TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH KIDNEYS Eat less meal if you feel Backachy or Bladder troubles you — salts is fine for Kidneys. Meat forma uric acid which excites and overworks the kidneys in their efforts to filter it from th'e system. Regular eaters of meat must flush the kidneys occasionally. You must relieve them like you relieve your bowels; removing all the acids, waste and piisou, else you feel a dull mis- , ery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment; the channels often get irritated, obliging you to get up two or three times during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids and flush off the body's urinous waste get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act line and bladder disorders disappear. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and makes a delightful effervescent lithiawater drink which millions of men and women take now and then, thus avoiding serious kidney and bladder diseases.

LESSON FOR FEBRUARY 19 ELISHA AND NAAMAN THE SYRIAN LESSON TEXT—LI King* 5:1-27. GOLDEN TEXT—Blew the Lord, O my •out, and forget not all hl* benefit*: Who forglveth all thine Iniquities, who healeth all thy diseases.— Pa 108:2. 1. REFERENCE MATEHLAL-LuX* 4:1580; 6:12-14. PRIMARY TOPIC—A UUla Girl Halting. JUNIOR TOPIC—A Young Girl's Bsrvloe. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Elisha Helping a Foreigner. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —How to Overcome National and Racial Prejudice* I. Naaman’s Fatal Defact (v. 1). He was a great man, but a leper. He was held in high esteem by the king, because through him the Syrians had been delivered from their enemies. He was not only a capable general, but was a very brave man — valorous. Every unregenerate man. regardless of his gifts and possessions, has this one fatal defect. He may be a mighty warrior, a great orator, a gifted writer, a man of profound learning, an honorable statesman, but if he is an unbeliever in Christ, he is a lost sinner—a leper. Leprosy is a type of sin. Note its characteristics: Loathsome, hereditary, infectious, separating, destructive, deceitful, incurable by man. 11. The Faithful Witness (vv. 2-4). This was a Jewish maid who had been captured by marauding Syrian troops who made frequent Incursions into Israel's land for the purpose of plunder. Daniel at a later date was carried away captive, and he likewise was used of God to bless many. Joseph is another example of one who was put into a hard place, but became a blessing to others, even to the saving of his brothers, who sold him. This Jewish maid pointed out to this great man the One who could heal him. Many are the persons who have been pointed to Christ as the Healer of souls by children. 111. Naaman Seeking the Healer (w. 5-9).

1. He goes with a letter of introduction and great gifts (v. 5). In the East valuable gifts are taken along when in quest of some favor. In this ease the value was perhaps $90,000. 2. He goes to the wrong place (vv. 0,7). The maid did not suggest that If Naaman would be with the king he would be recovered of his leprosy, but with the prophet of God. We should be very careful that we go to the right place with our troubles and slu». Neither the king’s power nor Naaman's money could avail anything In this case. The prophet of God can bring greater blessing than kings and rich men. 3. Nhaman at the door of Elisha (vv. 8,9). Elisha, upon learning of the king's embarrassment, sent to him, saying, “Let him come now to me.” Naaman appeared before Elisha’s door in great splendor. He did not come as a suppliant, but as one who could pay a goodly sum for healing. IV. Naaman Healed (vv. 10-15). 1. Elisha's message (v. 10). Go wash In Jordan seven times. 2. Naaman’s anger (vv. 11, 12). He thought that Elisha should have shown deference to him. People today think that their rank and wealth entitle them to different treatment by God. They turn away from the humble way of the Cross, God's method of salvation. Rich and poor, high and lew are alike In God's sight. Reasonings of the flesh must be supplanted by the obedience of faith. 8. Naaman’s obedience (vv. 13, 14). Through the earnest entreaty of his servants his pride and prejudice were overcome, and he did what the prophet commanded. The result of his obedience was that his flesh “came again us the flesh of a little child.” 4. Naaman acknowledges Jehovah (v. 15). After his cleansing he came again to the prophet and said, “Now I know that there is no God In all the earth, but In Israel.” The vital point of teaching in this lesson Is how nearly Naaman missed being healed. The three enemies which almost kept him from being healed were: (1) Pride (v. 11). He was Insulted because the man of God did not come out to such a distinguished man as he was. (2) Preconceived opinion (v. 11). “I thought.” Many sinners procrastinate because they have preconceived opinions as to how God ought to save. (3) Prejudice (v. 12). Rivers of Damascus are better than Jordan. Countless thousands are lost by these enemies. God has provided only one way to save men from their sine -the way of the Cross. The Dove and Jesus. Now when all the people were baptized, It came to paw, that Jesus also being baptized, and prnyipg, the heaven was opened, and the Holy Ghost descended in bodily shape like n dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.—Luke 8:21 -22. The Unrighteous. The ways of peace have they not known: there is no fear of God before their eyes.—Romans 3:17-18.

