TAKE SALTS To
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
Bladder troubles you-Sslts is
fine for Kidneys

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their efforts
to filter it from the system. Regular eat
ers of meat must flush the kidneys occa-
sionally. You must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
acids, waste and poison, else you feel a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, diz-
illness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get ~irritated, obliging you to get
up two or three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine and bladder disorders dis
appear. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate slug
gish kidneys and stop bladder irritation.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoiding
serious kidney and bladder diseases.

checked people everywhere. The rea-
son Is that the human system does not
rid itself each day Of all the waste
which It accumulates under our pres
emit mode of living. For every ounce
Of food and drink taken into the system
nearly an ounce of waste material
must be carried out. else It ferments
and forms ptomaine-ike poisons which
are absorbed into the blood.
Just as necessary as 1t is to clean
the ashes from the furnace each day,
before the fire will burn bright and
hot, so we must each morning clear
the inside organs Of the previous days
accumulation Of indigestible waste and
body toxins. Men and women, whether
sick or well, are advised to drink each
morning, before breakfast. a glass OF
real hot water with q teaspoonful OF
limestone phosphate in 1t, as a harm

WOMEN WORKERS.

My dear Co-Workers Of Abbeville:
l know from your efficient chair
man that the women of AbbeviAe
are we'll organized and ready to
launch the biggest and best cam
paign that they have ever under
taken. The work done in the Third
Liberty Loan and Red Cross demon
strates the spirit of good fellowship
and team work that is characteristic
of the Abbeville women.
Every day as we read the casualty
list in the War News from cover
There" we realize how big a part
the women are playing in this world
crisis. Our sisters in England and
the other allied nations know the
meaning of the word sacrifice" in
a way that is yet to come home to
us. So many of our husbands, bro
theirs and sons have already gone
and a million more are shortly to
be called. Sixteen and sixty are
fighting side by side Somewhere in
France" and we women in the Sec
ond line of defense must not only
take the places of Jul men that
have been called, but must also
keep up their courage and morale.
To do this we must respond to ev-
cry call, whether it is War Savings
Stamps, Liberty Loan or Red Cross.
"Our Boys" must be fully equipped,
armed and fed and we want them
to know that we are backing them
and doing our utmost for them at
all times.
The war situation is most grave,
more SO than the majority Of us
realize and we must welcome cam
paign after campaign for the cause
of victory and feel that it is our
privilege and opportunity to be able
to participate in them. Try to make
every person you come in contact
with visualize what "Our Boys" are
daily facing and I am sure that ev-
cry man, woman and child will catch
the spirit, for we can only win this
wal when as a united people we

is made of the Senator for permits

If the public has been inclined
to feel that the publishers of the
country have been over-empha
sizing the high cost of print
paper, the figures compiled by
Ayers Newspaper Directory
should dispel this illusion. The
annual shows that approximately
1900 publications in the United
States and Canada suspended
operations last year. The mum
Der included 62 dailies, 60 semi
weeklies and 500 weeklies. Run
ming a newspaper is no gold
mine at best, and with a delin
quent list of fully one thousand
it becomes a load that makes the
running a walk; a hint might be
contained in this for those who
are reading the Post-Dispatch or
a credit.
