We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid says
a well known authority, who warns us
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel like

aches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleep

bad weather, get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts: take q
tablespoonful in glass of water be-
fore breakfast each morning and in
few days your kidneys will 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 and stimulate
clogged kidneys, to lieutralze the acids
in urine so it is no longer source Of
irritation, thus ending urinary and
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot

The forest service issues permits to

been fixed in this case at from $3.50
to $500 per annum, depending upon
the size and outlook of the lots, Permit
tees are allowed the free use of timber
for fuel and free pasturage for limit

from the forest without cost. Two kinds
of permits may be obtained, one which
can be terminated in the discretion of
the district forester, with the right OF
appeal from his action to the secretary
of agriculture, or one for definite
term of years, usually not to exceed
fifteen. The latter form of permit usu-

see for themselves. Out of this grew
the suggestions for the return visits.
and the machinery, accordingly. was
set in motion.
The plan has been to select groups
of men representing as many important
industries as possible to visit each
country, keeping in mind also the bust
ness with which they themselves are
would be most apt to gather informa-
tion which would be useful not only to
themselves but to American trade in
terests generally. While the plan is
elastic. in a general way the scheme
has been worked out for a visit of a
special delegation to one country or
group of countries, with provision for a
shorter visit to some neighboring
Central America was taken as
whole. The delegation left New Or
leans late in January, following the
meeting of the federal trade council
there. An itinerary for it had been
carefully worked out in advance so
that there would be no loss of time.
The visiting delegations to the coun-
tries on the west coast Of South Amer
point. Some of the members may re-
turn up the west coast, but some also
will be likely to cross the Andes and
return by the Atlantic coast 1t is
possible that the Chilean delegation
will take this course.
The Bolivian delegation, or some
members of it. also may return by
way of the Atlantic. It is now
possible to get through Bolivia and
down to Buenos Aires by rail with
the exception of two gaps. of about
fifty miles each, which can be covered
in mountain coaches. or on mules.
This means that there is a railway
from the Pacific through the Bolivian
Andes to Buenos Aires, a distance of
something like $500 miles. with the
ferriage across Lake Titicaca. ferriage
consisting of comfortable steamers.
The return visit delegations to the
east coast are expected to have about
six weeks in each of the larger coun-
tries. The delegation to Brazil, if its
members feel inclined, may proceed to
Argentina, and have week or so
there, although this is very short
time. Conversely. the delegation to Ar
gentina may spend a week or more in
Brazil on its return to the United
