KEEP URIC ACID
out OF JOINTS
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Eat
Less Meat and Take Salts

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure. states a well-known author
ity. We are advised to dress warm
iy; keep the feet dry; avoid expo
sure; eat less meat. but drink plenty
of good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which Is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also means Of freeing the blood of
this impurity. In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and slug
gish and fail to eliminate the uric
acid which keeps accommodating and
circulating through the system, even
tually settling in the joints and mus
cles causing stiffness, soreness and
pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a table,
spoonful in a glass of water and drink
before breakfast each morning for a
week. This is said to elimipate uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys to
normal action, thus Kidding the blood
of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon junee, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism Adv

PICKETING THE PRESIDENT

In response to President Harding's
endeavor to make the White House
accessible--the police guards have
been withdrawn and visitors have
thronged the grounds during these
first few days of the administration
the socialists announce that they will
picket the grounds in an endeavor to
make it so disagreeable for the Presi-
dent that he will pardon political Of
tenders.
Prominent in this list of offenders
is Gene Debs who gave the aid and
comfort of his tongue to the enemies
of his country and the bitterness and
reviling of it for the laws and the
courts of his land, who is not sorry
for what he said and did, is frank to
say he would do the same again and
is said to be waxing fat in confine-
ment.
When the country was not at war
it was the custom to give Genes
vicious tongue all the room it could
use, but when our boys were being
taken for cannon fodder his attitude
became an intolerable one and he
was served as he deserved to be-
But, after all, Debs is only an ex-
cuse; the socialists acting ostensibly
in his behalf are really struggling for
notoriety, for columns of space in the
daily press illustrated by their por-
traits. If they get under foot and
clutter up the scenery they should be
arrested same as ordinary disturb
ers of the peace, locked up: .Gto & con~
template prison beds and board, and
if possible they should be taught to
learn what real honest work looks
like and feels like. Ill:

a AHoRRIeLE PHAsES

1.-THE most horrible phase of life un-
der Bolshevik rule" says Sir Paul
Dilkes out of his varied experiences
in Russia, "is the absence of all lib
erty of thought, word or deed. Not
only can no newspaper appear except
the Bolshevik journals, but 1t is dam
gerous even in the street or on q
train to express an opinion contrary
to Bolshevik principles, for one new
er knows when a word will be over
heard by some eavesdropping Bolshe-
vik agent, which will land the Offend
er in prison and perhaps end in his
facing firing squad. In many ways
the Russian terror far exceeds in its
horrors the most sanguinary period
of the French revolution. The Rus
slams submit to this tyranny because
tIty have never known anything bet
ter, centuries of oppression having
prevented the development of any I'M
dividualistic tendencies"
This view is borne out by
what other trustworthy investigators
have learned. Such evidence should
be considered in the light of what is
possible under our form of govern
ment which the Bolshevists would de-
stroy. Here we have something to
cherish and protect, a cause worth
fighting for to the last breath.
We do not want to be Germanizd
with efficiency that moulds an indf-
vidual into the mass; that makes him
a ward of a .Prussianized central
government; that provides hir, with
pensions and promotions--and does
his thinking. Neither do we want to
be bolshevized and be allowed neither
to think nor to speak for ourselves
or our cause.
And it must not be. lost to sight
that the only way we may become SO
is by selling our inestimable birth
right for a mess of pottage; by giving
up our individuality and responsible
ties for a specious offer of peace and
ease. The athlete must have his
physical exercise if he would remain
an athlete; the individual must have
his struggles if he would remain
strong; must retain at all cost his
right to lsis opinions and the liberty
of expressing them under proper con-
ditions.
