IF KIDNEYS AND
UgBOTHEI
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys
and Neutralize Irritating
Acids
Kidnoy and Bladder weakness re
sult from uric acid, savs a noted au
thority. The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass it on to the
bladder, where it often remains to
irritate and inflame, causing a
burning, scalding sensation, or set
ting up an irritation at the neck of
the bladder, obliging you to seek
relief two or three times during the
night. The sufferer is in constant
dread, tho water passes lometimea
with a scalding sensation and is very
profuse; again, there is difficulty in
avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina
tion. While It Is extremely annoy
ing and sometimes very painful, this
is really one of the most simple ali
ments to overcome. Get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from your
pharmacist and take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before break
fast, continue this for two or three
days. This will neutralize the acids
lt> the urine so it no longer is a
source of irritation to the bladder
and urinary organs, which then act
normally again.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with lith
la, and is used by thousands of folks
who are subject to urinary disorders
caused by uric acid irritation. Jad
Salts is splendid for kidneys and
causes no bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, effer
vescent, lithla-water drink, which
quickly relieves bladder trouble.

STEAMER LETTER
MADE BOYS HAPPY
1
Fourteen Different Missives
Written by Miss Hamill
Welcomed on Transports
I
The Telegraph herewith publishes j
one of a series of what were known
during the war as steamer letters.
These letters were distributed among
the soldiers ou army transports by
war workers in order to amuse und
divert the doughboys on their tire
some trip over. This particular one,
railed the "Small Sister" letter, is
one of the fourteen written by Miss
Llla A. Hamill, of Harrisburg:
"Dear Brother Bob:
"The family is in the library writ
i ing you steamer letters. 1 urn or- j
dered out 'cause sister Anne said j
"you are too young to write a ,
steamer letter and hear family com
ments."
"1 am in the best room in the
house—your room. And 1 have your
dictionary. Now 1 am ready to spell
anything. Daddy promised to en
close my letter. That's one on Bis.
Anne will not censor it. She is crasy
about correct English and you kuow
after she would read my letter there
wouldn't be any letter.
"Heaps o' folks come before Peggy
but I, too, have some important
things to write you.
"Jack and Ned and sister Betty
are now in France and you will
soon sail. Mother Is very well. Her
head is very high—the American
way—while her heart Is aching for
her four children In this ghastly
(isn't that a great word Bob?) war.
Then father —all I can tell you, he is
the proudest "Dad" in Pennsylvania.
| Anne is a Jewel in everything shs
I tackles. She is too much for me.
j I will never reach her. So 1 can't
i write about her. You see 1 am num
ber seven in family valuation. But
your Peggv has some things to
I write, dear to you, to give you happy
thoughts.
"Do you remember how you could |
make better soldiers than the other
fellows? You could take a piece of
wood and with your penknife make
soldiers that would sicken and chill
even old Kaiser Bill. Y'ou will make
the best human soldier I know. Y'ou
and I played toy soldiers —and now
'tis not playing. 'Tis real war. I |
want to be big and do big things. |
And I know 1 can when I have a
loyal brother Bob. Every time that
old lump comes up in my throat
since you are gone—-I say Peggy,
you weak little pill. And then 1
swallow and swallow until It goes
down aemewhere.
"Listen—X had the best fight with
my chum Teddy. He said "his
brother Bill would go "Over the
Top" before my brother Bob. 1
wrecked his face. It looked like that
berry pie on our last fishin' trip.
Y'ou bet Anne punished me, but I
am glad I trimmed him 'cause his
remark was a slam on you.
"I am knitting for the soldiers
like a machine gun. Anno rips out
but I rip in and I hope to finish
a scarf and sweater soon. Are you
proud of Peggy? But the best I am
doing constantly and can do as sin
cerely and almost as devoutly as
mother, —praying for you, Bob
dear.
"Don't worry about your dog
Racer. You know I will care for
him —perhaps too tenderly. When I
need you heaps, I close my eyes,
wrap my arms around your Racer's
neck and hug him until 1 almost
wreck him. And your chickens.
. 'Spose I'm too attentive to them
since you are gone. X stuff them
with feed (war prices too) until
they roll. And all your old pipes.
1 cleaned them. Gee whizz, Bob but
they were strong. But I cleaned -
them like a soldier cleans his boots.
i "Dorothy's brother was home last
weekend from Washington. Dorothy
said "he cannot go to France 'cause
he is needed in office." X told Dor
othy (after he was gone) he is a
"Chair Cootie." She thrashed me
until I was crippled for two hours.
I Y'ou cannot blame her for beating
i me and you cannot blame me for
■("telling her the truth." Of course
J Anne punished me and said 'twas
an ignoble (whatever that is) re
* mark.
i "My heart Is so full of love and
• honest pride for you Bobsie, that I
fear It will soon explode. We prom
g ised to not let you see tears In our
j eyes at parting, but you could not
I see the tears In our hearts,

i love—real love. Your own rompln',
! rippin', lovln' PEGGSIB.

