WASH YOUR KIDNEYS
BY DRINKING WATER
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers, Also Take Some
Salts

Flush your kidneys by drinking a
quart of water each day, also take
salts occasionally, says noted
authority, who tells us that too
much rich food forms acids which
almost paralyze the kidneys in their
efforts to expel it from the blood.
They become sluggish and weaken;
then you may suffer with a duh
misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache,
dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is
bad you have rheumatic twinges
To help neutralize these irritating
acids, to help cleanse the kidneys
and flush off the body's urinous
waste. get four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy here; take a
tablespoonful in glass Of water be-
fore breakfast for a few days, and
your kidneys may then act fine, This
famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
years to help flush and stimulate
sluggish Kidneys; also to neutralize
the acids in the system so they no
longer irritate, thus often relieving
bladder weakness. d.
Jad Salts is inexpensive: cannot
injure and makes delightful

Vehement DeI,ials

Members Of the royal party aboard
the train which was to take Marie
and her children into Canada today
were vehement in denying that
Ferdinand had summoned the Queen
to return, ut least they said no such
message had been received.
A special correspondent on the
continent cabled his paper that he
had no knowledge of such a com
munique. but inclined to think that
some such thing is to be expected. -
London newspapers have chided
Her Majesty considerable regarding
the commercial aspects OF her Jour.
ney. King George. who is Marie's
cousin, and Queen Mary, an in.law
and therefore perhaps more formid.
able, have been reported as dis
pleased with the whole affair.
Scant Encouragement Here
There was much opposition to
Marie's journey in Bucharest, and
there was but scant announcement
in Washington.
Meantime, Marie was travelling
westward. perhaps with those royal
trousies safely packed away in one
of the fifty-odd pieces of royal bag

bonds be issued to erect elementary

ways believed elementary schools
should be built with money procured

clared.
Near Limit
Our bonded indebtedness is now
$10,S40 900. within $2,200,000 of the
constitutional limit. We now pro-
pose to build the new Shortridge
with a $1,O50O0O bond issue. To
build the elementary schools on our
program from bond issues would
bring the total within a close figure
Of our limit, which would be bad ad-
