the other side was probably dark The

QUIT MEAT IF KIDNEYS
BOTHER AND USE SALTS
Take a Glass of Salts Before Break-
fast If Your Back Is Hurting or
Bladder Is Irritated
If you must have your meat every
day eat it but flush your kidneys with
salts occaelonally says a noted author-
ity who tells us that meat forms uric
acid which almost paralyzes the kid-
neys in their efforts to expel it from
the blood They become sluggish and
weaken then you suffer with a dull
misery in the kidney 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 neutralize these irritating acids
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys wil1 then
act fine This famous salts is made
from the acids of grapes and lemon
juice combined with lithia and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys also to
neutralize the acids in urine so it no
longer irritates thus ending bladder
weakness
Jad Salts is inexpensive cannot in-
jure and makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia-water drink—Adv

"Mister Interlocutor can you tell
me the difference between an Irish
soldier and a Scotch soldier when
fighting in the trenches with the al
lies?"
"No Mr Bones I cannot Will you
elucidate the difference?"
"One says he is kilt with the cold
and the other says be is cold with
the kilt"

Little Stories of the Week's
tiappenings in All Nations
THE WAR
The end of the sixth month of Eu-
rope's great war finds the armies of
the belligerent nations completing
preparations for a new series of op-
erations or actually engaged In cam-
paigns the extent of which hardly was
anticipated when the declarations of
hostilities were made
In Flanders France and central Po-
land a deadlock still exists but large-
ly because of Russia's tremendous -resources
and the action of Turkey the
sphere of operations has been widely
extended
Russia alone is engaged in fighting
armies from Tilsit far in the north of
east Prussia to Tabriz in Persia a
distance of over 1500 miles Only that
portion of her territory bordering on
Roumania is free from menace but
according to her reports all is going
well with her immense armies The
Russion outflanking movement in
northern east Prussia is said to be
gaining momentum
On the southern front in east Prus-
sia another army is advancing toward
the German fortress of Thorn while
still another is holding a line of en-
trenchments which protect Warsaw
and through which General Von Hind-
enburg has been trying to batter for
three months Other armies are pre-
paring again to meet a big Austro-
German force which Is attempting to
regain Galicia and Buckowina there-
by turning Grand Duke Nicholas' left
wing
To the eastward the Muscovite
troops are battling against the Turks
In the Caucasus and Persia They ap-
parently have inflicted another defeat
on the Turkish forces for the Russian
official report says their opponents are
retreating to Tabriz while unofficial
dispatches ptate that the Russians
have reoccupied that city
What is regarded as the most im-
portant campaign however is that
which is developing in the Carpath-
ians brought about by the Austro-
German offensive designs to drive the
Russians from Galicia and Bukowlna
thereby removing the menace of an in-
vasion of Hungary The Austro-German
allies are said to have concen-
trated no less than twenty-eight army
corps for this venture So far as can
be gathered from contradictory re-
ports the Russians have won prelim-
inary skirmishes in the western passes
from Dukla to Wyszkow while to the
east they have been forced to retire
before superior forces The battles
which are being fought in the snow are
just commencing however and many
days must pass before a definite deci-
sion is reached
In East Prussia a Russian offensive
has developed in the extreme north
where the renewed fighting seems to
confirm the belief that a definite effort
to advance north of the Mazurian lakes
district where previously the Russians
were defeated has been decided upon
by the Russian general staff
The only thing holding Roumania in
check at present is the uncertainty as
to the action Bulgaria would be likely
to take Bulgaria it Is asserted is
still demanding that part of Macedonia
now under Servian rule as to the price
of her neutrality and Servia is reported
unwilling to make this concession
- DOMESTIC
The state-wide prohibition bill
passed the Arkansas house of repre-
tentatives Sophie Ghet known to the police
as the "opium queen" was sentenced
at New York to pay a fine of $2000
and to serve six months in the pen-
itentiary for smuggling opium
Between $40000 and $50000 worth
of diamonds were stolen from the
pawnshop of Adolph Stern on the up-
per east side New York by three men
who drove up to the store in an auto
Announcement is made that the of-
fer made by representatives of the
United Mine Workers of America for
the purchase of the holdings of the
Bache-Denmaon Coal Company in the
Hartford valley or Arkansas has been
withdrawn
There is no loophole in the federal
law which makes it a penal offense to
be caught with opium in one's posses-
sion This was the substance of a
decision here by the United States
circuit court of appeals at San Fran-
cisco in a test case brought by Max
Steinfeldt sentenced under the act of
1909 to nine months' imprisonment
Tieven similar cases are now before
the supreme court
