Fortune Teller Puts Captain Mahan

 Boston, Now 10.-"Eddie' Mahan, captain of the Harvard football team, is now a firm believer in the powers of fortune tellers. It became known after the game at Princeton that Mahan had been visited by a for tune teller Friday night, when the Crimson team stayed at the Wander bilt hotel in New York.
 Mahan was sitting in the foyer of the hotel when a neatly dressed woman approached him and asked if he were MT. Mahan. After an- swering affirmatively he was inform ed that she could tell him the out come of the game with Princeton:
 "The final score will be 10 to s in favor of'-she hesitated for 2 nom oment-"Harvard,'' she continued. You will get your 10 points in the first quarter and Princeton will score two field goals later in the game. It is just barely possible,' she pro- phesied, that you will make II points instead of 10, but I think not. Your team will come within a foot Of making a second touchdown, but the Princeton team will hold you. After that will come your second and last score"

MEAT CAUSE OF
 LAME BACK AND KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a Glass of Salts to flush Kid neys if your back
 is aching.
Noted authority says Uric Acid from meat irritates the
 Bladder.

Meat forms uric acid which excites and overworks the kidneys in their efforts to filter it from the system. Regular eaters of meat must flush the kidneys occasionally. You must re- lieve them like you relieve your bow els; removing all the acids, waste and poison, else you feel a dull misery in the kidney region, skarp 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 is cloudy, full of sediment; the chan nels often get irritated, obliging you to get up two or three times during the night.
 To neutralize these irritating acids and flush off the body's urlnous waste get about four ounces of lad Salts from any pharmacy; take a table spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine and blad- der disorders disappear. This fa- nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys and stop bladder ir- rltatlon. lad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and makes a delightful eff fervescent lithia- water drink which millions of men and women take now ana then, thus avoiding serious kid ney and bladder diseases.
