EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take q glass Of Salts to flush Kidneys
IL bladder bothers you-Drink
lots Of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney Trouble in Bome form
or other, says a welI-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat ex-
cites the kidneys, they become over
worked; get sluggish, clog up and
cause all sorts of distress, partic-
ularly backache and misery in kid
ney region; rheumatic twinges, Sc
we're headaches, acid stomach, consti-
patton, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
Kidneys aren't acting right, or if blad-
der bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take teaspooaful 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, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity; also to neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent hthia-
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.l

The Outlook for
Cotton Crop.

The present cotton crop, It is con-
ceded, is in good shape, with a nota-
bic absence of insect and drought
damage talk. The area Of 1914, and
the cost Of raising the crop, owing
to the 40 to so per cent reduction
in fertilizers used, will be the lowest
IN years. The yields of grain crops
in the south this year viii be the
largest in history, these including
wheat, oats, corn and rice. There
fore, the south will be more nearly
seh-supporting than ever before.
On the other side of the matter is
the fact that about 5000, 900 bales of
cotton were carried over from last
year, and that a new crop of prob
ably 100000 to $4,000, 900 bales is
to be financed or marketed. It is this
feeling Of uncertainty as to the pos
sibilites Of finding a market for
necessity cotton" that is, that por-
tion that must be sold early. that is
pressing upon the attention of pro-
ducers and dealers.
However, the south, unlike year
ago, has had full notice of the condi-
tons that have to be met; the feeling
is that the federal banking system
win alike permit and facilitate the
financing of the crop, and the evil
dences of preparations being made
to warehouse and hold it are numer-
GUS.
Then, too, while war has limited
the use of cotton for peaceful pur-
poses, it has vastly expanded its use
for explosives, the extent of this use
being estimated in some cases at al
most fabulous proportions. This ex-
plains the comparative steadiness of
prices of the staple, which, it should
not be forgotten, is selling at 41-4
cents, or 80 per cent below the price
ruling year ago.

CHASE PLEADS GUILTY.

Pleading guilty to a charge of
handling deadly weapon in reck-

white, was yesterday allowed to ex-
plain the trouble which he fell into
last Saturday afternoon when he is
alleged to have threatened to cut his
wife's throat. He made short state

sent him up for three months.

two automobiles for more than four
miles, and being finally taken by
Deputy Crawford, who accompanied
the sheriff, six miles from his home,
He eluded the city police automobile,
which had been pressed into SER

Eat Proper Food
and Keep Healthy.

Proper food, properly cooked and
properly eaten plays great part in
obtaining and keeping perfect health.
There is q great need for the peo-
pie of this nation for proper instruc-
tion in diet. Few people know the
right kind Of food to eat at the diff
ferent seasons Of the year and not
always does custom prove q good
guide.
Upon the diet Of nation lies its
Importance among the nations of the
world. So important has become the
question Of a proper diet that many
Of the large industrial plants hiring
men into the thousands have hired
expert dieterians to go thoroughly
into the matter for the benefit Of its
help.
One food expert so employed
evolved the following valuable advice
which the concern in question issued
as a bulletin to the wage earners on
its pay rolls:
Blood-making foods are a delusion.
All good foods when well digested
make good blood.
Constipating Foods-White bread,
rice, boiled milk, soup, etc.
Laxative Whole wheat
bread, fresh vegetables, fruits, corn
products, etc.
Avoid extremes of heat and cold
in food and drink.
Chew your food; your stomach has
no teeth.
There are five types Of food as
follows:
/. Proteins. Make and repair It's
sue. Consist of eggs, cheese, nuts,
beans, peas, flesh, fowl, lentils, etc,
Very important food elements. Con-
centrated foods. Most expensive type
of food. Apt to be constipating. No
storage places for them in the body.
Avoid excess.
2. Fats. Heat producers. Consist
Of cream, cheese, fat meat, butter
olives, nuts, olive oil, etc. Excess
fats delay stomach digestion.
8. Carbohydrates. Energy pro-
ducess. The most abundant of al
food felements. Consist Of starchy
foods should be thoroughly cooked
Excess stored in liver and muscles
Laxative tendency.
4. Sugars. Are energy producers
as found in fruits, but not cane, beet
or maple sugar. Require but little
or no DIGESTION. All fruits, raisins
dates, figs, etc.
5. Mineral salts. Nerve stimu
lants and bone builders. Small bu'
important part of human sustenance
Greens, lettuce, cereals, vegetables
fruits in general. Spinach and tona
toes rich in iron. Baked foods con
tain more salts than boiled foods.

Shipping Notes.

The American schooner Edith s.
Cummins, which cleared Monday for
Bahia Blanca, will probably go to sea
some time today.
Norwegian sailing vessels in port
were in holiday attire because of the
happy event which occurred yester-
day evening at the Scandinavian
church on South Palafox street.
Small catches are now being
brought in by fishing vessels, those
arriving yesterday having had barely
enough in their ice boxes to pay ex-
penses of the trips. There is no ex-
PLANTATION given as to the scarcity of
snappers, this being a season of the
year when they are supposed to be
easily available.

Wood to Run For Governor

The gubernatorial race will be en-
livened by the entry of another can
didate, Mr.. Wood of Pinellas. It will
be remembered that Mr.. Wood Gre
ated considerable notice during the
last session of the legislature. He was
the energetic member from Pinellas,
and from all accounts he represented
his county well. Mr.. Wood has con-
victions and he also has the courage
- those convictions. It is really re-
freshing to see a man in the legisla-
ture of that type; also it is interest
ing to see man with convictions
get sat upon. 1t always happens.
This does not prove that he is not
right; it may prove that he is right,
as matter of fact; but it invariably
happens that a man with firm and
aggressive ideas in regard to public
business is not allowed to get very
far with them. If he talks much
about them before the time for cleo
ton he is not elected; if he remains
discretly silent while in the campaign
and manages to get elected he is
given the quick kibosh if he springs
them on the legislature. Mr.. Wood
got through the legislature without
ENGRAVING any of his pet bills on the
statute books, so far as we know, and
now he is going to run for governor
because he believes so earnestly in
a number of things that he feels it
necessary to get before the people
with them. We welcome the approach
of Mr.. Wood. He is a banker and a
good business man, and is probably
able to make the race without going
