OBSERVE RULES OF THE ROAD
Motorists Who Do This Will Make
Driving Conditions Infinitely Better

"Observe the rules of the road is
the advice of L. L. Hopes, Executive
Secretary of the Delaware Automobile
Association, 18th and West Streets,
Wilmington, which points to the in
creasing number of automobiles on
the highways as an added reason for
unusual precautions during the tour
ing season.
'We are" says a statement by the
Association, "at the beginning of the
greatest touring season in history.
More automobiles will be on the high
ways Of the United States than ever
before, and more tourists from other
states will pass over the roads Of Del
aware. Many of the visiting thous-
ands will be unfamiliar with the car
dinal rule of the -courtesy-and
they have a right to expect from local
motorists the same courtesies and
consideration that we look for when
touring in their states.
"Of course, the road hog is the same
no matter what state he calls home,
but it is conceded by motorists sever
est critics that this class is far in the
minority. Thus, the majority of Wis
itors are likely to be well-meaning
and considerate drivers, deserving Of
whatever help local motorists can give
them.
"On our part, the facilities of the
Delaware Automobile Association are
at the service of visitors. This is
carrying out the policy of the Ameri-
can Motorists Association-the Ma
tional Association Of the largest Auto
mobile Clubs and Associations III
North America.
Announcement is made BY the Penn
sylvania Department of Highways
that 115 detours are now in effect or
Pennsylvania Roads. Motorists who
plan to travel outside their own To-
calities are invited BY the Delaware
Automobile Association to take ad-
vantage Of the facilities offered by it,

WASH YOUR KIDNEYS
BY DRINKING WATER
If Your Back Hurts or Blad-
der Bothers, Also Take
Some Salts.

Flush your kidneys by drinking
a quart of water each day, also
take salts occasionally, says a
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 suf-
fer with a dull misery in the kid
ney region, sharp pains in the
back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is
coated, and when the weather is
bad you have rheumatic twinges.
The urine gets cloudy, full OF
sediment. the channels often get
sore and irritated, obliging you
to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
To help neutralize these irritat-
ing acids. to help cleanse the kid
neys and flush off the body's
urinous waste, get four ounces
of Jad Salts from. any pharmacy
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 iithia, and has been used ior
years to help flush and stimulate
sluggish kidneys: also to neutral
ize the acids in the system so they
no longer 'irritate, thus often re-
lieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive: cam
not injure and makes a delightful
effervescent Whitewater drink

On Unknown Soldier
Grow in Popularity
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. october ia
Seven years ago the Associated
Press, to meet a public demand,
printed in pamphlet form the
series of Washington dispatches
written by Kirke L. Simpson re-
garding the ceremonies incident
to the entombment of the I'm
known Soldier.
Several thousand copies were
distributed in response to re-
quests and now the pamphlet
has gone into a second edition
because requests continue.
Simpson, himself. although his
dispatches attained the distinc-
ton of the Pulitzer prize, modest
ly refers to them as "a lucky re-
porting stunt" The public evi-
IDENTIFY thinks 1t is more than
that. The dispatches have been
quoted on the lecture platform,
in the pulpit. reproduced in
school text books and have been
highly praised by those who like
to read good newspaper English.

ABLAZE TO DIE
Disappointed in Love, Touches
Match to Turpentine. Sat-
urated Self

New York, August 1.-R-Ap-
parently disappointed in love, Miss
Louisa Amelia de Hostos, 3S years
old, set herself afire in her upper
West Side apartment and died at
Harlem hospital today.
Miss de Hostos, said by a friend
to be the daughter Of Eugenia de
Hostos, q Porto Rican educator,
came to New York to seek a career
as an author.
She was unconscious when found
in her apartment. At the hospital
it was said she had saturated her
clothing with turpentine and then,
after climbing into the bathtub, had
applied a match. She was burned
from head to foot.
Although she refused to discuss
with a detective the cause Of her at
tempt at suicide, she told him to
read a letter addressed to the "chief
Of police of New York" which she
had left in her apartment. This note
appeared to have been written in
great haste and lacked conference.
1t read:
"As there is no punishment for a
man who takes lady's name and
disfigures it with all kinds of lies in
a sneaky way, never giving any
clues for his Identification. AS the
victim has not even the means of
defending herself ! have decided
that he may answer before God for
this taking of my life" -.
After finding the letter, the detec-
tive returned to the hospital and
asked Miss de Hostos for the name
Of the man mentioned in the note,
but she refused to give it.

Toral named the nun when ques-

charged with murder.
Without a collar and his scraggly
black beard showing more than a
weeks growth, Toral seemed utterly
Indifferent under the questioning.
He was calm and composed. His
voice was low but he spoke clearly
and without tremor. He occasion
ally clenched his fists.
"Did you consider well everything
involved when you were going to
kill Obregon?" Judge Mendosa
asked.
"Yes," Toral replied, II thought
Of the consequences but not Of all"

Continuing his examination of
Toral, the Judge asked him if he had
considered killing Gales also. Toral
replied:
"Only in case Gales and Obreeon
were together and it was possible to
kill both at the same time, but
never thought especially Of killing
