TAKE SALTS To
FLUS4 KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat if You Feel Back
achy or Have Bladder Trouble.

Too much meat may form uric acid,
which excites and overworks the kid
neys in their efforts to filter it from
the sysem. Big meat eaters can flush
the kidneys occasionally to relieve them
like they relieve the bowels, removing
all the acids, waste and poison, else
they may feel dull misery in the kid
ney region, sharp pains in the back or
sick headache, dizziness, the stomach
-sours, tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad they have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment the channels often get irri-
tated, obliging one to get up two or
three times during the night
To help neutralize these irritating
acids and flush off the body's urinous
waste. get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your
kidneys may then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lith:a and
has been used for generations to help
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. lad Salts

men take now and then to help pre-
vent serious kidney and bladder dis

PLAN COOPERATIVE
BUILDING OF ROADS

ASHEVILLE, N. C.-The state of

view OF connecting the highway sys-
TENS OF the two states, according to
Governor Austin Peay of the former

ed that as result of conferences
SOM thing definite will be worked out
towards a general cooperative plan OF
linking up the highways of all three
states
Governor Peay also said that Ten
nessee has a prospective road build
ing program ipeview, and it is with
the further pA~p1se of arriving at
some idea of just how large to make
1t and what the cost should be, that
he and his officials came to study the
North Carolina highway system.
A proposition was before the Ten
nessSe legislature this year provid-
ing for a $75,000000 bond issue for
additions to the highway system of
that state, but it did not have the
sanction of the governor and failed
of passage.
A similar proposition may come be-
fore the 1925 session, according to
Governor Peay.
