Take a glass of Salts to flush oat your

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from urio ncid, Bays a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and 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
scnaation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it
because they can't control urination
While it is extremely annoying and some
times very painful, this is really one of
the most simple ailments to overcome.
Get about four ounces of Jad Suits
from your pharmacist and take a tablo
Bpoonful in a glass of water before
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 or
gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splen
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, eflervescent
lithia-water drink, which quickly relieves

Porots That Control th Curve Thsy

Which the bullet describes in travel

mark at a given range. - This curve Is
tho componeut of two forces-first, the
momentum Imparled to the bullet in
tho rllle barrel and, second, the down
ward pull of gravitation. Many per
sons have the erroneous idea that so
long as a body is. traveling ahead very

Tbe fallacy of this notion can be
very prettily sllovii by a laboratory
experiment in which two rubber balls

precisely the sauio instant, but in such
a wuy that bull A has double tbe ve
locity of bull B. Although ball A will
travel. twice us far as ball B before
it strikes tho floor, it will always be
observed that tho two bulls strike the
floor at the same instant
High velocity, then, docs not free a
rifle bullet from the effect of gravity,
but it does enable it to travel a greater
distance ahead before It has had time
to fall any given distance. That is tho
true reason why higli velocity tends to
give a low trajectory. FX comparison

APAfiHES OF PARIS.
Strife Over an Underworld Buauty Led

The apaches of Paris ro an order of
tho lowest nnd most dangerous crimi
nals in the world. There Is not a great
central organization like the Italian
orders and no fixed rules or assemblies.
It consists merely of groups of crooks
operating lu different quarters of the
city. These little groups or circles take
their names' from the quarter of the
city that they inhabit and have their
own conventional signs, places of meet
ing, leaders and the like. The mem
bers are usually young, beginning as
boys of ten or fifteen years.
The women associated with these
criimlnal bunds arVcalled mormites In
the vernacular of the underworld.
There was a struggle in Paris between
tho apache bauds of Mnmla and Lecca,
involving, like the Hind, the abduction
of a Helen. She was a famous beauty
In the subterranean cafes of Paris and
called. In the argot of Montmartre, I.a
Casque d'Or. Tbe very name has the
ring of romance. She was betrothed
to the lender of the Mnndn and was
carried off by tho rival band of Lecca.
War followed between tho bands a
bitter, vindictive, bloody feud.

Feet of the Chameleon.
In their tongue, their foet and their
eyes chameleons differ remarkably
from other lizards. Their feet, though
possessing five toes, are divided Into
two grasping groups, looking like a

amination you perceive the presence
of the two or the three opposing re
spectively, but so close together as to
appear like one broad one. On the pad
ded soles or palms of these grasping
limbs you can feel and see the small

to grasp so firmly that It is difficult to
detach a chameleon from its foothold.
These clinging feet together with their
prehensile tail, enable them to sustain
themselves on the branches in the

PROHIBITION
LAW SMASHED
BROWN WILL ENFORCE LAW TO
THE LAST.
Mur.y Think That if Decision Is Up
ht Id law Is Valueless.
General discussion is rampant as
a consequence of a decision in a
Poitland Circuit court this week,
knocking the props out from under
liberal sections of the prohibition law,,
Attorney General Brown yestolrday
announced officials of the state would
continue to enforce tbe law until tho
Supreme court hud ruled, but there is
much speculation rife, not withstand
ing this. A Portland paper outlines
the decision as follows:
Circuit Judge Morrow has rendered
a decision, overruling the demurrer to
the complaint in the suit of Wadhams
& Co. against the San Francisco &
Portland Steamship Co., which, in the
opinion of the district attorney, prac
tically puts Oregon's prohibition law
out of business if the decision should
be sustained by the higher courts.
Judge Morrow holds that the pro
vision of the prohibition law -limiting
to wholesale druggists the right to
import alcohol in large quantities is
in violation of the interstate , com
merce clause of the federal constitu
tion. He holds that any genuine man
ufacturer may import as much nlco
bol as he desires for his 6wn use.
Possession of Alcohol Not Unlawful.
."The Webb-Kenyon act, which was
relied upon by the state in this suit,"
said Judge Morrow, "is so phrased
that it reads .to prohibit the importa
tion of liquor or alcohol for use in
violation of law. It applies in states
which have absolute prohibition, but
the Oregon law provides a manufac
turer can have alcohol but he cannot
import it. As the possession of alco
hol by a genuine manufacturer is not
unlawful, it is in violation of the in
terstate commerce clause of the fed
eral constitution to attempt to pro
hibit him from importing such alcohol
directly himself."
Judge Morrow declared his decision
follows the decision of the United
States Supreme court in the case of
the Adams Express company against
the state of Kentucky.
He pointed out that .while the re
sult of his decision might he the
springing up of many pseudo manu
facturing plants, it would be up to
the district attorney and other law
enforcing officers, in enforcing the
law. to keep a watchful eye out for
blindpiggers masquerading as manu
facturing plants.
l Scheme of Oregon Law.
Deputy District Arthur Murphy,
who argued in suppct of the de
murrer upon invitation of the defend
ant, said that, as the scheme of the
Oregon law is to suppress and regu
late the liquor traffic through its man
ner of receipt into the state, that
Judge Moi-row's decision will nullify
two-thirds of the law. He pointed out
th.it it is not unlawful for an individ
ual to possess liquor in any quantity,
but the law prohibits him from re
ceiving more than two quarts of
whiskey in a period of four weeks.
Law May Be Nullified.
"If the courts will hold that it is
unconstitutional to prohibit a manu
facturer from importing alcohol but
allow him to use alcohol," said Mr.
Murphy, "then the provision which
prohibits a man from buying more
than two quarts of whiskey but al
lows him to possess whiskey must be
unconstitutional, too. So there will
be nothing left of tho law."
He said the- purpose of the Webb
Kcr.yon act, passed by congress to as
sist states in enforcing prohibitory
laws, was to divest liquor of its inter
state character when it was to bo re
ceived, as well as possessed, used or
disposed of in violation of law. He
said the Oregon legislature had in
mind, when it passed tho prohibition
law, that the Webb-Kenyon act di
vested intoxicating liquors of their in
terstate character, thereby making
them subject to state laws, prior to
their receipt.
"In other words," said Mr. Mur
phy, 'fthe legislature proceeded on
the theory that the Webb-Kenyon act
makes the manner of receipt of
liquors subject to state regulation,
ana the Oregon law was built on that
foundation. It provides for the mak
ing of certain affidavits when liquor is
received, it limits the amount that
may be received, etc. 'A large part of
the act is taken up with prescribing
the manner in which intoxicating
liquors may be received, and it seems
to me that Judge Morrow's decision
knocks out tho whole business."
Law Upheld in Federal Court.
A somewhat similar case was re
cently before Judge Bean of the fed
eral court, and ho upheld the consti
tutionality of the Oregon law.
The present action was brought by
Wadhams & Co., wholesalo grocers
and manufacturers of flavoring ex
tracts, against the steamship com
pany to gain possession of two bar
rels of alcohol which were shipped
from San Francisco. It is a fuit be
tween private pnrtics and th i state
was represented by the district at
torney's office only upon invitation.
The state cannot appeal. If the ques
tion is to be carried to the supreme
covrt it must be done at the instance
of the defendant, but as the district
attorney was invited to appear it is
considered probable that the trans
portation company will permit the
question to be appealed.
