KEEP URIC ACID
 OUT OF JOINTS
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Eat Less Meats and
 Take Salts.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than -p cure, states a well-known author l.y. We are advised tO dress warm ly; keep the feet dry; avoid expos ure; 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 1t out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are clos ed thus forcing the kidneys to do dou- ble work, they become weak and slug glish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accommodating and circulating through the system, even tuaIly settling in the joints and mus cles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism.
 At the first twinge of rheuna tism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put a tablespoon full in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with nthia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent Whitewater drink which helps overcome uric acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as weIT-A dv.

RABID DOC HAD
 OVER 1000 BITES
Terrible Record - Quarantine i'll Danbury and Surround
 ing Towns.

A ra-bid dog, which was killed last
 week in Danbury, was 50 fond of tits with other dogs that more than 1000 bites were found on his body. This statement was made yesterday by James NJ Whittlesey, commissioner of domestic animals, in explaining that quarantine, to go into effect Monday, March 8, and to continue un- til revoked by the commissioner, had been put on Danbury and surround ing towns, including Ridgefield, Bethel, Broolzffeld and New Fairfield This action is made necessary be- cause of the appearance of rabies in that section, and the fact that within a comparatively short time two rabid dogs have been killed in that vicinity. Other dogs were bitten by the rabid dogs, and a natural consequence to expect is that there will be other cases.
 The quarantine provides that dogs must be kept on the owners prem ises, and not allowed on the highway except on leash.
 This case is the second in Darbury wltL4n a week. The first of these two ra1id dogs bit eleven other dogs before 1t was killed. With 1000 marks of battle on the second canine, it is certain that other dogs were bitten by him. The second animal was black and white setter, with a New Haven registration tag. He was killed by the dog warden of Danbury. The dogs head was sent to the laboratory of the state board of health in New Haven, and 8 positive diagnosis of ra- bles was made.
 Commissioner Whittlesey said yes terday that any moving object will at tract a rabid dog, and that particles of stone, wood, hay. etc. are often found in rabid dogs stomachs. These dogs, he added, often bit the wheels of a moving vehicle. They often run sixty miles before they die of rabies or are killed, and the spread of rabies would not be controlled if the quaran- tine was effective in only one town. Some time ago 0 blanket quarantine was ordered on all towns west of the Connecticut river, but this has been lifted from all but a few towns.
