larly can make a mistake by flushing
the kidneys occasionally, says a we'll
known authority. Meat forms une acid
which clogs the kidney pores so they
sluggIshly filter or strain only part of
the waste and polsons from the blood,
then you get sick. Nearly all rheuma-
tIsm, headaches, liver trouble, nervous
ness, constipation, dizzlness, sleeplessness,
bladder disorders come from slugglsh KID
news.
The moment YOU feel dull ache m the
kidneys or your back hurts, or If the
urine Is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi
ment, irregular of passage or attended
by sensation Of scaldlng, get about four
ounces Of lad Salts from any reliable
pharmacy and take a tablespoonful IN
a glass of water before 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, COM
bined wish lithia and has been used for
generations to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them CO activity, also TO neu-
tralIze the acids IN urine, so IL no longer
causes irritation, thus ending bladder dis
orders,
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not iniure; makes delightful effer-
vescent hthia-water drink which all reg
ular meat eaters should take now and
then to keep the kidneys clean and the
blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kid
ncy complications.

TROLLEY CARS HERE
New System, Adopted by Trac-
ton Co., Becomes Effective
Next Sunday.

Next Sunday system OF route num-
bers for destination signs on cars of the
Wilmington 4 Philadelphia Traction Co.
will go into effect. Final plans for its
sdoptiop were concluded at the weekly
meeting of department heads today. Ae-
cording to the new system, large num-

will designate the cars destination. Be-
meath the number, the cars route, such as

routes will quickly learn the specltle num-
bers which designate their cars. strangers
in the city will be able to tell the destina-
tions of the cars by means of the names
beneath the numbers.
The numbers will be pl aced on the right
hand side of the dash of the cars. Each
car will carry two numbers, one on the
front and one on the rear, indicating the
destinations each way. A Delaware ave
nue. car will carry the number 10. with
Delaware avenue" printed beneath 1t at
the front, going out. Returning, tins sign
will be on the rear, with one carrying the
number TO- with "Pennsy lvania Sta
WON printed beneath it, on the front

dicated in the same way. Following are
the numbers which will be used on the

MIDDLEMAN SOLD
WHISKY, ARCHIBALD
TELLS the OFFICERS
Young Man COnfesses to Chief Ort and
Delivers Supply Of Liquor which
He Had Stored at His
Home.

The investigation into the cutting
and wounding of Edward Archibald
two weeks ago, took rather surpris-
ing turn Monday evening following
the hearing of George and Arthur Dale
in Police Court on charge of assault
with deadly weapon.
Immediately following the payment
of the fines by the Dale brothers, Chief
of Police Harry A. Ort called Mr
Archibald into his private Office and
began ali investigation as to where ne
had obtained liquor with which he be-
came intoxicated on the evening of the
cutting scrape. After considerable
questioning, Mr.. Archibald told CHER
Ort that he had purchased a quart OF
whisky from Max Middleman for
which he had paid him the sum OF
twenty dollars. He said that he had
delivered the money to Middleman and
that Middleman had procured the
quart of liquor, which was made by an
Owensboro distillery, from his auto
mobile which was in the Buick ga
rage. The liquor was delivered at
Second and Limestone streets.
Mr.. Middleman was brought before
Chief Ort and finally confessed that
he had sold the liquor to Archibald
He also confessed that he had seven
quarts of liquor at his home and he
procured this liquor and delivered II
to the police.
Chief Ort has issued a warrant and
placed Middleman under arrest upon
an affidavit made by Archibald and
the matter has been reported to the
Federal authorities in Covington who
are expected to take up the matter i'm
mediately.

BURNS APE FATAL
TO MRS. HAMPTON;
DIES IN HOSPITAL
Woman Who Was Horribly Burned ut
Her Carmel Street Home Sunday,
Died at Haywood Hospital from
Injuries This Afternoon.

Mrs. James Hampton, who was
burned at her home in Carmel street
Sunday morning, died at Haywood
Hospital near o'clock this afternoon.
Since Sunday morning physicians
have held out little hope for her re-
covery, so horrible had her body been
charred by the flames which caught
her clothing from an open fireplace
before which she was standing. She
could not receive the treatment her
condition required at her home and on
Sunday afternoon she was taken to
the hospital where she has received
careful attention. The burns on her
body were such, however, that moth
ing short of a miracle would have
saved her life.
The death Of this mother is heart
wrenching. She leaves husband and
four small children, one son being the
little blind boy who begged at the
Corn and Tobacco Fair last week. The
children and the father and husband.
who is poor day laborer, will need
the assistance of the kind hearted at
this time while in their deepest grief.

