he went to Hallen's home, called him

promising letter occasionally came
from Hallen. Turner wrote often to

DRINK WATER WHEN
KIDNEYS HURT YOU
Take Glass of Salts if Your
Back Aches or Bladder
Troubles You.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
1t may mean you have been eating
foods which create acids, says a
well-known authority. An excess Of
such acids overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the
blood and they become sort Of
paralyzed and loggy. When your
kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them like you relieve
your bowels, removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy
spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is
bad you have rheumatic twinges.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces Of Jad
Salts; 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

been used for years to help clean

to neutralize acids in the system. so

In addition japanese nationalist

great resources in raw materials

Japan. But at the same time he

If he stays long enough really to

ton for 1925 over the previous year
was about 100000. In thirty years
the average annual increase in popu-
lation has nearly doubled. AS it
nears the million a year mark it is
evident a most serious problem faces
the empire.
Emigration to desirable foreign
countries for japanese either is linn
tied to very small numbers or cut
off entirely. The islands of the main
empire already are nearing the satu-
ration point. New babies come every
hour and the food production at
home already is insufficient.
