IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.
When you wake up with backache
nnd dull misery in the kidne • region it
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworKs the kidneys in their effort
to filter It from the blood and they be
come sort of paralyzed and loggy.
"When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
nnd when weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels of
ten jet sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief twe- or three
times during the night.
Either consu"- » food, reliable phy
sician at once or get rrom your phar
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts:
lake a tablespoonful In a glass of wa
ter befoi a breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
«cid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with llthia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
actds in the urine so it no longer irri
tates. thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
Injure and makes a delightful, effer
vescent llthia-water drink. —Advertise-

WEDNESDAY EVENING
Child Labor Bill Is
Amended in Committee
as Manufacturers Desire
It was learned to-day from a trust
worthy authority that the Senate
judiciary special committee, which
considered the Cox child labor bill, in
executive session last night voted to
amend the bill in several particulars,
such as increasing the hours from 51
to 54 a week and from 9 to 10 a day,
also reducing the age at which boys
may sell newspapers from 12 to 10
years. The vote, it is said, was 9to 6.
The committee decided not to report
the bill to the Senate this week.
Governor Brumbaugh had urged
members of the committee to report
the bill as it had passed the House.
FRENCH \\l» JOFFHEi A COIII'AHI
SO\
Tt is interesting to find the two great
Allied Commanders compared in Cecil
Chlsholm's biography of Sir John
French (Stokes). "In mßnv wavs,
French bears, in character and tempera
' ment, a striking resemblance to his col
league in arms—General Joffre. Al
though J off re is three inches taller
than French—he is five feet nine—lie
Is otherwise very similar in appear
ance. There is tile same short, power
ful physique, the narrow neck sur
mounted by a massive head ami heavy
jaw, nnd the same broad forehead, with
masterful eyes peeping from beneath
bushy eyebrows. Neither of these men
I who rule armips of undreamt propor
| tion is in the least degree strident or
] self-assertive. Indeed, both tend to he
j listeners rather than talkers. Moth have
i the same trick of main:? instantaneous
I decisions. Both scorn to be merely
I "smart" in outward appearance: botii
are devoted to efficiency in detail; and,
most suggestive of all, each finds him
self eternally compared to Generpl
Grant! Probably the tatter's dogged
personality forms the best possible
common denominator for these two re
markable men."

Some few years ago, in the south of

that he was a military man. and after
a moment he said, "That was a close

specially wanted to catch this connec

W'p are of opinion that Wellington was
the greater. With considerable skill
and gracionsness the stranger oroved

