but that the attendance will increase

Chamber Of Commerce Dinner.

The arrangements for the dinner
in connection with the annual meet
ing of the Chamber of Commerce,
to be held May 9Th, are nearly COM
plete. The announcement of the
program, which promises to be in
terest, will probably be made next
week.
The meeting itself is important.
A new set of officers are to be cleo
ted, and the report is expected to
show some matters of considerable
interest. Although work has been
done quietly this year, it is believed
that twill be of interest to the mem
bership and citizens at large.
There is some question as to whe-
Their the recent formation of the
Merchants Association will be an
advantage or disadvantage to the
Chamber of Commerce. But GER
tainly the two Associations in main
working for the same object ought
to work in harmony, and each ought
to endeavor to promote the success
of the other, and nc doubt this will
be the result.

ARE YOUR KIDNEYS
 OVERWORKED? !? How They Fight
 Uric Acid

If you eat meat, then you have uric acid in your blood. And uric acid is the chief cause of weak kidneys. The kid neys do their utmost to free the blood of irritating uric acid, but it is a losing fight for them. They become weak from the oveTwork. They get sluggish; the elininative tissues clog and thus the work of Altering the blood is performed very poorly and the waste is retained to poison the entire system.
 When your kidneys t1rob with a dull ache, when they feel like Jumps of lead, when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, eleeplessness, tired feel ing, constipation and bladder disorders, you can make up your mind that these troubles come from weak sluggish kid neys.
 You can help the weakened kidneys and put them in good working order again by asking your druggist for about five ounces of Rheurnasalts- Take two tea spoonfuls in a 1-2 glass of water be- fore breakfast for a. few mornings and the results will surprise you.
 Rheumasalts acts quickly without: grip Ing or nausea. It Is delicious to take. 1t is uric acid solvent as well as a saline taxative-delightfully effcrvescent
 These famous salts are very inexpen- stve. Every one can proftably take a little Rheumasalts occasionally to keep the kidneys clean, working and efficient.
