Eat Less Meat
If Back Hurts
Take a Glass of Salts to flush Kid

Drink lots Of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts OF distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,

The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass OF
water before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
'bined with lthia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal ac-
tivity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.--Adv.

All because half-peck of potatoes

the theft was discovered that dogs

Says We Become
Cranks on Hot
Water Drinking,
Hopes every man and woman
adopts this splendid
morning habit.

Why is man and woman, half the

worried; some days headachy, dull

If we would all practice inside
bathing, what gratifying change
would take place. Instead of thou
sands of half-sick. anaemic-looking
souls with pasty, muddy compilations
we should see crowds of happy,
healthy, rosy-cheeked people every

system does not rid itself each day of
all the waste which it accumulates
under our present mode of living. For
every ounce of food and drink taken
into the system nearly an ounce of
waste material must be carried out,
else it ferments and forms ptomaine-
like poisons which are absorbed into
the blood.
Just as necessary as it is to clean
the ashes from the furnace each day,
before the fire will burn bright and

Washington, Feb. 2S.-Despite the
fact that Mrs. w. L. Colt, a promi-
nent New York society leader, has
arrived to begin her turn at picket
ing the White House, bearing with
her the approval of New York suf-
frage leaders, there is dissention in
the Congressional Union for woman
suffrage. Many of the more promi-
nent women are opposed to the Silent
sentinel" plan of forcing suffrage on
the attention of the president, at the
present time especially, when the
country faces the possibility of war.
Others are in favor OF continuing the
picketing, Va or no war. 1t had been
hoped that the arrival of Mrs. Colt,
bearing the approval of
New York leaders, would win over the
dissatisfied ones to the more militant
policy Of continuing the silent march
