EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Kid
neys, If Bladder BOthers
You.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other. says a well known authority.
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overwork-
ed; get sluggish; clog up and cause
all sorts of distress, particularly
backache and misery in the kidney
region; rheumatic twinges, severe
headaches, acid stomach, constipation,
torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder
and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
news aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces o.
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter 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, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
news and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acide
in the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of mel
and women take now and then ~
keep the kidneys and urinary organs
clean, thus avoiding serious kidney
disease. Hooks Pharmacy. adNt

GEORGIA CHILD LABOR
LAW MUST Be CHANGED

Atlanta, Ca, Jan. ST am sorry
that Gorgia has the poorest child la
Dor law in the union" said A. ]. Nc
Kelway. secretary for the southern
states on the National Child Labor
committee, who came from Washington
to Atlanta yesterday afternoon.
Georgia not only has the poorest
law" he said, but also the feeblest
methods of enforcing it. This is no
new statement. Neither is the law a
new law. 1t was made in 1906. Since
then practically every other state has
made long strides forward.
THE present law has the u year
age limit, under which no child may
be employed in factory-eXcept or
phans or children of dependent par
ents, when the age limit is ten years,
for an eleven hour day.
mot another state has the ten-year
clause Two others, South Carolina
and Alabama, have the straight twelve
year minimum; one, North Calonia has
the straight thirteen year minimum.
All the rest have fourteen years as the
minimum.
THE Georgia law applies only to
factories. Our aim is to get straight
fourteen year limit, and make it apply
to all forms of employment-dep
ment stores particularly"
Mr.. McKelway is in Atlanta to cali
& meeting of the Georgia committee to
consider changes which the child la
Dor committee hopes to get in the

FIND
LOOPHOLE To

Atlanta, Jan. S.-Autoists are declar-
ing that no provision has been made
by the state for the enforcement of the
1913 law requiring all autoists to re-
state between January and March, pay
new license, and get new number
1t seems. if the Interpretation put on
the law is correct, that it prescribes
Just what shall be done, but authorizes
nobody to see that it is done 1t is de-
clared that the act leaves it entirely
with the benevolence and honesty 81
the auto owner to furnish the secretary
of state with the necessary informa-
ton and pay the new tax.
Under the old act, that of 1910. the
tax collectors were supplied with
blanks to be furnished all auto own
ers, and a record was kept But no.
body has such blanks this year.
Numbers of individual owners in
various parts of the state, it is said,
have expressed their intention of using
their old numbers as long as they can,
and not complying with the new tax
regulation until it is enforced
If there Interpretation is correct, it
may be necessary to change or amend
the present law at the coming session
of the legislature.
Local authorities in various parts of
the state have full authority to see
that each auto driver which drives
through the streets or roads has some
number, but nobody seems to have the
authority to distinguish between an
old number and new one.
