Too much meat may produce uric acid, says a weH-known authority who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble.
 The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood Of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overworx; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire sys- tenn.
 When your kidneys ache and feel like Jumps of lead and you have stinging pains in the back, or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or the bladder is irritable, obiging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weath- CT, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a ta- blespoOnful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning. and in a few days your kidneys may act fine.

 Charles Ray has hit the buIl's-eye again with his latest production, "Smudge." a First National attraction which began a three-day engage ment at Polls Vaudeville theatre yesterday. It is a picture such as only Ray could make, for it is a tale of small town life, similar to those in which Ray made his reputation as a screen artist of rare talent.

RIGGS IS AFTER THEPATEG0NIAN
 PLESI0SAURUS

Buenos Aires, Dec. 22-tBy A. P.) Before Pof. EIme S. Riggs. q Chi cago paieontologist, sailed fo Pata- ecn1a today on a fossil hunting eX- petition fo the Field Museum he was informed by Prof. ClemenIe OnelIi, director of the Buenos Aires geological garden that reports of a plesi OsauruS were still being received from the territory of Chubut, despite the failure of a group of Argentine scientists to find the prehistoric ere ature last spring.
 If I meet that plesiosaurus," said Prof. Riggs to Prof. Onelli, 'EIu put a lariat around his neck and lead him direct to the Buenos Aires ZOO"
 The Chicagoan visited the Argen- tine palentologist and heard from him the story of Patagonia's mon ster, listening with interest to the the Andean lake region, where the creature was supposed to have been seen. Prof. Riggs, said that the data was very interesting, but that 1t could not tempt him from his fossil hunt. The plans for his expedition, he as- serted, were still too indefinite to al- low him to state whether he would visit the reputed haunts of plesi4- aurus.
 Prof. Oneiln explained that name pleslosaurus was a misnomer and that the creature he still believed alive in the Patagonia wiIds is prob
 
 sloths.
 Prof. Riggs and his companions will sail to Rio GaI1egos, from which place they will proceed northward on horseback to search along the coast or the territory of Santa Cruz for fossils of the Noocene period, which are known to exist there. Prof. Riggs said he expected to find the small fossilized ancestors Of the glyp- todon, which reached a gigantic size IT the pleistocene period.
 The expedition will probably re- main in that section during. the en- tire southern summer, and will then proceed northward and into the in terior in search for pleistorcene specimens The scientists plan to remain in Argentina for year and a half.
 Prof. Riggs expressed regret that he had no opportunity to view the remains of the dinosaur with nine foot thigh bones. which explorers of the La Platta museum are recently reported to have unearthed.

 Jack Holt and Dorothy Dalton ap- pear in the picture, he as the stoker and she as the spoiled daughter Of society, and even Uncle Sam has helped to make the picture as some of his battleShips and sailors parade across the screen. Only, the naval officers in the picture did not appear very real and some one ought to in form the moving piscture directors that it is quite as incumbent upon an officer to return an enlisted man s salute as it for the latter to salute.

PARK.

A real daughter of Bridgeport, known to the theatrical world as l Grace Goodale, will make her debut to her home town folks as the prima donna of "The Monte Carlo Girls, V when that premier show of the Mu- tual burlesque corcuit opens at the Park theatre on Christmas after l noon. Miss Goodale is known to hundreds who attended the Elias Howe school with her ten years ago, and several after-theatre parties have been scheduled for the week that she will be in town with the Monte Car To Girls"
 Miss Goodale has achieved her present prominent position by sheer merit, having worked herself up to one of the principal parts, from place in the chorus. Her voice and her feminine charms are features that have scored heavily for the show wherever it has. played this season Sl-e will have able support from the other female principals. Violet Buck ley, the Venus Of the Stage, and an ether far famed entertainer. who af this time must remain unnamed.
 Tommy Burns and Willie Mack are
 the comedy team who will lead 'The Monte Carlo Girls in their venture to prove to Bridgeport tf1az ztre-goers that the Park theatre from now on will merit the designation as Bridge ports Fun Center" Burns and Mack will present the same dialect side splitter that so thoroughly pleased President Harding at a private enter tainment in Washington several weeks ago. A couple of dark clouds who will spread joy, rather than the gloom that might be expected of clouds, are Easton and Stuart. A novelty which they will introduce is jazz on the organ, the first time an organ has been used on the stage for such purposes.
 The Monte Carlo Girls will remain in Bridgeport for a week, assuring the Park for an enthusiastic reopen ong under the new management. Pop 1Iar prices will prevail. the highest price being seventy-five cents. which includes all taxes.

He thought he mur- dered man back in his sleepy Mis- souri town and dashed madly across he border into Arkansas. Right then he became an involuntary citi- zen of a lawless domain and the un- willing servant of a man who ruled violent men in this little mountain kingdom by the sheer strength of brutality. What a mistake the out laws made in taking this young out- slider for "a likely candida e.

The dramatic tale. however, is em- bellished with many touches of typical Ray humor. The story, which was written by Rob Wagner, popular Saturday Evening Post author, fits Ray to a nicety. and competent dt- rection Is visible throughout the en- tire iphotoplay.
