BIG EATERS GET

Take glass of Salts before breakfast
If your Back hurts or Bladder

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filed with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or gou are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts:
take q 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
hthia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine so It
no longer is a source OF irritation, thus
ending bladder disorders.

COLLEGE NINE LOSES
GAME TO MT. ST. CHARLES

The Bobcat squad lost its first
game of the season to Mount st.
Charles, going down to a score of IL
to A in the game played in Helena
on Wednesday. Lack of good base
ball throughout the game and inabil-
ity to connect with the ball as often
as did the st. Charles players were
the factory contributing to our loss,
The team showed less real playing
from the opening Of the game than
did the opponents, though containing
material that is probably much more
promising than the Helena lineup
Consistent practice, with the advent
of good weather will make a 100 pei
cent Improvement before the next
games. Fairly good fielding and base
work checked the Saints from scor.
ing on over half of the % hits they
captured.
The st. Charles team showed evi
dence of good working-out and ex
hibited marked ability in connecting
with the ball. One of their men

from the Industrial ranks. and urged
removal OF the excess profits. luxury.

certified public accountant, was the
champion OF the excess profits tax. and
his stand proved a surprise to committee
nembers. several Of whom said they had
felt thc sentiment throughout the coun-
try was practically q unit for repeal OF
that section Of the laws. Mr.. Harris also
urged exemption Of corporation dtvf-
dends from personal income surtaxes.
Frank f. Seidman OF Grand Rapids
suggested a tax on undistributed earn
ings OF corpora tons to make good losses
caused by repeal Of the profits taxes.
He proposed taxes similar to the 8rnd-
ua.ed rates on personal incomes as tho
proper method OF dealing with undis-
tributed earnings.
Attempts of officials during the war
to difrerentiate between essential and
non essential Industries has left bad
spots in the nations commercial life. Mr..
Graham said.

Mr.. Hancc stressed the need OF the
country for an equilibrium between sup
