Gotta Rican Official Who Lived by
Sword Died by the Sword.

San Jose, Costa Rica, Aug. 2S. -
Assassination Of Joaquin Tinoco, late
minister of war and brother of form
er President Federico Tinco, on Aug
ust last, is still an unsolved mystery
with indications that the slayer may
never be brought to answer for his
Icrime. The fortnight which has clap
sed since the tragedy has brought
out a number of interesting facts in
connection with it which never be-
fore have been told.
Joaquin was SO years of age, one
of the handsomest men in Costa Rica
a quick shooter and courageous as
a lion. He was tall and of athletic
build, fond of horses, and member
of one of the most distinguished
families. He rarely went unarmed and
had fought a numbe. of duels. The
widow of one of his adversaries, a
lawyer he killed in a revolver fight,
few years ago sought to avenge
her husband and fired five shots at
close range at Tinco but the later sur
vived his wounds.
When on JenuaIy 27, 1917, his
brother, Federico, who was minister
Of war in the cabinet of President
Alfredo Gonzales, deposed the later
and became head of the government,
Joaquin was given the war portfolio
and thereupon. it is said. became the
real president of Costa Rica. For two
years previously Joaquin had been
fighting revolutionists and personal
enemies and when he became minister
of war he became still more emerge
tic. and aggressive. 1t has been said
that Joaquin on the day Of his death
had more enemies than a popular
motion picture actress in the United
States had admirers.
On the day before the assassination
Joaquin went before the Costa Rican
congress and asked release by
virtue of his cabinet post. At the
same time his brother, the president
asked official permission to leave
the country because of ell health. "
two Tinocos were granted and the
two Tinocos were preparing to de-
part when Joaquin was shot down.
A few months before he met his
death Joaquin began to take strange
interest in spiritualism. Frequently
he went to a small village called Qua
delupe, where he consulted woman
medium, and after his last visit seem
ed disturbed by what she had told
him. That same afternoon he return
ed home and telephoned for his car.
but it was out of order and he decid-
ed to go for a walk. A block from
his residence a man stepped from be-
hind a tree and fired at Tinoco point
blank. The shot pierced his eve
causing almost instant death. Moth

MEAT INJURIOUS
TO THE KIDNEYS
Take Tablespoonful of Salts il
Back Hurts or Blad-
der ROthers.

We are a nation of meat eaters and
a well-known authority, who warns
us to be constantly on guard against
kidney trouble,
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood from this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained
in the blood to poison the entire sys-
TEN.
When your kidneys ache and feel like
jumps of lead, and you have singing
pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during the night; when you
have severe headaches, nervous and
dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stom-
Iach or rheumatism in bad weather,
lget from your pharmacist about four
ounces of Jad Salts: take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in a few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for gen.
erations to flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys, to neutralize the
acids in urine so it is no longer a
source of irritation, thus ending uri-
nary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia- water drink, and nobody
can make a mistake by taking lit
tie occasionally to keep the kidneys
clean and active.
