IF KIDNEYS ACT
 BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is a sign you have been eating too much meat, which
 forms uric acid

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat. says well-known au- thority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they be- come sort of paralyzed and logsy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels removing all the body's urinous waste. else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated. and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine IS cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore water scaldS and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times dur ing the night.
 Either consult good, reliable physi- elan at once or get from your pharma- = cist about four ounces of lad Salts: take a tablespoonful in 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 genera tions to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot fniure and makes a delightful, effer- vescent lithia water drink.

take over these young children, but at the option of the management, who have adhered to the four years" age limit.
 First Selectfnan Albert W. Iilfi- bridge said that his experience had convinced him that the change should be made in the present law, as at the present time there was no place to care for these young children except in the alnshouse and they could not receive proper care in an institution of that nature. Effort was also made to board these children with families, but there was difficulty in placing them with people who would give them that attention that is required in their proper care. He cited instances where children of the same family were scat tered and he considered that these children should be received in the county home. It had been set forth that the county home for New Lon don county was now occupied to ca pacity and he. suggested as a rem- edy the enlargement of the home, if necessary. He said that at the pres ent time he had five children in his custody that ought to be in the coun- ty home and he would like to have
 proper provision made for the care of these little children who were not responsible for their condition. MT. Lillibrtdge told of a man whose wages averaged $1 day who had five chill
 dren to care for. the mother having deserted her husband and children, and who took the savings of the industri- ous husband with her. It is impossible for this man to attend to his work even at small wages and to also take care of the children. Three of these children could go to the county home, but the two that needed the most at tention could not. M
