from that time on people kept coming.
The largest crowd was at the beach in

which had been purchased on Satur-

excellent view of the entire beach
from these seats.
And there was plenty to interest
them. There were the pretty girls
with bathing suits of the latest mode,
and colors. Some were there to swim
and others were like the young lady

There was even music at the beach,

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidne-' region 1t
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter 1t from the blood and they be-
come sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache. dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when tie weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges, The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels Of
ten get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief tive, or three
times during the night.
Either consul a GOOD, reli able ply
sician at once or get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter 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, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids in the urine so it no longer irri-
tates, thus ending bladder weakness
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, cannot

fFrom the British Weekly.1
Some few years ago. in the south of
England, three men who were travelling
were interested i'm the entrance of a
stranger just as the train was start

that he was military man, and after

AS the man is in the integrity OF his
character, so is his strength. Being
is everything. 1t conditions happi

upon what he is in himself. A mans
service to others is conditioned upon
what he is in himself Being is basal
to doing. AS the speed of the cleo
trio car is determined by the energy
stored in the power house, as the
power of the piston rod is determined
by the push of accumulated steam,
