No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fall to filter tho waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any phar macy; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with litliia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimu late the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so It no longer causes Irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful effer vescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications. -LADIES.. you will be more than pleased to ! own a copy of the W ioifred W ortb Crochet Book It contain* 65 stunning designs.

Arsenal- Needs Coal.— Officers o£ the state's military establishment were busy to-day hunting fuel for the State Arsenal, where equipment for the Reserve Militia is being as sembled and haversacks and other : ui tides manufactured. The Arsenal ! has only a lew days' supply left in tho bids and efforts were made to secure enough to insure operations. | The Capitol is not likely to be clos ; ed as the river coal on hand Will i last through tho winter. Precedents Set. —The .State Com ( pensation Board to-day handed down j a decision in the case of Haddock ] vs Edgewater Steel Co., Allegheny, I in which it is held that the widow is entitled to compensation for the death of her husband who was killed by an automobile while fin his way home from an out of town trip in the interest of his employer. The I case sets a precedent. The dead j man was a salaried employe, an en ; gineer and held to be "a skilled and i technical Employe receiving ! cient compensation to enable • the | employer to call for his contribution of expert . knowledge during any hour of the day or night. "He was i sent to another city and the fact that he started from the station for his residence instead ; of going direct to his employer's home at night is held by the board not to be a suffi j cient reason for setting aside an award based on the claim that he ; was in his employer's service. In j Martin vs AitJerican Car and | Foundry Co., Columbia, the Board ; says "The Compensation act docs l not contemplate that its adminlstra ] ti'on shall be retarded by the tech ' nicuiities of the pleader," and ! affirms an award. In Meach vs i Harleigh-Brookwoo d Coal Co., ! Northumberland, it is held that where permanent loss of an eye ha 3 been suffered there is no obligation of the employe to submit to an oper ; ation as offered by the employer. | Farmers' institutes in Fulton and other counties were'seriously inter- I rupted by the heavy snows during I this week according to reports com ing to the Capitol. In some in- I stances lecturers were unable to | reach the points of meeting.

Plan For Rebuilding of Swatara Creek Bridge Plans for the rebuilding of the bridge over the Swatara creek just west of Hummelstown on the main highway between Harrisburg and Reading, are being considered by the County Commissioners.

