WHEN KIDNEYS HURT
DRINK MORE WATER
If Your Back Aches or Bladder
Bothers, Take a Little
Salts

The American men and women
must guard constantly against kid
ney trouble because we often eat
too much rich food. Our blood is
filled with acids which the kidneys
strive to filter out; they weaken
from overwork, become sluggish, the
eliminative tissues clog and the re-
suit Is kidney trouble, bladder weak
ness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys fC~l like Jumps
of lead; your back hurts; if you suf-
fer with sick headache, or dizzy,
nervous spells, acid stomach, or if
you have rheumatism when the
weather is bad, begin drinking lots
OF good soft water and 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 kidney s.
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 clogged kidneys, to neu-
tralize the acids in the system so
they no longer are a source of irri-
tation, thus often relieving bladder
disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot
injure, makes a delightful effereves-
cent Whitewater drink and belongs
in every home, because nobody can
make a mistake by having a good
kidney flushing any time.--Adver-

Better Distribution Plan
1t is contended that the proposed
plan would make for more equit-
able method of the distribution of
license and tax fees paid.
Representative Gerard was re-
luctant to outline his plans, pending
the drafting Of the bill and getting
an expression of public sentiment.
Under the plan the license fee on
all types of pleasure cars. regardless
of horsepower or weight, would be
81.
Truck license would run from s:
to IS for the heavier type Of truck
Look for Efficiency
Lessening of fees from license tags
would be offset, it is commended, by
the increased gas tax.
An additional saving is outlined
by citing the reduced cost of collect
ing the gasoline tax as compared
with the cost of license distribu-
ton.
Application forms would be revised
and the notary fee, which is esti-
mated to cost Indiana auto own
ers 100000 annually, eliminated.
Distribution of the funds collected
isalso being considered. It is hoped
that a plan can be worked out by
which an equitable distribution of
the funds can be. made as between
the State highway commission and
the counties.
