BIG EATERS HAVE BAD
KIDNEYS AND BACKACHE
Take Glass of Salts at Once If Your
Back Is 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 filled
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 Jumps
Of lead; your back hurts or 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 glass of water before
breakfast for 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
it no longer is source of irritation,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot In
jure, makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake nv having a good kidney
flushing any time.-Adv.

Golf Old Mans Game.

The phrase Golf is an old mans
game" so often tauntingly used by
the uninitiated, is being turned to good
account in the British Isles. Since
the war began bitter criticism has
been leveled at golfers who continued
to use the links.
Golf is an old mans game" say
friends of the sport, "and only the golf
ers too old to enlist are playing 1t
now. All the younger ones. including
the amateur champion. are at the

Hinkey at Yale.

Whether Hinkey will return to Yale
next fall depends apparently upon
Hinkey himself. The general feeling
at New Haven is that the silent coach
has established basis for future Yale
success and that he is the man upon
whom the blue must depend for ath-
ie.tc redemption. The crushing de-
feat by Harvard may be the queer
means to reach a given end.
