IF BACK HURTS
BEGIN ON SALTS
Flush Your Kidneys Occa-
sionally by Drinking
Quarts of Good Water

No man or woman can make a
mistake by flushing the kidneys &C.

thority. Too much rich food creates
acids which clog the kidney pores
so that they sluggiShly filter or
strain only part of the waste and
poisonS from the blood. Then you
get sick. rheumatism, headaches,
liver trouble, nervousness, constipa-
ton, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder
disorders often come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts
begin to drink soft water in quanti-
ties; also get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any reliable phar-
macy and take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys 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 clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to &C
tivity, also to help neutralize the
acids in the system so they no
longer cause irritation, thus often
relieving bladder disorders.

not injure; makes delightful

which everyone can take now and

and the blood pure. thereby often

REVENUE POST IS
AWARDED TO NEAL

Edward Everett Neal, announced
as the successful compromise OF
Hoosier senators for the post of
collector of internal revenue here,
today returns to a position in the
political spotlight which he has not
held since he assumed the role CT
Ed Jackson'S champion in 1928.
Neal, then head Of the Indiana
Republican Editorial Association,
wrote long eulogies of Jackson, then
Governor, in his (Neal0 MOBILES
vile paper.
Jackson at the time was being
tried for political corruption and
bribery and escaped sentence By
pleading the statute of limitations.
Neal was a fellow-huntsman OF
Jackson and also wrote a biography
of the Governor.
His appointment to the revenue
post was looked upon today as a VIC
tory for the Robinson-J Jackson of-

Senator Arthur r. Robinson re-
fused to accept Miss Dorothy Cum
ningham, Republican national COM
mitteewoman for Indiana, for the
position. She was brought forth
as candidate by Senator James Eli
Watson and Endorsed by Governor
Harry G. Leslie and Claudius Hus-
ton, Republican national chairman.
The Robinson refusal became a
matter of state discussion and even
was said to have been taken up
with President Hoover.
Neal got Watson's o. <. Monday

Eliza Rogers, Republican state

in 1t a victory for Robinson because
Miss Dorothy Cunningham, Indian

not get the appointment.

Cooper and RoWbottom are at
dagger points. The breach is a
result of differences over patronage
some time ago and was Widened by
Cooper's announcement he will seek