HARRISBtTRG t®S§B>S TELEGRAPH
CUPID'S RIGHT BOWER
IN A. E. F. DISCOVERED
That cheery, plump, young fellow
whose business pertains to the tying
—and frequently tangling—of true
lover's knots, has. thanks to the war,
ucquired an able and experienced
assistant. Dan Cupid, according to
statistics, went overseas with our
gallant Army while his assistant re
mained at home to look after heart
interests in this country.
He is a quiet young man, this sec
retary of Cupid's, and the delicate
scent of orange blossoms and the
faint tinkling of wedding bells per
vade his well-ordered office at 461
Fourth avenue, New York city.
Whether Deo P. Begley, head of
the Knights of Columbus Matri
monial Bureau, has any romantic il
lusions about the work, fs a matter
of doubt. He regards it as a job.
The little God of Dove had a busy
time In the quaint villages where
our boys were stationed, for every
body knows that congenial com
panionship and proper stage-settings
are conducive to romance. Is It any
wonder, then, that many a home
sick lad responded to the sympa
thetic kindness of a pretty little
Ally? And when he proposed, and
the answer was a shyly whispered
"oui," his Joy was boundless.
Parents Satisfied
But —an amazing number of those
charming French girls were the
possessors of stern parents who,
while regarding the Yankees with
appreciative admiration, neverthe
less Insisted upon knowing some
thing about the family and char
acter of the would-be bridegrooms.
The young man who aspired to the
daughter's hand must prove himsolf.
No, his army rating counted for
nothing. Ho must be vouched for
by those who were well acquainted
with him—by those who knew htm
better than the Government —before
he could carry off the daughter of
the household as his bride. What
could a poor boy do? Watchful
waiting, heartfelt sighs, appeared to
be his lot.
The French government became
interested in the situation und ap
pointed Julien Knecht, brother of
Dr. Marcel Knecht, French commis
sioner, us their representative, as
signing him the colossal task of ob
taining information regarding the
standing of American soldiers who

desired to marry French women —
the investigation to be made only
where the tamlly of the Woman to
be married applied either to the
government authorities or the
Knights of Columbus ift France. On
the other hand, tho K. of C. Paris
ottice sent information to New York
concerning the girl and her relatives
which was relayed to the folks of
the soldier who contemplated matri
mony. In all cases the soldier wus
a willing party to the cross-investi
gations. In no case would the
Knights give their services unless
either American or French parents
had requested Information regard
ing their prospective daughters and
sons-in-law.
And here is where the K. of C.
renders first-aid to the lovelorn;
turns the spotlight—most confiden
tially—on the honor, morality and
religion of the man In question;
sends the desired information over
the seas to Mr. Knecht, who, in turn,
and also in strictest confidence, de
livers the message to tho family who
applied for same. The majority of
cases have resulted in a wedding
march, the bridal pair accompanied
by the parental blessing.
Headquarters In Paris
1 Mr. Knecht's office is at the
Kngbts of Columbus headquarters in
Paris, and It was through this or
ganisation that Information regard
ing future husbands of French wives
was obtained. Each cose wus Indi
vidually referred to the New York
headquarters of the K. of C. by Mr.
Knecht, where 'it was carefully
tabulated and a special form com
piled, requesting Information re
garding the honor, morality and re
ligion of the man mentioned, and
was sent to the Grand Knight of the
Council in which territory the sol
dier lived.
Oftentimes the quest seemed
hopeless but the Knights were not
easily daunted. In out-of-the-way
sections of the country where no
council was located, the blank was
referred to the K. of C. State dep
uty, who, after a thorough though
fruitless search, passed the Inquiry
on to the district deputy of the or
ganization. In many cases the sol
dier's home was in a particularly
; isolated spot and the Knights were
obliged to seek the aid of the post
master In locating the man.
The matrimonial bureau Is not
without Its humor and one can
readily Imagine how Interesting the
mail must be. 80 zealously do the
Knights guard this correspondence
that each letter is carefully tiled
away from curious eyes. He has
handled almost a thousand requests
and has been able to report favor
ably In nearly every Instance. Sur
prisingly few fictitious names were
given by the boys and only eight
who desired to acquire foreign
wives were already married.
When information regarding a
colored soldier reached Prance and
he was accused of contemplating
bigamy, he frankly admitted that
of course he was married and had a
fine wife and six children back home
in Tennessee but he liked France
and had hoped to settle down there
with a new wife.
Another boy, formerly a bell-hop
In a Southern hotel, was astounded
when glad tidings reached him—via
the affectionate demonstrations of
his prospective father-in-law —that
he, a Yankee private, was now a
rich man. Before the war he had
purchased a small plot of ground In
Oklahoma and although he was un
aware of it. oil was being developed
on property adjoining his holdings.
They K. of C. reported the facts of,
his sudden wealth, together with
excellent accounts of the young
man's character, and an elaborate
wedding followed.
So deeply do the authorities ap
preciate the Invaluable service ren
dered their people by this particular
branch of the Knights of Columbus
that the organization has been re
peatedly and enthusiastically con
gratulated by the French govern
ment.

FTIiMS WILL, SHOW TRAINING |
How o man blln<l in both eyes and ■
minus both hands was trained to be- j
come an expert drug salesman, was;
but one of the feats performed under |
nte direction of the Federal Board
of Vocational Education to be shown
in the motion pictures.
Henry Ford wil make a film of
the work of the board, tils cunieru
man will be sent into the training
school to tnke picftures of the men
in actual training. The pictures will
show men in the receiving stations,
on the farms, in the factories, schools
and colleges.
It will be shown In every town in
the United .States where there is a
picture theater. It Is estimated
that the picture will reach sixteen
million people each week.
Parents of the boys who gazed
upon what they believed to be hope
less wrecks when those boys re
turned home after whipping the Hun
have a great surprise in store for
them. When the Ford educational
films begin to show how these same
supposed wrecks arc being resur
rected and restored to usefulness,
then and only then will the true
work of the Federal Board bo fully
understood.
The film will be completed and
distributed among the many picture
houses during the holidays. Friends
and relatives of the boys receiving
such training will be able to see
young men they know in actual train
ing.
