BIG EATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE
TAKE SALTS AT FIRST SIGN OF
BLADDER IRRITATION OR

The American men and women
must guard constantly against kidney
trouble, because we eat too much
and all our food Is rich. Our blood
is filled with uric acid which the kid
neys strive to filter out, they weaken
from overwork, become sluggish; the
elIminatlve tissues clog and the result
is kidney trouble, bladder weakness
and a 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 relier two or three
times during the night; If you suffer
with sick headache or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or you have
rheumatism 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 a few days and your
kidieys will then act fine This IA
nous salts Is made from the acid OF
grapes and lemon Juice, combined
with llthia, and has been used fol
generations to flush and stimulate
clogged kidneys; to neutralize tbs
acids in the urine so it no longer Il
a source of irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, makes a delightful effervescen'
lithla-water beverage, and belongs II
every home, because nobody car

INCREASE IN SWING OFFERINGS

PORTLAND, Dec, 4.-only in the
swine division was there an increase
in offerings at North Portland for
the week; all other lines showing a
decrease. Nevertheless considerable
strength was shown all through the
week in the hog trade and values

In the cattle division there was a
flrmer tone shown at North Port

week, while demand was better.
There was little real good stuff and
top prices were not given a test at
any time during the period.
Regarding the feeder market the
stockyards reports as follows:
Feeder trading on country account
has been rather light all week. Best
feeding steers are selling at $3.50 TO

cases brought $500. Valley feeding
stuff was mostly on the ordinary and
common variety sold from S4.0O TO

MuteOn MMAet SuOaAB.
To say that the mutton market was
strong at North Portland during the
week is to put the matter very mild
ly. There was a decreased run in
this division Of the local market for
the week as compared with the pre-
vious week, although totals were
fractionally greater than for this
same week a year ago.
There was no toppy stuff available
in the market during the week. Sales
Of ordinary quality were made at the
same prices recently paid for toppers,
therefore 1t is easy to presume that
the better stuff would have brought
forth an advance.

MAY CURTAIL
HONOR SYSTEM
Decisive Action" Threatened
by N. Y. Prison Dept Unless
Escapes Cease

Albany, n. Y. Sept. 21.--The many
recent escapes from state prison
prompted Superintendent James NJ.
Carter, of the prison department, to-
day 10 notify all wardens that greater
restrictions must be placed upon the
inmates and that unless the escapes
CEASE he will take decisive action"
The warning carries the intimation
that unless conditions change, many of
the liberties enjoyed by prisoners since
the inauguration of the Mutual We'll
fare League and the honor system will
be materially curtailed.
Figures accompanying the warning
show that since Superintendent Carter
took Office last March thirty-fve con-
victs have escaped, twenty of whom
still are at large. Sixteen of the es-
capes have been from Auburn prison
and ten from Sing Sing.
While the superintendent approves
the aims of the honor system and the
purpose of the Mutual Welfare
League" Mr. Carters letter reads, "the
number of recent escapes proves con-
clusively that greater restrictions must
be placed on the inmates.
II need not say. however, that 1t is
understood that there will be no re-
turn to brutality or undue severity.
1t has been my desire to- see the
experiments tested before submitting
{, decision. but l have now come to a
definite conclusion that either the new
ideas are not workable or that lax
methods are employed in their de-
velopment."

situation many of the manufacturers
declared themselves in favor of farm
inspection by city authorities and the
grading of inspected farms. Part of
this plan, IL adopted. will be to re-
quire any person supplying milk to
make an application to the City Health
Department for permission to send the
supply here. Blanks will then be fur
nished for the farmer or dairyman to
NIL out. after which city food in
spectors will be sent to 60 over the

manufacture of ice cream was also
discussed favorably by the men present.
Big Improvement Seen
During the conference tests of ice
cream made during September were
shown TO the manufacturers. AL
though the majority of them showed
the presence of disease germs, there
was big improvement noticeable in
comparison with earlier tests.
Dr.. Raunick. at the request of a
number of manufacturers, promised to
give the public notification in the near
future that the ice cream supply was
safe. Several of the men present de-
clared their willingness to aid the
Health Department in a cleanup of
milk and cream. but stated that they
are positive the only method which
will bring results Is farm and dairy
inspection by city officials.
