WHY CHILLY WEATHER
BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says Skin Pores Are Closed and Uric
Acid Remains in
Blood

Rheumatism is no respecter OF age,
sex, color or rank. If not the most dan,
eerous of human Affections, il is one OF
the most painful. Those subject TO rheu'
matism should eat less meat, dress ~
warmly as possible, avoid any undue OK
posture and, above all, drink lots OF pure
water.
Rheumatism is caused by uric acld,
which is generated in the bowels and an
sorbed into the blood. 1t is the function
of the kindeys to filter this aeid from
the blood and cast it out in the urine !;
the pores Of the skin are also means OF
freeing the blood of this impur1ty In
damp and chilly, cold weather, the SKIN
pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys
To do double work; they become weak
and sluggish and fail to eliminate TINS
uric acid, which keeps aeeumulatlng ana
circulating through the system, eventual
ly settling in the joints and muscles
causing stiffness, soreness and PAIN calied
rheumatism.
AT the first twinge Of rheumatism, get
from any pharmacy about four ounces OF
Jad Salts; put tablespoonful IN q glass
of water and drink before breakfast each
morning for week. This is said to
eliminate uric acid by stimulating the
kidneys to normal action, thus Kidding
the blood of these impurities,
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless, and
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithla, ana i
used with excellent results by thousands
of folks who are subject to rheumatism.
Here you have pleasant, efferveseent'
lithia- water drink, which eyercomes uric
acid and is beneficial TO your kidneys
as well.--Adyt.

Washington, Feb. l0--The United States

Were the United States strong enough
she could establish a precedent, forbid
the "misuse" of the flag and make it too
dangerous an act to be lightly followed
Under the conditions, however, all that

American flag by a foreign ship Tor the

dent Wilson takes the view that the de-

Iamation published in London yester-
day served as theme for much com
ment, il which the Lusitania flag incl
dent figures largely. Most of the Brit
ISL papers defend the use Of the Amer
lean flag in this emergency, but some
OF them express misgivings as to the
effect OF this course of action.

without much change from the condi-
tons of late last week. Butter is not
moving as well as it did last week, but
the demand is not 30 slow that sellers
are uneasy Cheese maintains a strong
tone, largely because of high prices

mand. II is estimated that about 300

steadier.
