Uric Acid in Meat
Brings Rheumatism
Says little Salts In water may
save you from dread
attack.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a well-known author
ity. We are advised to dress warm
ly; keep the feet dry; avoid expo
sure; 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. It is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out
In the urine; the pores of the skin
are also 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 through the system,
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles causing stiffness, soreness
and pain called rheumatism.
AT the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts: put a table
spoonful in a 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 action, thus Kidding the blood
OF these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid OF grapes
ana lemon juice, combined with
hthla and is used with excellent re-
SUITS by thousands of folks who arc
SUBJECT to rheumatism. Here you
nave pleasant effervescent lithia-
water drink which helps overcome
uric acid and is beneficial to your
Kidneys as well.

HOG PRICES
TO CONTINUE
Despite Attacks Upon Present Scale
Of $3.50, Food Administration
Does Not Intend to
Change Policy.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The hog
price agreement policy Of the food ad-
ministration will be continued despite
attacks upon the present scale of
$3.50 in the face Of the present large
surplus, F. 8. Snyder, head of the
meat division, announced today.
1.-THE food administration will full
fill its pledge given to the hog pro-
ducers of the country on November
8, 1917" said Snyder. "The attack,
(by the Chicago board of trade) is
not justified, for the simple reason
that the surplus of hogs now in this
country will turn into a big deficit
before next summer if Europe can
get sufficient money and ships to
move the stuff"
The hog committee of the food adj
ministration will meet January % to
agree on a price for hogs during Feb
ruary.
"The visible demands will take
care of the surplus some time in
March," said Snyder. Spring will
see slight hog shortage instead Of
an overflow"
The agreement referred to by Sny-
der is the statement of Joseph P.
Cotton, chief of the meat division,
and now in Europe with Herbert
Hoover. The food administration has
no price-fxing powers, but is author
lied under the Lever act to make
agreements with industries for stabil-
lied prices.
Snyder declared that the high
prices are not of particular benefit to
the packers. in as much as the pack
ers' profits are limited.
'Tt will be found" said Snyder.
"that packers sales will not have
netted them the full nine percent
which they were allowed as a fair
profit"
Concerning the surplus, Snyder
said that the present supply of hogs
is two million less than 1915. His
figures show that the hog production
for 1916 was 43,073,7o3; in 1917 1t
was 33,909,664; in 1918 it totalled
4O,795,477. These figures represent
hogs inspected and slaughtered.
