REMINGTON AUTO CASE WAS DECIDED

Plaintiff Fails -to Get Judgment On Claim Against Auto Sales Co.— Other Court Notes. The case of James H. Gilbert vs. Bonner, as receiver of Auto Sales Co., occupied Tuesday and Wednesday, being tried before a jury. The suit was on a claim of Gilbert against the partnership on account of rent v amounting to about $l,lOO, which was offset by an account making the total amount demanded $563.46. The defendant filed a croes-complaint alleging that James H. Gilbert, who assisted his son, who was one of the firm, in the sale of automobiles, had collected a large amount of money and notes and failed to account for same to the partnership. The evidence was a mass of papers and figures principally and one difficult for a jury to understand. Mr. Lough, cashier of the Bank of Remington, who was one of the witnesses, had to have a trunk to carry bank books, deposit slips and so on and brought the trunk into the court room. Out of all the evidence there were several disputed items aggregating about $2,500. The jury after about two hours' deliberation, rendered a verdict against the claimant. Neither did they give any judgment on the cross-complaint so the result is that the plaintiff gets nothing on his claim and the Auto Sales Co. thereby profits to the extent of $563.46. The plaintiff was represented by Jasper Guy and George A. Williams and the defendant by ChapWn & Blue. There is still an accounting pending between the partners in the Auto Sales Co., the firm being composed of Harry W. Gilbert, a son of the claimant in the case just tried, and Luce Bartoo. * , The Auto Sales Co. is still continuing business, James H. Gilbert hal - ing bought the stock of the receiver last spring and the business is now being conducted by James ff. Gilbert and his son, H. W. Gilbert, in the large brick garage on east side of the main street in Remington. <3. I. & S.*tt. R. Co. vs. McLaughlin. Cause continued by agreement. Hints vs Fess.

Eat Less Meat and Take Salts For Backache or Bladder Trouble. Uric acid in meat excitep the kidneys, they become overworked, get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy, the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them you’ll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kidney region, you suffer from backache, sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour,'tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water, also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts, take a tablespoonful in *f glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts it made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean dogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot injure, makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys dean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is * only trouble.

VOLIVA OBJECTS TO USE OF VACCINE

Gets Into Trouble With West Hammond Authorities By Circulating Literature There. Voliva, who succeeded Dowie at Zion City, has been in the limelight in West Hammond for the past few days. An epidemic of smallpox there caused a general vaccination. Voliva put in an appearance with literature declaring the vaccine used against smallpox as filthy and containing more trouble than the disease itself. A picture in the literature was of a girl alleged to have died from vaccine serum. Other pictures of cows hnd rattlesnakes tried to frighten people against vaccination. Voliva indulged in some harsh terms against the medical men. Tuesday elders in his church again entered West Hammond to pass circulars and the chief of police drove them out of town, compelling them to cross the line into Indiana. A mob assailed the Zionites and threatened to do them bodily harm if they did not cease the distribution of the literature. They were told that if they reappeared today they would get all that was coming to them.

The need for additional cottages to accommodate soldiers and their wives seeking admission to the state soldiers’ home, is emphasized in the annual report of the trustees and commandant of the institution just submitted to Governor Ralston.
