\ SPOONFUL OF SALTS RELIEVES
 ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat, which clogs Kidneys, says
 noted authority.

If back hurts or Bladder bothers, stop all meat for
 a while., When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat. says a well-known
 authority. Meat forms uric acid which
 overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they
 become sort of .paralyzed ana loggy.
 When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you
 relieve your bowels: removing all the
 body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twingcs.. The urine is cloudy. full of sediment. channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night .#
 Either consult a good, reliable phy- slcian at once or get from your phar- macist about four ounces of lad Salts: take a 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 lithia, and has been used . for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer ir- ritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is life saver for regular meat eaters It is inexpensive. cannot injure and makes a delightful, effer- vescent ithta- water drink.

At the meeting of the Berlin Sons Df Veterans association held at the home of Judge George G.

The matter has been under serious consideration for the past few weeks, but up to last night. there had been no actual move made fby either individuals or societies to carry out the work of raising money. Many of the citizens are heartily in flavor of the movement and after the suhscription paper has started it will be but a short time before the neces- sary funds are or hand to purchase the flag and pole.

II Is being talked that some Of the
Waxahachie physicians recently de-
stroyed a body BY burning ii. The
matter has been investigated and the
report is absolutely untrue. Some
Of the physicians had a part OF an
old skeleton that they had had for
several years and had the old broken
bones placed in furnace and de-
stroyed them. The physicians who
did this are under special license
from the state anatomical hoard be-
sides being licensed for the practice
OF medicine and did not violate any
Law in the least. besides they are
under bond 10 the state OF Texas
that they VIII detroy old skeletons

more, they were acting in good faith
and were keeping the old bones for
the purpose of studying anatomy
