II SPOONFUL OF
SALTS RELIEVES
ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat, which
clogs Kidneys, says noted I
authority.
If back hurts or Bladder bothers,
stop all meat for
a while.
When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they
become sort of paralyzed and loggy.
"When your kidneys get sluggish and
flog you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels: removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
J|tokache, sick headache, dizzy spells:
.<|>ur stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels
often get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or get from your phar
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a 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 llthla, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids in the urine so it no longer
irritates, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. Tt is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes a delightful,
effervescent lithla water drink. —Ad

CLOSE WALL GAP
INSIDE OF WEEK
Less Than Dozen Flights of
"Steps" Yet to Be Placed
Along River Front
WET WEATHER'S DELAY
Three Miles of Great Walk on
City's Banks Build
ing Dam
The gap in the river wall at Market
street, the only open section with the
exception of "Hardscrabble" > ,tn the
three-mile length of the water front
improvement, will be closed with steps
within another week unless wet
weather or other untoward conditions
should interfere. This, at least, Is the
expectation of the engineers and con
tractors. who are busy putting in the
of the concrete stringers to-day.
Less than a dozen sections of steps
remain to be p'4t into place and the
material will be "set" in forms, it is
hoped, before tlie end of this week.
The stretch of 14-foot-wide grano
lithic walk which will be the finishing
touch will be put down, very likely,
early next week. Wet weather and
the sudden changes in the river's
height from time to time have delayed
the operations to some extent during
the last week or ten days and the job
has not progressed as rapidly as had
been expected.
While the construction work on the
wall gap is being pushed ahead the
remainder of the slabs of concrete
which will finish off the river dam at
Dock street are being lifted into place.
Probably sixty of the big blocks—cov
ering approximately 400 feet—must
be swung into position on the top tier
of the dam. This operation, the last
of the city's present program of mu
nicipal improvements, will be finished,
too, before another week has passed.

Dr. Shaw Says Suffrage
Must Be Granted Before
U. S. Is Real Republic
Practically every phase of the equal
suffrage stand was discussed by Dr.
Anna Howard Shaw, president of the
National Women's Suffrage Associa
tion before a large in Tech
nical High School auditorium last
night, with the keen originality which
has made her the peer of her sex as a
speaker. Bright witticisms were fre
quently interspersed throughout her
talk.
"The women know what they want,"
said Dr. Shaw, "and they are not
afraid to say so. We are asking for
just one thing and that is that this
government be the thing, which it pre
tends to be, but which it is not, a
republic in the full sense of the word.
We are not asking for anything that
is abnormal or that does not comply
with progressiveness. Suffrage must
be granted before this government is a
republic." Immediately afterward Dr.
Shaw left for Pittsburgh.
