Thrift Is a Constructive Force of Society

than the toboggan it looks toward heights yet to be
attained. Contrary to the thought of the shallow, it
is not a breeder of Pride and Passion and Scandal, but
is the parent of Progress and Prosperity id Purity
and Peace. The whole household of Thrift is an hon-

Rheumatism is no respecter of agr, ’
sex, color or rank. If not the most ’
dangerous of human afflictions, it is j
one of the most painful. Those subject i
to rheumatismm should eat less meat,
dress as warmly a* possible, avoid,nn¥
undue cxpushure and, above all, drink
lots of pure water.
Rheumatism is ch used by uric acid ,
which is generated in the bowels and
bsorbed into the blood. It is the fune-
tion of the kidneys to filter this add ,
from the blood and cast it out in the
urine; the pores of the skin are also .
a means at freeing the blood of this
imuprity. In damp and chilly, cold
weather the skin pores nre elesed thus
forcing the kidneys to Co double work,
they become weak and sluggish and
fall to elim’nate this uric acid which
keeps accumulating and circulating
through the system, eventually settling
in the joints and muscles causing stiff-
ness, soreness and pain called rheuma-
tism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
I get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Halts, put a tablespoon-
ful in a glass of water and drink be-
for re breakast each mornlhg Tor 4
week. 1 bis is said to eliminate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to nor- !
mal action, thus ridding the blood 0f I
three im purties.
Jud Salts is inexpensive, harmless t
and is made from the add of grapc» I
and lemon juice, combined with lithid ;
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of flks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant,
effervescent lithia-water drink which
overcomes uric acid and is beneficial
to your kidneys as well.
At a special session of the executive
committee of the Chamber of Com-
merce called by President H. A. AV roe
this morning, the purchase of the Gal-
veston franchise in the Texas League
was considered and endorsed. D. T.
Iglehart, a former owner of an Aus-
tin ball club and probably the most
successful man who ever owned an
Austin club, spoke before the com-
mittee and strongly endorsed the
movement. Mr. Iglehart declared that
he would not be connected win tne
club other than as a business man o’
Austin. He declared that he was will-
ing to give it the support that he be-
lieved every business man should &1V6
the team, and stated that a basebal
team is the greatest advertisement a

Mr. Iglehart declared that it was h
opinion that it would not be good
policy to let one man bring the team
to Austin. l .
“It should be our club,” he stated,
stressng the "our.” It should be
backed by the various commercial or-
ganizations of the city.
He stated that he cleared a good
sized profit when he had the club, an I
said that conditions are much more
favorable to baseball in this city now
than in previous years when a fran-
chise was held by Ausin.
Theer ar© a number of men in Aus-
tin who are very much interested in
bringing the club to Austin this sum-
mer. and most of them are of the
opinion that it would be a success
financially, but a difficulty lies in the
fact that the men with money do not
seem inclined to launch out upon a
new proposition, which would consume
tme, Penergy and capital, hut which
probably would not be an improvement
. on their present investments, for most
investments are bringing returns at
present.
