that is less than one-ffth Of the nor

country. The people are asked to use
more sorghum and syrups and less

This is a movement that should ap-

spirit of thrift of the American peo-

bacon and beef saved the better off

HEAVY MEAT EATERS
HAVE SLOW KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have bladder trouble-Take
glass of Salts

No man or woman who eats meat reg1l-
larly can make a mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
o The moment you feel dull ache in tho
Kidneys or your back hurts or if tho
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended by
sensation of scalding, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a
tablespoonful in a. glass of water before
breakfast and in few days your kidneys
will 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
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine 80 it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness. O.
9 Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications,
