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

IF you must have meat every day,
eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says a noted au-
thority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to eXpcl it
from the blood. They become slug
gish and weaken, then you suffer
with q dull misery in the kidney re-
gion, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours, tongue is coated and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twniges. The urine gets cloudy, full
of sediment, the channels often get
sore and irritated, 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 ats 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 le-
mon 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 initiates, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad ats is ineXpensive; cannot in
lure, and makes a delightful etter-
vescent lithia-water drink.-Adv.

1t should be obcycd by al who have

Disability or Dcsertion. If your
plea is disability, ask someone as to

can then conscientiously refuse to
take anything at ali no Il will o.

There is more Catarrh in this section
Of the country than all other diseases
put together, and for years it was sup
posed to be incurable. Doctors prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing
to cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional con-
ditions and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine, manufactured by L. J. Cheney &

i GERMANY ANXIOUS
selfshness, They Say, Won't Let vii
son Cut off Teuton Markets.

The Hague, June 6.-The furious
| annexationist propaganda, having its
origin in the industrial centers of the
Rhine Province and Weslphalia, which
is flooding all Germany, is met by in
creasing anxiety in banking and ex-
port circles regarding Germany's eco
nomic situation after the war. Al
though they are howled down by the
Reventlowians and other annexation
ist enthusiasts, the great German
banking papers constantly repeat their
warnings. Apparently cooler-headed
Germans realize fully that they would
pay for annexing the smallest portion
of France or Belgium by losing all
hope of recovering their world mar
kets.
In order TO overcome this less noisy
but increasingly powerful opposition,
the annexationists resort to new
argument, namely, that American self.
ishness Will not allow President Will
sons administration or any other Gov
eminent to deprive America OF the ad-
vantage of reciprocal trade with the
Central Empires. The National Lib
eral organs of the industrial magnates
now assert, in direct contradiction of
what they said a month ago, that the
entry of the United States into the
war will not produce economic disas-
ters outweighinG Germany's military

the worlds markets to German trade,

might be. her financial ruin would be |
