URIC ACID IN MEAT
Brings RHEUMATISM
Says a Little Salts in Water May Save
You From Dread Attack.

Rheumatism Is easier to avoid than
to cure, states well known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly; keep
the feet dry: avoid exposure; eat less
meat, but drink plenty of good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid, which is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
acid from the blood and cast it out IN
the urine: the pores of the skin are
also a 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 circulating
thru the system. eventually settling in
the Joints and muscles, causing stin-
ness, soreness and pain called rheuma-
tism.
At the first twinge Of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces Of Jad Salts: put a tablespoon
fnl in glass Of water and drink before
breakfast each morning for a week.
This is said to eliminate uric acid by
stimulating the kidneys to normal &C
ton, thus Kidding the blood Of these
impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleas
ant. effervescent lithia water drink
which helps overcome uric acid and Is
beneficial to your kidneys as well.

FORBES MASTER OF TRIckERY
outwitted Opponents BY Camouhasins
Distress in Rinq.

OlSSTeSS VI nH9s
Chicago, Feb. 20.-Camoufaging dis
trees and then stretching his bewilder-
ed opponent on the canvass with q
knockout punch. was a favorte trick
Of Clarence Forbes, a brother Of Harry
former bantamweight champion, and
who recently died in the state hospital
at Elgin, III. He was 81 years old.
Forbes was regarded as one of the
trickiest and hardest punching boxers
ever developed in Chicago. He began
his career as bantam and later
fought as featherweight. He once
fought for bantamwcight champion
ship. It was a favorite trick of his to
take punch on the back of the head
and then wabble around the ring as if
distressed.
Tricked into believing another punch
would finish him. Forbes opponents
would come in only to receive a clip
on the chin. His record Is dotted with
knockouts thus scored.
Oldtimers say Forbes put over one
of the quickest and most amusing
knockouts on record. He was boxing
an unknown" in q Michigan town
several years ago, and. after receiving
the usual instruction from the referee,
returned to their corners to await the
bell. When the contest started Forbes
rushed to the center of the ring and
yelled: ..
"Hey, take that chair out &C that
guys corner"
The unknown" tricked into believ-
ing his seconds hadn't removed his
chair. turned his head toward his
corner Forbes snapped over terrific
right handler to the chin. knocking his
foe completely out.
The incident was so amusing that
Forbes laughed himself His opponent
never knew what happened.

DRAFT EvADER CAPTURED.
Sioux City Boy Claimed to Be Sole
Support Of Mother to Escape.


Sioux City. Feb. 21.-A few weeks
ago Robert Sydenstricker, % years old,
appeared before the local draft board
and procured deferred classification on
the ground that he was the sole sup
port of. his widowed mother.
Recently the members of the board
learned the young man was not the
support of his mother, learned that he
did not work and that he was sup
ported by his mother. Investigation
disclosed the fact that he had married
since securing deferred classification.
Evidently he knew he was being
looked for by the board for he could
not be located and the mother told the
board, my son is 1000 miles away
from Sioux City. You will never find
him."
But the officers found him at Elk
Point S. D. He has been turned over
to Deputy United States Marshall
Smith.

Paris, July -(Correspondence Of
the Associated Press. .)-The more
than a million men of the American
expeditionary forces constitutes the
most moral army in the world, ac-
cording to official statements Of the
United States medical corps.
Attributing the extremely low per-
centage of affected men in the army
to the medical programs Of the United
States forces, medical officers say
that the two important factors in the
production Of the most moral army
were vigorous work programs coupled
with the diversified recreations of the
camp and hygienic measures.
At a meeting Of the research society
Of the American Red Cross consisting
OF the medical officers OF the United
States army, the plan now in opera
ton in the training camps Of the
United States, where illicit houses and
the liquor traffic is suppressed was
spoken of as highly productive Of re-
suits.
The introduction in the training
camps of the United States Of athletic
games. libraries, recreation halls un-
der the Young Mems Christian asso-
| citation and other organizations, lee
lures, and wholesome amusements
was hailed as a great step in the So
luton Of the problem Of vice in the
army. The work Of the chaplains, the
universities and the press also was
mentioned as playing a great part In
the alienation.
The education Of men along moral
lines conducted by the medical Off

distributed among the men, by ex-
hibits and through the agencies Of the

ing camp activities served to keep the
men in the right mental attitude to.
