try where they lived, John carried
only his bow while Bob had his rife.
Yet frequently John would come back
with as much small game as Bob had.
Then came the time when Johns bow
saved the lives OF the two boys sven
though Bob had his gun along.
They had gone off together on a
camping trip into the woods to be
gone three weeks. They padded to
their destination In Bob's canoe. max
ing their camp on the shores of
Crater Lake. There they spent n
pleasant week hunting and fishing.
Then they decided to explore the IAN
yon of the Green River. a rough,
turbulent stream reached by a por-
tase of five miles from Crater Lake.
The canyon was passable for a
canoe but 1t took a mighty good noe
ma to make the trip. John and Bob
knew this but they were young and
adventurous and perhaps a little too
proud of their skill In a canoe. Any
how. they had not been guiding their
frail craft for long on the roaring
current OF the Green River before
they wished they had not tried it.
But 1t vas too late to back out.
They were plunging along at ace
horse speed between high stone walls
and there was no stopping or turning
back. So they kept up their courage
and strained every muscle to guide
their craft clear Of the rocks and
prevent 1t from being whiried about
and capsized.
All went we'll until they entered the
Funnel. This was a part of the can
o where the river had cut a deep
and narrow slit at the bottom of its

The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood In "A hours they strain from it 300 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital impor tance of keeping the kidneys active.
 Drink lots of water-you can't drink too much; also get from any phar macist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast each morning for 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 years to help clean and stimulate clogged kidneys also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink, which every one should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active.

 The lawyer reunited loving couple by advising the husband to go home and give his wife a scoldlng for her unexplained absences. Bob Milton, young artist. loved lnga Sonderson, a model. so much that he does not believe he is worthy of her But his trust was not sufficient to encompass the fact that he saw her entering mans apartment with her arms around the man himself, in the early hours of a morning.
 The reason for this situation, with the events leading up to it and how Inga and Bob both found happiness, is the story told by Norma Talmadge in "The Woman Gives" which will be the attraction at the Coliseum Theater Sunday and Monday.

 Rupert Hughes has shown his in genuity in making his Cinderella a wall flower. She is just that. No. body loves her She is only a have wonderful times. The reallza- ton comes to her that she is only the sport of her fricnds-and that is tragedy. Nevertheless. there are others who discern the swan in the ugly duckling, and through their eff forts change the rough brown feath CTS to smooth white ones. And. as in the fairy tale, the prince comes to claim his princess, and they live happily ever after
 'The Wall Flower" was difficult picture to cast. It required a lead ing woman vino could disguise herself to look plain" who could portray comedy perfectly and who could also reveal the tragedy of a broken heart Fortune smiled when MT. Hughes who directed the photographing oi his picture, selected Colleen Moore to play the wall flower. Her per formance is triumph in technical skill and in emotional depth.
