WHEN BACK HURTS
FLUSH OUT KIDNEYS
Drink Lots of Good Water
All Day, Also Take Salts
Occasionally

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with
/ lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with a mild, harmless salts
which helps to remove the body's
urinolls waste and stimulates them
to their normal activity. The func-
ton of the kidneys is to filter the
blood. In "a hours they strain from
it 500 grains Of acid and waste; so
we can readily understand the vital
importance of keeping the kidneys
active.
Drink lots OF good water-you
can't drink too much; also get from
any pharmacist about four ounces
Of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast
each morning for 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 clean and
stimulate clogged kidneys: also to
neutralize the acids in the system
so they are no longer a source Of
irritation. thus often relieving blad-
der weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
injure: makes a delightful effer-
vescent Whitewater drink, which
everyone should take now and then
to help keep their kidneys clean
and active. Try this; also keep up
the water drinking, and no doubt
you will wonder what became of
your kidney trouble and backache.

ward, another question, if you can
spare the time, he called out sar-
casticaIly to the young man who
stood at one Of the two front vim
dows, his arm about Ruth Testers
shoulders.
"Yes?7 Jack wheeled
you've said you and Miss Lester
attended a matinee Which the
alter? When did the curtain go
up?"
Ruth saw the drift of the question
before it was apparent to Jack, but
there was nothing to do but to
stand quietly in the circle of his
arm as he answered:
THE Princess theater TIL play
was Murder The curtain rose at
gas"
"'Murderp Rather a neat coin
cident, ell? I hope you both en-
joyed the SHOVE"
Ruth, remembering how she had
wept uncontrollabIy during the sec
end act because the district attor-
ney reminded her of her dead
father, did not answer except with
a nervous flicker of her eyelaShes,
and Jacks only response was a
tightening of his arm about the
girls shoulders.
Two forty-fye curtain, eh?' Nc
Mann nodded, his eyes narrowing
to points of steely light. You say
you we're not in your Office at 2:10
when CoWan was plugged in on q
busy line after he'd called your
number, that you were rejoining
Miss Lester at the Chester hotel ~
that moment. Right?"
That's correct" Jack retorted
CURLY.
McNIann shufTled his notes, pre-
tending to consult them to refresh
his memory.
And yet. Hayward, you were in
such hurry to leave the hotel that
you didn't take time to read the
figures on your check, and started
off in a rush without your brief
case. According to the walters
story, you didn't have dessert after
you got back to the hotel. If, as
you say, it was only 10 after when
you returned, what was your
hurTy?'
"I was not in a hurry Jack con-
tfadicted. II had a cup of coffee,
sat talking with Miss Lester for a
few minutes, and left the dining
room at 2:25. We were both UNI
der the impression that it was a
2:3O curtain and walked directly to
the theater which is four blocks
from the Chester hotel

II preferred walking to sitting il a

manded, after a brief, measuring

Of prospects, Jack answered even
ly. There was no gun in that
briefcase, McMann."
That's your story, and you're 60
ing to stick to it, eh?" McMann
growled. Listen, Hayward, you
must realize that I've got the goods
on you! Three people-the eleVa-
tor operator, Moran; Cowan, a
friend of yours. who would have lied
to protect you if he had dared, and
Phillips, the Waiter-have told sub
stantially the same story; you we're
in a White-hot rage against Harry
Borden and threatened to kill him.
by your own admission you re-
turned TO your office, where you
kept a gun. Your secretary says it
was still there Saturday morning,
and it's not there now CoWan
hears Borden defying your inter
ference and threats over the tele-
phone at ten minutes after 2.
Il submit that Borden came to
the window on the airShaft, directly
opposite your own window, not
knowing that you had been tele-
phoning from your own office, that
you saw him, reached for your gun
and shot him down before he sus-
peCted his danger; that you then
came to his office, opened the outer
mill ioII Ty
placed in your hands by the waiter,
closed the window without taking
time to notice that one of the
pigeons had already betrayed you
by leaving tracks of blood outside
the window as well as on the floor
inside the room; that you then
robbed the dead mans body of the
$500 so that would look like the
work of holdup man, or because
you badly needed the money. That's
my case, Haywood, and if I were a
prosecuting attorney I'd be willing
to take it to court as it isl"
Just a minute, Jack!" Ruth cried
peremptorily, as the furious young
man started forward.
Listen, Mr.. NcMann Remember
that you've got to find someone who
saw him in this wing of the build
ing after he returned to his Office.
There were cleaning women and I'M
doubtedly other tenants on the
floor, and Rita Duboic was certain
ly here about the time you insist
that Jack was in Borden'S Office.

the key would not be ignored iii
court as you have chosen to ignore
it."
| THERE was a flicker of admira-
A. ton in McMann's eyes-as they
studied the girl. when did Hay
ward return your key, Miss Les
ter?" he asked at last, very quietly.
1.-THE key to Borden's Officer
He did not return it, because
he had never seen it or touched
it," Ruth denied passionately. CAS-
explained a while ago, the key
the waiter found on the floor could
not have been the office key. It was
my apartment key, the only one
that could have fallen out of my
bag when I dropped it.
He return it Immediately to my
bag, for it was there when I reached
the apartment Saturday evening,
and the bag had not been out of my
possession after I returned to the
table-before Mr.. Hayward left for
the theater tickets"
But as Ruth was concluding her
argument in triumphant rush of
words, her too-clear memory be-
trayed her.
Like a scrap of motion picture
before him, a scene passed before
her minds eye: Jack and herself
In the bank Saturday evening; Jack,
waiting for her to make her deposit,
and holding her handbag for her;
Jacks guilty flush when she rallied
him on having opened it: "Peeking
to see what kind of lipstick 1 use,
darling?"
Haven't you remembered some
thing you'd like to forget, Miss
Lester?" McMann asked, almost
kindly.
mol" Ruth denied. No, no! She
had told him the truth. 1t must
have been her apartment key which
mad fallen out of her purse and
which Jack had been returning.
But-Why hadn't he explained then?
Detective Covey, SIR BirdwelI
announced, and the poppy, jolly
little detective staggered into the
dead mans private office.
What about the cleaning woman,
Covey?" McMann demanded i'm
patiently.
Haven't been able to find either
one OF them-Minnie Cassidy and
Lefty Miller are the names, SIR"
CoVey answered cheerfully. 1.-THE
Cassidy woman left home at 10 this
morning, according to her daughter,
to visit some friend of hers in an
other part of town, but the daugh-
ter dout know the name or address,
and the Miller woman hasn't been
living at the address Coghlan, the
superintendent, gave us, for a
month. It's a rooming house and
the landlady says old Mrs. Miller
didn't leave forwarding address,"
II suppose there's nothing to do
but to wait until they show up for
work at A this afternoon" McMann
growled. "All right, Birdwell-What
is it?" as his other subordinate
again appeared in the communicate
ing doorway.
Or. Nelson on the phone, sir"
BirdWell answered.
AS McMann reached for the ex-
tension on Borden's desk, Ruth's
cold right hand went involuntarily
to her throat. If the caliber of the
bullet which had killed Borden
matched the caliber of the pistol
missing from Jacks desk =.
