| WORLD FLIGHT IS
DELAYED AS SHIP
| REFUSES TO RISE
Water Damages Instru-
ments-Wiu Take OFF
Sunday Morning.

Seattle, WASH, April 5.--America' 8
round-the-world flyers did not resume
their perilous voyage from Seattle TO-
day.
After all four planes had TAXED
through the water for the take-Off,
the airplane of Maj. Frederick L..
Martin, commanding the flight, be-
came damaged. Six attempts to get the
plane off the water into the air failed
and Major Martin called the flight off
for the day.
The planes then TAXED back to the
landing. Spray thrown by the pro.
peller on Martins plane so damaged
his controls and motor that it was
impossible to get into the air, he said.
Arriving ashore, the major declared
the damage to his airplane is slight
but that it would be impossible to get
away before Sunday.
1--WE will start tomorrow morning
if weather conditions permit" Major
Martin said.
At 40 q. m. the planes, which had
been circling around after having been
launched in the water from Sand
Point, began to taxi back to the moor
ing buoys. Originally built for take
offs from land, the planes had been
fitted with pOntoons and had become
seaplanes for their flight over the sea.
Mechanics suggested that one diff
Guilty with Major Martins ship was
that he had taken on too heavy a
load of gasoline. They plan to put on
a lighter load tomorrow morning.

Tributes to
Ex-President

Thomas r. Marshall. Vice Presi
dent OF the United States during the
eight years Woodrow Wilson was
President, today paid tribute to his
chief as follows:
Although the death OF President
Wilson was not unexpected, II never.
theless came with as great a force of
sorrow as though 1t had been sudden.
He had so endeared himself to millions
Of Americans they felt the loss as
though 1t were personal. Construc-
tive before the war, patient before
getting into 1t, courageous and fear
less while pursuing 1t, yet all the
while speaking peace he was the most
conspicuous figure OF his time Time
alone can render Justice to his mo-
tives and conduct. May he sleep we'll
and may America remember him!
Senator Samuel M. Ralston: Wood
row Wilson was one of the best. IL
not the best equipped man for the
presidency OF the United States ever
elected. He had T. his credit more
constructive and progressive legisla-
ton than can be credited to the Ad-
ministratiOn of any other President.
His vision swept the very outskirts
of the world and no people were so
oppressed or so remote from his own
country as not to have a place in his
affection. This and his international
achievements caused him to be looked
upon as the worlds greatest champion
of human liberty.
No other man ever exercised an up
lifting influence comparable to his
with the nations Of the earth and II
was quite consistent therefore, with
the living truth, that he should be
hailed as "the first citizen of the
world The cruel and inhuman efforts
on the part of some of his country
men to humiliate him and to deprive
him of the honor he Justly earned
by the service which he rendered
mankind will neither dim the lustre
of his fame nor deprive> him of the
first place in history"

FLUSH THE KIDNEYS
BEFORE BREAKFAST

No man or woman can make a mis-
take by flushing the kidneys occasion
ally, says a wellknown authority. Eat
ing too much rich food creates acids,
which excite the kidneys. They be.
come overworked from the strain, get
sluggish and fail to filter the waste
and poisons from the blood. Then we
get sick rheumatism, headaches,
liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness,
sleeplessness and urinary disorders
often come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache In
the kidneys, or your back hurts, or II
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full Of
sediment, irregular OF passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding,
begin drinking q quart of water each
day, also get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast, and in a few days
your kidneys may act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and semon juice, COM
bined with Hthia, and has been used
for years to flush and stimulate the
kidneys; also to help neutralize the
acids in the system. so they no longer
cause irritation, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia-water
drink which everyone should take now
and then to help keep the Kidneys
clean and active and the blood pure
thereby often avoiding serious kid
ney complications. BY all means have
your physician examine your kfdneys
at least twice a year-Advortisem
