FEARED FOREIGN POLICIES
MIGHT Be CRITICISED
Reason Why Mr.. Lansing Refused
to Act at N. Y. Democratic
Convention Revealed.

NEW YORK, February 22.-The rea :
son Secretary of State Lansing de-
clined the invitation of William Church
Osborn, chairman of the democratic
state committee of New York, to be-
come permanent chairman of the ap-
proa ching democratic state convention
was that to act in that capacity might
be "misconstrued and might subject
the foreign policies of the government
to the criticism of partisan bias"
Mr.. Osborn has made public Secre-
tary Lansing's letter declining the in
yitation, which in part read as fol-
lows:
"In the first place let me assure you
and the committee that | feel deeply
honored by their very complimentary
request, and, under ordinary condi-
tions, would be only too willing to
comply with their wishes. L have,
however. considered that it would be
unwise for me at the present time to
take an active part in politics.

preston of his "best wishes for an en-
thusiastic and harmonious gathering OF

Take a Glass Of Salts at Once II Your

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trou'

our food is rich. Our blood is filled
with uric acid which the kidneys
strive to filter out, they weaken from
overwork, become sluggish; the elimi-
native tissues clog and the result is
kidney trouble, bladder weakness and
general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps
of lead; your back hurts or the urine
is cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or threa
times during the night; if you suffer
with sick headache or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or you have rheu-
matism when the weather Is bad, get
from your pharmacist about four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your kid
neys will then 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 neutralize the acids in the urine so
it no longer is source of irritation,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in

every home, because nobody can make
mistake by having good kidney
