SALTS FINE. FOR ~ = 4 !.
:. :xACHING KIDNEYS


Most folks forget that tie kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and
clogged and nec@ q flushing occas-
ionally, else we have backache and
dull misery in the kidney region, Sc
we're headaches, rheumatic twinges,
torpid liver, acid stomach, sleepless-
ness and all sorts Of bladder dis
orders. :
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean, and the mo-
ment you feel an ache or pain in the
kidney region, get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any good drug store
here, 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 is harmless
to flush clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them to normal activity. It also
neutralizes the acids in the urine so
it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; Inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent ithia-
water drink when everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious
complications.
A well-known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trou-
bic while it is only trouble. T.

THEATE r
BRA1NERD's FAMOUS P1TCHER4

To see any picture starring Charles
Ray is delight, but to see him In
1.-THE Busher," his latest Paramount
picture, is a privilege which, once
enjoyed, cannot be forgotten In a
hurry. This was the verdict of the
audiences that greeted this meritor-
ious production at the Elko theatre
yesterday, and to again appear in
that house tonight, last times.
This is a capital story Of the small
town baseball player, who migrates
to the city and, finding himself more
than usually prosperous as member
Of a big league team, gets chesty and
is dropped from the roll to teach him
a lesson. 1t so closely follows the
experiences Of Joe Bush, the famous
Brainerd big league pitcher, that it
would seem this photoplay visualizes
his early career. There is an excel
lent love story which holds the in
,terest to the final scene.

SEND MONEY FROM COUNTRY.
.(BY United Press. }

Rome, Oct. 2.-1n an attempt to
escape the new taxation large num-
bers of the wealthy classes are said
to be converting their money into
British and American currency, and
depositing ut in banks abroad. The
rate of exchange, already adverse,
has naturally not been improved by
this reported procedure, and the lat
est quotation for Italian lire shows
fall of sixty per cent in the case
of the British pound sterling, and 80
per cent in the case Of the United
States dollar, as compared with pre-
war rates. Fears of labor troubles
are also largely responsible for the
exodus of Italian capital, and the
Stock Exchange is depressed by in
sistent sales, which cause a continued
fall in quotations..

screen, is the first Mark Twain story

every where when first shown a few
years ago. The story is dramatic and
the various situations are filed with
expectancy and thrills. Mr.. Roberts
