We. are nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says a
well-known authority, who warns us to
be constantly on guard against kidney
trouble.
& The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog

four ounces of Jad Salts; take a
tablespoonful in glass of water before
breakfast each morning and in few
days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
ithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys,
to neutralize. the acids in urine SO it is
no longer source of irritation, thus
ending urinary and bladder disorders.

all about.
""The Pigeon family said Mr.. and

both good and bad?' ss

But the guests had been invited and
there was nothing to do but make the

sprang to their feet and drank to the
new year, deep and long,.

She took only hurried sip at her

ran and opened the front door.

A TASTE OF VICTORY

The spontaneity with which Ca naan burst forth into the celebration of the news that General Foch had begun a successful offensive and the American soldiers were gallantly doing their part to help the Allies ''put it across" could not mean that we were unmindful of the many lives that were being paid as the price for every step of the advance, nor of our debt of gratitude that the prayers of many months were being answered, nor of the many days and perhaps years of terrific struggle and agony that must pass before our resource ful and determined foe is vanquish- ed but it did indicate how tense our anxiety has been, and what relief for pent up feelings a change in the for tunes of war can bring.
