MIND A BLANK FOR SIX YEARS Former Wealthy Oil Man Cannot Recall the Past Pa., Nov. 8.—Can a by the width of a | continent and the legal machinery of the law—be rcunited to his family through the achievements of medical science ? Six years ago James Rice, a pros- perous oil well contractor, was the father and husband of an affectionate family in Butler, Pa. Today he is in the Los Angeles Count Farm, his former life blotted from his mem- ory, while between him and his past | siretch the unending miles of eter- nity- While riding in an automobile near his eastern home one day the ma- chine was wrecked and Rice was severely injured about the head. Ap- parently, he soon recovered. Soon i ociates hegan to suspect some- thing was wrong. Rice no longer evinced any interest in his work, fam- ily cares had no interest for him, his mind seemed to wander like that of a small child. Then one day he dis- appesred and for many months his family searched for him in vain. At length, believing she had been desert- | ed, his wife obtained a divorce. Rice, meanwhile, was a wanderer | upon the face of the earth. Like the | “Wandering Jow,” he passed from one community to another, living | only in the pust, for his mind was | shrouded in darkness and he had slipped back into childhood. Many sympathetic persons interest- ed themselves in the simple, kindly | old man. They gave him food and | clothing and offered him s willing to do the tasks assigned, | Rice would manfully tackle any work | | [ Los Angeles, man—separated given him, then, as a small child tires work.

KEEP KIDNEYS ACTIVE WITH A GLASS OF SALTS Must flush your Kidneys occasionally if you eat meat regularly Noted authority tells what causes Backache and Bladder weakness. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from +,. the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, diz- iness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidne; or your back hurts, or if the urine cloudy, offensive, full of ( sediment, irregular of passage or at- tended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from ‘v 0y reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fam- ous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined ‘with lithia, and has been used for gen- erations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neu- tralize the acids in urine so it no long- er causes irritation, thus ending blad- ! der disorder: Jad Salts is inexpensive and can- not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby awoiding serious kidney complications.

From the first. he was a puzzle to the medical department, who, though they had experienced many forms of mental aberration, had never found one like this. While apparently mild- ly insane. he would relate at times details of his past in a lucid manner. | He repeatedly mentioned the name of Butler, in connection with his fam- ily. Medical men who observed him noted he had a curious manner of rubbing his hcad in a certain place, on which were the remains of a scar. They concluded he had been injured and that a bone fragment of the skull was pressing down upon the delicate brain tissue beneath. Repeats Name Bautler. The repeated mention of Butler, the authorities concluded, must mean the place in which he formerly had lived. There are many towns of that name in the United State 1d some time | clapsed before an @ was re ceived from Pennsyly , stating that | a James R former had lived there, and that he had disappeared To questions of his former life, Rice's answers were vague. Seem- ingly he recalled his past only in the dim, uncertain way that a man re- views the events of a strange dream, the details of which he cannot recall, though the overpowering sense of it remains. One of the puzzling phases of his strange, waking slee,p is that events which cover months and even years to take place within a few mo- ments, in so far as he is concerned. ‘While he can discuss details of his past, when they are recalled to him, his intelligence ceases there. Home ties, the love he bore his family, his responsibility to them and to soclety, all have ceased to have a meaning to him, for the human element is locked within the recesses of his clouded soul. Butler, Pa., is but a few days’ jour- from the Los Angeles County Farm, yet between James Rice and his past life there is a vast gulf. And vet if the operation which the scien tists are contemplating proves suc- cessful, Rice will emerge from his “Rip Van Winkle” sleep to take his place in life at the point where, years ago, his intelligence slipped down intc darkness. ney TIE-UP IN SUBWAY Explosion Precedes Fire and Reports Are Current of Another Bomb Out- rage—Double Fire Alarm Sounded. New York., No 8.—A fire in the Lenox avenue division of the subway a short distance below the 110th street station that started at 11:15 o’clock jast night. tied up all traffic on that branch, caused two fire alarms to be sonnded, and brought the police reserves from the East 104th and West 123d street stations. A loud explosion preceded the fire, which caused a report to spread that an- other attempt to wreck the under- ground railway by high explosives had been made. It was near the same point that the recent dynamite ex- plosion did such damage. This story of a dynamite attempt was denied, however, by Interborough officials and by the police, who laid | the cxplosion and subsequent fire to a short-circuit caused by defective in- sulation of a coil of light wires. The blaze thus caused burned the insu- lation and some paper said to have been in the tube. Into the dense smoke from blaze a northbound train ran finally the lights went out and the motorman was unable to proceed further. Other trains came up be- hind the stalled train, and several hundred passengers from them walk- ed through the cars and made their way to Central park, under which the the until gro, who lives in the west part of Monson, was found dead in a shanty near the Wilbraham line yesterday afternoon. It is believed that foul play caused the woman's death. The 'REMEDY FOR NEURASTHENIA Neurasthenia is a condition of exhans- tion of the nervous system. The causes are varied. Continuous work, mental or physical, without proper vacation periods, without proper attention to diet and exercise, also worry over the struggle for success, are the most com= mon causes. Excesses of almost any kind may produce it. Some ses, like the grip, will cause neurasthenia. 8o also will a severe shock, intense anxiety or grief. The symptoms are oversensitiveness, irritability, & disposition to worry over trifles, headache, possibly nausea. The treatment is one of nutrition of the nerve cells, requiring a non-alco- holic tonic. As the merves get their nourishment from the blood the treat- ment must be directed towards buiid- ing up the blood. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills act directly on the blood and have proved of the greatest benefit in many cases of neurasthenia. A tendency te anemia, or bloodlessness, shown by most neurasthenic patients, is also cor. rected by these tonic ?ills.
