IF KIDNEY And
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and
Neutralize Irritating Acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit from uric acid, says noted au-
thority The kidneys filter ,his acid
from the blood and pass it on the blad-
der, where it often remains to irritata
and infame, causing a burning, scald-
ing sensation, or setting up an irrita-
ton at the neck of the bladder, oblig-
ing you to seek relief two or three
times during the night. The sufferer
is in constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in voiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control nrinatio1.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments t.
overcome. Get about four ounces If
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast, continue this for
two or three days. This will neutral
iZe the acids in the urine so il no long
er is source of irritation to the blad-
der and urinary organs when they 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 caus-
ed by uric acid irritation Jad Salts
is splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble. Hooks Phar-

the collection of an estimated value OF

1t is by far the most valuable gift

gusted young men have returned o
this city from the Catalina Islands,
where they had congregated from :
cry section of the United States TO

This mythical leader signed himself
Gen. Cliff Sands, and among the ten
treasure seekers was Walter Blosey, of
milwaukee, who left a good job in the
wisconsin city promising his friend
that he would become fabulousiy
wealthy. For two days the ten heroes
waited on the sands of Avalon, but 40
rugged pirates walked down the water
front to lead them; no close rugged
bark hove in sight to carry them to
TSruVlan T0aSuTeS.
In a current magazine this same
General Sands advertised for young
men to accompany him on treasure
hunting trip to Peru.
In reply to inquiries the general
wrote these young men to meet him
on the Avalon water front at high noon
nm a certain day in October.
1.-THE expedition" he said, will con-
sist of fifty trusted men. We shall
sail from New Orleans to Colon and
eventually down the South American
coast to Cuzco. Going inland from
there we will file on a number of
quartz claims. The men will receive
$1,000 each for their mining rights
With this money as a stake the men
will be sent out to search for in
creased treasures in which the noun
faiRs abound II you accept, write to
Cliff Sands, Seattle, and enclose $35
for expenses. Go to Los Angeles and
from there to the Avalon, where you
win receive orders, as we wish to get
