GLASS OF SALTS
STOPS BACKACHE
If Your Back Is Aching or Blad-
der Bothers, Drink Lots of
Water and Eat Less Meat.

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. Keep your
kidneys clean by flushing them
with a mild, harmless salts which
stimulates them to their normal
activity. The function of the
kidneys is to filter the blood. In
"a hours they strain from II 500
grains of acid and waste, so we
can readily understand the vital
Importance of keeping the kid
neys active. .
Drink lots of water-you can't
drink too much; also get from
any pharmacist about four ounces
Of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass OF water before break
fast 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 kid
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can
nor fnjure; makes a delightful
efferyescent 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
and backache.-Adv.

DIPLOMATS ASKED
TO SEE new CARS
AT SHOW THIS WEEK
Invited to Attend Exhibit of
The Smart Closed
Models.

Embassies STATS yesterday re-
ceived invitations to attend the
closed-car salon being held this
week at Convention Hall by the
Washington Automotive Trade As
ISOLATION.
1t is expected that a majority
will take advantage OF the invita-
ton, as the show will anord the
diplomats an opportunity actually
to see what Is in vogue in Ameri-
can closed car makes this year. For
the past two years, 1t Is UNDER
stood. American cars have been fast
becoming popular with foreign mo-
florists.
An unusual sales boom will result
from the show, according to Ru-
dolph Jose, chairman of the show
committee. Despite the rain last
night. the hall was virtually food
ed with patrons. Many of the So
ciety set were present, bringing
with them the younger folks. who
utilized the upper balcony for dane
ing.
A surprise was given the mosos
enthusiasts when Julius Shikloff. II
years old, of 1855 Irving street
northwest. stood on the edge OF
The balcony and interrupted the
busy statesmen by singing several
songs. His appearance was unex-
lected. but the continual buzz in
the hall ceased while he performed.
The largest attendance yet re-
corded will undoubtedly take place
tomorrow and Saturday nights, &C.
cording to the officials.

Baseball hard luck resulted In
the Nationals dissatisfaction. The
Georgetown boys seemed assured OF
the section title until several teams
were thrown out on ineligibtlity
charges, and when the standings were
rearranged accordingly the Warwicks
were on almost even terms with the
Nationals.
AS the two teams stand now the
Nationals are credited with two vic
tories and no defeat, and the War
wicks have one win and one loss. Thus
a win today would give the section
championship to the Nationals, and a
victory for the Warwicks would
necessitate another game to decide
the title.
Sandlot fans who have followed the
midget series are hoping the Ma
tionals will stick to the finish. The
Georgetown youngsters have proved
to be a fighting young team, and 1t
was something of a surprise when
they baked at accepting an unlucky
break. The big game is scheduled
to be played on the Union Station
plaza field with Joe Handiboe umpir-
ing.
Gibralters and Emeralds will clash
tomorrow on the Union Station plaza
field in a game having important
bearing on the championship Of Sec
ton A of the unlimited class. A VIC
tory for the Gibralters would give
them the title and loss would create
a tie with the Westovers for first
place.
Favor Westovers.
This game also will be the play-off
of a tie and should be a hot battle.
A ruction arose between the Gibral-
tiers and Emeralds when they met
last, and it is known that the Emer-
aids, out of the race themselves, are
anxious to see the Westovers tri-
umph in the end over the Gibralters,
Two important contests are listed
for today in Section A Of the junior
class. The Aztecs, leading with four
straight wins, will take on the strong
Glover Club, which is third in the
standing, and the independents, sec
ond with four games won and one
lost. will meet the Park View team
at TenleytoWn. Thus, If the Aztecs
lose and the Independents win, the
latter will take the lead.

use this grip and so do many men
players who have short fingers.
, There is the two-V grip which IL
very useful and a great many good
amateurs use 1t. The club is held with
all fingers touching the shaft. the first
finger and thumb of both hands form

Then there is the interlocking gfsp.
This is made by interlocking the ittt,s
finger of the right with the first fin
ger of the left hand. With this grip
the thumb is not inside the right IAkn.

players who do not hit hard nsnouHh
with their right.
Some OF our best players putt THIS
way. Among them Is Walter Hagen,
who is regarded as a fine putter with
good control over the ball at ali times.
Then there is Walter j. Travis, than
whom there is none better. Travis has.
won many championships with his
putting. He adopted this style and
thinks there is no better one. Those
who putt with one hand commanding
will find this a good idea and well
worth giving trial.
There is no set way of holding a
club that would suit all golfers. In
general. the closer the hands are to-
gether the better. One of the worst
grips imaginable is to put the left
hand in front of the right. This Ia
preposterous, but nevertheless some
players do 1t and are regarded as fair
golfers.
An article was once written on the
Vardon grip explaining IL in detail,
but the printer made a mistae and 1t
read: 4M

right is overlapping the little finger
of the left" which. of course, would
be foolish, but some one wrote In and
said he had tried the new grip and
had never putted better in his life.

1t consists OF taking the club firm
ly in the left hand, gripping with
the fingers and permitting the thumb
to lie on top of the shaft, which will
allow 1t to nestle snugly In the palm
of the right hand. The right hand
takes hold OF the club with the first
three fingers, the little finger resting
on top of the first finger of the
left hand. The thumb and fore finger
are used as the principal means of
control The thumb is not on top of
the shaft, but slightly to the side.
IL you VIII take hold of the club in
this manner and practice with this
grip for while, you will begin to
realize the reasons for using 1t.
With the first finger and thumb.
one Is able to put the delicate touch
into the stroke. The first finger
leaves the others little and goes
forward to pinch the club, as IL were.
The idea Of overlapping with the lit
tie finger is to bring the hands as
close together as possible.
You cannot hold golf club the
same as you would a baseball bat.
The club and arms should be as
nearly onepiece as possible with the
hands and wrists serving as hinges.
Looking down on this grip from the
top, the knuckles of either hand
would hardly be in sight.
Vardon Adopted Grip.
This is the Vardon grip. out
strange to say it was not originated
by Harry. Few golfers know that
the first professional to use the
overlapping grip was Scotch player
named John Geddes. He had hands
so large that he could not manage
them on the handle of the club with.
out wrapping part Of the right hand
around the left.
He was not a great golfsr, but
played some in the open events. Var
don was the first player to notice
his peculiar style and Immediately
saw where IT would be of great bene.
fit to his game. He adopted chis
grip and stuck to II. Hence 1t was
called after him.
l am going to make a confession.
My grip IL not what you would call
the correct Vardon grip, but a va
ration of n. / overlap with two
| fingers instead OF one-otherwise il
is just the same. 1 do this because
my hands are rather large and 1 feel
that I can get enough of the right
hand on the club by using the fret
two fingers and the thumb. In fact,
II is really the first finger and the
thumb that is important.

to adopt my grip. nor the regulation
