operated on for hernia and was
we'll and able for duty within

A Visit to Camp Demimg

j. r. Blair, j. A. Moore and
G. E. Parks while in Deming last
Saturday, made a visit to Camp
Deming. There is something
near 1900 men of the National
Guard stationed there. The
ground is low and muddy, but
the boys we're making bitches
and draining the site. The
people of Deming take a a great
pride in the camp and speak well
of the soldier boys. w. E. Holt,
the popular editor of the Deming
Graphic, escorted us over the
camp and introduced US to a
mum Der of officers and men.
The government has leased a
large tract of land, and evidently
expect to keep the soldiers in
Deming for a long time. One
tract of 100 acres leased costs
Uncle Sam 500 per month. The
camp is located a short distance
northwest of town, just outside
the city limits.

HEAVY MEAT EATERS
HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS
| Eat less meat IL you feel Backaehy
or have Bladder trouble.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which excites the kidneys, they
become overworked from the strain,
get sluggish and fail to filter the
waste and poisons from the blood, then
we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism,
headaches, liver trouble nervousness,
dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary
disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or il
the urine is cloudy, offensive full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by sensation Of scalding, stop
eating meat and get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful In glass of water
before breakfast, and in a few days
your kidneys will act fine. This ia
nous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for genera
tons to flush and stimulate the kid
neys, also to neutralize the acids in
urine so it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia-water drink which every
one should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active, and the
blood pure, thereby avoiding serious
kidney complications.-Adv.
