Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasion ally, else we have backache, and dull migery, jn she kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders, ' % You simply must keep your kid- neys active and clean, and the mo- ment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will them act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithia, and is , harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent lithia- water drink which everybody should take now and then to keep their kid- neys clean, thus avoiding serious complications. A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only tfouble. . Hallowe'en : Spe PEARS CHOICE SNOW APP. cials BARGE ALOHA FOUNDERED CAPT. MYVICAR DROWN (Continued from Page 1.) the top of the cabin, and ag it rode the waves all right, there he re- mained. Capt. McViear was evident- ly stunned by coming in contact with some of 'the wreckage or suffered cramps, as he was seen to double up. The steamer Chamberlain came as near to the struggling men as pos- gitle, Lines were 'thrown to the Capt. M¢Vicar, Ellis and Vale, Hum 'had drifted too far away on his ca- bin top to be assisted, and Mills still held to the mast. = Ellis and W had no "difficulty in getting life line thrown to them, and were soon pull- ed up on the steamer, but they were almost exhausted from their exper- fence. Two lines 'were throwm to Capt, McVicar, but he was not able to get either of them, and was lost. Hunt drifted towards shore, and when the steamer Chamberlain pull- od away he was only a short distance from land, and so no fears were en- tertained for his safety, The man left in the cross trees caused them much worry. When a short distance off Simcoe Island, Hunt was picked wup by a gasoline launch. He came over to Kingston on Sunday night, Several of the men, who figured in the wreck, also experienced the terrible storm which swept the upper lakes in No- vember, 1913, and in speaking of this storm, stated that it was just like the one on the upper lakes. One and all were agreed that it was the worst they had ever experienced. \ The mariners agree that during this fall they have experienced the worst gales on record since the fal of 1913. For the past six or seven weeks, the wind has been playing 'havoc across Lake Ontario, easing up for a day or so, and then coming back strong again. { Owing to the fact this is the third wreck to occur in this vicinity ths fall the dstriet has been mamed by many of the mariners as 'the graveyard of Lake Ontario." Just recently the schoomer Marsh foun- dered off Pidgeon Island while the barge Hiawatha was lost near the Galloup Islands. Both wrecks re- sulted in quite a heavy toll of life. The Crew Interviewed. John Vale, one of the first two men who 'were rescued, "hiked" for home as soon as he reached port, but a Whig reporter, who was on the job as soon as word was received in the city, met C. H. Ellis, the cook, who was rescued at the same time as Vale, on board the steamer Chamberlain. 'Ellis, although employed as +a cook, and he is 'A No. 1 in this line of business, so all the men of his flock, say, and they should know, is also a good sailor. If a storm breaks he is always on the job. He weighs 212 pounds, and when the 'Whig chatted with. him he appeared to be none the worse for his thrilling ex. perience, although he admitted he had a close call "They had some pull to get me with that line," he said with a smile, "for you remember that I am no small weight. When I saw that the boat was sure to go down I thought it was all over with us, but deter- mined to put up a fight for if, and I did. I have been out in niany gales, and have:been in several shipwrecks, but I want to tell you that I was nev. er out in such a storm as this. The men on the Chamberlain certainly deserve all the: credit possible for saving Vale and myself. The water was like ice, and 1 don't think we could have lived in it very long. It was terrible, When the barge went under I knew the only chance we had was to hang on to some of the wreckage until picked up, and this I was determined to do." As soon as he reached the eit Mr. Ellis went to the telephone o fice and notified his wife and moth- er ih Belleville of the awful affair. Ellis has one child, ®or some time he had been employed around Belle. ville, and just recently went sailing, although years ago he had been en. gaged on the lakes. It was his in- tention to go to Belleville to spend the week.end, and he jocularly re. marked that he had all hs baking done, and a supply of good things for the boys to eat while 'he was away. Now, as a result of the wreck, he found himself out of a berth, and he did not know exactly what he would do.

