No man or woman who cats meat regu-
larly can make mistake by flushing
the kidneys occasionally, says a we'll
known authority. Meat forms uric acid
which clogs the Kidney pores so they
sluggishly filter or strain only part of
the waste and pQisons from the blood,
then you get sick. Nearly all rhewma-
tism, headaches. liver trouble. nervous
ness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplcssness,
bladder disorders come from sluggish kid
news.
The moment you feel dull ache in the
kidneys or your back hurts, or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment irregular ri passage or attended
by a sensation OF soalding, get about four
ounces Of Jad Salts from any reliable
pharmacy and take a tablespoonful III
a glass Of water before breakfast for a
few days and your Kidneys will then act

INC acid of grapes and lemon juice, com

generations to flush cogged kidneys and

REBUILD GREAT
SIBERIAN RAILWAY
AMERICAN ENGINEERS MAY
TAKE PART IN WORK..

Irkutsk, Siberia, Feb. 20. Cor
pondence of The Associated Pross. y
American railroad engineers who will
doubtless come to Siberia in large
number in connection with the reor-
.ganization of the Trsn-Siberian rail
way will have much to do with the
region of the famous Lake Baikal
which is skirted on the south and
southeast by the great Russian rail
road. It is possible in the winter
months to cross the lake on sIads.
thus varying the monotony of the long
Journey, al1dA in summer by embark
ign OIL steamer. But the builders of
the railroad found it desirable to have
safe all-rail passage to Vladivostok,
so the way was hewed through ranges
of hills. Tie tunnels are now guard
ed by japanese troops.
Baikal which is one of the largest
fresh wGt't lakes in the Hor.d, is
called "Tl Holy Sea" by the Eus-
SLAMS who live in its vicinity. It is
only exceeded in size by the American
lakes Superior Michigan AMI Huron
and by Lake Nyanza in Africa. In
contour it resembles the human heart.
It attains at certain points the great
depth Of 2,l8- feet
A number of islands may be seen
as one crosses the water in the ndvi-
bagle season. The Buriats, descen-
dants of the Mongolians, who are
icurd numercuEly in the Baikal re-
gion, have a superstitious reverence
for the island of Olkhon as being the
residence of the Internal divinity, Reg
dozy, who is supposed to have under
his care the souls of the damned. The
scientist, Gheorghii, who visited the
island in 1872, declared that at 70
place in the then known world were
so many sacrifices made as on this
island. According to another Mongo-
lian tradition, Olkhon was the domain
and home of the ancient hero, Geng-
his Khan.
Americans who have seen the rocky
human profile in the White Mountains
OF New Hampshire would be inter-
ested in the spectacle on the eastern
short of the lake, to the north of Cape
Holy, where the summit If a per

He plans that the conference should take place aboard the on which they make the trip, between the visits that pay to the various parts of Alaska He will also endeavor to interest some of them to take trip into the in teror at the same time, at least part of the new Government railroad.
