BIGEATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a Glass of Salts Before
Breakfast if Your Back
Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You

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 tilled
with uric acid which the kidneys
strive to filter out, they weaken from
overwork, become sluggish; the elm
NATIVE 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 relief 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
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
clogged kidneys; to neutraliZe the
acids in the urine so it no longer is
a source of irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
lad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
iniure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithia water beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake by having good kidney
flushing any time-AdV.

HELPFUL HINTS

An extension lamp should be part
of the equipment of every car. Get a
socket and fasten it to some conven-
lent part of the dash and tap your
leads at some convenient part of the
circuit usually the fire box. The
long cord enables you to reach any
part of the car. Get the same kind
of lamp and socvet as is used on your
car: either single wire or double wire.
Then if the cord will not reach to the
back of the car you can use the sock
etc in the tail lamp.
The next best device is a pocket
flash lamp. 1t may be used any
where but is not so satisfactory as
the battery must be renewed occas-
ionally. On this account it must be
flashed, as steady light from it will
run it down in very short time.
Go over the fastenings of the start
ing and lighting system occasionally
to make sure that they are not com
ing loose. Try the bolts and screws
to see If they may not be frightened a
little more. These may readily be
loosened by the shaking of the car
and so they must be watched.
Go over the wires at the same time
to see if they are properly secured,
are not chatting where they touch
some other part and that the armor
is not sliding up to the terminal so as
to make a short circuit. If il comes
loose wrap it well with electric tape.
Also try the fastenings at each
lamp. The swaying of the wires
causes them to weaken where they
enter the lamp, so that they may
break readily, sometimes it makes
such drag on the wire that it pulls
loose. So carry a small screw driver
and try the fastenings of your wires
in the sockets. By attention to the
above hints you will avoid having to
look for trouble when it is least con-
venient to hunt for it---at night.
