DRINK MORE WATER
If KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat and take Salts
for BaCkaChe or Bladder
trouble.

Uric acid in meat excites the kid
news. they become oVerworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps of
lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the
bladder is irritated, and you may be
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night When the
kidneys clog you must help them
flush off the body's urinous waste or
you'll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the
kidney region, you suffer from back
ache, sick headache, dizziness, stom-
ach gets sour, tongue coated and you
feel rheumatic twinges when the
weather is bad.
Eat less meat. drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist 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, com bined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine, so it TO
longer is a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active. Druggists
here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kid
ney trouble while it is only trouble

~ Steamers
BloUn Up by
Teuton Mines

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. g.
Twelve big merchant steamships run
ming into a German nihe field at the
mouth OF the River Thames, were
blown up in a single day. probably
with serious loss OF life, three weeks
ago, according to information brought
here Monday night by the master of
the northumberland line steam
ship Tomsk, arriving after a months
voyage from Swedish ports, via New
castle. England. The commander OF
the Tomsk, Capt Wiberg, said he Sc
cured his information from channel
pilots.
Capt. Wiberg also declared that the
Great Central railway station in Lem
on St, one of the big London ter
minals, was levelled to the ground
in one of the Zeppelin raids. which he
witnessed from the deck of the
Tomsk. He confirmed earlier reports
of the capture of German submarines
on a large scale.
AS to the destruction of the II
vessels. no word had reached this
country until Monday. So far as Capt.
Wiberg could ascertain, the disaster
occurred either Oct. u or IS Ger
man war vessels, the night before, he
said, had scattered floating mines
Throughout the length of the Edin-
burgh north channel. one of the ship
lanes leading to the Thames, and then
had returned undiscovered TO their
base.
Under the prevailing admiralty di-
rections, commercial shipping is car
ried on only during the day time, as
result of which a rush of traffic takes
place at sunrise. This in the opinion
Of seamen, contributed to the whole
sale sinking Of ships.
According to Capt. Wiberg the de-
stroyed steamships were of different
nationalities, all south bound for the
English channel in charge of British
pilots, and following the Edinburgh
north channel, it was the admiralty
instructions. While other channels
leading to the Thames had been mined
by the English, this waterway had
been kept open.
