Look at tongue! Then give

they love it.

Mother! Your child isn't natural
ly cross and peevish. See if tongue
is coated; this is a sure sign the lit
tie stomach, liver and bowels need a
cleansing at once.
When listless, pale, feverish, full
of cold, breath bad, throat sore,

member, a gentle liver and bowel
cleansing should always be the first
treatment given.
Nothing equals California Syrup

teaspoonful, and in few hours all
the foul waste, sour bile and fer
menting food which is clogged in
the bowels passes out of the system,
and you have a well and playful
child again. All children love this
harmless, delicious 'fruit laxative"
and it never fails to effect good

little given today saves a sick child
tomorrow, but get the genuine. Ask
your druggist for a bottle of "Cali-

EAT LESS MEAT
! IF BACK HURTS
Take a Glass of Salts to flush
Kidneys if Bladder bothers
you-Drink lots of water.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other, says a well-known
authority, because the uric acid in
meat excites the kidneys, they be-
come overworked; get sluggish; clog
up and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in
the kidney region; rheumatic
twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary
irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast
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 flush clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them to normal activity; also to
neutralize the acids in the urine so
it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which millions Of
men and women take now and then
to keep the kidneys and urinary or
cans clean, thus avoiding serious
kidney disease-Adv,

to the admission of foreign vessels
to coastwise trade, more than by
any other important commercial
country and to agree to the con-
version into free sea of any sea
now treated as a closed sea.
"a strong conviction greatly
strengthened and hardened by the
lessons of this war, to maintain the
minimum of safety for our people

any agreement conflicting or tam

"A belief that the conditions of

Medical authorities agree that the

the vital organs, such as the lungs,
heart, stomach, liver or kidneys.
Pneumonia, chronic bronchitis

later to claim the convalescent pa

Dyspepsia, weakness, nervous
ness, malnutrition and kindred all

lent after an epidemic of La Grippe.
Liver and bowel disorders, too, are
inclined to further delay the return
of perfect health. i, .ssg,...

elapse before complete good health
