CHAMBER CUTS
FREIGHT RATES
Commerce Body Saves Mem
bers S6O4.15 in Month.

John r. Reynolds, general secretary
o. the indianapolis Chamber Of Com
"serce, today announced that the savings
10 members effected by the freight and
lraf1c division in reduced freight charges
amounted last month to S6O415.
Like other going, growing concerns,
the chambers growth has been based on
service" said Mr.. Reynolds. This serv-
ice has not been confined to the organ
ization's membership, but has included
service to the community, to the nation.
ONE CONCERN
SAVES S242.32.
Men are Joining the Chamber of Com
merce not only from desire to aid in
the performance of their civic duty, but
because it pays, and frequently pays big.
We were able to save one concern $242. 80
last month on one shipment alone. This
was scrap steel shipped from Palestine,
pc, to Indianapolis.
"Of course, there are other divisions
Of the chamber, each rendering its par
ticular service to the membership or the
community. Nor is the pay all confined
10 a financial saving, though I do believe
there is hardly a member who did not
profit last year through his af1liation
with the chamber"
The service rendered by the freight
is chairman and Harry McNeely secre-
tary, includes supplying members with
correct freight charges, advising them of
the cheapest classihcations under which
the shipment can be charged, and thus
enabling them to check up their freight
bills.
AFFECTS SHIPMENTS
OF MANY KINDS.
The shipments on which savings were
made last month included monographs,
lumber, automobiles, logs, scrap and
sheet iron, cabbage, castings and steel,
shipped to Indianapolis from all parts
of the country.
The firms sharing IN last months
savings were the Insley Manufacturing
Company, National Malleable Castings
Company, Eagleield & Shepherd, Indi-
annapolis Brewing Company, Central
Veneer Company, Link Belt Company,
Kingan & Co., Stewart Talking Machine
Company, National Dry Kiln Company,
G. Hitz & Co. and the Chapman Price
Steel Company.

ENGLIsH'S.
A rare bit of comedy with punch
In every line is "a Prince There Was"
now playing at the English.
The story is pleasing one and the
portrayal Of characters Just about as
near perfection as can be accomplished
on the stage.
The action is easy in the opening scene,
but the excellent work Of Grant Mitchell
as Charlie Martin, "a Prince There Was
holds the audience until the plot gets into
full swing, and there is not dull mo-
ment.
The prince is not really a member OF
royalty at all, but merely has-been
prince of good fellows whose life has lost
its kick.
To scare up a bit Of excitement he in
vades the portals. Of New York board
ing house, where he thrives on hash and
comes in contact with some regular
characters Of Metropolitan life.
And of course, there is delightful
love story without too many complica-
tions, that turns out all right in the end.
Grant Mitchell IS the recognized star

Two years before the farce opens Garry
Ainsworth, a pure, but weak, character,
gives Mabel the inscribed chemise for a
present while in Paris. During the first
act Of the farce Garry and Geraldine
have been married a month. Geraldine
is one Of those cry-baby wives who is
suspicious of her husband and really
afraid that he has not had past.
All are attending the same house
party. That is, Mabel, Garry, Geral-
dine, another married pair, and Mabel's
future husband, is the host.
Mabel threatens to show Garry's baby
wife the chemise. The complications oc-
eur when Garry Hires a detective and
aids himself in attempting to steal the
rose-pink affair.
1t is an awful mixup and the laughs
Of the many funny situations win not be
exposed here. In the end all compiled
tons are ironed out and everybody is
happy.
The big scene is Mabels room, and
the cLemise is much In evidence. Ac-
cording to the formula of all bedroom
farces, the bed occupies a prominent
place.
Julie Ring is the pretty Mabel and
she creditably maintains the farce at
mosphere. She takes the role originally
created by Hazel Dawn.
Sager Mldgley has a difficult role as
the "simp" husband, who attempts to
steal the chemise. He makes Garry the
innocent boob that the writer OF the
farce intended. He, too, maintains the
farce atmosphere and prevents the goody
goodness of Garry to become annoying
Others in the cast include Joseph A..
Bingham, Nicholas Judels, Jamese Nor
val, Dorothy Fox Slaytor, Elaine Mans
as Garry's baby faced wife; Dorothy
Blackburn, Frederic Clayton and Jean
cite Bageard. They are fair.

KIDNEYS
f Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You, Drink Lots of
Water.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep 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 WATERPROOF can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take 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
is no longer source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot, in
jure; makes delightful effervescent
lithia- water 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 your kidney trouble.

Moscow Couple Adopt BABY.


Jean Fay, the beautiful baby girl,
seven months old, sent to Moscow
from Spokane four weeks ago to Mr..

ton, and adoption, if the child was
wanted, has found a home. They will
adopt the little one, having already
become very much attached to Jean,
and giving her that tender, loving
care that real parents give. Mrs.
Rowland is providing the new baby
with most comfortable wardrobe.
and doing for her all that a mother
could do. The baby's mother died.
and Spokane acquaintances Of tho
Rowlands wrote asking if they wos,ld
consider the gift of baby girl. The
child was accepted on trial. When 1T
arrived a doctor was called and the
tiny tot given a thorough physical
examination. 1t was passed as per-
feet in every way, altho it had cold,
which has not yet entirely left it.
But it has thrived, is fat and good ma
tured, and has a smile for everyone.
Jean has already become the object
of much interest in Moscow, and has
made friends with all who see her.
Her value according to the foster par
ents, is increasing at the rate of some
million dollars per minute.

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed With Sulphur 1t Darkens So
Naturally Nobody
Can Tell

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair a good,
even color, which is quite sensible, as
we are living in an age when a youth
full appearance is of the greatest adj
vantage
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready use
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients called Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound. It is very
popular because nobody can discover
it has been applied. Simply moisten
your comb or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also pro-
duces that soft lustre and appearance
OF abundance which is so attractive.
