HIGH TIDES SWEEP INLAND Great Damage Done on Coasts of Normandy and Brittany. PARIS, March 16. A terrific gale and the highest tide of the year yes terday worked great havoc along the coasts of Normandy and Brittainy. Huge waves dashed to an unusual height against the ramparts of Mont Saint Michel, on which is situated the famous old Benedictine Abbey, and the' gardens and fields in Avrancheo Ge-nest-and other villages and towns on the coast were flooded. The damage at Dieppe was great. A large portion of the promenade was wrecked and harbor improvements un der construction were destroyed.

SUPPORTING CAST IS GOOD Entire Orphcum Bill Has Artistic Worth Singing, Farce Playlet, Musical Dancing Comedian and Bicyclist Features. BY LEONE CASS BAER. Olga Nethersole's superb perform ance of the third act of "Sapho" heads a bill of genuine artistic worth and attention-claiming at the Orpheum. Miss Nethersole's triumph is all the more a triumph because she takes one act out of a colossal play and makes it stand for the entirety. Miss Nethersole's production is made by herself from the dramatization of Daudet's- "Sapho" by the late Clyde Fitch. At the opening of the scene depicted on the Orpheum bill Jean Caussin is chafing at the liason, which has be come irksome, between him and Fanny Le Grand, known in the art life of Paris as "Sapho." Jean's uncle, Ce saire, comes to visit the two and shows Jean a loophole of escape. He seizes on the chance and it is the breaking of the bonds between him and Fanny that makes the big third act. . Effect Intensely Dramntic. It. is intensely dramatic, relieved oc casionally by the lightsome bits of gayety affected by Uncle Cesaire and the bucolic banterings of Francine, Fanny's maid. The rest is somber and fraught with tremendous tragedy. Miss Nethersole's "Sapho" has never been equaled, although the actresses who have followed and preceded her in the role of this colorful character by Daudet have been a brave array. Only unqualified praise can be given Miss Nethersole's artistry. Her emo tional scenes have a living inspira tional force. She portrays Fanny's grief at Jean's desertion, in a radical departure from the traditionary method of merely weeping. Her depiction of grief is a deep, poignant, far-reaching expression and .with her audience it became an Impressive give-and-take. appeal-and-response affair. Miss Nethersole is admirably sup ported and the scene is lavishly mounted, showing the sitting-room of Jean and Fanny's cottage, out from Paria. Jean is given a highly-developed in terpretation by A. E. Winnington Barnes, Uncle Cesaire is a clearly indi vidualized conception in the art of Al fred Donahue, and Constance Raymond plays Fancine admirably. Rent of the BUI Is Good. The rest of tne Orpheum is a show by itself. Herman Tlmberg, a versatile come dian, all done up in a gray union suit and a silk hat, has acutely nimble toes and an tmderstanding of the violin.

TO THE KIDNEYS Take a Tablesponful of Salts if Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers. We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have sting ing pains 1n the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy' spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheuma tism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morn ing and in a few days your kidneys will act fine! This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu tralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus end ing urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is. inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occa sionally to keep tho kidneys clean a$d active.

Having been out the second day in an effort to reach a verdict, the Jury Read what two eminent scien tists have to say about light and its effect on beer in light glass bottles. "In recent years the observation has been made that the rays of sunlight effect a chemical change in beer. For this reason the use of beer bottles blown from colorless glass is diminishing, bottles blown from colored glass being chosen ; the amber colored bottles, which, when held towards the light, show the color of light beer, are particularly to be recommended."
