BIG EATERS HAVE BAD
KIDNEYS AND BACKAcHE
Take a Glass Of Salts at Once II Your
Back 10 Hurting or Kidneys and
Bladder Trouble You.

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trou-
BILE, because we eat too much and all
our food is rich. Our blood is filed
with uric. acid which the kidneys
strive to filter out, they weaken from
overwork, become sluggish; the elimi-
native tissues clog and the result is
kidney trouble, bladder weakness and
a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like humps
of lead: your back hurts OF the urine
is cloudy, full Of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night; if you suffer
with sick headache or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or you have rheu-
matism when the weather is bad, get
from your pharmacist about four
ounces Of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your kid
neys 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 and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine SO
1t no longer is a source of irritation,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, makes a delightful ef~ervescent
Whitewater beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake by having a good kidney
flushing any time.-Adv.

LARGE SOUTH AFRICA SNAKES
In Swaziland, According to Traveller
the Reptiles Grow to a Really
Amazing Size.

The largest snakes in the world, 30
far as | know, r to be found IN
South Africa, though / am told that
there are species Of python In Sout
America that equals in size the rock
snake in the low country of Swazl-
land, writes Temple Manning. Near
johannesburg two or three years ago
a hunter had just come in with four
snakes which he had capturoU alive
and he and his kaflr servants were
engaged in measuring them. The
longest measured a few inches less
than 20 feet and was "a inches in
circumference, and the smallest was
II feet in length and IL inches IN
circumference.
In order to get photographs we tied
the heads of the snakes to pegs set
in the ground and then, stretching the
tails back as far as we were able, had
the kair hold them-a job that they
were loath to undertake, as they have
no liking for the reptiles, though they
hunt them fearlessly.
The snakes are not poisonous, and
do not bite. OF course, with their ire
mendous powers of construction they
could squeeze a man to death In a
minute or two, but they eve attack
a man and only fight in self-defense.
The hunter got II gallons Of oil from
his catch, worth about fifteen pounds
nearly seventy-dve dollars in our
money.

SEPARATE Skirts.

Among separate skirts are seen
plated models, fastened down with
tape or elastic, but full around the
ankles. Plated tunic skirts show clus-
ters of plaits with panels between,
etc. In many cases fullness is pro-
duced by the introduction of small
plaits on the underskirt, which are
pressed down and only show when the
wearer is in motion. Sometimes two
fabrics are employed, the tunic being
of serge or gabardine and the under
skirt of satin or messaline. Some
times the ~underskirt is of a plain
material, or vice versa. Checks or
plaids with plain fabric are also used.
Simple tailored skirts with yokes
are made up in various fabrics. The
fiounced skirt is among the dressy
styles, and a skirt with a deep cir
cular founce starting at the knees is
a new idea. The latest of all is the
circular skirt, which is sometimes
trimmed with velvet or satin ribbon,
giving the effect of a TERED skirt.

DRESS TRIMMINGS ALL LIKE
Season Seems to Be One FOR Which
"Freshening Over" Is De-
clared Allowable.

Dressmakers predict that this sea-
son will be a 'make-over" season,
which means that new trimmings will
be brought into extensive use as a
means of freshening up. Trimmings
of fur bands will be much used, espe-
cially of beaver, monkey, ermine,
skunk, fitch, etc. Ermine is used on
fine laces, together with spangles, jet,
metal lace, etc. Fol instance, monkey
hair is used on a green chiffon tunic
over a green satin skirt. Light wool
afternoon frocks for young persons
are trimmed with brown fur bands on
the wrists. edge of the tunic and v
neck.
Tinsel bands, lace, spangles and silk
and beaded tassels are worn. Jet,
~opalescent and silvered spangles are
used to ornament lace bands and
hounces, and also to decorate nets.
These nets are also ornamented with
metal flowers and scrolls, and EN-
hroidered with beaded embroidery

We are threatened with an epidemic

known as covert cloth. 1t resembles
khaki, and that In itself is enough for
the populace, neutral though we may
be, for 1t smacks of a uniform. 1t is
being introduced in a wholesale way

to rival blue serge as an everyday

Those who object to it as unbecom-
Ing and who realize that the new neck
line is as high as the chin, will have
to devise something in another color
to reach from the base of the neck up.
That is not difficult, for black satin
goes admirably with covert cloth, and
if there is a high stock collar of this
material fastened straight up the front,
