Wives and Money

The natural makers Of money are men--they dig and

The natural OF money women--they cook

husbands best adviser and sometimes she Joins him in

Many families manage the same way in America or

The Sunday School lesson Of Feb

tells how great sorrow and suffering
were brought upon the children OF
Israel by the defeat Of their army
by the Philistines, and how this de-
feat was brought about by the sins
OF the two unworthy sons OF Eli
who occupied very responsible po-
sitions but who failed 10 live up 10
their responsibilities.
These two young men were as
sistants 10 their aged father who
was the high priest II was their
duty 10 assist in taking care OF
the ark. in making sacrifices, and
in performing other sacred rites
in the temple. They failed TO make
good in their positions. When the
people brought flesh TO offer in

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys il Back
Hurts or Bladder BOthers.

If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says noted au-
thority who tells US that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to expel it
from the blood. They become sluggish
and weaken, then you suffer with a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
is coated and when the weather is
bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush of
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any pharma-
cy here; take 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 lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also &
neutralize the acids in urine, so it nc
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure and makes delightful efferves-
cent lithia-water drink. Hooks Phar-
