F. KIDNEYS ACT
 BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have been eating too
 much meat

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eat ing too much meat, says a well known auth ority. Meat forms uric acid which ove-works the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and 1oggy. When your kidneys get slug giGh and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; 5'emov- ing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache. dizzy spells: your stomach sou-s, tongue ia coated and wher the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of D. diment, channels often get sore. water sca1ds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 Either consult a good. reliable pf1y- sician at once or get from your phar- macist about four ounces of lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water Eefore breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com b;ned with lith-a, Lnd has been used for generations to clean Ind stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutraIize acids in the urine so it no longer ir- ritates, thus ending bladder weak aess.

J. D. ROCKEFELLER
 JR. APPROVES OF Y. w. c. A. ACTIVITIES

John D. Rockefeller, Junior, in a letter to officials of the Nationa, Board of the Young Women's Chris tfan Association, expressing his opin- ion on their stand in industrial mat ters. says in part:
 '1n view of the increasingly i'm portant part which women are talk ing in industry, it is eminently ap- propriate that the Young Women $ Christian Association should inter- est itself in the industrial problem.
 The Association, like the Church can render it's largest service in the industrial field, not by seeking to enunciate programs, but rather by emphasizing the great fundamental principles of righteousness and jus tice, in accordance with which alone sane and adequate programs can be developed
 '"The Association may well stand for such fundamental principles in industry as these: The sacredness of personality, representation the ap- plication of the Golden Rule coop eratiCn between the several parties to industry. Not only should it stand for these principles, but it should seek in every way to give them cur rency in the daily lives of those whom it influences. Thus there will be built up a foundation upon which sane programs can be worked out by those who are experts in the particu- lar field. Thus there will be set up standards by which the soundness of such programs can be tested from time to time in the light of current f.nndi-inns and nresant needs s'

 The model featured here is very simple to execute. as you see-a waist with a raglan sleeve and perfectly straight and simple skirt. The dis tinction of it lies in it's trimming which uniquely happens to be flag goting.
