If Back Hurts
Begin on Salts
Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally
by Drinking Quarts Of Good
Water

No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys
occasionally, says well-known au-
thority. Too much rich food creates
acids which clog the kidney pores
so that they sluggishly filter or
strain only part of the waste and
poisons from the blood. Then you
get sick. Rheumatism, headaches,
liver trouble, nervousness, consti-
patton, dizziness, sleeplessness,
bladder disorders often come from
sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts,
or if the urine is cloudy, offensive,
full of sediment, irregular Of pass
age, or attended by a sensation of
scalding, begin to drink soft wat
er in quantities; also get about
four ounces of Jad Salts from any
reliable pharmacy and take table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your
kidneys may then act fine.
This famous salt sis made from
the acid Of grapes and lemon juice
combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to help flush clog
ged kidneys and stimulate them to
activity, also to help neutralize the
acids in the system SO they no
longer cause irritation, thus often
relieving bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
QQt injure; makes "a delightful eff
ferSescent lithia-water drink, which
everyone can take now and then to
help keep the kidneys clean and
the blood pure, thereby often pre-
venting serious kidney eomplica-
tions. BY all means have your ply
sician examine your kidneys at

AN EAR TO THE GROUND

None but politicians are pictured as
stopped over, their cars so placed as
TO catch the rumble of what is COM
ing in the matter OF public opinion
or within But this attitude attrib-
uted to the politician might we'll be
assumed By others who would build
strongly for the future.
Recently. and at the moment. there
have been and are serious discussions
as to the necessity for the showing Of
more consideration by institutions
that cater 10 and serve the public.
quite probably when the old stage
coach was the only method or trans
portation. the proprietors Of them

roads would take their place every

the prospect. They did not bend their

But the railroad did come. and now

always: that nothing can ever replace
it and that We can not get along with

the railroad toots its whistle and

Gradually people began 10 resent
this attitude. but tha railroad footed

states. Yet the eyes of the roads were

states. Yet the eyes of the roads were
not opened.
For years the roads have insolent-
~ blocked highways in busy cities
by switching their ears across them.
The roads feel secure in their posi-
ton as most necessary for the carry
ing on of business. They have done
about as they pleased.
But at this moment, right in New
Britain, not only is there a strong
movement to have the railroads leave
the Main street crossing clear but
there is another effort to have other
crossings made more passable. Those
crossings, such as that over Whiting
street. should not be made part of
a roads freight yard or anything like
it. The railroad should not be as
slow in ceasing to toot its whistle
TO crack his whip. The roads. to pro-
tect themselves against the day when
ira nsportation movements will be de-
mandod and the demand met, should
have their ears to the ground and
their eyes on the horizon to see what
