EDGAR LEWIS ADVENTURE TALE

"LahOma," the Edgar LeWiS-Pathe
feature at the Liberty Theatre Sun
day is a colorful, vivid, adventurous
drama of the early days in Oklahoma
the last state to be admitted to the
Union. Oklahoma placed it's star in
the American Flag on November 16,
1907, and as short a time as 1889 it
was thrown open to homeseekers.
That was wonderful day. Thous-
ands of prospective settlers collected
along the border of the new land, and
at twelve o'clock, at given signal,
the race began for land claims.
John Breckenridge Ellis, in writing
'Lahoma," chose these early history
making days for his locale. 1t is a
story of boomers" homeseekers, In
dams, outlaws and cowboys. 1t is
crammed to the brim with daring adj
venture and dangerous deeds, a pretty
little romance weaving the whole to-
gether.
To little Peaches Jackson and
Louise Burnham fall the role of "La
homa," who grows from babyhood to
beautiful young girlhood in the story
Russell Simpson, Jack Perrin, Will
Jefferis, Wade Boteler and many
9th ,ers keep the action moving at
swift pace.

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 headaches, nervous
and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid
tomach or rheumatism in bad weather
get from your pharmacist about four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in few
days your kidneys will 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 flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys, to neutralize the
acids in urine so it is no longer a
source of irritation, thus ending urin-
airy and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes delightful effer-
vescent lithia water drink, and no.
body can make a mistake by taking
a little occasionally to keep the kid
neys clean and active.

Expression of Sympathy

Mrs. Andrew G. Anderson and family:
Any consolation that can be afford

MEAT

We are nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
a well-known authority, who warns
us to be constantly on our guard
against kidney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.

Turks Alone at Lausanne.

IsMET Pasha and his party OF
Kemalist delegates composed the only
delegation which arrived yesterday
at Lausanne to take part in the Near
East conference. The date for the
meeting, November Is, was fixed, after
the Mudania truce, and even though
the discussion of its real purpose
might be postponed until after re-
cess it was believed that the confer
ence would open yesterday. The
French place the responsibility OF the
delay upon the British Government,
which requested postponement un-
til November 27. The British insist
on a preliminary meeting Of the al
lied Powers and a clear statement OF
the position which they will take at
the conference.
The changes which have come in
the Near East since the Mudania
treaty have increased the gravity of
the situation there. The Kemalists
are now practically in possession of
Constantinople and the peril to for
eigners remaining there has caused
the allied commission to remove resi-
dents of allied nationalities from
the city and it's vicinity as rapidly as
possible. General HARRINGTON frankly
reports that his position Is menaced
by both Kemalist regular troops and
by an uprising of the Moslem popula-
tion OF Stamboul.
The ports of the Black Sea and
the Egean Sea are already crowded

The Oldest Circus Ring.
Credited to Willimantic, 1t Has just
Been -Plowed Up.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Tho
passing OF what was probably the old
est circus ring In America took place
when a field at 81 Natchaug street was
plowed last week for the first time In
mora than a third. OF a century. 1t
seems almost incredible that a circus
ring should withstand the ravages of
time and the encroachments Of tene-
ment houses for thirty-hve years. but
Willimantic had such q curiosity up to
last week.
In a vacant lot between Adelbert and
Natchaug streets stood in a fair state
OF preservation the main exhibition ring
of the r. T. Barnum show that was
here June 81 1887. The rings at that
time were made by excavating the CEN
ter Of the ring and banking It. leaving
permanent circular mound thirty feet
in diameter. In this ring the famous
elephant Jumbo whose skeleton is now

A little TO the east was the tank in

Straits of Our Merchant Marine.

