MEAT INJURIOUS
TO THE KIDNEYS
Take a Tablespoonful oil
Salts if Back Hurts or
Bladder Bothers.

We are nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid. says
a well-known authority, who warns US
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps OF lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
selief during the night; when you have
severe headaches, nervous and dizzy
spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather, get from
your pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning and in a few days your kid
neys 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 flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu
tralize the acids in urine so it is no
longer a source of irritation, thus end
ing urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injuTe; makes a delightful efferves
cent lithia-water drink, and nobody can
make a mistake by taking a little oc
casionally to keep the kidneys clean
and active.-Advertise

The Worlds Bone of Contention

China is the worlds bone of contention
says the Cincinnati Enquirer. Gust now the
United States is contending for the integrity OF
China. England, it appears, and France may be
depended upon to stand with this government.
Even Japan indicates a willingness to deal fairly
by the former great empire. The guaranty Of
this integrity must constitute a condition
precedent to the determination of the major
questions now before the Washington confer
ence.s
mo wonder the nations have looked upon this
ancient land with avid eyes. China is tremen~
dous in area and possibilities for development.
Properly speaking, to the present recognized
area Of the country should be added Manchuria,
Thibet, Korea and the French territory included
in AMMAN and Tonkin. But without these the
nation still is gigantic in area and resources. But
these territories really Chinese and, with the

people to erect, through their ASSOCIATION, a sup
stantial and self-supporting sovereignty.
ct is true that at present these 10 provinces
practically are controlled by as many autocratS
or feudal lords. They are Indifferent to the
authority of either of the contendlng republics
which, it must be admitted, are rather shaky
republics, after all.
But the dynastic day is over. Thirty dynas-
ties have swayed the destinies of this ancient
land The grandson of Ghengis Khan conquered
the country in 1890, or thereabout. Then came
the Mngs After several hundred years fol-
lowed the Manchus. A few more centuries bring
us to the latest revolution the revolution of the
young progressives.
ut has been the custom Of the nations to fol-
low the example of the Manchu gentleman, who
took over the ruling of China, to say that the
Chinese are incapable OF self-government, and
hence each of them has been trying to have a
finger in the Oriental pie. The time now has
come when each of them is invited to assist the
Chinese to become capable of self-government
and to be satisfied with equal trade opportun-
tiles, all on the level and in open, so to speak.
China offers to do the right thing by the
nations and submits her 10 points indicating to
the world what she expects in return for her

No. 2s-MirI- Reading With Matches


A dozen matches are laid in a row,
and any one is asked to move as many
as he desires from the left to the
right. while the performers back is
turned. When this has been done he
glances at the matches and names the
number moved.
In arranging the matches, the per
former looks for a match which is
slightly different from the others in
color or shape of head. If he does
not see such a match he secretly hicks
the bottom of one with his thumbnail.
This match is placed at the left of the
line. and as the matches are moved one
by one to the right. he has only to look
for the known match and count the
number it lies from the right, which will
be the number moved.

In the cabin of the three gables. The
old man was more than usually rest
less. The girl lowered about his chair
constantly. She succeeded at last in
coaxing him down liz his chair, where
he sat groaning; mumbIing in his
beard; and whetting the knife on the
palm of his hand She had smoothed
the cushions behind his head. and
stood stroking his face with her hand,
when, without the least warning, the
door flew open, and, sharply outlined
against the dark background of the
night, man with red mask over his
face stalled across the threshold.
He was, of course quite unaware
that the girl already knew his. identity.
That probably explained why he had
put on the mask. 1t would be impos-
sible to describe the startling trans
formation it wrought on his sinister
face. From out Of all its many ter
rors the night could not have selected
a more appalling one to fling into the
cabin.

seemed to rouse him. He glanced up.
rubbed his wide, pitiful eyes, and.
with a wild cry-nore that of beast
than man-sprang from the chair with
q strength that sent the girl Keeling.

Many times our best angels are moi
appreciated. The very fact that we
are so accustomed to their ministry
makes them commonplace. Bill was
handy man at a certain college. He
didn's get rich on what he did but he
knew more about things than any one
there. He just naturally took the re-
sponsibility for everything. But no
one appreciated him. In fact he be-
came something of joke and every
body took occasion to shove off re-
sponsibility on him knowing that he
could be counted on putting anything
through that he undertook. So. they
worked the willing horse until he was
picked up by more appreciative con-
Germ and the college lost a good angel.
Incidentally might add, two men and
