SALTS # KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to flush Kidneys and neutral
iSe Irritating acids-Splendid
for system.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and infame,
causing a burning, scalding sensation, or
setting up an irritation at the neck of
the bladder, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
The sufferer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding il.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and some
times very painful, this is really one Of
the most simple ailments to overcome.
Get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from your pharmacist and take table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast, continue this for two or three
days. This will neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer is source of
irritation to the bladder and urinary Or
gains which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splen-
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, effervescent
Whitewater drink, which quickly relieves
bladder trouble

CRISIS OVER IN
BUSINESS WORLD
Danger of a Credit Collapse Has Pass
ed. Some Changes Yet to Come,
Is Opinion of High Officials.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The worst
is over. A turn for the better in the
business situation of the country has
come. Government officials generally
are glad to be able to send Christ
mas message to the American people
that all danger of collapse in the
credit system has passed, and that
from now on a steady return to nor
NAL conditions may be expected.
Every bit of evidence gathered here
confirms the view of officials that with
the exception of individual cases where
bad management or imprudent fnanc-
ing has caused some concerns to hang
by an eyelash the entire business out
look is favorable.
The process of readjuStment is not
over. Perhaps some of the most pain
full changes will come when the price
of labor is gradually brought down,
but in the business word itself the bot
tom has been reached and the future
is by no means as dark as it was a
month ago. Letters received from
bank officials in Various parts of the
country indicate that the turn came
in the last six or seven days, and that
the improvement is substantial and

RETRACTS STATEMENT
ABOUT ORANGE-C
LITERARY DIGEST CORRECTS
EDITORIAL INADVERTANCE
MADE IN OCT. BOTH ISSUE.

An editorial injustice to the we'll
known drink, Orange Crush, inadver-
tentlv made by The Literary Digest in
its October 3Oth number, has been full
w retracted by the publishers in an
article appearing December 4th.
The error was made in a short edi-
torial preface to the reprint OF an ar
ticle from the u S. public health re-
ports on the subject of Fake Orange
Drinks" Although this article was not
directed against Orange-Crush, which
derives all its flavor from the oil, juice
and acid of actual oranges, yet the ed
itorial preface mistakenly included the
drink bv name in the following Ian
guage:
TOrangeade' and orange crush that
never came nearer to an orange than
the tanks of synthetic chemical lab
oratory are no longer to be served I'M
der those names with Uncle Sans
permission.
This statement was fully corrected
in The Literary Digest for December
4th in an editorial entitled Fruit
Juices in Fruit Drinks" The retrac-
ton appears on page 81 in the follow
ing language:
"A reference was made in our article
OF October 3Oth to orange crush as
made in a synthetic laboratory, and
we further said that it was no longer
to be served under this name with the
governments permission. This state
ment we wish to correct. Wards
Orange Crush, which is the only or
ange drink marketed under the trade
name crush is, as per their label,
composed OF orange oil, citric acid, or

eminent report was quoted in these
columns, it is only right to give our
readers this additional word of ex-

today to urge congress to wipe out
this great evil.
"Organized speculation is a polite
name for gambling. Gambling Is
merely one form of stealing; there
fore, when we get down to brass tacks
speculation is just plain every day
stealing.
Stealing is the acquiring of your
neighbours property without giving
any return either in money, property
or service. Isn't that precisely what
speculation attempts to do, and sue
ceeds in doing so on scale which
makes the professional gamblers and
thieves look like pikers?
"The world has long suffered from
the predatory parasites who call them
selves spectators, but it remained for
the nineteenth century to permit them
to organize themselves into powerful
exchanges, so-called and properly so,
for they most successfully exchange
their paper contracts for the hard earn
ed money of the general public"
