 The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; i; they get sluggish; the elfminative tis- sues clog and thus the waste is re- tained in the blood to poison the en- tire system.
 When your kidneys ache and feel ike Jumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the. night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleep1essness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take d tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine.

New York, N Jan. l6.--Rear Admiral

belief in the possibility of a rocket
reaching the moon from the earth.
In answer to an editorial expression
of incredulity as to the powers OF the
device invented by Professor r. II.
Goddard Of Clark college and tested un-
der the auspices Of the Smithsonian
institution, the admiral wrote to a
newspaper little essay about what
a proiectile will do in a vacuum.
When he was in the naval academy
his class was asked the following ques-
tion in examination.

rocket would ascend in vacuum, and
that the propelling force of rocket
was nothing but continuous kick.
