage or country store. Then,
before long, noticeable loss Of power
manifests itself in the engine.
"rhere is nothing more distressing
than the gloom Of impending engine
trouble. SO, think Of the gasoline first
and you may find the source of that
power loss. The trouble caused by
poor gasoline Is an Elusive one and
generally gives the inexperienced OPP
orator no end of perpleXlty in laying
his hands on the difficulty.
Facilitate Starting.
SIN trouble of this kind, to facilitate
starting, one should drain half to
cupful of gasoline from this Aese cllaul-,
Der OF the carburetor This will re-
move water and dirt if it is that which
Is giving trouble.
'rhe operation should be followed
by printing the cylinders with gasoline
and then holding a cloth saturated
with gasoline over the air intake of
the carburetor while the starter is op-
Grated. If the engine runs With power
on the printing mixture and then dies
down TO less power when the tank gas
oline is being used, it is we'll to as
sumo that the trouble is within the
gasoline itself, and the remedy is TO re-
place the gasoline Immediately. If this
is not possible, change the carburetor
mixture for more gas until a new sup
ply is available"

Chamber of Commerce.

Theer was held at the town
hall yesterday evening a short
meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the Chamber of Com
merce, the session being made
short to admit of the members
going to the lecture by Miss
Hamilton.
There was very good atten-
dance of the members of the
board. President Bracey Curtis
presided.
After reading and approval OF
the minutes of the last meeting
the esecretary read a correspon-
dence with the Southern Pacific
regarding the matter OF the sta
ton at Amadoville.- Last year
there had been an effort to
move the station over into Pima
county. The Chamber of Com
merce opposed the proposition
before a hearing by the Corpor-
alton Commission. The latter
took no action the railway COM
pany having agreed to make
certain improvements at the sta
ton and stockyards if the coun-
ty of Santa Cruz improved the
road and put a concrete crossing
on the river bed.
The gist of the communica-
ton of the S. P. was that as the
county had done nothing as yet
in carrying out it's undertaking
that the chamber eask the Cor
poration Commission to grant ar
extension of time for doing the
part the railway company was
to do.
The secretary read a draft OF
a letter he ha dmade to forward
to the corporation commission
suggesting that the request oi
the railway be granted. The

PICTURES THE SHOT
THAT CAUSED THE WAR

tion Vividly Reproduced in
G0ldwyn-CObb Film.

The shot that rang around the
world-the murder of the Arch
duke of Austria-never was
more vividly reproduced than in
"Fields of Honor" the Gold
wynn perturbation of Irwin S.
Cobb's stirring story, starring
wistful Mae Marsh.
For realism and fidelity to de-
tail, the scene portrayng the as
sassination of Francis Ferdinand
at Sarajevo, Bosnia, has never
seer approached. So realistic
is the screen version OF the
tragedy that one is forced 70
doubt whether it could be more
so had photographer clicked
the actual kililng-the event
that transformed a peaceful
world into bloody battle
ground.
The archduke is seen chatting
and laughing in his automobile
with his aides, seemingly al
peace with all the world. A Sec
ond later bedlam reigns as the
heir to the throne of the dual
monarchy is seen to collapse
when the smoke of the fatal shot
dies away. Hundreds of Bor-
mans are depicted flocklng
around the vehicle,t the majority
of them undecided whether to
aid the stricken archduke or
ioin in the mad dash to appre-
hend his assassin.
Throughout the vivid, historic
scene is shown the face OF the
archduke, who, though breath
ing his last, appears to be ex-
horting his subjects to prevent
the spread of chaos which fol
lowed the shooting. His efforts
only lead to an even wilder
scramble in the mob's renewed
attempt to- get at the slayer
How the assassin finally tears
himself loose from the enraget
horde is anothe rsplendid fea
ture of the striking vizualiza
ton.

seen lifting their hands ant
bowling their heads in prayer a

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH KIDNEYS
IF BACK 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
kidneys in their efforts to expel it from
the blood. They become sluggish and
weaken. then you suffer with dull
misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours. tongue
is coated and when the weather Is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy. full Of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two 70 three
times during the night
To neutralfze these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush of the
body's urinous waste get four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
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, COM
bined 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. can not in
