QUART Of WATER
CLEANS KIDNEYS

No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys oc-
casionaIly, says a well-known au'
thority. Eating too much rich food
creates acids, which excite the kld-
neys. They become overworked
from the strain, get sluggish ana
fail to filter the waste and potsons
from the blood. Then we get sick.
Rheumatism. headaches, liver trou'
BILE, nervousness. dizziness. sleep.
lessness often come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dun ache
in the kidneys, or your back hurts,
begin drinking quart OF water
each day. also get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar.
macy; take a tablespoonful in
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 lemon Juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to flush and stimu'
late the kidneys; also to help neu'
tralize the acids In the system, so
they no longer cause irritation, thus
often relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive: makes a
delightful effervescent hthia-water
drink which everyone should take
now and then to help keep the kid
neys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby often avoiding serious
kidney complications

LONSDALEPLAY
SUPERBLY
ACTED
BY ANDREW r. KELLEY


Frederick Lonsdale's latest play,
1.-THE High Road" presented under
the aegis of Dillingham;, opened the
final week of the regular season
at the National Theater last night.
Lonsdale calls it comedy, and
to be sure laughs dominate the
three acts, but beneath the veneer
of frivolity is a tragedy Of misun.
derstanding. 1t evolves around
an English family of the upper
register household weighed
down with titles and bad manners
and the CONSERVATION which en-
sues when a son of Lord Crayle
decides to marry an actress.
Playwright Lonsdale gives an
other exhibition Of his facility with
smart dialogue. When this family
group assemblies in the drawing
room it is pictured as a motley col
lection of lords, ladies and dukes,
all intent upon the business of
spreading insults couched under

gather that the house of Crayle
possesses geneology and tradition
and the manners of royalty for

nothing but supreme contempt for

scale. Aristocratic snobbery, un-
der the protection of the manor
drawing room is shown expressing
itself in velvety sneers and pol
ished wisecracks that reveal how
completely self-centered, bored and
unhappy a family can become.
It is tragically funny. One

agreement in the horrible pros
pect Of an actress joining the
Crayle family. The son and heir
has become completely srnitten

treating her like a gentleman

STOCK MARKET
SCENES PUT
TN FILM

Wall Street and the New York
Stock Exchange are synonymous
in the public mind, but, geographic
cally speaking, the relationship is
not that close. Broad Street and
New Street are quite as important
to the exchange, for it fronts" on
all three. Wall Street is at the
north, narrow little New Street is
to the west, and Broad Street, with
it's curb market, is at the east, the
upper end of this rectanble is the
change building.
The Stock Exchange Building is
Roman renaissance in architecture,
and on the Broad and New Street
fronts is glassed IN between the
74-foot columns that feature its
facades. This great expanse of
transparency provides adequate
light for the trading floor, which
is 100 by 144 feet in size.
The interior of the New York
Stock Exchange Is all of white
marble and the continuous win
dows on the east and west sides
are balanced by walls of this mar
BILE on the others. The entire cell
ing, with its fouT great supporting
trusses, is ornately gilded.

discussing what shall be done
about it. She proves ia, be a
very gallant lady and after a few
weeks under the manor roof
demonstrates that under the 10.
mantle program which creates this
domestic frenzy, the stage win
make the real sacrifice. After
matters become thoroughly In
volved, Playwright Lonsdale plays
a surprise trump and Elsie Hill
larry exits without title but with
all the honors of good sport.
A superb cast interprets this
play and it is needed for there is
a paucity of action and an abund-
ance Of dialogue. The grouchy
and plain spoken Lord Trench be-
comes a delightful old Grumpy
as played by Frederick Kerr. The
Sir Reginald Whelby of Lionel
Pape moves through the three
acts dropping nasty and cutting
remarks until he becomes a fair
object for first degree violence or
mayhem. Edna Best Is the
actress and gives a beautiful in
depreciation of an appealing
character. I liked the Duke Of
Warrington as played by Herbert
Marshall. He seemed to be the
most human and understanding
of the Crayle family You might
single out Hilda Spong, Mac
Kenzie Ward, Mimi Jordan, Wini-
fred Harris, II. Reeves Smith
Edward Martyr, John williams
and Alfred Drayton for individual
paragraphs Of merit If space per-
mitted. They were all fine. In
truth, this is an air tight and
delightfully."- competent cast Of
players which reflects lasting
credit on the casting director.
To sum It up, "The High
Road" Is worth your time. 1t
answers the question for all
time, who wants to be a
Duchess?"
