r ACK DEMPSEY'S tour will not aJ prove the big financial success to Barney Gerard that the Jack John son, and Abe Atteu ventures turned out to be. Barney cleaned up quite some change by taking those two bat tiers about the country. But with Dempsey 8 different story is being written.
 From New York today we received the information that Barney is al ready a trifIe under 5000 in the hole. He has guaranteed Dempsey 2.OOO a week. The carnival opened to a big audience at Chester, Pa, but when it struck New Haven 1t ran into q streak of hard luck with the re- suit that slim crowds have been at tending the performances ever since.
 The trouble with the show is that the billing is misleadin The pub lie by reading the advance notices circulated by it's energetic press agent and advance man. Billy Nc Carney, is led to believe that the box CTS and wrestIers with the troupe will compete in real contests. On tns contrary, they merely give exhibi- tons. If Barney will be honest with the public and take 1t into it's con- fdence we believe he will probably win back some of the money he will have lost when the first week winds up tonight

NEW HAvENERS
 GRABBED S242
Lindsey, However, Drew Big Purse In Recent
 Big Bowling Tourney.

New Haven bOwIers grabbed down S242 in cash prizes at the recent American Bowling Congress tourna- ment in Toledo, according to the of ficial prize list received here yestcr- day. Mort Lindsey, all-events win her, and third man in the singles, reaped a major portion of the melon. For capturing the aI-events title with a score of 1893 he won $13O in cash as well as a, diamond-studded medal valued at about S25O. His score of 690 in the singles gives him $22O, while he splits $22 with Joe Porto their doubles score nf 1166.
 Lindsey was the only member of the team that figured in the distribu- ton of prizes in the alI-events. Porto and Charley Johnson, however. drew down $19 and $14, respectively. for their rolling in the singles. Two splits in the ninth and tenth frames of his singles pushed Porto out of the au-events and cost him close to s1OO in the singles.
 The official records show that Charley Johnson and Champ Palmer rolled 113S in the doubles instead of ITS, as first reported in the news dispatches from Toledo. This score placed them in 241st position for a cash prize of ST. Moose Sullivan and Al Johnson, as was the case at Cincinnati a year ago, failed to cut into the prize money at all. Fol lowing are the local prize winners:

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys if bladder bothers
you.

Eating meat regularly eventu-
ally produces kidney trouble in
some form or other, says a we'll
known authority, because the uric
acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly
backache and misery in the kid
ney region; rheumatic twinges,
severe headaches, acid stomach,
constipation, torpid liver, sleep
lessness, bladder, and urinary irri,
tation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, get about
four ounces of Jad Salts from
any good pharmacy; take table
spoon full in a glass Of water be-
fore breakfast for a 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 stimu-
late them to normal activity; also
to neutralize the acids in the
urine so it no longer irritates
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure any
one; makes a delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which mil
lions of men and women take
now and then to keep the kidneys
and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney. disease.
