EAT LESS MEAT
| !: BAGkH
FAKE a glass of Salts to flush Kidneys
if Bladder bothers you-Drink
lots of water. .

Eating meat regularly eventually pro.
,duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation:
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if 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, combined with ithia,
and shasTbeen used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the urine 80 it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder disorders.
- Jada 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, -

DRINK HOT TIA
FoR 4 BAD COLD.

Get small package Of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call il, Hamburger Brust Thee, at any
pharmacy. Take tablespoonful Of the
tea, put cup Of boiling water upon
it, pour through sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. It is the most
effective way to break q cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores of the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens the
bowels, thus driving cold from the
system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. It is Inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

The Old Home Town.

Do you remember the lazy fel-
low who used to sit around in the
implement store and the barber
shops in the old home town and
predict the failure of every boy
who tried to poke his nose above
the common herd? Up in the
village of Salem they used to
crack lots of jokes at the ex-
pense of a lank and ungainly
young fellow who clerked in the
village grocery, poled fiat boats
on the river and split rails for a
living. They called him Abe in
those days. He became the
President of the United States
and thousands from far places on
the earth have visited his birth
place near here to do him honor.
They used to make fun of Bill
McAdoo back in the home town.
Of course they've heard of Bill.
He dug a tunnel under the Hud-
son river and is secretary of the
treasury now. But there are a
lot of old tads back in the old
home town who sort of hope that
Bill will fall over something yet
and land in the consomme. And
Orville Wright was a regular
joke in his old home town. It is
the old home town itself that is
the joke.
