GLASS OF SALTS IF YOUR KIDNEYS HURT

Eat Less Meat If You Feel Backachy Or Have Bladder Trouble.' Meat forms uric acid which excites and overworks the kidneys in their efforts to filter it from the 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 poison, else you feel a dull fnisery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sic kheadache, 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 fine and bladder disorders (disappear. This famous salts is made from the acids of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys and stop bladder irritation. Jpd 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.

COMRADE CHARLES FOX NOT GUILTY

Newton County Jury Decides That Mail Carrier Was Not Guilty of Selling Whiskey. Comrade Charles Fox,' government mail carrier, who was charged with sellnig whiskey, was vindicated by a Newton county jury Monday when his case was called for trial and he is as jubilant as. a boy wearing his first pair oPboots. Oct. 15th of last year a raid Was made on Comrade’s domicile facing the railroad and near the old depot location. The officers found five quarts of whiskey. The raid had been prompted by reports that had reached the ears of Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Sandajthat Comrade was running a sort of “speak easy” at his place. It was supported by the fact that he was receiving packages of express every few days that had all the earmarks of whiskey and which seemed too much for one person to consume. The officers, however, were unable to find any one to testify that Comrade had ever sold any and the evidence was therefore wholly circumstantial. After his arrest Comrade talked with considerable freedom

about his rights and said that he had just as good a right to sell it as any one else and that others were selling it about town, but in no conversation did he admit that he actually did sell any and the jury probably did the only thing that could have been done, for there was not the cinching testimony needed in a trial of this kind. Attorney William Darroch, of Kentland, heard the cast. Moses Leopold defended Comrade, who is today wreathed in smiles. In defending himself to a reporter for The Republican he said: “I’m too d smart for them. If I gave a drink or sold a drink of whiskey to any person and they told on me they would be a pretty cheap s.. of a b.., wouldn’t they ? People talk too much. That damned prosecutor said he didn’t have anything but circumspectional evidence and he didn’t have. He tried to make fun of my place of residence and we beat him at his own game, but I’ve learned a lessen and that is not to talk too damned much.” Comrade pursued this line of talk as long as the reporter remained to listen. The chief burden of his argument was that the standing of a man in the community would be ruined if he induced him to either give or sell him a drink of whifekey and then informed the officers about it. Such ingratitude, according to Comrade, would just naturally ruin a man forever.

RENSSELAER, INDIANA. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1915.

James MoClanahan Raised Some Big Wolf River Apples.

This would have been a great year for an apple show. The famous northwest certainly never had a finer crop of apples than we have right here in Jasper county and farmers are doing more to save and market them than has been the case in many previous years. The Wolf River apple is a prolific bearer in this section and there are a large number of the trees. James McClanahan, of Union township, had quite a crop of this kind of apple and this week brought four large ones to The Republican office. One of the apples weighed 19 ounces and each of the others weighed a strong pound. Michael Ringeisen has a variety of kinds and has found a good market for them at 50 cents a bushel. He had them hand picked and we have never seen nicer apples in Rensselaer. The editor of The Republican bought ten bushels and they were packed as carefully as any expert ever packed apples, not a bruised one in the lot. They are'almost as solid as rocks and are large, smooth and free from any imperfection. As usual few were prepared to take care of their apples and the waste is enormous. There has been a late scramble for barrels and

the demand far exceeds the supply. At 50 cents a bushel apples furnish very cheap food and every cellar in Rensselaer and vicinity should have a big supply. It will mean a saving of a good many dollars before next summer. Farmers who have apples should in the interest of economy make it known by advertising the fact in the newspapers and those who do not have apples should buy a few bushels.

DR. HURTY NOT TO VISIT RENSSELAER

Writes City Health Officer He Is Sure His Work Is All Right and Recommends Vaccination. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health, who had been askfid by the school board to visit Rensselaer and pass judgment on the measures of prevention againkt a spread of the smallpox, (will not come here at this time as was expected, but instead has written letters to George A. Williams, of the school board, and Dr. M. D. Gwin, secretary of the city, board of health, in which he expresses confidence that the local health authorities will handle the situation all right and stating that unless called by the local heath officer he will probably not come.

The cogent argument of Dr. Hurty was for widespread vaccination as the only sure means of eradication and he said that unless this was done there was reason to expect that the disease would linger here all through the. winter and might develop in a serious form. Dr. Hurty went so far as to encourage the passage of a compulsory vaccination ordejr by the city council and that an appropriation be made by the council for free vaccination as ah emergency. No new cases are reported today and the five cases in four families in Rensselaer are all substantially well and will be out within a few days. Notwithstanding this fact it is wished to impress the fact on every person that the certain plan of preventing the spread is through vaccination and all should have this done, young and • old alike.

Mrs. Mollie Ward Butler, Of Monticello, Married Again.

■The Monticello Journal of October 18th had the following account of the marriage of Mrs. Mollie Ward Butler, who has many friends in this city: “This evening at 4 o’clock occurred the wedding of Mrs. Molly Ward Butler, of this city, to Dr. Henry W. Greist, a prominent surgeon of Caspar, Wyoming. The wedding took place at the home of the bride’s father, Capt. G. B. Ward, Rev. LaCount, of Lagrange, an intimate friend of Dr. Greist, officiating. About forty relatives and intimate friends of the couple witnessed the ceremony. Following the wedding service Dr. and Mrs. Greist met their friends in an informal reception, after which a luncheon was served. The couple will leave on the 6:09 train for Chicago and after a few days’ stay in that city will go on to Casper, Wyo., where Dr. Greist has been residing. It is their intention to return to Monticello some time in the near future and take up their residence here. “Mrs. Greist is a woman of many charming qualities with a large circle of friends in the city. Her hu*band is a physician whose ability is widely known, and should they carry out their intention to return to Monticello to reside, their decision will be greeted with pleasure by local people."
