 regularly

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou- ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi- ness. sleeplessness. bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at- tended by sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take tablespoonful in 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 1ithia and has been used for gen. erations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neu- traiize the acids in urine so 1t no longer causes irritation. thus ending bladder disorders.

Vanity Is Fatal
 To The Singer

The glamour of a great singers life takes hold of youthful fancy, and no obstacle looks big enough to stand in the way of achievement. But the obstacles are there seen and unseen. Artists are constantly open to unkind judgment for their failure to swell the hopes of young talent, and frank opinion is expressed when flat tery is wanted. Right here is when vanity is the young singers most
 dangerous enemy. If it is in you
 smother it. Be. honest to yourself
 and able to. listen to unpleasant
 truths with profit. The majority of
 students never will accomplish this. Instead of acknowledging a debt of real gratitude to an honest critic, they go in search of some one who will gratify their vanity, and unfortunate ly the search is never a long one. The average student is not able to see her limitations, and she does not care to.
 The only cure is, to drop the ma l jority class, forsake it, resign, other
