obliged to seek relief two or three

you feel a dull misery in the kidney
region, you suffer from backache, sick

Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This ia
nous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine,
SO it no longer is a source of irrita-

"Anuric' is a recent discovery of
Doctor Pierce, who is head of the In

Japanese Clock Competition.

Consul Albert w. Pontius, Foochow,
China, reports the receipt of several
inquiries of late concerning the intro
duction of American clocks Of a GER
tain kind. One enterprising Chinese
firm had photographs made of five
different clocks for which ready
market is found throughout this local
ity. 1t is likely that all five clocks
find a good sale in China generally.
Four of the five clocks shown in the
photograph are of Japanese manufac-
ture, every one of the clocks being
distinct style of the old American
made clock sold in the far East many
years ago. The enterprising Japanese
manufacturer has flooded the market
throughout China with his wares, still
there is no reason why the American
manufacturer should not get good
share of the clock trade, providing he
can compete with the cheaper clock
of other manufacture.
