# BACK HURTS
BEGIN ON SALTS
Flush your kidneys occasionally
if you eat meat
regularly.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which clogs the kidney pores so
they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
BILE, nervousness, constipation, dizzi-
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts, or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full Of
sediment, irregular Of passage or at
tended by a sensation Of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water be-
fore breakfast for 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 gen.
erations to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to activity, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine SO it no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure: makes delightful effer-
vescent Whitewater drink which all
regular meat eaters should take now
and then to keep the kidneys clean
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.

Washington.-In spite of the wide
gulf between the insistence of the CEN
trail powers for an immediate peace
conference, and the forecast of unan-
imous refusal by the entente allies to
enter such a conference without know

American government believes that

MARKET At SPOKANE.

The most important general bust
ness factor of the week has been the
continuance in more definite and per-
sistent form of peace talk. This has
tended to depress trading and caused
of merchandise, but in the case of
some others, such as cotton and COT
fee, it is believed peace would
strengthen the market. But as gen.
eral proposition, no particular slump
is expected in any event, as most
manufacturers are booked to their
full capacities for several months in
the new year.
There continues shortage of ships
for export business on both coasts,
with rates high. Domestic transpor-
tation conditions have also been bad
with freight congestion and virtual
freight embargo on many articles, but
it is believed this condition will i'm
prove after the first of the year, with
the holiday movement of goods over.
The governments December crop
report shows that while crops in tho
aggregate for the entire country were
short this year and prices high, crops
in this state and section have been
generally good, with prices high.

Grain, Flour and Feed.

Wheat-Following the big break Of
the previous two weeks, the market
has been very erratic this week.
Early in the week there was some
further declines, then Wednesday the
Chicago market advanced 3 to 6
cents. This was followed by slight
declines yesterday and today, leav-
ing the market now not materially
changed from the figures of a week
ago; at country points in this section
$1.37 for bluestem, $1.32 for club and
$1.31 for Red Russian. Since Christ
mas, however, there has been prac-
tically nothing doing on this coast in
the way of notable buying or selling
movements. Lack of cars continues
to retard the movement of wheat to
tidewater and restricts export opera
tions. Statistically, however, and
aside from peace talk influences, the
situation is one of strength.
Flour-In sympathy with the recent
slump in wheat, there has been de-
cline locally of 25 cents on patents
to So and SITS. Local mills have
been booking big orders this season
for eastern shipment and the goods
are going forward as consistently as
transportation conditions permit.
Feed-The situation is sympathet-
ically unsettled, but there are no
price changes except declines in feed
wheat and corn.

mand and without material change
