LANCASTER, PA, Aug. 27, 1919.
The recent hail storm did more dam
age than was at first supposed. The
earlier reports were bad enough, but
they did not tell the worst. Later es-
Inmates place the damage at half mil
lion dollars. Every part of the county
felt the storm, but it was most severe
ly felt in the southern section. In some
localities it covered irregular areas and
in others swept wide stretches. The
worst damage was done between Mill
ersville and Pequea, on the Susquehan-
ma river. Here, as in other sections,
fields were SO riddled that nothing re-
mained to be done but plow under the
stalks. The less badly damaged tobac-
co will be allowed to stand and ripen,
to be sold as scrap, and will not be,
therefore, total loss. Cheap tobacco
for scrap purposes being scarce, the
scrap men will be after the damaged
crops. but the growers have been ad-
vised to hold on and not sell too soon,
as better prices may be obtained later.
Another hail storm, Tuesday evening,
swept West Cocalico township, damag-
ing many tobacco crops. Damage was
extensive around Stevens, Schoeneck,
Springsville and Reamstown.
Black rot continues to be found in
1918 packings, which are being over
hauled. Very little musty tobacco,
however, is found among these pack
ings.

At LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a glass of Salts to flush Kidneys
if Bladder bothers you-Drink
lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipaGion, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in 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 lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

we drove home snuggled
close to Everett and told him how
much had enjoyed my birthday, and
how happy l had been.
SIN just year | will be 49," I
said as we neared home, 81 wonder
if l will have as nice birthday
then"
Everett threw his head back and
laughed so heartily l laughed with
him.
81 never saw anyone so anxious
to be old as you are" he said still
smiling. Then soberly, 81 don't like
the way you keep thinking of thai
subject. Be thankful that you are
young"
l was glad We were at home. I
sort of knew that he had my foolish
speech l had made at Mrs. Garry's
dinner party in his mind. He had
spoken of it several times, always
sneeringly. He seemed to think chat
l only wanted to be old to be inter
esting and attractive to men. 1t
wasn't so a bit, but he got cross
every time he said anything about it.

l thought, even if l feel them
We had another piece of my birth

he was still so kind that | felt really
more like his wife than / ever had
done. and less like a naughty little
girl.
wrote mother another letter IN
the morning telling her of my birth
day cake, and of how prettily Mrs,
Gray had trimmed the table for me.
Mother was terribly interested IN
nv home and in Mrs. Gray. She
had said she thought me wonderfully
fortunate to have woman of exper-
fence as a h3usekeeper. l wanted
mother to feel comfortable about me-
You see she had objected to my mar
rving so old a man, so / wrote her
everything nice that happened and
kept the other things to myself.
The next day thought came to
me that made me so excited | couid
scarcely wait until I told some one.
It was to have Rose Grandon and
Barrett Edmonds marry. Then |
could have Rose near me, and Bar
rett too. 1t would be an ideal ar
rangement. It would soon be Spring.
Everett said l might have Rose dur
ing the summer for visit. | would
introduce her right away to Barrett
and perhaps they would get married
in the fall. Rose would be most nine
teen then. And she would be through
school. She finished in June.
| ran upstairs and found the very
preruest picture l had of Rose, or
dered the car and took it down to
be framed. l would have nothing but
one of the handsome new standing
frames. I would put the picture on
the piano, then when Barrett Ed
monds came to try some more music
he would see it and most likely ask
who it was.
would tell him how lovely Rose
was and praise her to the skies. She
was my best friend even if we did
quarrel little because l was going
to marry man older than l was.
And when Rose saw my lovely home,
and all the beautiful things Everett
had given me, she would not feel so
badly about it.
l paid a ridiculous price for the
frame. But nothing seemed too good
to set off Roses picture, so as to
further my scheme. l wrote her
long letter telling her to plan to
come the minute her school closed,
and limiting that | had wonderful
surprise in store for her.
Then I posted the letter at once.
When it was safely in the box at
the corner I felt had taken the
first step in keeping my promise to

to wait until he came again. Yet he

another girl before her.

New Zealand Labor Legislation.

An interesting summary OF indus
trial legislation passed by the New
Zealand parliament in it's last session
of 1918 has been supplied officially
by an officer of the labor department
to the Auckland Weekly News.
The arbitration court has been given
power, on the application of any party
to an existing award or industrial
agreement:to amend that award or
agreement with regard to wages and
hours, on account of the cost Of living
having increased, or on account OF
any other change in the working con-
ditions.i It has also been given juris-
diction to continue any war bonus
prescribed in an award or Industrial
agreement, either wholly or partially
and for any term that 1t thinks ut.
/ Returned soldiers, who were appren-
tees working under awards and agree
ments. have been given the option OF
continuing their apprenticeship from
the point at which they laid them
down to enlist, or Of taking up the
apprenticeship again as though the
apprenticeship, had been continued
while they were on active service.

In spite of the popular belief to the

this country; instead, it has brought
new problems and dangers. Tempo
rary high wages in war industries have
ceased; women discharged from NUM-

they earned 500 ora$25 week, are re-
luctantly taking positions at $40 or

their old places at all, In ordinary
peacetime occupations, such as laundry
work and paper box making, wages
have risen little, despite the increase
In the cost of living. With the men re.
