back or sick headache, dizziness, your
stomach sOurs, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine gets
cloudy, full of sediment, the channels
often get sore and irritated, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
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 tablespoon

interest and claims the approval
of the most critical.
Here's a picture that must be
seen to be appreciated. The re-
viewer can only delve into the
main points of the plot, praise
the cast and credit the producers.
Such marvels of stagecraft as the
storm at sea, the branding of
the convicts and the vivid battle
for the honor of a woman can
only be depicted through the
medium of the screen, and any
attempt at describing them here
would be painting the lilies.
The story concerns the adven.
lures of Arson Campbell, a
preacher and a gentleman. De-
Tending a woman, cursed by the
narrow gossip of small minds and
cheap souls, he brings down the
censure of other Christians-not
quite so good-loses his sweet
heart and embarks upon a sea
voyage that sweeps him along
on the breast of adventure to a
most surprising climax.
