BADTAKE SALTS
If KIDNEYS ACT
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been
eating too much meat, says a we'll
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the blood
and they become sort Of paralyzed
and loggy. When your kidneys get
sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels;
removing all the body's urinous
waste, else you have backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells; your stomach
sours, tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full
of sediment, channels often get sore,
water scalds and you are obliged to
seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable ply
sician at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast for few
days and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid Of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with ithia, and has been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the urine so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes a delightful,
effervescent lithia-water drink. 20

with the exhilaration of the moment Mr. LeBaudy &C.
knOwledged the tributes of the galaxy of beauties with

At the announcement from the uniformed footman a
quick silence fell upon the party. Timorousy Nine Lee

She pathetic figure standing there Her modest
street suit of wellworn serge seemed almost rags her
awkward boots almost grotesque in comparison with
the dainty satin slippers of the other women Her face
suddenly blanched, deadly white, more like ex-
quisite china than sharp contrast with the highly
colored cheeks Of the demi-montaines.
"Ths is my wife, ladies-what do you think Of bert"
1t was Lebaudy speakng-and there was no note of
pride, just cruel ridicule in his voice.
Instantly there a litter, then laugh-then a
merry bantering. To the accompaniment of peals Of
The Washington times., 1919-06-01

slvery laughter each of the ades shouted something
something well calculated by feminine instinct
cut deep under that modest street suit and little poke
bonnet The glasses were raised again and toast
drunk-One of the demimOndanes shouted it above the
clamor-a toast that caused blush of shame and hurt
to bring the color back to the pale cheeks.
Lebaudy sat quietly, his cold eyes turned blankly
upon his suffering wife, Gathering her strength Nine
Lebaudy turned and left the room, holding back her
until she had thrown herself onto the bed in the
sleeping room to which the footman conducted her.
Nine Lebaudy thought her world of romance had
come to an end. But when Mr. Lebaudy came into the
room her he was all fOndness and affection He would
not permit her to upbraid him. neither did he seek to
explain his curious behavior What impelled
him that night to subject her such humiliation still
remains mystery in the widows mind
When Mr.. Lebaudy went from France to found his
Empire of the Sahara taking with him a cutthroat
army has been described this page before he left
his young wife in Paris without informing her as to his
amazing plan. "A business trip will return before
long, ;" was his parting explanation.
After a mouth, during which time she heard but in
frequently from her absent husband she received from
him mysterious telegram ordering her to proceed at
the city of Las Palmas in the Canary Islands
where he would receive her.
She packed her luggage hastily, not knowing how
long she was to be away from her Paris home where
her husband intended to take he,.
Just outside the harbOr of Las Palmas a covered
launch met the steamer which Nine Lebaudy had
barked It's pilot shouted for the steamer to stop and
take him aboard declaring he had the proper govern
ment orders When the pilot had boarded the
he asked if there Nine. Lebaudy aboard, saying
that if there he had instructions from her husband
and the permission of the to take her aboard
the launch to her husband private yacht then lying in

Nine. Lebaudy at once boarded the launch. She dis

"IS this the yacht of Mr. Lebaudyf" Nine. Lebaudy
asked.
It is the yacht of the Emperor Jacques the First"
the pilot answered.
A moment later Nine. Lebaudy passed up the narrow
stairs let down to the launch and stood deck Before
her the strangest she ever had witnessed.

up again. pompous dignitary in the flowing robes Of
a desert shekh came forward to take her hand and

Speeches with amazement, Mime. Lebaudy walked
between the kneeng "courtiers until she stood quiv

hand upon her head, and heard his voice:
eve greet your Most Serene Majesty Empress
Augustine, imperial and the sharer of our
throne Stand beside and the greeting of your
Emperor, Jacques the First"
For moment Nine Lebaudy thought it was but
another Wilma practical joke startling than
all others. But her frightened eyes turned the
faces about her and sensed their solemnity she knew
that this, least was intended to be real As she
stepped to the das helped by her husband she heard
Mr. Lebaudy speaking again:
Ladies and gentlemen the Empress is weary. You
will be presented her later the day. 1t is our desire
that you leave us now Instantly the strange group
of attendants disappeared and Mrs Lebaudy was left

Already Mr.. Lebaudy had ordered imperial robes
