GLASS OF SALTS IF
YOUR KIDNEY HURT
Eat Less Meat If You Feel Back
achy or Have Bladder Trouble
Salts Fine for Kidneys.

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
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel a dull mis-
cry in the kidney region, sharp pains
in the back or sick, headache, dtzzi-
ness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine Is cloudy, full Of sediment; the
channels often get irritated obliging
you to get up two or three times dur
Ing the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad 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 famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lith-
ia and has been used for gen.
erations to clean and stimulate slug
gish kidneys and stop bladder irri-
tation. Jad Salts is inexpensive;
harmless and makes a delightful eff
fervescent lithia water drink which
millions of men and women take now
and then, thus avoiding serious kid
ney and bladder diseases.

TWO MILLION PERSONS
IN U. S. UNEMPLOYED
States Vail, President Of American
Telephone and Telegraph Co.

New York, March 15.-There are
two million persons unemployed in
the United Statse whose yearly earn
lngs should total at least $3.50, 00O,-
600, says Theodore N Vail, president
Of the American Telephone and Tele-
graph Co., in the annual report of
the company issued today.
These unemployed are now living at
the expense of their savings their
friends Or the public, he says; and
What is needed to bring about their
Unemployment and the return Of
prosperity is a restoration of condi-
lions which would inspire confidence
in the securities of public service and
manufacturing enterprises to enable
them to obtain capital for extension
and Improvement
Billion Dollars a Year.
A billion dollars a year is needed,
Mr.. Vail asserts, to put these enter
prises in a position to meet the de-
mands Of the country both as grow
ing" and "going" concerns and if they
could begin the expenditure of even
a part Of that sum, sit would soon re-
store the normal conditions of en-
Payment, expenditure, consumption,
and production
Question or Public Control
Most vital to the restoration of these
conditions Mr.. Vail declares, is the
question of public control and regu-
lation of public service enterprises,
which, he points out, are, when pros
porous, Large employers Of labor ana
large purchasers and consumers of all
varieties of products and manufac-
tures.'
Mr.. Vail pleads for regulation that
twill be thorough and effective and at
the same time equitable, just and
practicable.'
May Become Destructive.
"Control and regulation can become
destructive instead of constructive
he continues. 'Tney can delay and
paralyzc commerce. They can,
through DEGREES of inexperienced Of
fcials, impose unnecessary burdens
and unnecessary expenditure upon
corporations. They can require too
many regulations and theories of OPP
Grafton and too many undeveloped ex-
periments in plant and equipment.
Demands of labor for increased wages
and shorter hours and demands of
the public for increased service must
be met by increased revenue pro-
duced by increased rates.
"A corporation, no more than an
individual, cannot be bound hand and
foot and yet be active or give good
service. Bankrupt public service, in
time, means bankrupt communities"
Cites Telephone Business.
Mr.. Vail cites the falling off in the
telephone business-"the last to feel
depression and the first to recover
as indicative of the business reaction
since the European war.
