MEAT CAUSE Of
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take q glass of Salts if your Back
hurts or Bladder bothers-Meat
forms uric acid.

If you must have your meat every day,
eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts
occasionally, says noted authority whO
tells US that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their eff
forts to expel it from the blood. They
become sluggish and weaken, then You
suffer with dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids, to
cleanse the kidneys and flush off the
bOdy's urinous waste get four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
take a tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine. 1iais
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize the acids in urine,
so it no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink.

Extra Care
A Mouth Wash For Daily Use

There are people so unfortunate as
to be unable to breathe regularly
through the nose. Air taken in
through the nose is filtered and
cleansed as it passes along the nose
passages. Air breathed through the
mouth comes fully germ-laden.
A great deal of tooth decay, gum,
throat and tonsil trouble, colds and
other illness is due directly into the
mouth.
Other germs enter the mouth in
food, and when the lips come into

which touch the lirs in the course of
a day.
There is no quicker or more pleas
ant way of protecting the mouth from
the germs that will get inA than by
rinsing the mouth several times daily
with Steroline.
Steroline is a new and highly effec-
tive mouth-wash, that destroys germs
at the instant of contact. 1t has an
agreeable taste and leaves a cool,
clean sensation in the mouth due to
the thorough cleansing it gives.
If germs have lodged in or around
the teeth or if they are multiplying
on the warm, moist folds of mem
brane lining the mouth, Steroline pre-
vents them from making trouble
Children especially should be
taught the value of daily mouth
wash and it's effect on their future
health. Send them to the dentist
frequently and support his work by
seeing that Steroline keeps the mouth
protected.
Your druggist sells and recon-
mends Steroline which is always pre-
sented in an ethical manner. Price

If You Were A Victim OF Influenza
This Article VIII Be of In
teres tIo You

Did the disease leave you with a
cough, sore throat, cold in head, weak,
rundown, poor appetite?
Is it hard for you TO feel like your
old self again? Get up in the morn
irgs languid-draggy-with no ambi-
ton to go about the duties of the
day?
If you were told by your best
friend that if you spent one dollar
you could be "made over" or it would
not cost you a cent wouldn't you run
your hand in your pocket gladly for
the "iron man.? Of course you
would.
Well-here's our proposition: Take
one bottle of PLANK'S BLOOD
MEDICINE according to directions
and if you do not benefit by the one
bottle sufficiently to take the other
five (Which is the full course) then
you may have your dollar back with
out question.
Thousands of bottles have been
sold on this proposition and we have
our first man to ask for his money
back.
Flu" or colds leave your system
congested and when your organs are
in a congested state they cannot per-
form the duties of discharging the
waste matter from the system.
PLANK'S BLOOD MEDICINE thor.
oughly cleanses and regulates the
Liver, Stomach, Bowels and Kidneys
and it is a certainty if these organs
are in good working order-YOU
CAN'T BE SICK!
PLANK'S BLOOD MEDICINE is