The sharp featured woman >Uh the
I long none aud the high arched brows
[ rolled her electric coupe up to the
door of her own house and went Into
the parlor!
June closed her eyes. Suddenly she
sprang to her feet and. running to the
door, placed the tilted back of a chair
beneath the knob; then she stood for
a moment In earnest thought. She
walked slowly to the wardrobe aud
opened it. Half a dozen pretty cos
tumes hung there. She was about
hastily to bring down the least con
spicuous of these, aud she chose instead
one of the most elaborate, an afternoon
gown richly trimmed with fur. With
feverish speed she donned this ex
quisite garment, congratulating herself
that It fitted her beautifully.
In the parlor Orln Cuuningham sat
with two young women. The young
man wag playing the piano, and a
third young woman in the middle of
the floor was laughing and executing
a fancy dance step. Over by the
window stood Gilbert Rlye with Mrs.
Russel. In his lianil he held a tiny
gold watch, and in the open Ihl there
smiled a portrait of lovely June War
ner.
"She is simply stunning," said Mrs.
Bussel appreciatively. "Do you sup
pose she will live here?"
Gilbert Blye smiled, and, shutting
the watch with a decisive click, he put
It in his pocket and walked into the
hall. As he started tip the stairs lie
stopped, surprised by the beautiful
figure Which emerged from a rooiu
and came down toward blm with
queenly grace. It was Juna, an en
trancing vision of loveliness in her bor
rowed finery, and In her eyes was a
new light.
"Will you give me a cigarette,
ptewse?" she gayly requested him, and
he looked at her in astonishment.
"Why—why. yes"' he stammered.
He produced his cnse, and she took a
cigarette. Still studying her curiously,
he lit hi* pocket lighter for her, and a
slight frown twitched upon his brow
as, puckering her beautiful fed lips,
she blew a long thin stream of blue
smoke into his face.
"Come on," she called, and. taking
his arm. she tripped smilingly into the
parlor, with a sidelong glance, how
ever, as she left the hail, at the stal
wart attendant who guarded tile front
door.
"Whose dress am I wearing?" sh<-
cheerfuily demanded.
"It's mine," sakl one of the girls,
jumping up from the side of Cunning
ham and walking all around her. "But.
honey, I'm bound to say that it looks
better on you than It does on me."
And there was a trace of envy in the
compliment.
"By George, you're a dream?' said
Orln Cunningham, who had been too
much astonished to rise until now.
ami. with a sidelong glance at Gilbert
Blye. he walked across to her. and
from his pocket he drew a long white
leather case closed with a golden
clasp. He opened it. drew something
from it and. his eyes sparkling, held
up a string of milk white pearls.
"How nbout it''"
She flashed her large, lustrous eyes
at him. awl her rosy lips parted In »
smile; then she looked sit Gilbert Blye
He hesitated a moment and nodded
Then she bent her head, and Cunning
ham threw the striug of pearls around
her beautiful white neck.
She put her arm through his and
merrily danced across the room to a
mirror, where with sparking eyes she
admired the pretty bauble,
"I think I'll have n cocktail. please."
she said, turning suddenly to Mrs
Russel. "Why has no one offered me
one?"
"Bless your heart, honey." laughed
Mrs. Russel, "I didn't suppose you
knew how to drink a cocktail."
.Tune was a bubble, a sprite, a danc
ing effervescence, a gay little tantalien
tion. until Mrs. Russel returned with
cocktails for all of them. June drank
hers with enchanting Abandon.
Suddenly she whirled to the door
and Cunningham was after tier In a
flash.
"No, no.'" she laughingly cried. "I'm
going to surprise you. You must stay
in here and wait."
"Not me." laughed Cunningham.
"Then I won't surprise you." And j
she flounced into a chair with a pretty'
pout.
"Here, Cunningham," called the
young man who l»nd followed June
"we want that surprise."
"Sit down, Cunningham," said Blye.
tnd he Indicated where Cunningham
Was to sit while he held back the por
tieres for June to pass.
She stopped in the curtains.
"Now. mind, none of you is to come!
And have another cocktail ready for
me;" She whispered something in
Biye's ear as she hurried into the hall.
He put his head out, however, and
looked at the liveried attendant. That
stalwart person atood stiffly at the door
and cast ills gloomy eyes on June. He
was the type of man who would as lief
murder a beautiful woman as an ugly
one.
Halfway np the stairs June turned
and found the eyes of the stalwart
guard flied steadfastly upon her. She
smiled sweetly at him and beckoned.
He hesitated a moment, then came
stalking slowly to her. So long as she
was within reach of him he need not
be within reach of the door.
"What's your name?" and, folding
her hands together, she beamed down
at the big lout.
"Christian," and he actually grinned.
"Well. Christian, now listen." and
■he held tip a warning finger. "I want
you to help me play a little trick. Conn
on and I'll show you." She turned and
tripped lightly up the stairs.
Christian, however, turned and stalk
ed to the parlor and poked his yeliov
Lead between tile po. tasi'ua.

"She wants me to help play a trick,"
he announced. and they all laughed.
"lt'« a safe trick If you help." chuck
led Cunningham, and Blye motioned
1»1« assent. Thereupon Christian stalk
ed up the stairs nnd entered the room
where June stood anxiously awaiting
him.
ller silvery little laugh came as she
saw hlxij, and she van lightly to the
window and threw it open. There was
a tiny balcony outside which was en
tirely isolated and quite high above the
street.
"Now, Just stand out there." she di
rected, and he stepped obediently out.
Gently she lowered the window.
"I'll tell you what to do next," she
laughed, nodded to him and turned the
window lock; then she slid the steel Are

the window Jamb, and dropped theii
bolt in place.
On the bed were the coat and hat
which she had laid out. She grabbed
these up and then, with a quick glance
about her, closed her door softly from
the outside and tiptoed down the stairs, j
She scarcely breathed as she slipped'
past the parlor portieres and covered
the slight cough which she could not
repress. Her touch upon the locks ol
tiie heavy front door was as deft and
as light as a feather. As the big door
swung slowly June stifled a shriek
with the sharp intake of lier breath.
The portieres had swayed, and an el
bow had come through! But it was
only the young man with the fat little
girl called Maizie. and June slipped out
through the narrowest crack which
would accommodate her body. Clos
!ug the door behind her with a touch
as soft as the breath of summer, June
hurried lightly down the steps, crouch
ing elose to the stone wall.
Then, casting over her shoulder one ;
glance, in which was all the agony of j
terror, she trusted to her heels and ran
up the street at top speeu. As she
ueared the corner she turned and look
ed back. The stalwart Christian, with
his face to the window, was patiently
walling for instructions.

