bad you have rheumatic twinges.
To help neutralize these irritat-
ing acids and flush off the body'S
waste, begin drinking water. Also
get about four ounces Of Jad

THE NEW PATHFINDER TIRES
Improvement in Design and COnstruc-

finder as the best tire for the money

Of Ennis & Deakyne, Goodyear service
station dealers. "These improvements
he said, "have been made in both high

the tire user greater value than ever
before in a tire of this type. An in
spection of the new Pathfinder shows
that the tread has been re-designed to
give greater traction and resistance
to skidding on wet, slippery pave
ments. The tread has been made long
er wearing with the use of tougher
compounds. Then, too, the carcass of
the tire is stronger. The same kind
