IF BACkACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat also take glass of
Salts before eating
breakfast

Uric acid in meat eXcites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like Jumps of lead. The
Urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is
iylitated, and you may be obliged to
seek relief two or three times during
the night When the kidneys clog you
must help them flush off the body's
urinous waste or you'll be a real sick
person shortly. At first YOU feel dun
misery in the kidney region. you suf-
fer from bachache, sick headache, diZ-
illness, stomach gets sour, tongue coat
ed and you feel rheumatic twinges
when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces Of Jad Salts; take tablespoon
full in n glass of water before break
fast for a 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
clogged kidneys and stimulate them to
normal activity. also to neutralize the
acids in urine, so il no longer is a
source of irritation, thus ending blad-
der weakness.
lad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active. Druggists
here say they sell lots of Jad Salts TO
folks who believe in overcoming kid
ney trouble while it is only trouble.

A novelty in the way of Identification
tags which is quite popular among Au-
gusta young ladies and who are send
ing them to their gentlemen friends
who are in the military service of the
United States, both overseas and in the
training camps on tits side of the wa
ter is in the form OF n locket which in
closes the tag and which is suspended
from the neck Of the wearer by a circ-
let of tape, the tape being required by
the government. The lockets are Of
silver, some of them also being gold
filed cases, While still others are Of
solid gold. One locket which was
shown Saturday by an Augusta Jewel
er was of solid 14karat gold and was
to be ornamented on one side with the
monogram Of the one to whom it was
to be sent. The lockets make very
neat receptacle for the identification
tags and at the same time protect
them from injury

THREE DAYS MORE
Registration Of German Alien Enemies
Will Continue to Wednesday Night

A telephone message was received
Saturday afternoon at the Office Of City
Marshal Tyler. from the office of Unit
ed States Marshal j. s. p. H. Wilson of
Portland, stating that the registration
of German alien enemies. which had
been in progress during the past week,
would be continued on Monday. Tues
day and Wednesday of this week. this
being in response to a telegram re-
ceived Saturday at the office of the
United States marshal, from Attorney
General Gregory at Washington. D. c.
Under the previous ruling Saturday
would have been the last day for reg
istration, but it is believed here that
many Germans throughout the country
have, for some reason. not yet been
registered and the extension of time
was decided on to give them a last
chance and thus avoid the penalties
attached for registration,
