URIC ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take Glass of Salts If Your Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers.

If you must have your meat every
day. eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says a noted author
ity who tells us that meat forms uric
acid which almost paralyzes the kid
neys in their efforts to expel it from
the blood. They become sluggish and
weaken, then you suffer with a dull
misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
is coated and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment,
the channels often get sore and irri-
tated, obliging you to seek relief two
or three times during the night.
To neutralize these Irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the bOdy's urinOus waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here: take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys 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 sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates. thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and make delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink.-adv.

Quoted by DR.. J. c. Perry, was one
of the important achievements of the
public health committee. The report,

studies made of local conditions any
where in the country. The health COM
mittee is now negotiating with the
state health board relative to carry

Several important industrial prOpo-
sitions have been considered by the
Commercial club. Industrial condi.
tons of Richmond are better now than
they have been since the closing of
the M. Rumely company.
1t was through the cooperation of
the educational committee that the
vocational survey is now being con-
Quoted.
The insurance committee in 1916
succeeded in securing definite
promise from the : Sellers Rating
bureau that the city would be placed
in the highest class of any city in
the state in insurance rates.

Several referendums sent out by the
United States Chamber OF Commerce
have been considered by the local
committee designated as the u. s.
Chamber of Commerce committee.
The committee recommended to the
board of directors that the Richmond
Commercial club continue its member
ship with the national organization.
1t was through the efforts of the
electric railways committee that the
hack station was iriaugurated in Rich
mond. This committee during the
past week has been instrumental in
the negotiations With Fred A. Dolph,
Chicago traction promoter. relative to
the proposed traction extension from
the north.
The public improvements committee
reported that efforts have been made
during the year to interest the city
officials in the ornamental lighting
system for the city.

then discovered that there was a
movement on foot fer the purpose of
celebrating the one hundredth ami
versary of the admission Of Indiana to
statehood in the union, and it was de-
termined to wait until 1t could be def
nitely determined what plans the
state had in view.
The state commission proceeded to
organize by counties. and a Wayne
county committee was appointed, of
which B. F. Wissler was made county
chairman and in view of the fact that
the two celebrations should be held
jointly. Therefore joint meeting of
/ the Wayne County Centennial COM
mittee and the Richmond City COM
mittee was held, however, with only a
small attendance. At this meeting
the joint committee proceeded to or
ganize by the election of B. F. Wissler
of Cambridge City, as county chair
man; L. S. Bowman as secretary and
D. S. Coe as treasurer. From this
time on for the period of six weeks the
committee attempted to hold weekly
meetings until plans could be formu-
lated and the work mapped out. A
constitution and bylaws. were formu-
lated and then adopted ana the real
work for which the committee had
been created was then undertaken.
In the months of October and No
yember 1915, numerous committees
were created and weekly meetings
were attempted to be held. The work
of the committee was very greatly
handicapped by non-attendance of
members. Generally from three to six
members responded to the notices
sent out while the tital membership of
the committee enrolled some thirty
four members. The only way that
business could be transacted was by
one article in the constitution pro-
viding that the members present
should constitute quorum.
County Without Rights.
The finance committee attempted
to get a guarantee from Wayne county
for portion of the funds that might
be needed but on investigation it was
questionable whether the county had
any legal right to make an expen-
diture for such purposes. When the
city of Richmond was asked for a