FEDERAL AID IN
read BUILDING
IS IMPER|LED
Hopkins Circuit Court Bars Loan Of
County Money to State In
Order to Meet Federal
Aid.

Madisonville, KY, Nov. 30. = Every
Federal aid road project in Kentucky
is affected by the decision of Circuit
Judge Carl Henderson at special
term here Monday when. he perman-
emily enjoined the Hopkins Fiscal
Court from issuing 100000 of road
bonds.
The Fiscal Court also was enjoined
from "loaning or rendering any sum
of money belonging to Hopkins county
to the state of Kentucky"
The case will be carried to the
Court of Appeals Immediately. This
was the third step in litigation to de-
termine whether Hopkins county can
loan money to the state to be used in
meeting Federal aid money in con-
structing the route through the county
of the Dixie Bee Line, Federal pro-
ject. The action is Of statewide int err
est in that the outcome will affect
every county whose borders touch any
Federal road project.
The first step was taken six weeks
ago when Judge Henderson granted a
temporary Injunction restraining the
Fiscal Court from taking further ac-
tion in selling county road bonds for
the purpose of obtaining sl50,O00 to
loan the state. Associate Judge Gus
Thomas, Court Of Appeals, sustained
Judge Henderson's ruling three weeks
ago.
The State Road Department and
several counties that already had
made loans to the state for similar
purposes, Immediately were thrown
into confusian, and 1t was said II the
Injunction we're made permanent. the
state likely would lose all claim to
immediate Federal aid in road build
ing. Federal money must be used be-
fore the end of 1921.
The state is without funds with
which to take up Federal aid and
loans from the counties affected by
the different Federal road projects ap-
peared the happy solution. The state
planned to reimburse the counties or
a
completion of the roads, under such
a plan. 1t was said, the only expense
the counties would be called on tC
bear would be interest on the loans.
Grading and draining under state
contract has been in progress on the
Dixie Bee Line in this county about
two weeks. On suggestion Of Judge
Thomas, Judge Henderson held thu
special term of court, that the cas-,
might be taken to the Court of Ap
peals at once.
If the Court of Appeals reverse.
decision work on Federal road pro
jects would be pushed rapidly.

CITY IS UNABLE
TO Care FOR THE
MANY SUFFERING
Aims Committee of City Council
Makes Call For Help TO Care
For the Suffering of
the Community.

There is much suffering in Mays
vile at this time because of a short
age of funds. All Of the local chari-
ties have been calling the attention of
the public to this fact for the past sew
eral weeks but the matter was even
more forcibly presented today when
Mr.. w. r. Smith, member of the
Aims Committee of City Council, an
nounced that the demand for assist
ance had passed the city's limit and
that unless some assistance came
from the pocket books of the general
public suffering would be serious in
Maysville within a few weeks.
Councilman Smiths formal an
nouncement follows:
"As a member OF the Aims Commit
tee Of the City Council of the City of
Maysville, there is coming to my at
tention a great amount of suffering
among the poor. These calls for help
from worthy poor are so frequent that
the funds of the city, set apart for this
purpose are inadequate to meet them.
81 am making this appeal to the
good citizens of Maysville to see if
We, in manner, cannot alleviate this
suffering. l know of one case of the
mother of family who has been i'll
with the flu The children have been
neglected and all were in very seri-
Gus condition when called to my at
tention.
/ IF there are those in Maysville who
desire to contribute to fund to assist
the city in this relief, they may send
their checks to the local newspapers
or to any member of the Aims Com
mittee and this committee will see
that the money is properly expended
on worthy cases. Respectfully,
''w. R. SMITH"
This condition should be met
promptly by the big hearted people OF
Maysville. The city has been liberal
with its aims fund and yet 1t has been
careful. If the fund cannot care for
all worthy cases, some must suffer
unless the public comes to the relief
of the Aims Committee and the city
charities.
