IF KIDNEYS
ACT BAD,
Drink WATER
Add a spoonful Jad Salts to FIRST
glass before breakfast to clear in-
testines of poisons that may pass
from intestinal tract to kidneys
and invite trouble.

If you have miserable pains in
your back, or strained feeling, don't
jump to the conclusion you have a
bad kidney ailment and start dosing
yourself with a lot of medicine. Plain
water Is the best diuretic--the best
f1usher of the kidneys you can find.
Drink a full glass one-half hour
before breakfast to which you've
added a spoonful of ordinary Jad
Salts. The water will flush the kid
neys. The Jad Salts will cleanse the
intestines of the dangerous toxins
Of Systemic Poisoning which are
probably the real cause of those
back pains.
According to recent discoveries Of
able men of science, these toxins
frequent y pass from the lower in
testines to the kidneys, causing pus
formatlons and pain-and inviting
trouble. Get them out of your
system and chances are, those pains
you've diagnosed as kidney pains"
will go like magic. You'll feel a gen.
eral easing up, less of that horribly
tired and strained feeling at your
back. You'll feel more snappy and
alert than perhaps for years.
You can get the Jad Salts at any
corner drug store, Just ask for or
binary Jad Salts Take as suggested
above. Also drink two glasses of
plain water between every two meals
and at bedtime. Then If your kid
ney pains" aren't completely gone
in six days or less, see a good doctor.
Try this simple way today. You'll
be glad that you did.-Advertise-
ment.

The forces of ''Cofinisrn" and
gang rule are counting on YOUR.
3leeping over November 4th.
WAKE UP! Remember YOU
3tarted job at the last election
which MUST be finished Novem-
Der 4th.
WAKE UP! 1t is not question of wheth-
er this man or that man shall be elected to
public Office, but also whether a political ma
chine that has besmirched the fair name Of
Indianapolis, shall not only be continued in
power but greatly strengthened
WAKE UP! The real issue before the
people is COFFINISM.
WAKE UP! The era of Cofinism began
back in 1924 when Coffin, aided and abetted
by D. c. Stephenson and his cohorts, captured
the organization and political machinery of
the Republican party.
WAKE UP! Ccfinism through alliance
with Stephenson gave the people Ed Jackson
as Governor, Ralph Updike as Congressman
from the Seventh District, John Duvall as
Mayor Of Indianapolis and group of city
councilmen later removed from office.
WAKE UP! Cofinism enabled one ward
chairman, at least fourteen precinct commit
teenen and many other political workers to
be placed on the public school pay roll as a
result of their efforts in behalf of the political
machine.
WAKE UP! Cofinism opposed the city
manager movement from the start. 1t OPP
posed the efforts of that group of nonpartisan
citizens which sought referendum on the
question of whether the city manager plan
should be adopted
WAKE UP! Even the poorhouse is fail
ure!
WAKE UP! Cofinism has offended thou
sands of Republicans who have a sincere feel
ing Of devotion to their party as an agent of
good government and in the past has caused
many of them to band themselves into groups
and factions with a view Of restoring the
party to the position it once held.
WAKE UP! COFF1N1SM depends on
YOUR inactivity at the polls. If YOU want
to destroy it completely, vote the STRAIGHT
DEMOCRATIC TICKET November 4th.
WAKE UP! If on this one day YOU will
vote YOUR one vote, YOU have done YOUR
partl
And if YOU do not WAKE UP and vote
the STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET on
November 18th, YOU will wake up later with
the same old conditions bearing down on
YOU and YOUR home and YOUR commun-

Tn brief, instead Of wasting the
time Of the unemployed, let them
use this period of idleness in pre-
pairing themselves for the future"
Babson declared "the tragedy of
wasted man power at such period

that the nation should be willing
to face it land capitalize the situa-
ton to the advantage not only Of the
individual worker, but Of the coun-
try as a whole"
Individual industrial concerns,
running on reduced schedules,
should start educational classes in
their plants, he said. These con-
Germs should pay the carfare of idle
employees to enable them to attend
such schools, in his opinion.

RETRACTION BY
C. 0. P. ASKED
Legion Post Denies Radio
Politics Charges.

Resolutions asking retraction Of
statements against the American
Legion made by Howard M. Meyer.
chairman of the Republican county
speakers bureau. in recent radio
address charging officers and the or
ganziation of the Legion with play
ing politics, has been adopted by the
executive committee of Indianapolis
post No. A, American Legion.
The resolution declares Meyer
charged the Legion was a party to
misleading of voters in belief that
Representative Louis Ludlow was
instrumental in obtaining the loca-
ton of the new veterans hospital in
Indianapolis and that Bowman e.
der, national Legion treasurer and
member of the post, had control of
funds and thus was able to force
the Legion into partisan political
activity.
Retraction is demanded of the Re-
publican county committee on
basis that such charges are false
and without any justification and
a libel upon the American Legion.
