BIG EATERS HAVE BAD
KIDNEYS AND BACKACHE
Back Is Hurting or Kidneys and
Bladder Trouble You.

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trou-
BILE, because we eat too much and all
our food is rich. Our blood is filed
with uric acid which the kidneys
strive to filter out, they weaken from
overwork, become sluggish; the elimi.
native tissues clog and the result is
kidney trouble, bladder weakness and
a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps

is cloudy. full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night; If you suffer
with sick headache or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or you have rheu-
matism when the weather is bad, get
from your pharmacist about four
ounces OF Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your kid
neys 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

to neutralize the acids in the urine so
it no longer is sour ce of irritation.

THE NEWEST REMEDY FOR
BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM AND DROPSY

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently. and the poisons
are carried to all parts of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains. heaviness, drowsiness. irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-
nate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones.
When the uric acid affects the muscles
and joints 1t causes lumbago, rheuma-
tism, gout or sciatica. This is the time

Animals at Play.

THAT the lower animals do not
laugh, that they have no sense of
humor, is hard to understand when we
think how thoroughly they love to
play. From the highest to the hum
blest. they show the keenest joy in
sport, but they cannot Taught II they
could, perhaps the power would bring
with it other mental gifts. such as
to upset the whole order of things. Be
that as 1t may. the watcher of wild
life never gets used to the sight of
their mirthless sport. for in all other
respects their play Is entirely hu-
man.
"A great deal of human play is Sc
rious-desperately serious on the foot

cially when a lonely player at soil

cob pipe. Well. get two while you're

EDUCATION FOR DEVELOPMENT

Education may be divided into three
grand divisions: First, a school train
Ing in the so-called three RS. This
Is fundamental, and. without 1t. fur
ther education is impossible. Second
iy, broad or liberal education, such as
is given in our high schools. colleges.
and other institutions of learning.
which do not specifically prepare one
Tor his vocation. Thirdly, education
directly bearing upon ones selected
calling. like that given by the medical.
law, and technical schools.
In this article | shall confine myself
to the second class. that OF education
which stands between fundamental
and vocational training.
Authorities are divided. Some over
practical men claim that this cultural
education is not necessary, and that
the boy should jump Immediately from
the fundamentals into a training
which would directly assist him In the
work of his life; other educational ex-
perts strongly advocate liberal edu-
cation. like that given in our colleges,
asserting that 1t will broaden the
mind and fit 1t better to grasp the re-
quirements of the future. These lat
ter authorities do not object to the
technical training. but they would
have the young man ground himself
in general culture. IL ! may put 1t that
way, before he obtains a vocational
training. or during the time in which
he is obtaining 1t.
Nf gOtt I'M
out this idea. and adapting their cur
ricula to it, allowing the student to
study general subjects while he is TAX
ing up one or more directly in the line
of his future work.
1t has been seid that one cannot be
too broadly educated. This is true.
provided this education can be OBJ
tanned without too great sacrifice.
II a boy is going to enter a business
where he cannot directly use the class
les or other cultural subjects. and can
not obtain knowledge of them ex-
cept at enormous sacrifice. advise
him to forego college education: but.
II he is in a position to become lib
orally educated. irrespective of his
coming calling, ! suggest for him
university course. or any other form
of broad education, which will un-
doubtedly better fit his mind to absorb
the technique of his trade.
II, however. one is to enter a pro-
fession. this general broad education
will be found of direct value to him.
although he may not use all of it. His
mind then becomes his working tools.
and II should be trained along the
broadcast and most liberal lines, a
training which is not as necessary IL
one is to enter business.
1t is the man, more than the educa-
tion. The education at best can only
assist him in his development.
In summing up, would say: Get
all the education you can. cultural and
otherwise. provided you can do so
without injury to your health or to
your prospects. If you are SO situated
that you cannot well afford the time.
because 1t is necessary for you to be
self-supporting at an early age. |
would suggest that you forego much
of this education, which otherwise
would advise you to obtain.
When In doubt, get more education
than you think you need, rather than
less 1t is simply question of wheth-
er you can afford to pay the price.

DOLLARS AND SENSE.

Dollars count. Without them we
wear or a roof to shelter US.
Dollars by themselves. however. are
worth mighty little. even in the mart
of trade; for mere money, unaccom-
panied by a distributing agent. is as
valueless as would be a work of art
covered with burlap and stored In
cellar
Men of mark. taking them as they
run, and barring the few who are only
financially successful. have something
besides money. have done something
which money cannot do. They owe
their regulations in business, and out
of 1t, not wholly tc the fact that they
are financially rich or commercially
influential
Dollars without sense are as badly
off as would be sense without dollars
to provide for its wants.
The power of money. great as 1t is.
is not vested wholly in money itself.
Its value is dependent upon what ac-
companies 1t.
The miser. even though his store
house is filled with ready cash. has no
standing in the community and is not
on good terms even with himself He
has accumulated, but he has not dis
tributed. He has made money and
done nothing else
Good sense, common sense, is worth
more than money. even assuming that
money can be obtained without it.
The man of sense stands higher ev-
erywhere than does the nan of dol
lars.
Common sense is to be priced above
all financial riches. With 1t all things
are possible. ithout 1t nothing
worth while can be accomplished
Men today are reckoned by their
sense. not by their dollars. Their
positions in business. in the profess
sions. in the community. are depend
ent upon the amount of common sense
they possess. with or without accom-
panying money.
Don't imagine, young man. that the
mere accumulation of money is going
to give you any position of which you
may be proud. even among men of
money.
When men die they leave only one
heritage which is remembered. and
that is what they have done for the
benefit of humanity whether or not
this good has been accomplished by
willing money to schools, libraries
and charities, or is obtained because
they left behind them an example
worthy to be followed.
Remember that a draft drawn on
the Bank of Earth Is not payable at
the Bank of Heaven.
II you would have your money do
you and others any good. mix sense
with it.
II you would have your business of
benefit to you and to your community
or to those who labor under you. use
sense in conducting it.
Sense has value in every market
Dollars are not good everywhere.
Sense and gumption are marketable
commodities. Without them the rich
est money man is poor indeed
Money is worth having. Without it
we cannot eat or live: but lonesome
money is barren as desert plain
By itself alone it cannot SOW or har-
vest. 1t is drag which prevents the
rudder of the Ship of Life from max
ing a straight course.
A diet of dollars results in mental
starvation. Sense is the food which
nourishes both the mind and the body
