IF BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat, also take glass OF
Salts before eating
breakfast.

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys
they become overworked; get sluggish
ache, and feel like humps of lead, The
urine becomse cloudy; the bladder is
irritated, and you may be obliged to
seek relief two or three times during
the night. When the kidneys clog you
must help them flush off the body's
urinous waste or you'll be a real sick
person shortly. At first you feel dull
misery in the kidney region, you suf-
fer, from backache, sick headache, dizzi-
and you feel rheumatic twinges when
the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take tablespoon
full 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 lem
on juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to clean
clogged kidneys and stimulate them to
normal activity, also to neutralize the
acids in urine, so it no longer is a
source of irritation, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active Druggists
here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kidney
trouble while it is only trouble Adv,

LONDON SHORT 100000 HOUSES
And a Million Houses Are Needed in
Whole Kingdom.

London, Jan. l8.-It is estimated that
London is short of 100000 houses and
Premier LLOYD George, speaking in the
House of Commons, has placed the to-
tai house shortage for the whole of the
United Kingdom at roughly 100000

don quickly attracts a crowd.
Housing is a department of the min
istry of health and, by legislation act,
local authorities are required to sub.
NIT housing schemes. Thousands of
schemes have been submitted, but prog
ress has been very slow
Perhaps the chief reason for this has
been the economic factor. Houses which
cost three or four times as much to
build as before the war, cannot obvi-
ously let or sell at pre-war figures.
Nevertheless, according TO govern
ment statistics some 10000 new houses
were started in 1920 and the number
contracted for has risen during the year
from l0,40s to l33,30l.
One striking feature Of the effort TO
provide houses is housing scheme con
Quoted by the Office of works, which
was empowered to spend 100000
pounds spread over Is months It's op.
erations started in Camberwell, south
London borough. An arrangement was
made by which the office of works sup
piled the plans, material and superyis
ion, while the local federation of trades
unions supplied the labor and the bor
ough council assumed responsibility for
the finances. The plan worked smooth
~ and houses were built for $50 pounds
apiece, saving of at least 200 pounds,
making total saving to taxpayers Of
1901 pounds. This scheme may be-
come the embryo of state building de
partment.
The financial difficulties connected
with the housing problem have been re-

In the north of England, concrete
houses have become popular. as ma

merly had the reputation of being
the most dyspeptic nation on earth.
There has been great change in
this condition. Many million fam
lilies in America have abandoned
old-fashioned cooking methods.
They are now using vegetable oil
for all frying, sauteing and baking.
and for shortening biscuits, pie
crusts, and other delicious foods.
And it is interesting to know that
Mazda has the greatest sale of any
brand of vegetable oil.

Modern Cooking Methods

Women of refinement everywhere
appreciate the fact that there isn't
any smoke or odor of cooking with
Mazda. The reason is Mazda can
be heated SO hot before it begins TO
burn-not like animal fats and or

readily than do the fats generally

Mazda is an American product,

to pay the heavy ocean freight rates

SEATTLE, Aug. 2. - The City Council, in a memorial to Secretary of State Charles E. Hughes, urges that the disarmament conference be held here. Besides referring to the disarmament discussion of the pro- posed conference, the memorial also relates to the Japanese immigration problem.
 In reference to Japanese immigra- tion the memorial says:
 We hope that the conference will not end until definite and satis- factory settlement has been reached on the question of Japanese immi- grafton.
 More than one of every nine births in 1920 here were Japanese.
 This city is contiguous to a farming district where from one half to three fourths of the American population has been displaced by the Japanese.
 The situation contains possi- bility of serious friction.