1t Is Chairman LAsKER of the
United States Shipping Board who de-
clares that under the Daugherty dry
ruling American passenger ships can
not stay in business in competition
with foreign ships. 1t is Chairman
LAsKER furthermore, who maintains
that in such circumstances even
American freight ships cannot stay
In business because cargo carriers
follow passenger carriers to success
or failure. He may be right about
this or he may be wrong, but his
stand has very direct and signifi-
cant bearing on Shipping Board
affairs.
When, therefore, the new Shipping
Board regulations enjoin Government
owned vessels from transferring their
registry so as to be on even terms
with foreign ships in respect of dry
and wet conditions, or when the new
regulations fix perpetually binding
contract on an American ship never
TO transport liquors into this coun-
try, no matter who subsequently owns
that ship--when the new regulations
clap such a condition on American
ships it is in order to ask what
chance the Shipping Board thinks
there is to get private companies to
take over the vast fleet of Govern
ment owned ships, the great bulk OF
which are now tied up in idleness.
Sane business men do not banker
after that kind of bargain; they run
away from it.
The United States Government
makes no secret of it's desire to get
rid of all its vessels. That is the
very purpose of the proposed ship
subsidy. Private shipping interests
will not buy them, private shipping
interests will not lease them to op-
crate at heavy loss. The Govern
ment, however, although enormously
overstocked with idle ships, has
hoped that a liberal subsidy scheme
would induce private shipping inter-
ests to take it's white elephant ves-
sells off it's hands.
But who is going to touch ship
bound forever in straitjacket regu-
lations to condition which the
chairman of the Shipping Board
himself says absolutely prevents 1t
from getting business?
II the ships cannot get the business
Congress is not likely to listen to
suggestion to pour millions of sub
sidy into a project which according
to the Shipping Board chairman
must fail anyhow. And in such a
predicament there would be nothing
left for the Government to do as good
business conduct except to get free of
the huge cost Of maintaining useless
ships that could not be sold, could not
be leased and could not be given
away-get free of so insupportable
burden of expense and loss by towing
them out to sea, If necessary, and
sinking them to the bottom.
Is that what the Shipping Board
row anticipates? II so we compli-
ment the Shipping Board.

Three Men of Versailles.

The greatest three figures of the
Versailles conference, three men who
have fallen from power since peace
was made, are still talking to the
public. But each surveys the world
from a different angle.
Mr.. WILSON'S mind is on the past.
His Armistice Day speech was visit
full, breathing regret that those ideals
which he advocated so strongly had
never become realities. 1t might be
thought from what he said that he
believed that the beaten issue Of 1920
was still an issue in 1922.
Mr.. LLOYD GEORGES mind Is on the
present, for he is fighting. He does
not neglect the past, for 1t is useful
to him. He offers it to England, this
very positive past of his, as some
thing preferable to the rather mega
tive future which his opponents hold
out But his battle is Of to-day.
Mr.. CLEMENcEAU's mind is on the
future. The past, he says frankly,
has never meant much to him. He
braves the winter sea to come to the
United States to create state of
mind for future negotiations"
1t Is rather strange that the one
man Of the three who has reached
the age of reminiscence is the one
who refuses to deal with anything
but the future.

Mathematics of Rent.
Perhaps the Standard OIL Made
Money Instead Of Losing.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: The
Standard Oil lease is causing among
your correspondents who attribute to the
company an enormous loss through the
decision of the court that the quarterly
rent was payable In advance as much
confusion of thought as 1t did among
the mathematician mentioned in the
news articles, who calculated a loss OF
$500, 900.
It was my original contention that,
judgment having been rendered In favor
of the landlord, the Standard OIL Com
pany must now pay just one installment
in respect to which II has been 'in ar
rears since the beginning of the term,
and pay interest thereon to date Of pay
ment, and also bear the cost of the
litigation. 1t is an absurdity to carry
the interest. along and compound It for
the whole term of the lease. because
installments replace one another.
Unless the matter is held in allegiance
by an appeal the company will pay UP
and further losses will cease.
There Is another aspect OF the matter
in respect to which / might argue that
the Standard Oil Company Is really
ahead of the game. Has 1t not kept
the landlord waiting all this time for
ss2,5o0 which it has had invested in its
business and undoubtedly earning
enough in excess OF the legal rate OF
interest to pay moro than the cost Of
the lawsuit?
The increment from the money SO in
vested In a profitable business might be
compounded, not merely at the legal
rate of interest but at it's earning
power In the business, and would con-
stitute q considerable offset to the enor-
nous loss which one correspondent cal
culated at almost 80 per cent. of the
entire rent of s24,750,0oo.
