ACHING KIDNEYS

Kidneys, then Back hurts and
Bladder bothers you.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged
and need flushing occasionally, else we
have backache and dull misery in the
kidney region, severe headaches, rheu-
matte twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach,
sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder dis
orders. '-
You simply must keep your kidncCs
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys will then 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 50 it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders. r. +
Jad. Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should take
now and then to keep their kidneys 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 trouble.

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to it's natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and abundant Whenever
her hair fell out or took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
pie mixture was applied with wonderful
effect
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50 cent bottle Of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy," you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair and is splendid for dandru.., dry,
feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well known downtown druggist says
it darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one strand at
Z time. By morning the gray hair Dis
appears, and after another application or
two, it becomes besztifslly dark, glossy.

TO USE SURPLUS POTASH.

Chemists Report That Crops Are In No
Immediate Danger.
Because of the action of the Ger
man government in prohibiting the ex-
portatiOn Of concentrated potash salts
reports have been made indicating that
farmers were becoming alarmed over
the consequences of a possible reStric-
ton in the supply of commercial fer
t1lizers. Manufacturing chemists say,
however, that there is no danger of a
failure of q reasonable crop prOduc-
ton on this account.
One of these chemists has given his
views as follows:
Potash is one Of the three elements
most essential to plant growth. Prac-
dcally all soils suitable for farming
contain potash in available and also in
unavailable form. As plant life takes
potash only to the extent Of it's needs,
if there is any excess in the soil it
will remain until used, as potash does
not leach out Of the ground. Fortu-
nately many farmers have been using
potash in Increased amounts each
year, so that the soil is better sup
piled with available potash than was
the case few years ago, and there
probably remains in the soil supply
which has not been assimilated-
The problem Of the individual farm
er is to conserve his potash, which
can be done in the following way:
Green manuring or turning under a
cover crop. dressing heavily with barn
yard manure, balancing chicken ma
nure with nitrate of soda and acid
phosphate. saving wood ashes to mix
with nitrate of soda and acid phos
phate and rendering inert soil potash
available.
Nitrate of soda will do more than
any other agent to render soil potash
available. The potash that can be
made available in the soil is usually
in the form Of hydrated silicate Of
potash and alumina. The nitrogen in
nitrate Of soda, having been assimilat
ed by the plants. leaves residue Of
soda which acts on the hydrated sill
cate of potash and alumina and rem
ders the potash available.
AS the amount of potash which can
be made available in any soil is quite
limited. the process of freeing 1t is
only temporary measure to meet an
emergency. and it must eventually be
replaced. Every 100 pounds Of nitrate
of soda will split off fifty to fifty-tive
pounds of actual potash and assure
successful crops for a time where no
additional potash is used.

A WORD WITH WOMEN

Valuable Advice for Bemldp Readers
Many a woman endures with noble
patience the daily misery of back
ache, pains about the hips blue, ner-
vous spells, dizziness and urinary dis
orders, hopeless of relief because she
doesn't know what is the matter.
It is not true that every pain in
the back or hips is trouble peculiar
to the SEX" Often when the kidneys
get congested and inflamed, such
aches and pains follow.
You can tell it is kidney trouble If
the secretions are dark colored, con-
tain sediment; the passages are too
frequent or scanty. Then help the
weakened kidneys. Don't expect
them to get well alone.
Doan's Kidney Pills have won the
praise of thousands of women. They
are endorsed at home-Read this Be-
midi woman's convincing statement:
Mrs. M. Sullivan, 1915 Bemidji
Bemidji, Mimi, says: 81 cannot give
Doan's Kidney Pills more praise
than their merit deserves. I have
taken them off and on as needed
during the past several years and
they have always proven a good kid
ney and backache remedy. It is a
pleasure for me to make the merit
of this remedy known.

BLADDER TROUBLE CAUSES
TERRIBLE PAINS

After taking trial bottle Of DR..

forwarded to me, I purchased some
from local drug store and after
using three dollar bottles I can
truthfully say that I was cured of all
the terrible pains I had in my back,
side and head, caused by bladder
trouble. I had the worst kind of
kidney trouble and suffered so that
I could not even stay in bed with
the pain Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Ro

When 4,500,000 Red Cross seals

When 4,500,000 Red Cross seals
had been placed in Minnesota, DR..
H. W. Hill, executive secretary of
the Minnesota Public Health asso-
citation, asked the national commit
tee for another 100000. He re-
ceived but 100000 and Investigation
showed that never in the history of
the movement have so many seals
been disposed Of. More than three
times as many seals have been sold
in Minnesota this year, if all are dis
posed of by January /, than were
sold last year. The total in 1913
was 100000. The number obtain
ed in this state this winter is s.
100000.

FOR BETTER POTATOES.

It is not generally known that
best potatoes come from seed
obtained from far distant
point. w. A. Orton. a United
States department Of agriculture
pathologist, says that large
part of the territory Of southern,
south central and western states
obtains better results from seed
; potatoes grown near the north
ern border Of Maine. New York,
Minnesota and other northern
. states.
Replanting diseased seed po-
tatoes in the same localities
merely brings poor stock. Fresh
potatoes from distant points. mi
nus blemishes. will cure the evil
} The fact that newly irrigated or
recently deforested portions Of
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michi-
gan are being planted to pota-
, toes makes the information more
valuable. Seeding these new
patches with sick or blemiShed
potatoes spells failure for new
) growers.
The essential thing here as
) elsewhere is healthy seed pota-
toes, preferably obtained from
distant points. Thus if a garden
has been blighted with bad seed
potatoes, it may eventually be
purified by better stock, culhva-
) ton and fertilization.