AGRICULTURE IS TO HOLD STAGE Big Meetings and Big Show Will Be Held in Harris burg During Next Weelc Final plans were announced to night for the meetings of the State Board of Agriculture and severt al lied organizations to be held here next week simultaneously with the state's second midwinter exhibition of Pennsylvania food products. Tho labor problem in its relation to .farms, soil conservation, marketing arrangements, fights against pests and providing of seed .corn are tho big subjects for discussion while there are chances of- interestiing po litical developments because the State Commission of Agriculture, which is at odds with the governor and Secretary of Agriculture Charles E. Patton will have a meeting here. The meeting of the State Board will probably be prolific of political discussion, especially as tho bills favored by members of tjie board for reorganization of the department of agriculture did not meet with state administration approval. The board's sessions will begin Tuesday when the other organizations will meet. Tho farm products show will be an exhibition of corn, fruit, potatoes, wool, butter, vegetables, eggs and dressed poultry entered by farmers from all sections of the state, in cluding the winning sepcimens from many of the county fairs. Prizes amounting to over SI,OOO and spe cial trophies will be awarded the winners in the various classes of competition. One of the features of the com mercial line will be the farm trac tors. Through the efforts of Secre tary of Agriculture Charles E. Pat ton, twelve tractor manufacturers will show twenty or more models of farm tractors which are coming into use on many of the farms of the state. The exhibits include most of the well known tractors particularly adapted to Pennsylvania farming conditions. There will be all kind 3 oX agricultural implements including field and dairy machinery, feeds, fertilizers, apiary accessories, horti cultural and poultry supplies. General interest has been created in the corn exhibit, and especially ' in the thirty ear class which is pro i vided for holders of seed corn. I There is in addition to the regular ! classes a sweepstake for the best ten ears in the show, a big ear class for the ten ears shelling the greatest ; quantity of grain and for the cham j pion ear of the-show. Last year the county exhibit creatad considerable ! interest and was won by Greene I county after a hard fight with I Chester county. This class consists ! of ten 10 ear exhibits. More interest is being taken in the .wool contest than ever before ana several hundred fleeces are ex pected to be sl\own. Creamery and aairy butter come in for judging and the granting of state honors. Of course the fruit show is always a big feature and the display of ap ples this year promises to be large and varied. The display of vegieta btes, potatoes, eggs and dressed poultry is also expected to be large. On Tuesday evening there will be a big joint meeting of all the asso ciations and addresses will be made by Governor Brumbaugh and C. W. Holman, of the United States Food Administration. On Wednesday eve ning at another joint meeting the farm labor question will be the sub ject of address by John A. McSpar ran, master of the State Grange, and Hon. Gifford Pinchot. Many impor tant subjects will be discussed at the meetings of the various agri cultural bodies and annual elections held by each. The More Sheep— More Wool association will devote the ehtire time Thursday discussing sheep raising. Birds and Reptiles Must Have Favorite Dainties There is no more extensive me nagerie In the world than the New York Zoological Park, which, com prises 360 acres of land and water. There are to be found 5,000 mens of birds, mammals and reptiles on exhibition in comfortable build ings, yards, dens and cages. With few exceptions this large family is fed once a day. To pro vide food for such a hungry army, with such differing tastes, is a prob lem. Especially is this true under present conditions, for the war has brought a change in the diet of some of the animals in the zoo. Their daily bill of fare may be said to ex tend from "A" to "Z," as the list of supplies distributed by the cook begins with apples and ends with zwieback. A detailed list of the foods con sumed in a year by these boarders would be a long one, but mention may be made of some of the prod ucts used. Fifty bushels of apples, 580 bunches of bananas, 80 pine apples, 30 pounds of raisins,. 20 boxes of oranges, 280 pounds of grapes, 4 0 peaches, 110 dozen pears, are the delicacies relished by ro dents, monkeys and birds, 30 water melons being enjoyed by the tor toises. The best hay obtainable forms the staff of life for the hoofed animals, being consumed in large quantities. The pelicans, herons, sea lions and some of the fur-bearing animals con sume large quantities of ilsh, an ag gravate of 48,000 pounds, large and small, and of various kinds, being required. The carnivorous animals are in the main fed on horseflesh, beef being at present too high-priced for gen eral use. There are delicate appe tites which must be satisfied among the boarders. The small birds re quire 100 pounds of dried flies and 10 pounds of mosquitoes. Certain other birds, and the lizards, thrive on 240,000 meal worms, 4,000 pounds of middlings, 1,000 pounds of rapeseed and 100 pounds of poppy seed. Zwieback, ground and mixed with other things, is fed to hum ming birds, 7,000 pounds of this product being used. The kitchen connected with the zoo is equipped with ranges hot water supply, .kettles, pots, pans, tables, meat blocks, double boilers and ice box; in fact, any hotel chef would feel at home with such an extensive and useful outfit. A slaughter house is located in the park, and also a hospital—the finest of its kind—provided with wards for animals wliicli must be Quarantined, an operating room, accommodations for nurses on night duty, a research room and a morgue. Numerous pic tiiires illustrate every phase of the wfii? community.— \Yilliam 1). Goodwin in Popular Me chanics.

Yesterday the store company re ceived two cars of coal and to-day two cars of coke were placed on the company's sidings. Orders are now being taken to supply fuel to cus tomers. More coal is expected dur ing the coming week. The coal and slaughter departments of the store company will remain open next Mon day, while the grocery and meat stores will close their doors at noon.

It was con structed in 1840, before there were railroads in this section, and it wa9 a part of tho thoroughfare from Tennessee to Alexandria, Va., and often twenty to thirty wagons could be seen in a line making the trip to and from the boats at Alexandria. The first toll was collected at Gate No. 1 by Simeon Hiilman, and he continued to collect toll until his death in 1860. From 1860 to 1862 the gate was kept by his widow, Charlotte Hiilman, when, on accoftnt of war conditions, the gate was abandoned until 1865. The house was, struck by a shell just before the battle of Kernstown. Tt was at this gate that Charlotte Hiilman held up General Sheridan and his staff. The general paid the regular toll for himself and his staff followed his example. "But," said the general as he passed through, "I cannot vouch for my army." When the soldiers came up Mrs. Hiilman raised the pole, but stood at her post all day long and kept tully and after the war she sent the bill to Washington and it was promptly paid. General Sheridan passed through this gate again on his famous ride from Winchester. "General Stone wall Jackson, in his valley cam paign, frequently paused through it, always paying toll.

Sunbury, noted for its quick response to the nation's call to colors, in every con flict since colonial days, is surprised at what they assert was either in difference or- too much official red tape of Federal military authorities in* their failure to send home the body of Sergeant Herbert E. Kauf maji, son of Mr. and Mrs. Max Kauf man, a soldier in the National Army at Camp Meade, Md„ who was killed by a train at Newport News, Va., last Saturday. Tho body was not received until Thursday night, and when it did come, no military escort accompanied it. Instead it was ship ped by express. The only other in formation, other than telling that it was on its way, was instructions that the family should "pay no cha'^s." First news of Kaufman's was received when a telegram came to the family last Sunday evening, telling of his having been killed by a train and asking for shipping in structions. These were wired the same night. Kaufman, who was 29 years old, with his four brothers, a large clothing store in the business section here.
