IF KIDNEYS AND c BLADDER. BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Out
 Your Kidneys and Neutralize Irritating Acids

Kidney and Bladder weakness re- suit from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often re- mains to irritate and inflame, caus- ing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times dur ling the night, The sufferer is :n constant dread, the water passes sometimes with scalding sensa- tion and is very profuse; again, ther is difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they cant control urination. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very pain full, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take a table spoonful in glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is source of irritation to the blad- der and urinary organs which then act normally again.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, tand is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irri- tation. lad Salts is splendid for the kidneys and causes no bad ef- fleets whatever.
 Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent lithia-water drink, which quick ly relieves bladder trouble.

METROS MElODRAMA HAS TENSE APPEAl

A photoplay rich in humanness and tight with suspense is Should a Woman Tell?" which began it's To- cal showing at the Coliseum theatre last evening. Splendidly enacted this new Metro play with Alice Lake Jack Mulhall and Frank Currier heading an all-star cast grips the heart as only well-done melodrama. founded on the big things in human nature, can grip.
 As Meta Maxon, the fisher girl whose conscience bade her bare to the man she loved the secret of her youth and whose worldly wisdom counselled the security of silence, Alice Lake has given performance even more capa ble than her portrayal of Norah Blake, with Bert Lytell in "Lombardi, Ltd" No less pleasing were Jack Mulhall who gave a man. ly, straightforward and genuinely unaffected portrayal of the artist lover. and Frank Currier, the veteran of the stage and screen, whose work has made for him a legion of gen nine friends.

CHURCH OBSERVES
ALL SAINTS DAY

All Saints Day Is being observed in
Catholic. Episcopaiian and, to some
extent. in Lutheran churches today.
Among Catholics It is a holy day
OF obligation in which all are oblig-
ed to hear mass. All paroehial
schools arc closed.
The feast is 20 honor all the saints
known and unknown. In the early
Christian days. a martyrs death was
solemnized by the anniversary OF his
or her death at the place OF the
martyrdom. Oftentimes a number
OF martyrs suffered on the same day.
which gave rise TO joint observances.
In the reign OF the Roman En-
peror Djocletian. the number Of mar
tyrs became so great that a separate
day could not be assigned 70 each.
The Church. therefore, appointed a
COM mon day for the commemora-
tion II all OF them.
Halloween gets its name from tho
fact that Il Is the eve OF All Hal
lows OF All Saints.
Tomorrow will be All Souls Day
when Requiem Masses for the dead
will be celebrated in all Catholic
churches.
