EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys if bladder bothers
YOU

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other, says a well-known
authority. because the uric acid in
meat excites the kidneys. they be-
come overworked; get sluggish;
clog up and cause all sorts OF dis
tress, particularly backache and
misery In the kidney region: rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches,
acid stomach, constipation, torpid
liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urin-
airy Irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or "
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take n tablespoonful in n
glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys Will
then act fine, This famous salts ls
made from the acid OF grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithla,
and has been used for generations
to flush clogged kidneys and stimu-
late them TO normal activity; also
TO neutralize the acids In the urine so

bladder disorders.

One of the main questions to come
before the conference Is the disposi-
ton to be made of the five German
cables seized by the allies during the
war, including the two between the
United States and Emden, Germany.

The American Government Is par
ticularly interested in these two lines
and, It Is understood, will seek to
have them put at this country's dis
posal. laid, as they obviously were In
the first instance, because Of this
country's need Of them. 1t is not ex-
pected they would be operated by the
Government, however, but rather by
private enterprise which would be al

Great Britain is in control of about
so per cent Of the cables OF the
world, II is observed, France and
Japan controlling much of the re-
mainder. American possession of
some of the German cables, 1t Is
pointed out, would tend to distrib-

also But your countrymen must

THAT prediction came true, but not just
as Wilhelm expected" said Kossak with
grin, as he retold the conversation. Ger
tainly the map Of Poland has been changed.
That reference to the necessity OF Poles
being reasonable puzzled Kossak. SO.
few days later, he asked General Macken-
sen, whom he knew, what was meant.
YES, yes. 1 know all about that
Mackensen replied at once.
"I'll tell you: We feel that you Poles
may ask for Posen, and, of course, that

That also came true. The Poles did ask
for Posen. Rather, they demanded it, and

gress, although he could sway multitudes
with his Horid delivery? Recall, too,
Chauncey NJ. Depew.
With the exception Of Bryan and John
son, the list this year includes no great
spellbinder. Inasmuch as they are positively
shy on speechmaking, Coolidge or Hoover
may have the better chance. Wood is a con-
vincing speaker, but not a magnetic per-
sonality on the rostrum. Lowden, Harding
and Cox have been on the gubernatorial
stump, while Clark, McAdoo and Palmer
have had their innings as leaders in the
Wilson administration. Taft had four years
of presidential speechmaking, while Wilson
has had eight years of alternate speech
making and notewriting.
Speaking of Wilson brings up the old
bogie of the third term. When Wash
ington positively declined to serve after hi,
second term a precedent was said to have
been established. No one seriously thought
of it again until Grants time. After two
consecutive terms "Barkis was willin' " for
a third term, but Congress took firm stand
when the House adopted a resolution declar-
ing that the established precedent of Wash
ington in retiring after his second term had
