Nervous Period

This trouble commonly called "sick head
ache, is said to be due to the retention OF
urea In the system. Often 1t is stated that
poor condition Of the blood is q cause Of
these headaches, or that 1t Is nervous
condition; and in certain cases, no doubt
this is true.
Where treatment is demanded, 1t is more
for the pain than anything else. and DR..
A. r. Schellschmidt Of Louisville, has
found anti-ksmnia tablets to give prompt
and satisfactory relief. Rest should be
insisted upon" he says, and the patient
should 60 to bed, darken the room. and all
the attendants and family should be as
quiet as possible. An emetic will some
times shorten the attack. The bowels should
be kept open with "Actoids"; a hot bath and
n thorough rundown with coarse towel.
often give grateful relief. Two anti-kamnia
tablets when the first signs appear, will
usually prevent the attack. During an at.
tack, one tablet every hour or two will
shorten the attack and relieve the usual
nausea and vomiting" These tablets may
be obtained at all druggists. Ask for AK
Tablets. They are also unexcelled for ner.

with a sad, almost stern, demeanor
For Just as the case had started he re-
ceived a telegram from New Port

w. Woodrough. aged "a, had died.
The Judge did not stop the testimony
that was going on. In fact, practic-
ally no one knew that he had received
the sudden blow, for he continued on
with the case as if nothing bad hap
pened.
Mr.. Woodrough later told reporters
that he would not attend the funeral
because he thought it best not to in
terrupt the proceedings Of the wild

families, the members OF the brother
hood,
The plan OF the brotherhood, &C,
cording to Mr. Cleveland, is co-opera-
tive buying. No cut is asked OF any
grocer, he simply agreeing TO furnish
goods to members OF the brotherhood
at living prices. Members OF the
brotherhood are supplied with cards
and the list of the membership is
turned over to the store selected.
When buying goods, they present
these cards and an account OF the ur-
chases is kept At the end of the
month the agent having collected the
bills representing the purchases OF
the month, calls at the store, presents
the bills and is paid the commission
agreed upon by himself and the mer-
chant.
The commission. after the overhead
charges, including the expenses OF the
agent, the publication OF weekly
price curren and perhaps, a book
keeper, are taken cut is dividend, to
be divided among brotherhood mem.
bers in proportion to the amounts OF
their bills.
The whole proposition is TO be on
cash basis. or rather on thirty-day
plan. which in mcrcha iiising is
looked upot as cash. Members who
run bills extending over the end OF
the month will not participate III the
dividends. which are expected to ma

Bodily Housekeeping

by Samuel Hamilton, NJ. d.
The subject OF drinking water with
meals has been misunderstood.
In recent years investigation by
means of X-rays, the observations by
scientists such as Cannon, Grutzner,
Pavlov, Fowler, Hawk, prove that an
abundance of water taken during d.
gestion is necessary in good bodily
housekeeping To drink pintrof hot
water before meals is good practice;
and those suffering from a catarrhal
condition of the stomach Will ma
benefit in adding about 10 grams,
Zone sixth OF level teaspoonful) OF
baking-soda, drinking it an hour be-
fore each meal Those who are IN
clincd to hyper-acidity should drink
slowly a pint of medium cold water,
two hours after meals.
If your kidneys are sick, or you
suffer with lumbago or rheumatism at
times. pain in the back or back OF
the neck, take little Anuric before
meals. This can be found at any good
drug store, and was first discovered
by DR.. Pierce of the Surgical lnstl-
tute, in Buffalo, n. Y.
When rundown, when life indoors
has brought about a stagnant con-
diton in the circulation-most every
one is filled with uric acid-especial-
ly is this so of people past middle age,
This uric acid in the blood often
causes rheumatism, lumbago, swell
ing of hands or feet, or a bag-like
condition under the eyes, Backache,
frequent urination or the pains and
stiffness OF the joints and high blood
pressure are also often noticed.
Everyone should drink plenty OF pure
water and exercise in the open air as
much as possible. | have found that
Anuric is an antidote Tor this uric acid
poison and that it will dissolve the
accumulation OF uric acid in the body
much as hot water dissolves sugar

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys If Back

III you must have your meat ey-
cry day. eat, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally. says noted
authority who tells us that meat
forms uric acid which almost para
lyzes the kidneys in their efforts to
expel it from the blood. They be-
come sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with dull misery in the kid
ney 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 cham
nels 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 off the body's urinous waste
get four ounces of Jad Salts from any
pharmacy here: take a tablespoon
full in glass of water before break
fast for 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 to neutralize the acids in urine,
so it no longer irritates, thus end
ing bladder weakness.
