Argentine Provinces Would
Combine Against Capital
(By Associated Press)

fBy Associated PreSSD
BUENOS AIRES, Dec. 31.-The Ar
gentine provinces are trying to form
a combination against Buenos Aires,
the capital city. Overtures are being
conducted between political leaders of
some of the provinces for the forma-
ton of a League of Governors" for
the purpose of uniting the northern
agricultural districts of the country
against Buenos Aires and other coastal
districts. Some political observers see
in this movement an attempt to re-
turn to the former division of the
country politically into opposing sec.
lions while others maintain that it
merely is an economic measure having
as its purpose the protection of the
productive areas.

# KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is a sign you have besn
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; o.
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a 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 lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine 30 it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
, Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters, It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, efer-
yescent ithia-water drink.
