unless their wage demands are met,
the company refuses to operate un-
less q 6-cent fare il granted. and
the city council is sitting back
placidly. refusing to take the step
that would bring about resumption
Of service.
Clinton street cars have not op-
Grated since wednesday morning
at l o'clock. The strike followed
rejection by the city council Of =
resolution providing permission for
the company to incvrease its fare
one cent. the company thereby de-
clining to accept the new wage de-
mands OF the men. The men ask
increases from SO and SIS cents per
hour to 20 and Is cents. The COM
pany had originally asked for a
a-ccnt increase, but had come down
to the lower figure when 1t was in
timated this might be favored by
the city dads.
But the council has gone even
further. Thursday the city attor-
ney was instructed to arrange for
an arbitration agreement. This
plan was presented to the council

IF BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat Less Meat, Also Take Glass o.
Salts Before Eating
Breakfast.

Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overwOrked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps
of lead. The urine becomes cloudy;
the bladder is irritated, and you
may be obliged to seek relief two
or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must
help them flush of the body's urin-
GUS waste or you'll be q real sick
person shortly. At first you feel a
dull misery in the kidney region,
you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel
rheumatic twinges when the wealth
er is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of wa
ter; also get from any pharmacist
four ounces of lad Salts; 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 clean
clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity, also to neutral
ize the acids in urine, so it no
longer is q source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot
injure; makes a delightful effer-
vescent lithia-water drink which
=, everyone should take now and then
to keep the, kidneys clean and &C
tive. Druggists here say they sell
| lots Of lad Salts to folks who be-
lieve in overcoming kidney trouble
| while it is only trouble-(Adv).

tion had been suggested here and that
it 10 not probable that it will be taken
up. Copeland Townsend, head Of the
Majestic Hotel, on the other hand,
thought the idea q good one and be-
lieved it the only proper and feasible
manner of getting rid of leftover al
coholic beverages.
At the office Of John Bowman, head
of the Pershing Square group Of ho-
tells, including the Biltmore, Commo-
and few others, it was said that the
surplus stocks of these hotels would
not be divided among the stockholders,
but that their ultimate disposal had
not been decided upon. A decision, it
was said, is expected to be reached
upon the arrival of Mr.. Bowman from
England within the next few days.
At the Offices Of L. M. Bloomer, head
of q group of hotels including the Nc
Alpin, Waldorf-Astoria, Claridge and
Annex, it was said that the stocks on
hand in these places, if there were any
at all, were negligible and the question
of their disposal had not been consid-
cred. They will not be distributed to
the public, it was stated.
Other hotel managers declared they
had sold all their liquors previous to
July 1. This class included by far the
largest number of hostelries. Never
theless it was stated that the amount
of liquor still in possession of New
York hotels amounted to hundreds of
thousands Of gallons. Most of this was
said to be in bond in the custody of
government officials.
