If you must have your meat every with salts occasionally, says a 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 a 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 lrr1tated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four ounces of lad Salts from any phar- macy here: take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine.

KING GEORGE WON'T
 BUY HOPE DIAMOND
British Monarch Refuses H.
 0mened Gem

Chicago, Oct. 1O.-King George and Queen Mary, according to 8 story brought from England, recently re- fused an offer to buy the ill-omened Hope diamond owned by Edward B. Mclean, an American millionaire.
 They are said to have based their refusal to acquire this wonderful blue stone of A IA carats which sur passes many gems of royal and inn perial collections in size and beauty on tho ground that Queen Mary has too many jewels.
 Their real reason, gossip says, was d superstitious dread that this dia- mond of tragic history might bring some great misfortune on the royal house.
 This rumOr has proved surprising, because King George and Queen Mary are popularly supposed to be a hard l. headed, sensible couple, devoid of superstition. The long list of trage- dies, however, associated With the Hope diamond has given the gem a sufficiently evil fame, it might be be- lieved, to inspire fear even in mon- archs. Death or disaster has over taken practically everyone who owned wore it since Louis XIV. bought it. fresh from India, in the middle of the 17th Century.
 MT. and Mrs. Mclean, who bought it in 1911, scoffed at this ancient superstition until their little son was killed in an automo obile accident a few months ago. Since then, it is said, they have been trying to get rid of it. The price of the worlds great his toric diamonds, when any price at all is put on them, is supposed to remain practically static With the world

THE Marquis OF Prioa' came long
before the studies of Paris life that
have brought the playwright his great
est fame. The play is indeed or the
period Of THE Duel" having been
written only three years before. Prob
ably the subject prevented its per-
Torrance here earlier, for whatever
may be said to the contrary the Amer
lean stage welcomes to-day plays that
would have filled its public with horror
a decade ago. In spite OF It's complete
devotion to n subject that finds no
recognition here, the play Is interest
ing. And It is not made 80 through
the technical skill O. its author.
What Is there in this study Of rake
that manages to retain the interest Of
a public that never knew his like nor
has any knowledge OF the decadent
society in which he thrives-in which
alone indeed. he could live?
Perhaps it is the thoroughness with
which Lavedan has drawn the char
acter. IT is wholly imaginary. Even
at the beginning of the present CEN
fury French society never knew Don
Juan so hopelessly out OF date. With
all his boasting Of the profigacy of his
family through the ages, his relentless
cruelty toward the women he had con-
auered and his complete confidence OF
victory, he is a derelict from the mid
die ages that Lavedan has by the force
OF his imagination tried to make into a
figure Of contemporaneous life. He
does not succeed In making the italian
marquis plausible. although he IL un-
deniably interesting. Probably this is
due 20 the authors concentration on
revealing every facet of the protag-
onist's character. He sticks unswerv-
tngly to that task. The revelation
moreover Is complete.
In that stark simplicity OF the play
must lie its power to engross. OF
