IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
_____
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Out Your
Kidneys and Neutralize Irri
tating Acids
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kjdneys filter this acid from the
s blood and pass it on to the bladder,
i where it often remains to irritate and
j inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting 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, the water passes sometimes with
a scalding sensation and is very pro
fuse: again, there is difficulty in avoid
ing it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination.
; While it is extremely annoying and
1 sometimes very painful, this is really
! one of the most simple ailments to over
come. Get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from >our pharmacist and take a
i tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast, continue this for two
or three days. This will neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer is a
source of irritation to the bladder and
! urinary organs which then act normally
j again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
! and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
: and is used bv 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.
I Here you have a pleasant, effcrves
: cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble. Adv.

RATHER CRUDE DISROBING
ACTIN 'MADAM PRESIDENT'
Fannie Ward as "Gobette," in a De
cidedly French Comedy. Has Diffi
culty in Freeing Herself of Gar
ment, as Plot of the Play Demands
Fannie Ward rud her company in
the three act farce comedy, "Madam
I'resident. ' undeniably provided
sprightly entertainment for a fairly
large audience ii> the Majestic last
night. The players were clever and
some strikingly funny situations were
well carried out. so that the audience
warmed up in its applause probably
more enthusiastically than at any pre
vious performance in the Majestic this
season. The action of the piece, how
ever, brought out some rather bold sit
nations in a way that was not entirely
devoid of crudities.
The play is described on the pro
gram as an adaptation from the French
of Maurice Hennequiu and Pierre Ycb
er by Jose G. Levy, and certain it is
that Mr. Levy did not eliminate any
of the situations that, at least in the
popular mind, are commonly associate 1
with French theatrical productions,
i'erhaps ''Madam President," as played
here last night, would have given the
gay French capital no more than a
passing thrill of sensationalism and
perhaps cosmopolitan Broadway could
have witnessed the show without a t'eel
iug that it was any more daring than
many other performances familiar to
the Great White Thoroughfare, but for
staid Harrisburg there were some parts
of the piece that produced at least a
mild shock.
If we are to admit that it was abso
lutely essential to the success of the
plot that the dress of the actress, "Go
bette," played by Miss Ward, should
fall off of her at mid-stage in the mid
dle of the second act, this might have
been accomplished with a little less
premeditated design than was really
the ease, for ''Gobette'' had actually
to struggle valiantly to free herself of
the garment so that she might be re
vealed in all the glory of her low-cut
lingerie that extended barely to her
knees. While the loss of her gowu
was supposed to be an accident, it real
ly required an apparent effort for her
to get rid of it.
There was something a bit crude
aibout this part of the performance, and
it might be added that the bold love
making scene between ''Gobette" and
"Cvprien Gauuet, the Minister of Jus
tice," played cleverly by John W.
Dean, also was a bit indelicate.
There is no denviiig that last night's
audience thoroughly enjoyed much of
the original humor of the piece an I
showed its enjoyment with liberal
handclapping. There are parts of. the
play that leave the impression that it
was a bit hurriedly constructed, not
ably the closing act, which brings
about a windup of the plot in a way
that everybody had tigure<l it out long
before the curtain fell.
For histrionic ability it can be said
of Miss Ward that she possesses plenty
of real art and that she made a very

the work as read.

Mr. Ohe»brough made a feeble attempt.
Mr. Rockefeller, however, went at the
work with spirit, soon got the hang of
it and persevered for two hours.

sweet note as any head in the wood
land. The robin lias no song and no
red breast. The native hen is the great

done for New Zealan4 what the kanga

for Australia—given it the suggestion
of oddity and the marvelous.

Our First Cent
The first American cent was struck
off and put in circulation in 1783. Pre
vious to that date pattern pieces had
been made, but they were experiments
only and were never put in Circulation.
The so called Washington cents, which
existed previous to the date above
given, were not issued by the govern
ment and were, therefore, only medals.
The cent of 1 793 was very similar to
the large copper cents of later date,
with the exception that the face of
Liberty was turned to the. ri>;ht and
the legend ''tine Cent" was enclosed
in a chaiu of thirteen links.
Corpuscles in Normal Blood
Normally there are approximately
6,000,000 red blood corpuscles in the
cubic millimeter. The number is tem
porarily diminished during fatigue and
after the ingestion of much fluid. Fast
ing and profuse sweating increase the
number of red blood cells by concen
tratiug the blood. In high altitudes
the number is also increased. There
are 5,000 to 10,000 white cells in the
cubic millimeter, the ratio of white to
red cells being about 1 to 500. Iu
health the blood amounts to about one
thirteenth of the body weight.
