LIFE dream OF
TOIL--WORN Wife
is SHATTERED
Has Worked for Years to Own
Home; Husband Refuses
to Leave Abode
of Parents.

For more than nine years-Helen
Zemersk, Twenty-first and S
streets, had struggled long and bit
terly to earn sufficient money to en-
able her to establish a home of her
own.
At the end of each month she
would turn over her hard-earned
money over to her husband, Joseph.
AS the little hoard grew through her
own and husbands efforts hope
waxed strong in her heart. The pos
sibility of realizing her lifelong de-
sire and of escaping from the home
of her husbands parents cheered the
wan little woman and she was con-
tent to struggle along, working at
Armour's Packing company in the
daytime and about the house in the
evening.
In police court Saturday morning
the toilworn little woman saw al,
her dream of happiness shattered.
Loves labor" was lost beyond re-
call, for the husband, himself torn
between parental affection and duty
and love for his wife, has refused
to depart from the parental roof. =
Loves Her Man.
81 love my man." said the little
woman, stoically before Judge
Charles Foster, where she and her
spouse had been brought on the
charge of disturbing the peace.
AT the hearing it developed that it
was not the husband and wife who
caused the trouble.
a. have too many bosses" she
continued in broken English. "He
is a good man and ! am willing to
be with him always, but his father
and mother mstreat me. His moth
err strikes me and pulls my hair"
That was the substance of her
testimony and the husband, stand
ing impassively by, failed to deny
any of her statements. But he re-
fused to separate from his par
ents.
His father, he stated, is an in
valid the greater part of the time.
Judge Foster advised the husband
to follow his wife's desires and
establish a separate home. Only in
that way could their troubles be
solved, he stated.
They were discharged, but the
husband refused to accept the sug-
gestion of the judge and the little
woman was led weeping from the
court room.

GLASS OF SALTS
CLEANS KIDNEYS
If your Back is aching or Blad-
der bothers, drink lots of
water and eat less meat.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with
lot Of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keen your bowels clean, by flushing
them with a mild, harmless salts
which removes the bOdy's urinous
waste and stimulates them to their
normal activity The function Of the
kidneys is to filter the blood In "a
hours they strain from it 500 grains
of acid and waste, so we can readily
understand the vital Importance OF
keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-you can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning for a few days and 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
generations to clean and stimulate
clogged kidneys; also to neutralize
the acids in urine so it no longer is
a source Of irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
injure; makes a delightful effer-
vescent Whitewater drink which
everyone should take now and then
to keep their Kidneys clean and
active. Try this, also keep up the
water drinking, and no doubt you
will wonder what became Of yow

against the heaviest odds, elected a

very definite purpose. That pur-
pose was to solve these very prob
lens by craftsmanship of experience.
| am advised that the chief execu-
tive issued a statement on Tuesday,

duct of public affairs that call

reasoning which reconciles this
statement with his speech to con-
gress last December, 'justifying his
departure on his first trip, when he
said, I shall be in close touch with
YOU and with affairs on this side of
the water, and you will know all that
I do. shall not be inaccessible.
The cables and wireless will render
me available for any counsel or ad-
vice you may desire of me, and /
shall be happy in the thought that
am constantly in touch with the
mighty matters of domestic policy,
with which we shall have to deal
THE mighty problems of domes-
tic policy remain and they are still
unsolved, but their solution is still
more necessary. In all fairness and
Justice to the situation in the emer-
gency which exists in the country
we should have this special session.
The people are entitled to have these
elected republicans given an oppor-
tunity Immediately to function. This
is not a matter of politics; it is a

Ever since the armistice was

il is question whether we shall be

meet the situation.

Clearly, we cannot complacently
watch Europe starving and feed our
selves in full. That is not the spirit
of this nation which through UNI
selfishness won the war. We are
going to help. And if helping means
that the situation here does not inn
prove as rapidly as it otherwise

not grumble.
