Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked; !;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts Of distress. particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir-
ritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or If bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water 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 flush clogged I'D.
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;

women take now ard then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.-AdV.

Now Sleep SOundly Since They Have
Found a Sure Preventive
For Group.

Many mothers, besides those of
Ozark, Mo-, have been afraid to sleep
at night for fear of being awakened
by that dread croupy cough. Mrs. H.
H. Givan and Mrs. ]. ]. Cave, both of
Ozark, have found, in common with
many other Missouri mothers, that a
jar of Vap-O-Rub in the house in
sures a good nights sleep.
Vap-O-Rub is the external treatment
for all forms of Group or cold troubles,
introduced here from the South last
winter. 1t is in salve form and you
just rub it over the throat and chest,
covering with a warm flannel cloth.
The body warmth releases antiseptic
vapors that are inhaled with each
breath, loosening the phlegm, and, in
addition, Vlck's is absorbed through
and stimulates the skin, relieving the
tightness and soreness. Group is usu-
ally relieved in fifteen minutes, and a

1t is allus with a quiet inner con-
seriousness that unless we win luck t
our side our efforts, no matter how
strenuous, will be in vain. So we have
come t regard good luck as somethin'

Sudden Death
Caused bV Disease az the kidney,

@eSe ~ SAsS94G " AAS hAuACY8
The close connection between the
heart and the kidneys is we'll known
nowadays. When kidneys are diseased,
arterial tension is increased and the
heart functions are attacked. When
the kidneys no longer pour forth waste,
uremic poisoning occurs and the per-
son dies, and the cause is often given
as heart disease, or disease of brain
or lungs.
It is a good insurance against such
a risk to send 10 cents for a large
trial package Of "Anuric"-the latest
discovery Of DR.. Pierce. When you
suffer from backache, frequent or
scanty urine, rheumatic pains here or
there, or that constant tired, worn-out
feeling, get "Anuric" at the druggist.
It's 81 times more potent than lithia,
dissolves uric acid as hot water does
sugar.

Poison in SeIf-Defense.

While we very naturally dislike q
plant that poisons US when we touch
1t, yet If we investigate the reason for
its poison we discover that vast num-
Der of plants develop poisons and near
poisOns, and when we look over the
list we find that we would be rather
badly off without them, the National
Geographic Magazine states. 1t is true
that most of thew are poisonous only
when eaten, and that few are poison,
Gus to the touch, but they have all Le-
veloped these qualities in self-defense,
Some of them store their poison in
their seeds, others in their root stocks
and others in their roots to protect
their progeny from harm. They do not
go about looking for trouble or seek
ing, like the devil, whom they may de-
stroy; but they are prepared to resist
invasion of the rights of their children.
Nux vomica and aconite are two of
this kind.
Others develop aIkaloids, like the
nicotine of tobacco, the quinine of the
cinchona tree and the theme of tea, to
protect themselves. Strychnine, digi-
tails and hundred and one indispen-
sable drugs that are poisonous in over
doses are the gifts of the plant world
to man as a byproduet of plant prepa-
rations for self-defense.

Imprisoned With Michael Davitt
Called Him by Number.

The death of James Collins, the mod
ern historian of Dublin, reminds one
that Mr.. Collins was engaged in COM
pleting a work of his friend, the late
Michael Davitt, Irish nationalist and
labor leader, once mill lad in Hasling-
den. One of Davitt's stories intended
for inclusion is the following:
The Irish Tribune" as Davitt was
called, having served many years in
Chatham and other prisons as a po-
litical prisoner, had been a free man
some six months, when he was ad-
dressing huge meeting in the Ro-
tunda, Dublin.
Davitt had worked his audience up
to tense pitch of enthusiasm and con-
cluded great speech amid a perfect
storm of applause.
When he had resumed his seat and
the applause was subsiding a voice
from the gallery cried out:
"Bravo, x Twenty-nine!"
Davitt started and, looking up, be-
held the grinning face of a well-known
"cracksman" whom he had left finish
ing a five years term in Chatham
prison, and who had hailed Davitt by
his prison number.
1t did not take an Irish audience
long to scent out the humor of the situ-
alton and the Rotunda rang with peals
of laughter, in which both 'her ma
jesty's ex-guests" heartily joined.
