ASTARTLING FAMILY RECORD.

In picking up an exchange we came across remarkable story from Elkhart, Ind. The fact, summarized, as reported in the dispatch were as follows:
 Fred Heminger, IT years old, of that city, was sentenced by Judge Harmon to the Michigan City peniten- tiary for life.
 The lad, declared to be mentally de. ficient, had criminally attacked a 10-year-old Elkhart girl. The punish ment was fixed by statute and the judge had no alternative. The state board of pardons alone has the power to parole or pardon the boy.
 But the astounding feature of the story was the family history of the lad.
 Two months previously the boy had been released from the Plainfield school, reformatory institution, aft CT having served 19 months in it
 The boys brother was recently re- leased from the Jeffersonville, Ind, reformatory.
 Another brother is in the Longcliff asylum fer the insane, in Indiana.
 A sister is in the School for Feeble Minded Youths at Fort Wayne, Ind,
 Certainly a most remarkable family record, and the query will naturally come, why?
 The parents of the children, it

Special to Times-Republican.
Cedar Falls, Jan. 17.-Lieut Pat
O'Brien, Of the British Royal Flying
Corps, is soon to return to America on
furlough, according to word received
here today from Momence, III. OBrien's
home town, by Mrs. E. c. Dahl of this
city, who was a schoolmate of O'Brien
back in Momence not so very many
years ago. She has kept in touch with
the noted fighting aviator and his rel
atives and is greatly interested in news
of his welfare.
O'Brien gained International fame by
his daring escape from German cap
tors following which he returned to
the British lines and subsequently sus-
tanned serious injuries in falling 5000
feet with his machine. during an aerial
combat with the 'boche. Since his fall
he has been in London hospital,
where he is now recovering and hopes
soon to return to America for further
convalescence.
O'Brien's dramatic escape from his
Hun captors occurred while he was be-
ing transported from one German pri-
son camp to another aboard a German
train. He was riding under heavy
guard. He complained of the bad air in
the coach and his request to have the
window opened was granted. Soon af-
ter the opening of the window O'Brien
swung thru it feet first, escaping from
the moving train, and eluded all at
tempts at recapture. His adventures
are among the most thrilling of all
episodes Of the great war.

BOOTLEG BOOZE COMES HIGH.
Two Story County Men Have Rather
Expensive Experience.

Nevada, Jan. 1.-THE fee Of one per-
fectly good lawyer, who saves a man
from stiff fine or possible imprison-
ment, does not come as high as the
cost of one gallon of "bootlegger'
whisky.
A. J. Armstrong of near McCalls-
burg had never had any experience
with lawyers but tradition had led him
to believe that they came high.
When one was appointed by the court
to appear for him in a bootlegging
case and the court suggested that he
pay the lawyer he stated that he would
be willing to- as soon as he could raise
the money. but that he "onIy had about
$40 with him.
Judge Mccall remarked that that
ought to be enough to pay'a couple
of attorneys at least for appearance
in that case and Armstrong gladly
handed over the fee to Attorney Car
field of Ames.
Armstrong and a man named Lura
had gone over to st. Anthony and
bought gallon of liquor for which
Armstrong paid $50 and Lura paid his
share when they returned home. Arm
strong got drunk and when arrested
told where the liquor came from and
signed a written confession which got
him into trouble and he was brought
into court upon a charge of boot
Logging. He was intending to plead
guilty. when an attorney was secured
at the suggestion of the court. The
plea was changed to mot guilty." and
the attorney secured the release Of
Armstrong upon point Of law.
They bought the booze together. The
man at st. Anthony who made the
illegal sale refused to take T.. Lura's
check, so Armstrong paid over the
cash and Lura paid his share when
they got home and the liquor was d.
vided.
They paid $50 for the gallon OF
booze and 81 to hveryman to take
them over. Armstrong also paid a
lawyer to get him out Of his trouble
and fine for intoxication at McCalls-
burg.

Report Many Cases
Of Rheumatism Now
Says We must keep feet dry;
avoid exposure and eat
less meat.

Say off the damp ground. avoid ex-
posture, keep feet dry, eat less meat,
drink lots of water and, above all, take
"a spoonful of salts occasionally to keep
down uric acid.
Rheumatism is caused by poisonous
toxin, called uric acid, which Is gen.
Grated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. It is the function Of the
kidneys to filter this acid from the
blood and cast it out in the urine. The
pores Of the skin are also a means of
freeing the blood Of this impurity. In
damp and chilly, cold weather the skin
pores are closed. thus forcing the kid
neys to do double work; they become
weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid, which keeps accumulat-
ing and circulating through the sys-
tenn, eventually settling in the joints
and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness
and pain, called rheumatism.
At the first twinge Of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces Of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
full in a glass Of water and drink before
breakfast each morning for a week.
This is said to eliminate uric acid by
stimulating the kidneys to normal ac-
ton, thus Kidding the blood Of these
impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism, Here you have pleasant,
efferyescent Whitewater drink which
overcomes uric acid and is beneficial
to your kidneys as well.
