has been necessarily postponed until
later in the month of January. Be-
cause of the fact that the club has
been so taken up with the recen

LESS MEAT # BACK
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Take a glass of Salts to flush Kdneys
if Bladder bothers you-Drink
lots of water

Eating meat regularly eventually pro.
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says well-known authority, be
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backAche and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid.
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get. about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
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 ithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine 80 it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful efferveseent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

HYACINTH MENACE
SOLVED IN LOUISIANA
LIVE STEAM WILL BE USED
TO KILL PLANTS THAT ARE
CHOKING BAYOUS.

NEW ORLEANS.-After nineteen
years of expensive and laborious effort,
with only varying success, interested
shipping interests and government ex-
perts now express the belief that a
method has been found that will solve
the problem of the water hyacinth that
is choking practically every bayou IN
the state with its green and lavender
floral magnihcence.
The new method, which was sug
gested by Governor John M. Parker,
is the simple application OF live steam.
Preliminary reports from experiments
now under way, according to govern
ment agents, indicate that the govern
or has at least pointed a way to check,
if not exterminate, the plant that has
proved such a menace to Louisiana S
inland waterways for the last twenty
years and which, according to gov
eminent observers, is now threatening
the fresh water portion OF the Panama
canal.
The water hyacinth appeared in
Louisiana Immediately after the Cot
ton Centennial exposition here in 1884.
The plant, which is native OF South
America, was exhibited at the fair, and
its beauty was greatly admired. At the
close Of the fair a number OF plants
were taken to the country districts for
growth in garden pools. When they
over crowded the pools they were
thrown into nearby bayous, where they
caused heavy losses by choking the
bayous and streams to such an extent
that small vessels could not make their
way through the tangled masses OF
foliage for miles and miles with no
break Of channel through them.
From beautiful curiosity in 1884
they became a decided menace in 1896
and had so clogged number of the
streams that an appeal was made TO
congress for relief, and in 1899 SIS
900 was appropriated for the purpose
Of determination. Since then hundreds
Of thousands Of dollars have been spent
in the fight.
Today there is hardly a stream in
Louisiana that does not become so
clogged with the hyacinth that navi-
cation is almost impossible in the
summer months.

What Is Thrown
Out by a Volcano

A volcano-1et us say Stromboli,
which Just now is making a lot Of
trouble-ejects materials Of various
kinds.
One of these is water. 1t is the last
thing we should expect a burning
mountain to produce, but, as a matter
of fact, volcanoes vomit enormous
Quantities of water, formed by the
cooling and consequent condensation
OF gases rising through the vent pipe.
Volcanic dust, thrown high into the
air during an eruption is so finely di-
vided that much OF it will float in the
upper levels of the atmosphere for
years. Its particles seem mostly to be
minute bubbles, hollow inside.
Together with water volcanoes emit
vast quantities of mud which, harden
ing into rock, form what is called fluff
"a friable material which in parts of
our own west covers great areas to a
depth of thousands of feet.
A familiar volcanic product is pun
ice, which is so porous, and therefore
so light in weight, that it will float on
water. Another is obsidian, or vol
canic glass;" a substance of the same
chemical composition as pumice, but
extremely hard, being OF high density.
Typical Of the ''eruptive" rocks, rep
resenting material thrown up from the
depths, is granite. Such rocks are prac-
tically impervious to water, whereas
the sedimentary rocks-sandstones,
limestones and shales-are sufficiently
porous to allow water to percolate
through them. 1t is these sedimentary
rocks that contain the so-called pools
of petroleum, usually with water un-
derlying the oil

'Delmonico Jimmy"
Heart Disease Victim
Famous Doorman in Beaver Cafe Is
Said to Have Made a Million.

Said to Have Made a Million.
NEW YORK-Known for years to
thousands as "Delmomco Jimmy"
James w. Hebron doorman of Del
monico's Beaver street cafe, was bur
led yesterday. He died on Friday of
heart disease.
"Delmonico Jimmy" is said to have
made a million dollars while employed
at the famous restaurant. Born in Ros-
common, Ireland, 6S years ago, he
came to Cincinnati, o., in 1883. Four
years later he came to work at the res
taurant at 81 day, but found that his
daily receipts of tips far exceeded his
pay, and investments on the stock
market eventually bore results.
In time the doorman started cab
business with one horse and later own
ed three big livery stables. In 1913 he
sued Miss Josephine Delmonico, as
heir of her brother, Charles c. Del
monico for $4,214 cab fare, and lit
tie later sued Frank Work for $1,000
alleged to be due on stock transac-
ton.
