that in cases where malt and

that liquor laws have been
violated by the sellers or the
buyers, the Government would
have no reason to seize and libel

DRINK WATER =

TO FLUSH KIDNEYS
Plain water best dSuretic. Add
a spoonful of ordinary JAD Salts
to clear intestines of poisons that

If you have miserable pains IN
your back, or strained feeling, don't

Plain water is the best diuretic-
the best flusher of the kidneys you

Drink a full glass one-half hour

kidneys. The Jad Salts will cleanse
the intestines of the dangerous
toxins of Systematic Poisoning

of those back pains.
According to recent discoveries OF
able men of science, these toxins
frequently pass from the lower in

formations and pain-and inviting
trouble. Get them out of your sys-

GREENFIELD, Mo, Oct. IA
steadily growing posse of officers
and angered citizens searched this
section of Missouri today for trace
of Mrs. Alma Wilson Mckinley, "a
year-old daughter of Dade county's
wealthiest citizen, and the man who
kidnapped her.
The man, masked and armed with
a shotgun, entered the Benton Will
son farm home near here Monday
night, bound Mrs. Wilson and forced
her daughter to leave with him in
an automobile. To delay pursuit, he
cut the telephone wire into the
house before entering.
The fact that Mrs. Mckinley will
become a mother was cited as prob
able basis for belief by the abb
ductor that he could obtain ransom
easily from her wealthy father.
Wilson, who made a fortune in
Oklahoma oil fields and retired to
his 4,000-acre farm near here, was
in Kansas City when the kidnap-
ing occurred.
