Salts Fine for
Aching Kidneys
When Back Hurts Flush Your
Kidneys as You Clean

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, sometimes get slug
gish and clogged and need a flushing

severe headaches, rheumatic twinges,
torpid liver, acid stomach, sleepless-
ness and all sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean and the moment you
feel an ache or pain In the kidney
region begin drinking lots of water.
Also get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful In glass of wa
ter before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts Is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and Is intended to
flash clogged kidneys and help stimu-
late them to activity. 1t also helps
neutralize the acids in the urine SO
they no longer irritate, thus helping
to relieve bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive; makes 4
delightful effervescent lithla water
drink which everybody should take
now and then to help keep their kid
neys clean.
A well-known local druggist says he

DOOM is SEEN
OF BATTLESHIp
Big Craft to Give Way to
Speedy Vessels.

Washington.-Th battleship Is like
ly to be strapped or relegated to
subordinate position when the wash

convenes in 1881, or at the latest
when the Washington treaties expire
in 1886.
The new ten 10,000-ton cruisers
President Coolidge wishes to have
congress authorize next winter will
be built with new conception of the
navy in mind which will call for
greater surface speed and wider use
of the airplane than was possible
when even the latest battleships were
built.
The airplane carriers Lexington and
Saratoga, which the United States has
been building since 1922, have caused
complete revision of the ideas of
capital ships of the future. The de-
tails of these ships are still secret,
but the Navy department is greatly
pleased with the essels as engines
Of war. They have displacement of
$4,000 tons and speed, 1t is said,
greater than $3.50 knots an hour.
Each will carry. it is said, as many as
100 airplanes.
The 1O,O00-ton cruisers also have
speed of 80 knots an hour and the
7,5O0-ton cruisers, of which we have
ten aloat, have speed of $3.50 knots
an hour.
Into fleet of which these fast
ships with minimum of 30 knots
speed are an important part, the
dreadnought battleship with speed
of 81 knots fits just about as well as
the old monitors, which survived till
after the Spanish war with their
speed of eight Or ten knots. fit into
the more modern battleship fleets of
fifteen or twenty years ago.
No fleet can move any faster than
it's slowest member, so the effect OF
the battleship would be to slow down
the new powerful and speedy cruisers
and arplane carriers. At least that
is the way naval thought Is now tend
ing.
The ten new 10000-ton cruisers.
which President Coolidge will ask
congress to authorize, will bring the
American cruiser strength up to about
the minimum this country proposed at
the Geneva conference.
Wrong Impressions.
Therefore, their authorization Is
not to be regarded as the beginning
of naval race with Great Britain
or as imparing the prospect of cruis-
er limitation in negotiations that may
follow the failure at Geneva.
With that authorization the total
of cruisers built, building and author
lied. will not be above the lowest
point at which an agreement is pos
