Small Band of Irregulars Gallantly Holding Back Advancing Bulgarians By Associated Press London. Dec. 4.—Monastir became untenable for the Serbs on Wednes day when the Bulgarians occupied Kanali on the railway between the Macedonian capital and the Greek frontier, cutting off Serbian retreat to the south, says the Saloniki corre spondent of the Times. Colonel Vas sitch's army now is retiring eastward over the only route open. Much of the credit for the long, and heroic defense of the town is' given to Colonel Boyaditch who placed himself at the head of four hundred irregulars who gallantly held back the advancing Bulgars whenever it became necessary for the main Serb J forces to retire. This small band of j Coniatadjis greatly troubled the Bul gars by its extreme mobility and knowledge of every inch of the! ground. QUIT MEATWHEN BACK HURTS OR KIDNEYS BOTHER Says Uric Acid in meat clogs Kidneys and irritates Bladder. A glass of Salts is harmless way to flush Kidneys, says authority. If you must have your meat every! day. eat It, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted au thority who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become slug- i gish and weaken, then you suffer with j a dull misery in the kidney region, I sharp pains in the back or sick head- j ache, dizziness, your stomach sours, j tongue is eoated and when the weath- 1 r r is bad you have rheumatic twinges. I The urine gets cloudy, full of sedi- 1 ment. the channels often get. sore I 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 it 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, combined with lithia, and | has been used for generations to flush j and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also> to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer Irritates, thus ending blad der weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive: cannot in jure, and makes a delightful efferves cent lithia water drink. —Advertise- ment. Medicated Smoke Drives Out Catarrh Try This Pleasant Herb Smoke.

Citizens of Italian birth. Croat ians. Serbians and men wlio dutm Germany as their Fatherland, forgetting the quarrels of their native lands iu the present European melee, met with prominent businessmen and civic leaders in the council chamber to plan the big affair. Every nationality in the borough was represented—or has been asked to send representatives at the next meeting. Tillrty-five-Foot Tree This cosmopolitan committee de cided to have a towering, 35-i'oot Christmas tree erected either oil the Locust street steps or on the High school campus. This will be the Com munity Tree and will be the hub around which the entire week's festivities will revolve. On the night before Christmas, the committee decided, the celebration will open with singing by a big chorus including all the singers in the borough. This choir will alternate with a chorus of school children under the direction of Professor William M. ilurelerode, supervisor of music in the borough schools. The Steelton band will also likely give a concert this evening and there will be one short speech by some prominent citi zen. The speech won't be long be cause tiie committee merely wants the speaker to present the tree to the borough in behalf of the Civic Club and to have it accepted in a few words by some representative citizen. The second, third, fourth and prob ably ilfth evenings of the celebration will be given over to the foreign-born citizens and those who have not yet become citizens. On one evening the German people will have complete charge of the program: on another the Croatians, or Italians or Serbians —each to have a full evening. It is the plan to have each national ity celebrate their evening just as Christmas is observed in their old homes across the sea. If they want to parade, why. alright; if they want to sing, tine, and if they desire to have some dancing, well and good. And an effort will be made by the commit tee to have all the beautiful folk dances of Europe included in the af fair. It will likely lie one of the features of the festivities to see two long, sinuous lines of foreign-born Americans, with hands linked, sway ing back and forth from one side of the street to the other in the serpent like folk dances that feature the Christmas festivities across the seas. Representatives of the various na tionalities promised to urge as many of their people to celebrate as possible and additional committees will be ap pointed as soon as possible to com plete the arrangements. To Organize Big Chorus All singers in the borough have been requested to meet in the High school auditorium Tuesday evening at 7:50 o'clock when the lirst plans for the big chorus will be made.

"My, but you were carrying on. Did you eat any thing you should not have?" "No'in," said Plumpy, as he hung his head.

"He'll get you into worse trouble all the time. When you've done somehing wrong—go and tell the truth about it, then you'll be so niuch happier. "Who are you?" asked Plumpy, of the plaintive voice.

But Plumpy would not listen, lie went out instead and threw a ball against the side of the house just as hard as ever he could, and after a while he teased his little sister till he made her cry, and then he tor mented his mother until she looked so sad and weary, and still he felt worse and worse. "Say. old Gnome Deceit. I'm doing what you told me to," said Plumpv, and S 1 feel t0 " mean for words." On, please do what I said Instead," pleaded the voice of Fairy Confession.
