uric acid in MEAT
Brings RHEUMATISM

ity. We are advised to dress warmly;
keep the feet dry; avoid exposure: eat
less meat. but drink plenty Of good
water.
rheumatism is direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid. which is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function Of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also means of freeing the blood OF
this impurity. In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acid,
which keeps accommodating and circu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles
causing stiffness, soreness, and pain
called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism

ounces Of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon

fore breakfast each morning for a

Mrs. Fowler requests all sing
ers to communicate with he1. =.
and they will be notified when
to meet for organization.
Glee clubs and choruses have
been potent influences in great
movements, and they can be of
great service in the patriotic

sing should take advantage of
the opportunity and report to
Mrs. Fowler. 1t is desired to
make the chorus just as large
as possible.

variance in the matter of re-

that on a given day in March all

given day in October they
should be turned back an hour.
At this time some folks be-
