A GLASS OF SALTS WILL
END KIDNEY-BACKACHE
Says Drugs Excite Kidneys and Rec
ommends Only Salts, Particularly
II Bladder Bothers You.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore. don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with mild, harmless salts which re-
moves the body's urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
hitter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital Importance of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts:
take tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast each morning
for few days and your kidneys will
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 clean and
stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralize the acids in urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
5ure; makes delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this, also keep up the water drinking,
and no doubt you will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and
backache.-Adv.

INTERFERENCE WITH
MAILS DENOUNCED
UNITED STATES DENIES THE
RIGHT OF ENGLAND TO RIFLE
THE MAILS.
8ritons to be Notified That Strong
Feeling is Being Aroused in This
Country as Result Of the Un-
warranted lnterferences.

Washington.-The text OF the Am
erican protest to Great Britain against
interference with neutral mails. made
public Thursday night. reveals that
diplomatic and consular pouches have
been treated in a manner the United
States considers "vexatiously inquisi-
torial.' The note describes the prac-
tees Of British officials az "unwar-
ranted interference" and urgently
requesting a prompt reply. points out
that strong feeling is being
aroused " in this country by the loss
OF valuable letters. while foreign
banks are refusing to cash American
drafts because they have no assurance
that drafts are secure in the mails.
The United States declares that
parcel post articles are entitled TO
the exemptions OF neutral trade and
denies the right OF Great Britain TO
take neutral ships into British juris-
diction for the purposes OF search and
then submit them &c LEGAL censorship
regulations.
1t also denies that the British gov.
eminent has any authority over neu.
trail sealed mails on ships which
merely touch at British ports.
With the text OF the American note
was made public Great Britain's ad
interim reply. saying that questions
Of principle raised by the United
States have made it necessary for
Great Britain to consult her allies be.
Tore answering finally and indicating
that there will be no unnecessary de.
lay in the negotiations.
The note is in the form Of a memor.
andum to Ambassador Page at Lon.
don, instructing him to file formal
and vigorous protest"

1t is considered probable that the

Warning of Impending Disaster Had
Been Giv.n Residents, But Few
Needing it, Preferring to Stay

San Diego.-Reports received Sun
day from fiood-ravaged valleys of San
Diego county showed that total OF
thirty-four bodies had been recove :
ed, and raised estimates of the o.al
death toll to sixty-five. Three thou
sand persons were homeless and the re
was much suffering despite heroic re-
lief work.
Reported breaking of the Cuyamaca
dam. releasing three billion gallons OF
water, eighty miles northeast of here.
and fear that other dams in territory
already partly flooded might go OUT
under the enormous pressure of their
mountain waters added further gloom
to the flood situation.
United States marines and sailors
continued to search for victims and
to check widespread looting. Many
bodies, it is believed, were carried out
to sea.
Many met death and the property
loss was appalling when on Friday
the lower dam of the San Diego
water system in the Otay valley.
south of here, broke under the heavy
pressure of the flood, waters. A wall
of water thirty feet high was re-
leased
Sweeping down the valley, the great
flood water carried people. livestock
and valuable farm property to de-
struction. Houses on twenty-five
ranches were swept away.
The heavy rains had filled the
lower Otay dam for the first time in
its history.
Unable longer to withstand the ter
rife weight Of the water. the dam
gave way, releasing a Hood of water.
Warnings of the impending danger
of the break had been given to the
people in the valley. but few needed
them, it was said, choosing to stay
and endeavor to protect their prop
erty.
The breaking of the dam released
eleven billion gallons OF water which
rushed down through the thickly-
populated and narrow Otay valley.
