QUIT MEAT IF YOUR
KIDNEYS ACT BADLY
Take tablespoonful of Salts if
Back hurts or Bladder bOthers
Drink lots of water.

We are a 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
singing pains in the back or the
urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or
the bladder is irritable, obliging you
to seek relief during the night; when
you have severe heada aches, 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 glass of water be-
fore breakfast each morning and in
a few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys to neutraliZe the acids
in urine so it is no longer a source of
irritation, thus ending urinary and
bladder disorders.
.Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
inture: makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia water drink, and nobody
can make a mistake by taking little
occasionally to keep the kidneys clean
and active-AdYertise

chial asthma.

MORAN is CHANCE
Carpenter Looks With Favor
on Match cover There"
Richard Declares Half Million
Purse Still Holds Good.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.

New York, March 1o.-The purse
of half a million dollars offered for
the Dempsey-Carpentier fight, still
holds good.
Tex Richard said today he had put
no proposition to the principals to
work on a percentage basis.
when Carpenter comes to this
country, will talk it over with him
and may offer it as a suggestion"
Richard said.
The Frenchman probably will not
return to America until the first of
May as the agreement requires both
principles to be on the scene sixty
days before the bout.
Frank Moran is still bounding the
Frenchman for a match and there is
a lot of sentiment over there in his
favor since he took the step to fistic
greatness-on the PROSTATE neck of
Joe Beckett.
IF the uncertainty over the big
match continues, we will give Moran a
fight" Descamps said.
However, as long as there is a
chance to collect that 100000 purse
or the forfeit of Tex Richard, the wise
ones on the other side do not expect
Carpenter to give Moran or any other
fighter any more than the chance to
take good look at him.

SUFFERS THIRD DEFEAT
Baker Forward Snatches Victory From
Washburn in Last Minute.

Baldwin, Kan, March 10.-Baker
university basketball team defeated
Washburn college here last night, "a
to 23, in a rousing finish when Potts,
Baker forward, shot a goal from the
center of the court in the last half
minute of play.
The game was replete with thrills
from beginning to end. Neither team
was able to connect with the basket
with any frequency
Baker led at the end of the first
half, IL to 9. Coach Dwight Ream. s
men came back strong at the begin
ming of the second half, and succeeded
in getting the ball thru the ring three
times before the Methodists were able
to get together.
The inability of the Ichabods to
count on free throws lost them the
game.
Butell, Baker forward and captain,
registered ten out of fourteen attempts
at free throws. He was the individual
star of the game, getting sixteen out
of the twenty-four points scored by the
MethodistS.
Stevens was the star for the Blues,
making six goals. Brewster was up to
his usual form at guard.
This is the third defeat for Wash
burn this week, having dropped two
games to the Pittsburg Normals Mon
day and Tuesday night.

HIGH CHURCH DIGNITARlES
VISIT DENVER.

the past week in having within her
gates two very distinguished clergy
! men of our racial group. Bishop w. \.
Fountain of the A. NJ L. church con
nection, and presiding over the 18th
Episcopal District appeared at Shorter
church last Sunday morning and de-
livered one of the most powerful ser
mons heard here in long time. The
church was crowded to the doors and
many were turned away who gathered
to hear his wonderful message. AT
the evening service another large
crowd gathered to hear Bishop Foun-
tain lecture on South America and the
West Indies. The lecture proved an
intellectual feast to all who heard 1t.
Bishop l. B. Scott, IL noted churchman
in the NJ. Il. church connection, was
the big figure ut Scott NJ. E. church
Sunday morning. And here scenes al
most identical to those mt Shorter
prevailed. A very large crowd gath
| Scott church was named. His sermon
was revelation of logic and deep re-
| ligious fervor. In some way word
was passed out that the Bishop would
lecture at the evening service, but this
proved mistake, as it was necessary
for him to be in Colorado Springs.
| However he returned TO Denver Mon
day and delivered a pleasing lecture
Monday night.
Mrs. Ida Carrie left last Sunday
morning for Chicago, after ii pleasant
summers visit in Denver. She goes

LEAVING DENVER.

DIR. Frank S. Reed, long associated

leave for Chicago Saturday morning,
September "a, 1921, to reside perma-

has been fitting himself for number
of years. He will be missed in many
different circles, as he stands high in
the Masonic order, also in his profess
sion as licensed embalmer, and as Il
good citizen in general. As an evidence
of the affectionate regard in which he
is held by his Masonic brothers, about
thirty members of the knights Tenn

DIR. Reed will be valuable contribu-
ton to any city where he may cast
his lot. We deeply regret his leaving
Denver, but if his going means an en-
try into the larger life of usefulness,
where he can minister more fully to his
fellow man, we bid to him and his de-
voted family-God speed.
