# KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
5ays Baakache is a aign you have BEEN
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says 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 and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; q
moving 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 twinges. 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 physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
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, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutraize acids in the urine 30 1t
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is q life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
iniure and makes g delightful, eder'

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre,
or when it fades. turns gray, dull and
lifeless, Is caused by lack Of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands Of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade Of hair which Is so at
tractive, use only|this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition of other
ingredients by asking at any drug
store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair SO naturally, 80 evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell 1t has
been applied. You just dampen
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance Of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful ap-
pearance to the hair. It Is not in
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention Of disease.

NEW YORK AVIATOR
OUTWITS HUN FLIERS

With the American Army North
west OF Verdun, Oct. 4.-With his
airplane riddled by machine gun bull
lets and hemmed in by German ma
chimes Aviator Ted Haight of New
York city, yesterday pretended to be
out Of commission and landed within
the German lines. After hurriedly
repairing his damaged machine he
ascended and got back OF his own
lines, successfully lodging the as
tonished Germans on the ground and
in the air.
Haight was in a group of airplanes
protecting American observers be-
yond the American lines. He was at
tackled by the Germans and 13 ma
chine gun bullets penetrated various
parts of his airplane, three of them
striking the propeller. The Germans
circled around him to prevent him
from reaching his own lines. Haight
descended quickly and landed in a
field behind the German lines. The
airmen apparently took it for grant
ed that Haight was out of commits
sion and';left his capture to the men
on the ground: ....
One bullet had severed a battery
wire in Haisht's machine. This was
quickly repaired and before the Ger
man foot soldiers, could reach Haight
he had ascended and was making for
the American lines. The German
airplanes pursued him but were not
quick enough to catch the fleeing
American.
