Take a Glass of Salts If Your Back

No man or woman who eats meat

ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well.known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the Kidneys,
they become oyerworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the
waste and poisons from the blood, then
we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism,
headaches, liver trouble, nervousness,
dizziness, slecplessness and urinary dis
orders come from sluggish Kidneys
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of

tended by sensation of scalding, stop
eating meat and get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful in a glass of water be-
fore breakfast and in a few days your
kidneys win act fine. This famous

and lemon juice. combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush and stimulate the kidneys, also
to neutralize the acids in urine so ii no

At KANSAS CITY CLOSE
Shortage of Coal Makes Drastic Step
Necessary--Cold Wave Is Caus-
ing Hardship.

Chicago Nov. 2S.--Cold weather with
snow and sleet storms to-day had
spread over the middle west and south
west and rendered more critical the fuel
situation brought about by the strike
of bituminous coal miners who have
been idle four weeks. In many cities
and towns the coal shortage was acute
with actual suffering in prospect in
some localities. Moderation of the cold
wave by tomorrow, however, was fore
cast.
In the large producing coal fields of
Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and West Virginia the miners appar-
entity were firm in their determination
not to return 10 work until some wage
adjustment was agreed upon In fact,
some district officials of the United
Mine Workers in West Virginia pre-
dicted that many men who had re-
turned to work would walk out again
to-day.
With no prospect Of an immediate
resumption of production in sight and
no indication of what the next step by
the government toward providing fuel
would be, following breaking off Of the
miners-o operators negotiations at Wash
ington, efforts of Governor Henry j.
Allen of Kansas to obtain volunteers to
mine coal, and the announcement by
Frederick d. Gardner, governor of Mis-
souri,, that he would call conference
of governors of coal producing states
unless the government acted to-day, at.

The most drastic conservation meas

In Chicago to-day there were renewed
reports that train schedules were to be
curtailed further, but this was not con
firmed from Walker d. Hines, director
general of railroads.
Virtually all the mines that had re-
manned In operation or where work had
been resumed were idle yesterday, be-
ing a holiday, but those mines generally
were expected to continue production
to-day despite breaking up of the

no reports Of changes in the general

Chicago, Nov. 2S.--Snow ranging in
depth from two feet to an inch to-day
covered all the country between the
Mississippi river and the Sierra Nevada
mountains, and from Canada to north
ern Texas, with low temperatures pre-
vailng through the area. A slight
snowfall occurred in northern Illinois,
Indiana and as far east as Toledo, o.,
while word came that some snow fell
in Los Angeles, CAL, and that two
inches of snow covered the ground at
the aviation field near Riverside, Cal.
South of the snow belt there were
heavy rains, and floods swept the low
lands bordering the Salt and Aqua Fria
rivers in Arizona with possible loss of
life.
Suffering in many places in the CEN
trail and southwestern sections was in
prospect because of the extreme cold
and the limited fuel supply resulting
from the coal strike. Cattle on the
western ranges also were reported en-
dangered.
In the western plains states trains
were. badly delayed and wire commu-
nication was crippled.
Lander, Dyo., was the coolest place
in the country according to reports,
the thermometer there being 20 degrees
below zero. At Abilene, Tex, it was
six degrees above zero.
