Railroad capital in these days goes
chiefly into second, third and fourth
tracks, better equipment, larger de-

TAKE SALTS To
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat if You Feel Back
achy or Have Bladder
Trouble.

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their eff
forts to filter it from the system. Reg
ular eaters of meat must flush the kid
neys occasionally. You must relieve
them like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the acids, waste and poison
else you feel dull misery in the kid
ney region, sharp pains in the back or
sick headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours tongue is coated and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twnges. The urine is cloudy, full OF
sediment; the channels often get irri-
tated, obliging you to get up two or
three times during the night.
To neutrallze these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about 4 ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then act
fine and bladder disorders disappear
This famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for gem
erations to clean and stimulate sluggish
kidneys and stop bladder irritation. Jad
Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoid
ing serious kidney and bladder dis
eases.-Advt.

the measure would work out to in
calculable benefit to the banking and
other financial interests of the United

the country in respect TO the new

fess myself as sharing in this spirit

better.
