URIC ACID IN MEAT
BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says a Little Salts in Water May Save
You from Dread
Attacks.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states well-known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly; keep
the feet dry avoid exposure: eat less
meat, but drink plenty Of good water.
rheumatism is a direct result of eat
ing too much meat and other rich foods
that produce uric acid which is absorbed
into the blood. 1t 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 a 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 aeeumusting and cir
settling in the oints and muscles, causing
stiffness, soreness and pain called rheu-
matisma
At the first twinge of rheumatism get
from any pharmacy about four ounces
Of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a
glass of water and drink before break
fast each morning for week This is
said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating
the kidneys to normal action, thus rid.
ding the blood of these impurities,
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia and
is used with excellent results by thou
asnds of folks who are subject to rheu-
matism. Here YOU have pleasant, efTer-
vescent lithia water drink which helps
overcome uric acid and is beneficial to
your kidneys as well-Adv.

HOME FROM so. AMERICA.
Prof. George K. Cherrie of Newfane, the
Well-Rnown Naturalist.

Prof. George w. Cherrie of Newfane,
wel-known naturalist, has ust returned
to his home after six months stay in
South America in the interest Of the
American Museum Of Natural History
in New York.
Prof. Cherrie left New York July 5,
going by rail to Washington and New
Orleans, thence by boat to the Isthmus
Of Panama. On the return he sailed
from the island of Curacao Feb 10 by
way Of Porto Rico, reaching New York
Feb, Is.
On his outward trip he made a short
stay on the isthmus visiting several
points on the coast of Colombia, includ.
ing Cartegena and Baranquilla, going
thence into Venezuela, where headquar
tiers were established in Caracas. Thence
he visited points along the coast from
La Guaira westward and northward TO
Peurto Cabelo, thence north along the
coast to the extreme northern point Of
the Paraguana peninsula.
The territory covered was OF particular
interest to the museum authorities, mas
much as previously no systematic ZOO
logical work has been carried on in that
region. Large collections Of birds and
other specimens previously had been
made in the region TO the westward in
Colombia and an equally large collection
had been brought together from points
TO the eastward near the mouth Of the
Orinoco river, British Guiana and TriHi-
dad, so the collections on the present trip
filed the gap between those two areas.
Prof. Cherrie first devoted about three
months to work in the high mountains
Of the northen coast range Of Veuez-
uela, region where there is great rain
fall and consequently luxuriant trOpi-
cal vegetation, and where one may east
ly in a days time tramp from sea level
10 an altitude of between 1000 and To-
600 feet The last three months were
spent in the more or less arid coast
region of the Paraguana peninsula and
the mainland Immediately southwark.
This latter region was of special inter
est, particularly the Paraguana PENN
sula. for the reason that as whole
the peninsula Is characteristic OF all dry,
arid regions, the vegetation consisting al
most entirely of cacti of various forms
and low thorny shrubs and trees. While
almost in the center of the peninsula
is a short range OF hills rising to an al
titude of $500 to 5000 feet.
The top of this range of hills, accord
ing to the natives who live in that coun-
try. Is constantly cloud-capped, and the
sides of the mountains are heavily for
ested and bright green in color, in sharp
contrast with the surrounding arid
plain. Being thus so isolated from 9th
er areas of tropical vegetation, he natur
ally expected to find bird and animal
life that had undergone slight transfer
nations, due to their isolation. Good
sized collections were made in these
hills as we'll as from the surrounding
country.
Up to the present time there has been
no opportunity to compare these collec-
tious with material in the museum from
other parts of South America, so it is
no. yet known in Just what particular
the present material differs from that
found in other regions,

Women in Business.

Womans power in America is well il.
lustrated by the thousands Of women
who entered almost every line of business
to replace men who were drafted during
the war. Health proved their strongest
asset. Many women, however, developed
weak, nervous conditions and could not
stand the strain of business life Such
women should remember there is one
tried and true remedy in Lydia L.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound which
for forty-fve years has been restoring
health and strength to the women of
America.-Ady.
