Take Salts to
Flush Kidneys
Eat less meat if you feel Back
achy or, have Bladder
trouble.

loo much meat may form uric acid,
which excites and overworkes the kid
neys in their efforts to filter it from
the system. 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
tw1nges. 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 a glass of water before
breakfast for a 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 lithia, and
has been used for generations to help
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts
is Inexpensive, harmless and makes a
delightful efferVescent lithia water
drink which millions of men and women
take now and then to help prevent SER
ious kidney and bladder disorders.

ALLAN IA WOMAN AND
BIG STILL CAPTURED
In Center Of City-Woman
Refuses To Give Name To
Authorities

ATLANTA, Jan. 13.-One of the
largest stills captured in this section
of the country was raided by city
plain clothes officers Friday evening
at the corner Of West Peachtree and
Linden streets.
The still, which was of 100-gallon
capacity, was in full operation at the
time of the raid. Fifty gallons of
beer and sour mash ready to run"
also was seized by the raiding Off
GERS.
The officers placed under arrest a
woman, who was the sole occupant
of the house at the time of the raid.
She refused to give the raiding party
any information concerning those can
nected with the operations of the
still and also declined to furnish the
police her name.
The house in which the still was
found is located at 207 West Peach
tree street. The still was of such
proportion as to occupy the entire
second floor of the house, it is said.
The capture was the result of sew
eral days work by members of the
plain clothes squad. They carefully
followed many "tips" they had re-
ceived, working so cautiously as to
get possession of the signal taps nee
essary to gain admission to the place.

Chief Justice Olson, of Chicago,
Wants Law To Segregate
Criminals in Sterile Colonies

CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-America's
unfit will be gathered in communities
that ever will be childless, if the pro-
posal of Chief Justice Harry Olson
Of the Chicago municipal court is
adopted
For under a federal law proposed
by Olson, the unft-habitual crini-
mails, drug addicts, the hopelessly dis
eased and other social interiors
will be surgically rendered incap-
able of begetting their kind.
Olson will seek to have congress
pass legislation which will make uni
form the sterilization efforts already
undertaken by II states.
In his drive for such legislation
Olson will be aided by DR.. W. ].
Hickson, head of the Chicago Munich
pal Psycopathic Laboratory, and by
the latters wife, Marie K. Hickson,
herself a psycopathic expert.
"Such law" says Olson, sis nee
essary if we would save this country
and the world from hereditary faint
and social deterioration.
Rome and the other great civil
cations of the ancient world fell be-
cause of contamination of the ma
tional life stream by unfit progeni-
tors. America, too, is threatened
with destruction when it lets crimi-
mails and other vicious social enemies
pollute its future generations.
"We must weed out the potential
parenthood of those who form our
habitual criminals and others 'ad-
judged able to transmit physical and
mental handicars to their offspring"
The state has as much right TO
render man or woman incapable
of parenthood as to execute a crimi-
nal or deprive him of liberty, Olson
maintains.
"For years America, has been the
dumping ground for the unfit of
many lands. These are reproducing
their like" he adds.
at will shortly become a survival
fight, and the fttest will win. Either
the physically and mentally sound
will go down to defeat unless ster-
ilization laws are invoked or the
offspring of the misfits will under
mine our social order and plunge the
nation into decadence."
Judge Olson is first in favor Of

segregation communities for the
type of people meriting sterilization
and then gradually educating the
public to the need of the more
drastic penalty-application of the
eugenics law.
His remarks follow close on the
heels of a book by Harry Hamilton
Laughlin of the Eugenics Record
Office, Carnegie Institute, and Gu
genics associate of the Chicago
Psycopathic Laboratory, in which a
nationwide survey is made of eu-
genicical sterilization attempts and
needs.
Both Judge Olson and his assist
ants, DR.. Hickson and DR.. Laughlin,
propose model federal law which
would permit jury trial by the per-
son judged needy of sterilization and
would also allow him every due
process of appeal and opportunity to
confront his accusers with contradic-
tory evidence.
Likewise it refrains from antagO-
nizing constitutional principles
which prohibit cruel and unusual
punishments.
All persons coming under the
socially inadequate classes" as pau
pers, ne'er-do-wells, cripples, the
blind and sufferers from chronic and
infectious diseases, together with
confirmed criminals, Predetermined,
inebriates and drug addicts, would
be included under the bill.
Motherhood cannot be blessing
to any woman if she knew before
hand that her baby was doomed as
social inferior because of heredi-
tary taint,' Mrs. Hickson said. eff
she is unfit for motherhood any wo-
man should be glad to forcibly fore
go it, and be compelled to-"
