KIDNEYS CLOG UP FROM
EATING TOO MUCH MEAT
Take Tablespoonful Of Salts II Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers- Meat
Forms Uric Acid.

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
q 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 tis-
sues clog and thus the waste is re-
tanned in the blood to poison the en-
tire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains in the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during the night; when you have
severe headaches, nervous and dizzy
spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather, get from
your pharmacist about four ounces Of
Jad Salts; take tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast each
morning and in few days your kid
neys 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 flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so 1t is no
longer a source Of irritation, thus end
ing urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes delightful efferves-
cent lithia-water drink, and nobody
can make a mistake by taking a little
occasionally to keep the kidneys clean
and active.-Adv.

FORTS TO GET HIGHWAY

SURVEY IS NOW BEING MADE

Fort Smith
Western Arkansas and Eastern Ok
lahoma are teeming with enthusiasm
over the good roads movement that
is spreading through this section CO.
incident with Arkansas efforts to get
on the National Jefferson Highway
Manitoba to New Orleans. A prelimi-
nary survey is now being made for
the Sebastian county highway, which
is to connect Fort Smith with Mans,
field, on the Scott county line, via
Greenwood So enthusiastic are the
residents OF Greenwood over the
proposition that they have purchased
the surveying crew an automobile and
will keep them supplied with all nee
essities at their own expense.
The Commercial Club Of Muldrow,
Okla, is behind a movement to issue
bonds to build a good road from Mul.
drow to Fort Smith, where it is to
connect with the Sebastian county
highway. Plans and specifications are
now being drawn for the improve
ment.
Marked progress is being made on
the Fort Smith to Paris TEX road.
This movement originated with the
boosters of Talihina, Okla. Sufficient
bonds have been voted in Talihina,
Summerfield, Poteau and Cameron
townships to insure the construction
of the road from Talihina to Jensen,
which is located on the Arkansas-Ok'
lahoma line in this county. At Jen-
sen the road connects with a branch
of the Sebastian County highway run
ming to Hackett City. Three town
ships south of Talihina have voted
bonds to start building the road to
ward Paris.
The survey for the Sewer County
highway, which is to form part OF
the Arkansas Jefferson highway. has
been completed by the State highway
department, and as soon as estimates
of cost are received steps will be
taken to organize an improvement
district under the Alexander road law.
The Sewer highway rhnning south
from DeQueen follows the main road
to Horatio, where it runs diagonally

GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR

Common garden sage brewed into
heavy tea with sulphur added, will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
few applications will prove a revela,
ton if your hair is fading, streaked
or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, Is
troublesome. An easier way Is to get
a 50-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use. This is the old time
recipe improved by the addition Of
other ingredients.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. By darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because it does 1t 80
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking

your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant.

MEXICAN TROOPS WITHDRAWN
FROM FIELD OF OPERATION,
1T is CHARGED.
THOUGHT BANDIT TRAPPED
Extraordinary Rapidly With Which
American Cavalry Pushed Into Mex
leo Gave Rise to High Hopes
That Villa Was Cornered.

Ell Paso, Tex.-In spite of reports
that Carranza forces had engaged vii
las men at NamiQuipa there is a feel
ing here that the Carranza forces
have failed to held their end of the
net closing about the bandit chief.
Confirmation was received that IN
certain instances Mexican troops were
withdrawn from the field of opera
tions.
The extraordinary rapidity with
which the American cavalry pushed
into Mexico gave rise to high hopes
that Villa was cornered. This seemed
inevitable If the Carranza soldiers did
their part and if the account of the
strength of their field forces was cor
rect. Villa, cut off from the north by
the forward sweep CT the American
columns, from the west by the Sierra
Madre, barring the approaches to the
state of Sonora, was supposed to be
equally barred from east and south
by powerful Carranza forces.
1t now seems certain that Villa has
been moving freely in at least large
section of the country supposed to be
held by Carranza's troops In the last
few days he has been variously re-
ported by General Gavira, the Car
rama commander at Juarez, at
points along a line reaching north and
south from Galeana to Namiquipa, a
distance of about rs miles. By the
same accounts he has not been mov-
ing steadily south, but rowing north
and east.
The character of the mountainous,
canyon-split, roadless section in which
he is operating, adds many miles to
the country he has covered, as COM
pared to the distances on the map.
The reason for the Carranza troops
moving to the border remains unex,
planned. 1t is impossible to make a
fair estimate of the number of men
at Juarez Conservative estimates
place it at 5000 and calculations range
up to 5000 Most of the men are kept
outside the town among the hills. Re-
ports from Aqua Prieta and Ojinaga
tell of Mexican reinforcements reach
ing those points.
There is serious and growing un-
easiness in Ell Paso, which has been
made acute by the problem which has
arisen over the request Of the United
States to General Carranza for the
use of Mexican railroads to transport
supplies. Americans here do not be-
lieve that Carranza dare grant this re-
quest, especially as it is believed that
General Funston proposes, if it Is
granted to take train crews and
equipment into Mexico and to place
military guards at the stations. The
presence of American soldiers on Mex.
lean railroads would be misunderstood
by the poems and it is feared, would
be sure to provoke outbreaks.

Fort Smith is going to reap rich
harvest from its great natural gas re-
source, and which has already done
much for this city.
Arrangements are completed TO give
Fort Smith a S12,0OO,00O smelter plant
corporation, which will give this city
a monthly payroll Of s25,OOO, and en-
ploy from 300 to 500 men.
The plant will be located in South
Fort Smith. where it will have the
benefit of ample railway facilities and
an electric street railway line for the
accommodation OF the employees and
those having business with the In.
dustry.
The smelter plant will require some
forty acres for buildings and storage
grounds, and the plant will be one of
the largest and most modern ever
erected.
The proposed smelter plant will use
some 100000 feet of natural gas
daily, and the Clear Creek Gas and
Oil company were quick to give their
progressive policy to the securing OF
the enterprise, assuring the promoters
that the wells of that company were
good for 100000 feet a day.
The securing of this immense en-
terprise is the forerunner Of other
large industries that are seeking loca-
tions in Fort Smith.
Work is to begin at once, and it is
hoped that the plant will be in opera
tion before July l.
In connection with the securing Of
the smelters, the natural gas develop
ment will he actively pushed from
now on, and there is no doubt about
the promoters being able to secure all
the gas that every industrial enter
prise will require.
