f KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is a sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworls
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
tablespoonful in a 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
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine 80 it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, cannot
iniure and makes delightful, effer-
yescent lithia-wa ter drink.

boxing match
Kid Hogan, from Souther Field.
better known as Knockout" hogan,

the Supply Depot. Lass, who has
been out of training for some time,
put up a valiant fight, and he stood
with his opponent until Captain Shee-
ner. The victor is an exceptionally
dy, referee, declared Hogan the win
good boxer, clever in his points, and
he placed his blows with marked pre-
cision. Lass declared he would meet
Hogan again in the near future.
A sprained ankle received by John
Mann from the Supply Depot, stopped
an interesting bout with Charles II.
Kossouth, fro mSouther Field. Both
boxers are about the same weight and
the contest had reached an interesting
pitch when Mann was declared unable
to fight.
Major Wash and Lieutenant Sloan
were the judges and Lieutenant John
son, athletic director of the Cadets,
was the official timer Lieutenant
Griffin. commanding officer of the Ca
diets, also acted as an official Cadet

SAGE TEA DANDY
To DARKEN HAIR
It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color and
LuStre to Hair.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau
dfully dark and lustrous almost over
night II you'll get bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" at any
drug store. Millions of bottles of this
old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved
10y the addition of other ingredients,
are sold annually. says a well-known
druggist here, because it darkens the
hair so naturally and evenly that no
one can tell it has been applied.
Those whose hair is turning gray or
becoming faded have surprise await
ing them, because after one or two
applications the gray hair vanishes
and your locks become luxuriantly
dark and beautiful.
This is the age of youth. Gray
haired, unattractive folks aren't
wanted around, so get busy with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
tonight and you'll be delighted with
your dark, handsome hair and your
youthful appearance within a few
days.
This preparation is toilet requisite
and is not intended for the cure, miti-
cation or prevention of disease.
