Globe lrotters of
Palatka Pass Over
Big Panama Canal

The Cunard liner "Laconia," MAX
ing cruise around the world, under
the auspices of the American Ex-
press Company, has just passed
through the Panama canal, says a
cable from the ships captain, at Pa
mama, and the steamer is now on her
way to San francisco.
JalGtka is represented by Mr.. and
Mrs, Howell A. Davis and Miss
Omar Davis, who are, making the
world tour.
Although the ship is $40 feet long
and 70 feet wide, the Captains mes
sage says there was plenty of room
for her in the huge locks that lifted
the Laconia stage by stage on the
Colon side of the canal until she was
over eighty feet above the level of
the sea, and later lowered her on me
other side stage by stage until she
slipped into the Pacific ocean, the
first Cuanrder TO receive such bap-
tism. The Laconia is said to be the
largest passenger ship to have pass
ed through the canal. The locks are
1000 feet long, ITO feet wide and So
feet deep, big enough to accommo-
late the Aquitania or BerengaTia.
Passing through the canal gave
brill to the charm of the cruise. All
he passengers were on deck, with
he bands playing, and the younger
MEMBERS of the cruise dancing.
EASING through Culebra Cut, with
he mountain towering up on one side
nd high bank on the other was a

If Kidneys Act
Bad Take Salts
Says Backache often means you
have been eating too
much meat.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it may
mean you have been eating too much
meat, says q well-known authority. An
excess OF meat may form uric acid,
which overworks the kidneys in their
effort to filter it from the blood, and
they become sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog, you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels, removing all the
D0dys urinOus waste, else you have
bdckache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad YOU have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy,
full OF sediment, channels often get sore,
water sealds, and you are obliged to
seek relief two or three times during the
night.
Either consult good, reliable ply
stefan at once, or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts
take tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and
your kidneys may then 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 sluggish kidneys, /
also to neutralize acids in the urine /
so it no longer irritates, thus often |
ending bladder weakness.
