 And still they say women can't do things because they are not economical ly independent-tha they have to get the money from the men and the men won't give it to them for their feminine doings Yet the women at the white breakfast were certainly mostly wOm- en of leisure fer whom men are pay ing the bills.

Have Kidneys
Examined By
Your Doctor
Take Salts to Wash Kidneys If
Back Pains You or Bladder
Bothers

Flush your kidneys by drinking a
quart of water each day, also take salts
occasionally, says noted authority, who
tells us that too much rich food forms
acids which almost paralyze the kidneys
in their efforts to expel it from the
blood. They become sluggish and
weaken; then you may suffer with a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, dizzi-
ness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan
nels often get sore and irritated, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
To help neutralize these irritating
acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and
flush off the body's urinous waste, get
four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here; 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,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for years to help flush and stimulate
sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the
acids in the system so they no longer
irritate, thus often relieving bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in
jure and makes delightful efferves-
cent lithia-water drink. BY all means
have your physician examine your kid
neys at least twice year.

Beads and More Beads
Will Be Worn This Fall
Brilliant Hues of These Costly and
Fashionable Ornaments Bring Out
Color Tones of the Gown.

Beads are fast becoming one OF the
most important items on the expense
book of the fashionably dressed wo-
man, for while she must, perforce, be
satisfied with single string OF real
pearls only dozens OF bead strings to
match her every gown in exact tone
and tint will suffice.
The comforting thought of husband
that glass beads are cheap" and the
fad is an inexpensive one is not borne
out by the facts. His monthly bills
soon disilluson him on this score. For
many so-called beads are listed as
semi-precious, with prices scaling &C
cordingly. Then, too, the vogue and
the style of cut also count in the sum
total.
Some of the necklaces are so long
that they have to be wound around
the neck three or four times and the
longest loop often reaches far below
the waist line. Those not so long are
often so short they almost choke the
wearer. The long strands are of very
small beads as a rule, while the short
strings are OF large sized ones.

Ever meet a tornado face to face
Do you know the fashion in lorna
does? In the summer time we have
no tornadoes. Do not get a tornado
mixed up with cyclone, but do not
get mixed up with either.
Many think tornadoes a SPECIAL ieat-
ure OF summer. The season IS not
Tulv or August nor even June. 1t is
limited to March, April and May
April is the month OF bumper tornado
crops, writes Gayle Pickwell, OF the
department OF zoology, Northwestern
University, in Nature Magazine. The
hot davs of summer are not producers
OF the funnel clouds.
A cyclone is approaching II the ba-
rometer falls A tornado may accom-
pany it, provided the cyclone is OF
tornado character; provided the local
ity is tornado territory; above all,
provided it is tornado season.

ports from Texas and Mississippi, and
by late May the Dakotas and Mime
sofa will have been visited. And sta
tistics, if you need Them show that
nearly so per cent take form IN the
first three months Of spring.
There is a definite relationship be
tween clouds and seasons. Such is the
case with the funnel cloud. Different
periods of the same day will produce
different clouds. The tornado comes
usually in the late afternoon or the
early evening. The hours OF 8 p. M

and neck for funnel-cloud honors. Ne

And, closely in order come M1ssis-

Corn-belt folks can tell awe-inspir-
ing tales of the ruin and desolatIon
wrought by tornadoes, OF their terrible
destructive powers; but the cause OF
this havoc is not clearly understood.
Certain it is there must be terrible
wind. and some authorities have es-
timated that the outer walls OF the
funnel NAV travel at from 800 to 50O
miles per hour. In the very center
there may be period vacuum which
bursts open all objects which with
stand the outer winds. A tornado. at
its largest will be less than 1000 feet
wide at its base. A tornado descended
near Clonmet, Kan, and, passing

HOW DID THAT WOMAN
HAPPEN TO GET IN?
Many Explanations Given for Exist
ence of Mother Ewes Daughter.

Woman's first appearance has been
a popular subject Of legends. The
Phoenician myth OF creation is found
ed on the story of Pymgalian and
Galatea. There the first woman was
carved out of ivory by the first man,
and then endowed with life by Aphro-
dite, says the Kansas City Star.
The Greek theory Of the creation OF
woman, according to Hesoid, was that
Zeus, as cruel jest, ordered Vulcan
to make woman out OF clay, and Their
induce the various gods and goddesseS
to invest the clay doll with all their
worst qualities, the result being love
Iy thing.
The Scandinavians say that as Odin,
VIII and We, the three sons OF Bor,
were walking along the sea beach,
they found two sticks of wood, one Of
ash and one of elm. Sitting down, the
gods shaped man and woman out OF
these sticks, whiting the woman
from the elm and called her Ernia.

FREAK KITTENS
ARE BORN HERE
Make Strange Entrance
to the World on Sheri-

ALL ARE SIAMESES

Three little kittens lay in a basket
of sawdust. Said the first little kitten
to the other two little cats, IF you
don't get out, must" And so said
the second little kitten to the other
two, and the third little kitten to the
other two little cats.
But the funny part of this par
ticular little basket of cats, was that
one couldn't get out without the
other. They were all tied together
and life blood flowed through them
on the same cord.
Strange Cat Arrives.
One night over the last weekend,
strange Mamma Pussy came to the
Carlson farm on the South Sheridan
road. She was given saucer of milk
and allowed to make bed for her
self where she pleased. In the morn
ing the household found that she had
left a present in token of her graft
tude and approval. There were three
little kittens on the porch in the
three presents but one.
The three kittens were Siamese trip
lets and each of the three depended
for life on the other in the same
way as did the Siamese twins of in
ternational renown.
The family received the addition to
the menagerie with great interest, and
did every thing to promote the life
life of the triplets, showing them as
a great curiosity. When last heard
from this week the youngsters were
all doing nicely.
