TALE OF IA MURDERS

Seattle Police Make Little Progress
in Verifying Mans Lurid
Confession.
BY the Associated Press.

SEATTLE, WASH. August 3.-Po-
lice have made little progress in at
tempts to verify the story of Thomas
johnson, alias Kelley. alias Smith,
who Saturday surrendered to au
thorities and confessed to II murders
and scores of robberieS
Johnson. who claims to have es
capped from Missouri asylum after
being transferred from the peni-
Tertiary. continues to give details of
crimes he says he committed in many
sections of the country. His claim
that he escaped from the asylum,
where he was listed under the name
of Thomas Kelley. corresponds to
asylum records which show that a
man using that name escaped two
years ago.
Told that police at Mankato, Mimi,
could find nothing to prove his story
that he killed his partner there, John
son said he sank the body in the
river back of an ice house.
Two Minneapolis detectives are en-
route to get Johnson. who included
in his list of crimes the murder of
Leonard Erndahl of that city last
December.

INFANTRY is BACKBONE
OF ARMY, SAYS HARBORD
Declares, in Article, That All Me-

Aid "Doughboy."
BY the Associated Press.

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana, August 8.
The ''doughboy" continues to be the
backbone of the army, says an article
by Maj Gen. J. c. Harbord retired
appearing today in the August issue
of the American Legion monthly.
The, author refers to a report of
the general staff in 1922 which
reached the conclusion that man re-
mains the fundamental instrument in
battle" and fights with greater eff
ficiency on foot, not on horseback, in
a tank, airplane or fixed fortifica
tion."
I'm all ages, man, during peace, has
turned his mind to the mechanical
means of winning wars. Some of
these inventions have served most
practical purposes, but none Of them
have replaced the infantry. They have
all either served the doughboy or dis

order in the House Of Commons YES

lain when he asked the foreign Sec
rotary to suggest to Brig. Gen. Lin
coin c. Andrews, chief of the Ameri-

that he return to his own country and
amend the disgraceful state of af-
fairs as regards prohibition there"
Mr.. Chamberlain was cheered when
he said he deprecated the tone of the
members remark, as it was really
not an attitude which should be adopt
ed toward another great and friendly
nation"
MacQuisten intimated that Ameri-
can citizens never had been poisoned
by liquor smuggled into the United
States, but that a score of British sub
tects had been poisoned by bootleg
liquor sent out of the United States,
presumably to Canada.

Vanity Case Fills
Place of War Paint
For Canada Indian
By the Associated Press.

EDMONTON, Alberta, August 3.
There is at least one Indian in
Canada who prefers the modern
vanity case and makeup box to
the war paint of his ancestor, ac-
cording to III. p Murphy, trapper
and explorer from the Ptarmigan
Lake district.
Murphy says that recently he
met an Indian on the trail wear
ing a vanity box where formerly
a scalping knife had hung. From
this the Indian pulled a powder
puff, powdered his face and then
extracted a small mirror from the
bag to assure himself that his
makeup was good.

London lawyer, made such a name for
himself before the bar that he was
raised to Earl of Camden. This earl's
subsequent opposition to the tea and

Drugs Excite
the Kidneys,
Drink Water
Take Salts at First Sign Of
Bladder Irritation or
Baekaehe

The American men and women must
guard constantly against kidney trouble
because we often eat too much rich food.
Our blood is filed with acids which the
kidneys strive to filter out; they weaken
from overwork, become sluggish, the
~eliminative tissues clog and the result
is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and
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 n~eutralize the acids in the
system SC they no longer are a source
of irritation, thus often relieving bad
der disorders.
Jad Salts IS Inexpensive; can not IN
jure, makes a delightful ~effervesceui
lithia-wster drink and belongs in every
home, because nobody can make a mis-
take by having a good kidney flushing
any time.
