partly because the horse was owned

Drugs Excite
the Kidneys,
Drink Water
Take Salts at First Sign of
Bladder Irritation or
Backache

The American men and women must
guard constantly against kidney trouble
because we often eat too much rich food.
Our blood is filled with acids which the
kidneys strive to filter out; they weaken
from overwork, become sluggish, the
eliminative tissues clog and the result
a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like humps
of lead; your back hurts or the urine
is cloudy, full Of sediment, or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache, or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or if you have rheumatism
when the weather is bad, begin drink
ing lots of good soft water and get from
your pharmacist about four ounces OF
Jad Salts. Take a 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, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used for
years to help flush and stimulate clogged
kidneys, to neutralize the acids in the
system so they no longer are source
OF irritation, thus often relieving blad-
der disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in
iure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-waterAdrink and belongs in every
home, becaEe nobody can make a mis-
take by having a good kidney flushing
any time. By all means have your ply
sician examine your kidneys at least
twice a year,

ITALIAN MINISTER FAVORS
WAR DEBT CANCELLATION

ROME, December 3. - There IS
nothing on Italy's conscience should
we net pay America our debts,
said Signor Schanzer, former for
eign minister and minister of fl
nance, to The Associated Press cor
respondent in discussing al article
which he wrote for Echie Com
menti, advocating cancellation OF
the debts. I'VE contributed IN
blood; America in money. Ours was
contribution which could not be
counted in money
If America should make US a
present of our debts and withdraw
her accounts against us, she would
leave nothing for which we would
have regret, and we would not lose
our self-respect, for our contribu-
ton has been dearly paid for in hui
man sacrifices, not to be calculated
in dollars"
Sienor Schanzer cited Major Gen
eral Tasker N. Bliss, Prof. Selig-
man and William G. McAdoo in
support of his contentious. He re-
ferred to Mr.. McAdoo's report in
1918, in which the latter said the
war would be prolonged if Amer
lea didn't make money loan.

KING TUT TREASURE
HAS RARE JEWELS

LUXOR, Egyph, Dec. 3. - (By
Associated Press. Six more SHOW
eases containing rare and beaui
full treasures from Tutankhamen's
tomb have just been added to the
collections of seven cases already
on display in the Cairo museum,
giving visitors and admirable idea
OF the artistry of the eigh' zenith
dynasty craftsmen.
Probably the finest piece in the
collection, of which almost every
object is masterpiece, is the
pharaoh's little jewel box of solid
ivory, yellowed with age, with
knobs, hinges and feet of solid gold
inscribed on the front of the king S
name and one back with the lotus
symbol of upper Egypt
Also of interest are the king
buckles, of open work sheet gold,
with scenes inlaid in tiny golden
granules, representing process
said to be unknown today, while the
gold pendants, scarabs and bezel:
are exquisitely carved.
There are a number of signet
rings and amulets, and four torch
holders of bronze and gold. In one
of these holders the wick of twist
ed linen is still in position in the
I oil cup.
One of the cases contains a col
lection of green or blue glaze drink
ing cups and vessels, the latte
shaped like modern teapots.

CUBS May SIGN
KID GLEASON To
VIE WITH CHANCE.
Situation Unusual To See Chance
Heading Sox and Gleason
With Cubs

CHICAGO, Dec. 3.-The singing
of Frank Chance to lead the Chica-
go White Sox is unquestionably bid
for popular favor along sentimental
lines.
Chance, former manager of the
Chicago Cubs in days when he was
winning pennants and world series,
was the idol of Chicago.
The White Sox, under -Glea-
son, finished in seventh place last
seascn. The showing of the team
was a distinct disappointment. Pres
tige waned because the Cubs had a
big year.
Only the defeat Of the Cubs in the
city series enabled the Sox to keep
their heads above water.
Kid Gleason resigned at the close
of the series. 1t said Kid beat the
Club to the punch that Owner
Comiskey had intended to release
him. The passing of Gleason didn't
make hit with South Side fairs
with whom he was very popular.
The latest rumor is that Gleason
is to manage the Chicago Cubs. 1t
is said the National League intends
making such move to counteract
sny prestige that might come the
Sox's way because of the singing Of
Chance.
1t would be an unusual situation
to have Chance at the head of the
Sox and Gleason leading the Cubs.

COAST GUARD CUTTER
To SEARCH FOR SALT
Explore Atlantic Ocean To Find
How Salt The Seas Are;
Unique Apparatus Used
WASHINGTON, December 5

WASHINGTON, December 3. =
(By Associated Press -The old
question of how salt in the ocean is
may soon be answered. Coast guard
cutters are to make surveys Of
various parts of the North Allan
tic for salt content, and additional
data on ocean currents is expected
to be gained, as different currents
are said to differ appreciably in the
amornt of salt they contain.
The bureau Of standards has de-
veloped unique apparatus which
) will be used in the survey, and pre-
liminary trials have already indi-
Gated it will be successful It
takes advantage of the fact that
electrical resistance of seawater
changes markedly with change in
salt content. A cell in the instru-
n7ent is first filled with water
whose salt content is knoTn, and
tfen with sample OF the water to
be tested. The difference in the
two electrical resistance readings
taken is a measure of the differ
ence in salt.
The salt Of the seas varies cor
siderable with location, it was said
For instance the Gulf stream, which
has been exposed to the hot tropic
sun will have lost much water
through evaporation and will be
saltier than the Labrador Current,
which is fed by fresh water from
the ice and SHOWS of Greenland.
1t is also thought that salinity
measurements at considerable
depths might be used, under ex-
ceptionally favorable conditions.
The cold water from them is appre-
ciably fresher than the water on the
surface, yet, being cold, it sinks to
the bottom. The water on the
surface is the water of the cur
rent, and may be surprisingly warm
even quite close to the berg. At one
time men of the crew of the Rev
anue Cutter Tampa went swimming
almost in the surf of large ice
berg and found the water had a
temperature Of 70 degrees.
