FLUSH KIDNEYS
WITH SALTS IF
BACK IS ACHING
Noted Authority says we eat too
much meat, which clogs
Kidneys.
Take glass of Salts when Kidneys
hurt or Bladder bOthers
you.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the kidneys,
they become .overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter
the waste and poisons from the blood
then we get sick. Nearly all rheu-
matism, headaches. liver trouble,
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness
and urinary disorders come from
sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a 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,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy; take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys, will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with litha, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the
acdis in urine so it no longer causes
Irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
iniure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia water drink which every
one should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active and the
blood pure thereby avoiding serious
Kidney complications.

BLUEBIRD PICTURE
AT FOX'S THEATER

In The Rescue" the feature Of the
Fox theater program for today and
tomorrow, the Bluebird Production
Co. has fashioned g. photoplay drama
which rises to the heights of superb
dramatic excellence, and 1t presents
Dorothy Phillips with one Of the best
parts Of her altogether exceptional
career. In the supporting company
are five of the prettiest girls in the
movies today. The story is an adap-
tation Of a magazine story by Hugh
Kahler, and it tells the unusual expe-
rience of a divorced woman who falls
in love with her ex-husband. 1t is a
decidedly unusual situation and has
been worked UP in a surprisingly I'M
usual manner. Bluebird always seems
to procure remarkable and out-of-
the-way vehicles for Miss Phillips and
her supporting cast and THE Rescue"
is no exception to the rule, as it is
certainly out of the ordinary and filled
with surprises. and unusual twists.
The star has that variety Of role
which taxes an actress to the utter
most, but she takes advantage of
every opportunity presented. Quick
changes of mode, quick changes Of ex-
preston which signify at times two
distinct and separate meanings she is
called upon to effect, and she never
fails to produce strfkingly success
full result. AS Anne wetherel, she is
told Of the intense love existing be-
ween her former husband and one of
her close friends, Betty Jerrold. The
information brings her to the realiza-
ton that she herself has never ceased
to love the man whom she divorced,
and the thought of him being won by
another drives her to desperation.
The course she pursues in attempting
to break up the proposed match and
the surprising result Of the whole af-
fair make up one of the most enter
tanning and crisp photodramas that
has been seen in some time
The sixteenth chapter of "The Fatal
Ring will also be on the program
AS this fetching serial is rapidly ap-
preaching its conclusion, there being
but three more episodes after the
present the interest is heightened to
the nth power of excitement and
thrilling possibilities. And in this
chapter something is sprung that has
an Immediate bearing on the solution
of the picture.
Another popular feature Of the
extraordinary program will be 1.-THE
Cheese Tanners" a thrilling spectacle
in which those well-known tragedians,
Mutt and jeff, will have the featured
roles. The Pathe News will also be

Do you collect Bromidioms? I be-
lieve the genius who suggested that
inimitabae distinction between the
Sulphide and the Bromide limited that
it would more likely be the Bromides
than the Sulphides who would collect

Bromidioms are common by the
