STOP EATING MEAT IF

Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other. says a wen-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys. they become overworked:
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress. particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach. constipation. torpid liver.
sleeplessness. bladder and urinary ir-
ritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or II bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a 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
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine SO 1t no longer irritates. thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-Adv.

the squire heartily. "All right. The
bet goes on that basis"
Haines fancied he was a great reader
of human nature. At heart he was the
most humane soul ever lived. He had
a theory of persuasive kindness as to
the treatment Of the weak. misguided
and criminal. He had. in fact, done
great philanthropic good in his time.
Animals loved him, and he was really
q wonderful horse trainer. He had
started some unfortunates on a new
and better path. Now, with his sister
staying for a week at the little Okla.

hayward Yuma, Iztu. and had resolved
to reform" him.
He managed to send word to Iztu,
down at the Yuma reservation. that he
wished to buy some of the pretty shell.
work of the native women.
1t was two days later when a long.
haired, bronze-faced man came to his
door. At once Haines decided it was
Iztu, and so he was accepted by the
town in general. This Yuma, how.
ever, did not at once make for the set.
