acid which clogs the kidney pores so
they sluggishly filter or strain only

blood, then you get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, constipation, dizziness,
sleeplessness, bladder disorders come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in

If the urine is cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage or

about four ounces Of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take table

salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to activity, also to neutralize the
acids in urine SO it no longer causes
irritation, thus ending bladder dis

the opinion that the institution could
use more farm land to good advantage

dition of the state prison at present.
Governor Gates favored an extension
of the present parole system of prison
crs, calling the system beneficial and
helpful. - He commended the work OF
the industrial school and favored in
creased educational advantages for the
institutions. lie outlined what has al
ready been accomplished to the estab
