SOUR STOMACH is
CAUSED BY Acids
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry,
Avoid Exposure, Eat
No Sweets.

Stay off the damp ground, avoid
exposure, keep feet dry, eat no
sweets of any kind for while, drink
lots of water and above all take a
spoonful of Jad Salts occasionally to
help keep down uric and toxic acids.
rheumatism is caused by poison
toxins, called acids, which are gene
rated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. 1t is the function of the
kidneys to filter this acid from the
blood and cast 1t out in the urine.
The pores of the. skin are also a
means Of freeing the blood Of this
impurity. In damp and chilly, cold
weather the skin pores are closed,
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work; they become weak and slug
gish and fail to eliminate this
poison. which keeps accommodating
and circulating through the system,
eventually settling in the joints and
muscles, causing stiffness, soreness
and pain, called rheumatism.

acidity, remove body waste also to
stimulate the kidneys, thus helping
to rid the blood of these rheumatic
poisons.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid Of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject
to rheumatism.--Ad

HARVARD CONSIDERING
 ADMISSION REGULATIONS
Plans to Admit Students Only On Basis of Comprehensive Exam
 nation Discussed.

Cambridge, Mass. Oct, Is P}-A plan to admit college students only on a basis of comprehensive exami- nation in four fundamental subjects plus a full consideration of school records, intelligence tests and per sonal testimonials, was advocated to- day by the Association of University Professors.
 In a report on the selection and retention of undergraduates 1t urged in addition that each college allow in its junior class specified smaller number Of students than it admits to its freshman class. Selection would be made on competitive basis and those who failed would be honorably dismissed with a cer- tifcate.
 The report represents, it was said, an attack upon the problem of "who should go to college" a prob lem which has attracted an increas- ing amount of attention from col lege heads in the past few years. It was signed by Professors Harold H. Bender of Princeton. Anna A. Cut Ter of Smith, Owe c, Hazlett of Illi- nois, and Robert K. Root Of Prince ton. A

LLOYD GEORGE MAY
 BE LIBERAL HEAD
Is Expected to Succeed Earl of
 Oxford Who Resigned

London. Oct, Is H-The earl of Oxford and Asquith has definitely retired from the leadership of the liberal party and David Lloyd George. the party's leader in parlia- nlent, probably will be chosen for the post.
 In his letter of resignation Lord Oxford asserts indirectly that his giving up of the leadership was due to the political hostility between himself and Lloyd George to adopt the policy of Lord Oxford and other high members of the party in char acterizipg the general strike in June as illegal.
 This action of Lloyd George, who contended that the government should have settled the labor dispute in an amicable way and thus pre- vented the strike, caused Lord Ox- ford to write a letter virtually read ing Lloyd George out Of the liberal party. This brought about heated controversy between the Lloyd George and Oxford wings of the liberal party. Lloyd George, how ever. refused to be shelved. and later the parliamentary liberal party supported his leadership in the chamber by a vote of 20 to 12.
 In his resignation Lord Oxford said he was firmly convinced of the correctness of his stand toward the general strike but that he could not and would not participate In any in- ternal political controversies. He added that party unity could not prevail under a system of rival au- thorities with separate organizations and separate funds.
 Lord Oxford said that although he had regained his health he felt that he could not bring himself to believe that the responsibilities of leader ship should be carried by one who was not reasonably assured that he could stand the strain.
 The present Is not the first con troversy between Lord Oxford and MT. Lloyd George. They differed on many questions of policy. This cul- minated In 1916 when Lord Oxford, who was then Herbert Henry As quith, was forced out of the pre- miership and was succeeded by MT. Lloyd George.
 At the conclusion of the World War the two political leaders vir- tually smoothed over their difficult ties and worked together within the liberal party, but the final definite break, which has ended In the resig nation of Lord Oxford, came when Lord Oxford endeavored to read Mr. Lloyd George out of the party.
 In addition to Mir. Lloyd George there are other aspirants for lead ership of the party. notable among them Sir John Simon, former home secretary, who in recent months has been one of the adverse critics of MT. Lloyd George.
