If back hurts or Bladder bothers, stop all meat for a while. When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eat ing 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 become sort of paralyzed and loggy. "When your kidneys get sluggish and flog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels: removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have J|tokache, sick headache, dizzy spells: .<|>ur stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physi cian at once or get from your phar macist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys .will then act fine. This famous salts Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, com bined with llthla, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weak ness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. Tt is inexpensive, can not injure and makes a delightful, effervescent lithla water drink. —Ad vertisement. THURSDAY EVENING, ( from a stroke.

CLOSE WALL GAP INSIDE OF WEEK Less Than Dozen Flights of "Steps" Yet to Be Placed Along River Front WET WEATHER'S DELAY Three Miles of Great Walk on City's Banks Build ing Dam The gap in the river wall at Market street, the only open section with the exception of "Hardscrabble" > ,tn the three-mile length of the water front improvement, will be closed with steps within another week unless wet weather or other untoward conditions should interfere. This, at least, Is the expectation of the engineers and con tractors. who are busy putting in the of the concrete stringers to-day. Less than a dozen sections of steps remain to be p'4t into place and the material will be "set" in forms, it is hoped, before tlie end of this week. The stretch of 14-foot-wide grano lithic walk which will be the finishing touch will be put down, very likely, early next week. Wet weather and the sudden changes in the river's height from time to time have delayed the operations to some extent during the last week or ten days and the job has not progressed as rapidly as had been expected. While the construction work on the wall gap is being pushed ahead the remainder of the slabs of concrete which will finish off the river dam at Dock street are being lifted into place. Probably sixty of the big blocks—cov ering approximately 400 feet—must be swung into position on the top tier of the dam. This operation, the last of the city's present program of mu nicipal improvements, will be finished, too, before another week has passed. Opening of Brown & Co.

Is Real Republic Practically every phase of the equal suffrage stand was discussed by Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the National Women's Suffrage Associa tion before a large in Tech nical High School auditorium last night, with the keen originality which has made her the peer of her sex as a speaker. Bright witticisms were fre quently interspersed throughout her talk. "The women know what they want," said Dr. Shaw, "and they are not afraid to say so. We are asking for just one thing and that is that this government be the thing, which it pre tends to be, but which it is not, a republic in the full sense of the word. We are not asking for anything that is abnormal or that does not comply with progressiveness. Suffrage must be granted before this government is a republic." Immediately afterward Dr. Shaw left for Pittsburgh. Wilson to Ask For "Free Sugar" Tariff Repeal Washington, O. C., Oct. 7.