at the door and Bill Wolf hold
ing <lll t<> the spare tires for j

into the long private drive to a beaut!- j
ful residence overlooking the river, and j
Bill Wolf, with a long sigh of relief,;
prepared to unbend at last from his;
stiffening position. The car, however, i
never slackened. As it dashed past the j
porte-cochere its pale faced Italian :
driver bent and looked at his clock and ;
swept around on the other side of tiie ]
long curve Just us the family car of the
Moores whirled into the drive. The
handsome collie yelped as he recog
nized the familiar spot, and the five
people in the family car looked at each
other In perplexity as Jerry curved
round back to the road. How pecul
iar! The black curtained limousine
was apparently heading into the city
again, and a curved limpness came into
the broad back of faithful Bill Wolf.
In the ornately decorated parlor Mrs.
Aussel served the cocktails and start
ed upstairs with .Tune's. They stopped
her at the portieres.
"She's not to be disturbed." they all
to:d her in their different forms of
speech.
June Warner had fled far away from
that section, hurrying on and on as
If she could not put enough distance
between herself and that hateful scene.
She was In the more densely populat

looked In at the next one. it was re

cleaner oue which she had passed and
went back to it. She hesitated a mo

There she found a pudgy, bowlegged
little man.
"Is it anything I can do, miss?" he
asked her.
"How much will you give me for
this, please?" and from her hair she
took an exquisitely carved tortoise
shell comb studded with blue stones.
The pudgy little man glanced at it
Indifferently.
"Half a dollar, maybe."
"Oh!" And June picked tip the comb
in dismay. "Why, these are real sap

When Bill Is Under
Discussion
•
The .Senate Judiciary special commit
tee. after deliberating for nearly two
hours in executive session last night
I on the Cox child labor hill, favored by
j Governor BrumDaugh, did not an
j nounce its decision on the matter of
' reporting it to the Senate.
It was reported that the committee
! had amended the bill. This, however,
I could not be confirmed,
j Senator Snyder, of Schuylkill, chair
: man of the committee, said there was
I "nothing to report." All the members
| of the committee were pledged to sec
j racy as to what occurred In the com
| mil tee.
I Governor Brumbaugh had requested
I that the bill be reported to the Senate
as It passed the House. Senator Snyder,
i who is opposed to the measure as It
j stands, had announced that he would
trv to amend It In committee and It was
expected the proposed act would be
brought out in some foi'm.
Varc ■mil Grundy TIH
A sharp tilt between Kdwin H. Vare.
of Philadelphia, and Joseph R. Grundy,
of Bristol, president of the Pennsyl
vania Manufacturers' Association, was
one of the fentures of the hearing be
fore the committee, before the body
went into executive session.
The hearing was open to all persons
who desired to bo heard for or against
the measure, but as no one appeared
j for Hie bill, the time of the committee
was taken up with hearing those who
I objected to certain features of the pro
posed act.
It was at the very close of the hear
! in K ,h «t benator Vare asked permission
jto say a few words. He declared that
h»« h^J X Pv erlence ,W, a legislator there
has not been a bill presented in the
legislature In the interest of better
. working: hours and conditions for ehil
| dren tha.t did not meet the opposition
.of manufacturers. This at-oused the ire
of Mr. Grundy, who, interrupting and
with some heat, declared that the
manufacturers were now here In the
Interest of a bill that was more liberal
than the one Mr. Vare voted for at tho
last session of the Legislature and that
for Senator \are "to have the effront
ery to say the manufacturers were
opposed to all child labor legislation
was at variance'" with the facts."

. This stirred up Mr. Vare. who, thump
ing the desk in front of him. vehement-
XM a . l , tw .° y, ', a, ' a "K° h« and
Senator McMchol fought for the bill
regulating the working hours for wo- ,
men. section by section, against the op
position of Hie manufacturers, to re
duce the working hours from slxtv to
fifty-four a week. Mr. Vare then went
on to say that It was time for Pennsyl
vania to enact a good child labor law
as other States had done. He read a.
letter from a University of Pennsylva
nia professor to Governor Brumbaugh
in which the writer had commended the
Governor for the stand he had taken
011 the question of child labor
Here Mr. Grundy got another chance
to speak, declaring that he desired to
correct a statement made by Mr. Vare
that lie (Vare) had fought to reduce
the hours In the women's bill from
sixty to fifty-four. The bill provided
for fifty-five. Mr. Grundy sald. and was
finally reduced to fifty-four.

In his statement and further said that
he "went down on his knees" two year*
ago and pleaded with Mr. Grundy to
accept a V4 hours In the child labor bill

men before the hearing adjourned
The hearing was held in the Se'nale

the hearing, said that the committee
would first hear those who favor the

bill and the committee proceeded to