NOTICE TO BEE KEEPERS The department of conservation division of entomology in the state of Indiana is planning on a thorough inspection of every colony of bees in the state and to this end have secured the services of several new men for this work in the hopes of putting the bees in better shape for com batting foul brood which is fast destroying our bees in many localities. This disease has become so prevalent in some localities that the bees have become almost extinct. This is due largely to neglect in the way of keeping them in poor hives, such as kegs, boxes or makeshift hopfe made hives that can not be taken apart and looked after. This disease is fatal if left alone and is also very contagious to other bees when they come in contact with it. It is the wish of the department to have all bee keepers use uniform hives having movable frames so they can be readily taken apart and looked after by the owner or by those in charge of this work. This work is taken care of by the department free to the bee keepers and their services should be appreciatd enough by those having bees. I that they will co-operate with those iin charge. The bee industry is no small factor in the production of food stuffs in our country and deserves better attention than it has received In the past. Even as a luxury it deserves more attention than it has In the past. In order to create more of an interest in the state meetings arc be ing held in every county to the end that permanent organizations are being formed, through which bee keepers will be able to buy their supplies much cheaper than they have been paying for them in the past. A meeting of this nature has been called in Adams county for Saturday. February 25th, at the county agent’s office, Decatur, Indiana, at 2 o'clock. Al! interested in this enterprise are invited to be present. The state bee inspector Mr. C. O. Yost, will be here and will assist in any way he can by answering any questions you may uave to at>k. Come a'uu bring your neighbor with you. W. B. FONNER.

NEW CLOSED CAR PLANT FINISHED Facilities for Sedan and Coupe Production Provided by Dodge Bros. A definite expectation of an unusually heavy demand for the sedan and coupe throughout the year |!V dicated by Dodge Brothers recent completion on an immense new closed body plant. The production capacity is said to have been practically doubled dealers are being assured that the factory will do its utmost to keep apace with the mflal rush of spring and summer orders. Despite the most strenuous efforts such as a greatly enlarged working force and long night shifts, it was possible to catch up with the demand tor several months after the improved typo of sedan and coupe made their appearance last fall. From this enthusiastic reception of the improved < ars it was evident that much greater facilities would be required, with the natural result that the new closed body plant was hurried to completion in anjple time to meet the combined emergency brought about by spring and a sharp price reduction. With the straight sweeping body lines, disc wheels and custom windows in the improved sedan, Dodge Brothers seent to have considered th. motorists’ every desire in design and in comfore features. Cleanly chiseled body lines, which flow squarely backward from the cowl, strike the observerer with their simple beauty. The windows are square cut in design and further enhance the straight graceful silhouette of the body. Considerably lower, the whole ensemble in its outward appearance immediately impresses one with its dignity and harmony of design. The disc wheels are done in black enamel with cream stripe and hide from view the springs and other tinnerneath parts. The disc wheels may be removed with facility and are easily cleaned. The brilliant lustre of the sedan’s exterior finish is familiar to all owners of Dodge Brothers motor cars. In the interior appointments, the sedan leaves little to be desired. Deli eately striped mohair velvet is used in upholstering the wide, commodious rear seat. In front is a deep,wide solid seat with rounded sides, also trimmed in the striped material. The four doors, which permit easy entrance and exit from any part of the sedan, are upholstered witit plain mohair velvet in a soft fawn-gray. Combined with the heavily nickeled handles by which the windows are easilyraised or lowered, this adds a richness cf tone which can hardly be adequately described. The windows in the doors and body are garnished with natural black walnut and are of polished plate glass. The body of the car is equipped with Yale locks, affording additional protection against theft and insuring the safekeeping of bundles and other articles when shopping. Handy side pockets, arm rests and windshield cleaner are other conveniences of the improved Dodge Brothers sedan. Other notable refinements are weather strips inside the doors, as an extra protection in unpleasant weather, anti-rattlers on the windows and a body heater connected with the exhaust.

LAUDER AT MAJESTIC TONIGHT At one of Sir Harry Lauder’s performances in London last spring, several hundred veterans of the World war, many of them still suffering from wounds received in Franco and Belgium, occupied front seats as guests of the famous comedian. “Laddies.” he said, “I brought ye here beause I wanted to sing to ye just as I did in the sair days o’ confleect out in yon trenches!” And then, in order to make the scene as reminiscent as possible, the stage hands brought out the little traveling organ that Lauder had transported all along the French and Flanders front on the back of a lord "flivver”, a soldier lad sat down at the keyboard, and for an hour the little Scot apparently forgot the rest of the audience and sang the best and most exhilarating songs in his repertoire to the enthusiastic veterans. Lauder will sing some of these songs at tile Majestic, Fort Wayne, Saturday, February 18. _ s “THE BAT” AT THE MAJESTIC V, agenhals & Kemper's production of “The Bat", by Mary. Roberts Rhinehart and Avery Hopwood will be presented at the Majestic Theatre at Fort Wayne, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night and Wednesday matitiee b.v a b'-iiiant cast. . This is the pay, conceded by all to be the greatest success in years. This

i. the play about which there has been more discussion than any other pay produced in a generation or more. "The Bat" comes to Fort Wayne witit a remarkable record for popularity. It has played for more than a year at the Morocco Theatre, New York, (and it is still there). Simultaneously, another company broke every existing theatrical record in Chicago by playing at the Princess Theatre, that city, for one solid year. These are facts to conjure with..