EDWARD EARLE HAS GAINED 14 POUNDS ts Complete Relief From Suffering of Five Years Standing. "When I teil you I have gotten complete relief from tive years of suffering and have actually gained | fourteen pounds in weight besides, | you can readily see why I think so highly of Tanlac," said Edward Earle of 17 MeGregor avenue, Tor- onto. Mr, Earle is a well-known union carpenter employed in the Cananadian Pacific shops and has lived in Torofite for the past eight years. "My stomach was all upset," he continued, 'and So out of order that I coutdn't digest anything. I had no desire for food of any kind, and what ljttle I did eat would lay in my stomach like lead. I would bloat up terribly with gas and had sharp pains in my sides and all around my feart. My tongue was always coat- ed. I had a bad taste in my mouth and would have dizzy spells when it seemed lke a film of skin would form on my eyes and my vision would fail me. My sleep was poor, I was out of sorts all the time, felt tired and sluggish and had no energy. I really dreaded to eat any- thing because I knew how I would suffer aftérwards. "This is just the condition had been in for five years, and while I tried all kinds of medicines I kept getting gradually worse until I read bout Tanlac and began taking it, It's the only medicine I have found én all these years that I could con- scientiously recommend to my friends. My stomach trouble has disappeared entirely with al] the gas, pain and other bad feelings and I'm feeling well and strong in évery way. My appetite is fine and I know I am getting nourishment from my food or I could never have gained so much in weight. 1 sleep good every night how, and my weak dizzy feelings and Ge! | } | bad taste are gone, and all this good |' has come from two bottles of Tanlac for I have just started on my third. Tanlac is my medicine from now on, and I believe anybody suffering like I did will do well to try it." Tanlac is sold in Kingston by A, P. Chown. --ADVT, AA cA AAA AAA AAA clothing and other belongings. Just before the vessel went down he hap- pened to go into his room and he picked up his watch just by chance. The other members of the crew lost all their belongings. The Late Capt, McVicar. The late Capt. McVicar was one of the best known mariners on the lakes. He was seventy-six vears of age, was born in Ireland, and had lived in Deseronto for many years. Although -he had passed his three score yearh and ten, he was very active, and could walk the decks like a man thirty years his junior. He was belovedrby all his acquaint. ances, and the news of his death has been received with widespread regret, - He was well liked by ali the men under him on the barge, all of whom paid a warm tribute to his worth to the Whig. "He could get over that railing as fast as any of us," said one member of the ill-fated vessel, "and we are all sorry to see Rim go." Deceased is survived by his wife and two daughters, Mrs. John Hart, of Deseronto, and Mrs. A. Spence, of 95 Bay streef, Kingston. Upon examination, it was found that Capt. McVicar had suffered sev- eral wounds on his head, These were no doubt, received as he 'thrown against the wreckage. It is t pos- sible that stunned in this way, and thus icapped in his gallant efforts to save himself, Had he been lain were at work, he could very easily have been pulled out of the water. Stramge to say, this was Capt. Mec- Vicar's first trip on the Aloha. For great shaking up in the storm. At times water was washed over her stern. The vessel 'is being unloaded 'to-day. the wreck, in the form of a slight wound om his right leg. He got this in an encounter with some of the wreckdge. Frederick Hunt's Experience. Frederick Hunt was interviewed by the Whig on Sunday evening and gave a clear, concise account of his experiences. For the miost part Mr. Hunt corroborated the statements of the other members of the crew and considering he had been through such an awful experience his thoughts were well collected and he seemed to take his position as a mat- ter of course. After the boat had gone down he seized a piece of the planking and for two hours drifted in the icy water, helpless and alone, In recounting his experiences he said, "It was between half past five and six that the boat went down and from thet tinge until eight o'clock I was utterly helpless. The waves were dashing me all over berlain. Later the little motor boa came out and picked me up, It was an awful gale for them to come out in and I am mighty thankful to those lads who picked me out of . When seen by the Whig seemed to be feeling very fit but complained that he was a lMttle tired. Otherwise it was wonderful to see of the day. Mr. Hunt is registered as a mative of Wiarton, Ont., but gince last sum- mer- has been residing in ly He said that it was in the middle of the summer of 1916 that he had stop- ped sailing, This was his first trip on the barge Aloha and the first time the had been working on a boat since 1916. Asked if he had ever bean ship- wrecked before he answered that this was his third experience and that he guessed he had a charmed life. ---- fiAfe Saving Station Needed. Dr. D. E. Mundell, who was called in as coroner to view the remains of the late Capt, McVicar, was an interested listener to Mr. Hunt's story. In conversation with-the Whig afterwards he urged that the matter of establishing a life-saving station at the head of Simcoe Island should be brought to the attention of the Dominion Government. 'In view of the number of wrecke that have occurred in that locality," said the coroner, "I believe that the press should urge the Government and agitate if necessary that a lite saving station be established at point, Such stations have been placed in other districts where there has not been such a necessity for them as there. This summer we have seen the folly of leaving mariners who go mear that point in a storm without the protection they certainly should have, and you may be sure that it will mot be the last time that there thing is quickly done by the Govern- ment." Capt. Peacock Laid Off The report received in the city, early on Sunday morning, was to the effect that Capt. James Peacock of Port Hope had lost his life in the wreck. This was due to the fact that Capt, Peacock had been sailing the barge Aloha. Owing to ilinesf he » the report| hed to stay off the last trip and Capt.
