A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a

EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a glass of Salts to flush
Kidneys if bladder bothers
you.

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 back
ache and misery in the kidney region;
rheumatic twinges, severe headaches,
torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or il bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in glass Of
water before breakfast for 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 kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids
in the urine so 1t no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean,
thus avoiding serious kidney disease.

Be PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARK
Try GrandmOther's old FavOrite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get large
bottle of this famous old recipe, i'm
proved by the addition of other ingre-
dents, for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it SO naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and a
youthful appearance. 1t is not intended
for the cure, mitigation or prevention
of disease.

No Accounting For JurIss.

Many verdicts Of a strange, curious
and humorous nature find birth not in
frequently In coroner's juries and jur-
les in Justices courts
Uncommonly intelligent are the cor
oner's juries in Mississippi. Twelve
men in Warren county, in that state,
returned verdict several years ago
which read. "The deceased died by
the will of God or some other disease
unknown to the jury"
Another verdict. equally as solemn,
reads: I'VE are of A Pinion that the
Decest met with her death from Vio-
lent 1nfirmation of the Arm, producest
from Unoan Cauz."
An old story, oft repeated, is that
an English jury in a criminal case
once brought in the following. Guilty,
with some little doubt as to whether
he is the man."
Another is told of Welsh jury,
which reads. Eve find the man who
stole the mare not lty.'-Docket.
