AID ALL MEAT
IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Uric Acid in meat excites Kidneys
and irritates the
Bladder.
Take Salts at first sign of Bladder
weakness or Kidney-
Backache.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
Where it often remains to Irritate and
Inflame, causing a burning:, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation at
the neck of the bladder, obliging you
to seek relief t,wo or three times dur

stant dread, the water passes some
times with a scalding sensation and is
very profuse: again there Is difficulty
in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
Jt, because they can't control urina
tion. While it is extremely annoy ins
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa

two or three days. This will neutralize
the acids in the urine so it no longer
Is a source of irritation to the blad

normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with
lithia. and is used by thousands of
folks who are subject to urinary dis
orders caused by uric acid irritation.
Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and

MAXWELL WINS
TWO CONTESTS
Carrying Greatest Weight, Goes
Two Miles More to the Gallon
Than Nearest Rival
Recent testa for economy in gaso
line consumption conducted in differ
ent sections of the country show that
the Maxw.el! car continues to enjoy
superiority in this vital item affect
ing the motorist's purse.
Within the iiist month, two import
ant economy contests were conducted
one in California and the other in
Virginia and in both of these, the
Maxwell car was victorious, proving
its ability to go farthest on the small
est amount of fuel. Both of these
contests were participated in by a
number of cars of well-known make
and both were officially checked.
H. P. Jayrie, government sealer of
weights and measures, officially ob
served a test in the Yosemite Valley,
Cal.. recently. Five cars were started
from the Commercial club in Fresno
for the valley, after Mr. Jayhe had
sealed the tanks. The roads were in
the. worst possible condition. The
steep grades were made doubly hard
by having six inches of dust and the
ruts from the heavy traffic let the
cars down frequently to a point where
the axles scraped the road.
Arriving in Yosemite Valley, Mr.
Jayne broke the seals, and with certi
fied measures rclilled the tanks with
gasoline, also weighing the loads car
l-led by the cars, including passengers
and luggage.
The result showed that the Maxwell
consumed seven gallons of gasoline
and carried 875 pounds. Its nearest
competitor used eight and six-tenths
gallons and carried only G35 pounds.
The third car in the competition used
nine gallons and carried 874 pounds.
Two other cars trailed along. In
other words, the Maxwell carried a
greater weight than any other auto
mobile in the contest and did two
miles to the gallon better than its
nearest competitor.
At the Virginia State Fair held in
Richmond early in October, the Max
well won a big economy run in com
petition with practically all the four
cylinder cars sold in that city. All
of the contestants were started with
one-half gallon of gasoline in a spe
cial tank provided by the fair author
ities. The Maxwell distanced all com
petitors by a wide margin, covering
thirteen and three-tenths miles on
the half gallon.
Leave Carburetor Alone,
Says Studebaker Expert
When it comes to tampering with
the carburetor on a car, the best ad
vice is "don't." so says Max Hagelstine
manager of the service department of
the Studebaker corporation.
"The first thought with so many
motorists is to change the adjustment
of the carburetor with every decided
change of weather," continues Mr.
Hagelstine. "They seem to think the
carburetor ought to be adjusted one
way when the day is dry, another
when it is wet, still another when it
is hot, and again when it is cold.
"Sometimes the owner himself tries
to make the adjustment, and at other
times he turns the job over to a garage
man. What he should do instead is
either to consult the dealer for the
car, or else the local representative of
the carburetor company, if there is
one in his town.
"Now, it is true that the mixture
should be rich or lean, according to
the kind of weather. But adjustment
of the carburetor is the wrong way
to secure the proper mixture. The
right way is to make use of the
'choke' which on Studebaker cars is
located on the dash. Pulling this
'choke' out secure a rich mixture, ami
that method should be adopted when
the motor is cold. After the engine is
running for a while and gets warm,
the 'choke' should be pushed in.
"What happens when the carbure
tor has been tampered with to secure
a rich mixture is that gasoline is
wasted and the condition in general
invites the formation of carbon de
posits. That means loss of power, and
incidentally it militates against
economy, aside from the likelihood of
getting the carburetor mechanism out
of adjjustment. So my advice is to
leave the carburetor alone.
"Troubles are likely to occur from
a continued improper mixture of gas
and air due to a wrong adjustment
of the carburetbr. If t?ie owner for
gets the existence of his carburetor
and lets it alone to perform its func
tions he will find that he will secure
the most satisfactory results from his
car. He will get better performance,
greater economy and longer service
without the necessity of giving atten
tion to the mechanism.
"After some automobile owners
have had their cars three or four
months, and have pretty well mastered
the art of driving, they begin to get
H desire to tinker with the mechanism.
The carburetor generally tempts them
first, because it seems so accessible.
Tt if. right there before them as they
lift the hood; and they try their hand
at making adjustments, although the
instruction book states explicitly that
the carburetor should never be
handled except by an expert In the
employ of the manufacturer of either
the car or the carburetor."
Care of Storage Battery
Told by Ensminger
In discussing the care of motorcars
and the things that owners leave un
done, E. C. Ensminger, local Dort
i'stributor says, "One of the easiest
things to take care of in an automo
bile and one of the things most
neglected is the storage battery.

on the top of the battery to do this.
If possible take your reading without
removing the hydrometer from the

any chance of spilling the battery

If the float rises higher than this out

needs recharging. Always read the
condition of your battery before add

remembered that a weak battery is
very likely to freeze In winter. This
always cracks the hard rubber Jars

to their batteries very carefully in the
cold months.
Pays SBBO For Second-
Hand Dodge Bros. Car
Much public discussion hac been
devoted to the subjeat of second-hand
Dodge Brothers cars and their selling
value. Only a few months ago, John
Cheek, brother of the Nashville,
Tenn., dealer, sold his Dodge Brothers
roadster for SSOO after having driven
it more than 29,000 miles. Curtis J.
Miller, Dodge Brothers dealer in Nez
perce, Idaho, now comes with an even
more striking illustration of the great
demand for this type of car. The
Nezperce Herald speaks as follows of
the incident: V
"On Tuesday Curtis Miller sold
Clem Carey a Dodge Brothers car.
Clem and Gail Carey, with Wilfred
Waters and George Fox, departed at
once in the car for Wyoming, where
they expect to take up homesteads.
The circumstances leading up to this
sale are rather out of the ordinary.
Mr. Carey decided all at once that he
wanted a Dodge Brothers car and no
other. Curtis Miller, the local dealer
had none in stack and could not get
one, so he pleaded with Prof. D. C.
McMahan to let Mr. Carey buy his
car, with the understanding that It
was to .be replaced with the first
Dodge Brothers car that Mr. Miller
could obtain. ; The deal was made.
Prof. McMahan had run his car 2,198
mlleß, but it v(0.B just as good as new
and there tons no discount off the
regular price—~sßßo."
Mr. MHler adds, with a geyitle
touch of IronjV that "This Is the only
way I can make anything—-sell each
•car four or five times. Please rush
shipments.'

who says that a short time ago he
made better than 91 miles an hour.
When all was ready, Rader swung
out into the road from the hangars
at 30 miles an hour. He was flying
50 feet abovo tho motorcar. The
speed increased until the aeroplane's
tractor screw was roaring. Yet neither

reached 85 miles an hour. This left
the flyer behind and put the motorcar

The race was over a four-mile stretch
