BEGIN ON SALTS AT FIRST SiGN OF KIDNEY PAIN /"We eat too much meat, which clogs Kidneys, then the back hurts. Says glass of Salts flushes Kid neys and ends Bladder irritation. Uric acid in meat excites the kid neys. they become overworked; get siuggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy: the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kidney region, you suffer from back ache, sick headache, dizziness, stom ach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and vour kidneys will then act fine. This fa mous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal ac tivity. also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weak ness. Jad Salts Is inexpensive, cannot injure; makes a delightful effer vescent lithia-water drink which ev eryone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble. |jj Try Making Your Own K Cj Cough Remedy Cj Too ran care a boot ft, and hare |fl pj a better remedy than the ready- In iQ made kind.

Wayne, laci, TUESDAY EVENING, SELECTED MEN EAGER TO FIGHT Do Not Care What Their Job Is, So They Get to France Quickly Washington, Oct. 30.—Most of thej young men called for service in tho: National Army want to go to Prance! as fighting men and they want to get j there quickly. Reports from live or six of the big' training camps, Secretary Baker an-1 nounced, showed that when asked j what they want ft) do the great ma jority of the selected men say they don't care what their job is to be just so they get to France among the first, and then when given a choice between the combatant and non combatant branches most of them, elect to be fighters. Boys Arc All Right "The boys at the front and getting l ready to go there are all right," is ■ the verdict of the Secretary, who re- i cently visited several training camps j in the East and South. "Our nation need have nothing but j mounting pride at the spectacle they, present. "In these camps," said Mr. Baker's| statement, "each man is asked: 'What do you want to do?' I have] had reports from live or six of the i largest camps and they show that the • majority answered in effect: 'I don't; care what I do so I get to France among the first.' The next question I asked them is: 'What branch of the l service do you prefer?' Now, one, who didn't know America would ex- | pect thenx to say: 'Weil, I have been working in a store:' 'I have been a' hand on a farm;' 'I have been a mechanic;' 'I have been a clerk;' 'I! don't know much about guns and • cannon, perhaps some one of the noncombatant places is the place! where I can render the best service.' But what is the fact? They Want to Fight "These sons and brothers, drawn | out of life by selection—more than j onc-tliird have asked to go into the infantry service. The next choice is the light artillery; the next is the heavy artillery service; the next is the aviation service. •JSo that what they asked for In a tremendously predominating major ity of instances is, not the noncom batant service for which their pre vious experience might well qualify them, but the fighting branch, so that they can take the risk of fighting for their country with the real weap ons of war. The boys at the front and getting ready to go are all right. Our nation need have nothing but mounting pride at the spectacle they present." Every Man's Life History The gathering of information as to the men's preference for service is but a small part of the work of classifying the National Army men* that is "being carried on under thel direction of the Committee on Classi fication of Personnel in the Army. Virtually the life history of every man is set down by means of an elaborate card system, the original being sent to the divisional head quarters, where a division personnel officer studies the answers given and classifies the selected man according to his capabilities. The othfer copy is kept in the company records. Questions asked include extent .of schooling, what foreign languages the men speak, their preference as to branch of service, whether married or single, what was their previous trade, job or occupation, name of last employer, wage received, and in what work they have been most pro ficient. It is within the province of the personnel officer to recommend transfers from one comapny to an other to fill up deficiencies in expert men, such as gunsmiths and the like. 130,000 Books Circulated During the Past Year by City's Public Library One hundred and thirty thousand books were circulated among citizens of this city by the Harrisbiirg Pub lic Library during the past year. This is the announcement made by Miss Alice R. Eaton, of the Harrisburg Public Library, this morning. "It shows," she said, "an increase of 6,000 books circulated during the fiscal year. Harrisburgers are beginning to pay more attention to books. The trend of the reading public is toward the deeper things of life, and not for the lighter fiction." Ten thousand books and many thou sands of magazines were sent by the local- library as the Keystone State's contribution to the libraries of men in French trenches, during the past month. Alricks Association to Hold Patriotic Rally Members of the Alricks Association will rally 'round the flag in St. An drew's parish house, at 7:30 o'clock next Friday evening. Sergeant John K. Blake, director of publicity for the United States Army recruiting ser vice in this district, will be the speaker of the evening. The Alricks Association has had a couple of informal conferences this fall, but Friday night's affair is to be a "real meetln'," with patriotism as the keynote. Patriotic songs and other appropriate features will make up a program on which Sergeant\ Blake's talk will be the principal item. As virtually all of the members of the Alricks Association are connected with other organizations which have taken, some part in local demonstra tions, it has not turned out as a body in any of Ilarrlsburg's parades or taken part in any other work. Its members have been busy, however, and the United States forces to-day include numerous members of this body. Aviator's Wife Fined For "Pajama Parades" Pittsburgh, Oct. 30. Parading through the corridors of a big city hotel in pink pajamas is no business for a woman, according to the verdict of Police Magistrate Sweeney, who fined Mrs. Catherine Borden. the "girl in the pink pajamas," wife of an Army aviator now stationed at New port News, $25. with the alternative of spending thirty day in the work house. "r am imposing this fine, Mns. Bor den, not solely to protect the man agement of the hotel against persons who misbehave as you have, but also for my own protection." said the magistrate, who then explained that his room was directly opposite from that occupied by Mrs. Borden. and from which she flitted nightly in her pajama parade. Mrs. Borden's parades were made in the corridors of the Anderson Hotel. EXAMINING SCHOOL CHILDREN. Blain, Pa., Oct. 30.—Dr. E. C.
