No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys
occasionally. says a well-known

creates acids which clog the kid

and poisons from the blood. Then

Jad Salts from any reliable phar-
macy and take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before 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 clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to ac-
tivity also to help neutralize the
acids in the System so they no long

lieving bladder disorders.

vescent Whitewater drink, which
every one can take now and then to
help keep the kidneys clean and the
blood pure, thereby often preventing
serious kidney complications.-Ad-

Constipation!
How to Keep
Bowels Regular

To DIR. w. B. Caldwell of Month
cello. ILL.,, practicing physician
for AZ years, it seemed cruel that so
many constipated men, women, chill
dren and particularly old folks, had
to be kept constantly stirred up"
and half sick by taking cathartic
pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty
oils.
While he knew that constipation
was the cause OF nearly all head
aches, biliousness, indigestion and
stomach misery, he did not believe
that sickening purge" or Ephysic"
was necessary.
In DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin he
discovered laxative which helps to
establish natural bowel Regularity

ed. DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin not
only causes gentle, easy bowel

so, 1t is probable that he decided
to step out of the affair.
Be friendly whenever you are In
the same crowd as he Is, but not
in a forceful manner. There Is no
way you can induce people to pre-
fer you to some one else, except to
exercise lovable qualities.

1t is useless to worry about things
VIC cannot alter. II it is something
that we can change. let us set about
doing it, instead of wasting time
worrying If the situation seems be-
yond our control, let us make the
best of it, or try to forget the mat
ter. Doing the best we can with the
situation at hand will unite many
knots of confusion and nine times
out of ten. We'll find later that the
matter which caused us worry has
somehow evaporated. 1t was just
a mental DOGGY.
