USE NEW KIND OF AX HANDLE
Will Save About One-Fourth Price
Originally Paid For No
Stronger Handles
Washington, Aov. 20. —Through now
specifications fur ax, sledge, adz. pick
and other hickory handles, the Pana
ma ('anal authorities have recently pur
chased large quantities of this class
of material for one fourth loss tbau
formerly paid, and at the same time
are getting just as serviceable stock.
The war department and the na\y
department, as well as the Panama
canal commission, have adopted these
specifications, which were prepared by
the "forest service primarily for the
use of the various branches of the fed
eral government. Subsequently, how
ever. they have been approved by tiia
trade, both manufacturers and dealers,
and adopted by several of the leading
railroads.
The new rules are the result of a
long study of the subject, covering ex
haustive strength tests, investigations
of the growth of hickory in the woods,
processes of manufacture and market
conditions. Under the new specifica
tions handles are selected according to
weight, as influenced by the density
of the wood, and they now include ma
terial which may be either partly or
wholly of heartwood. known as red
hickory. Red hickory was formerly dis
criminated against in commercial grad
ing, but it is now accepted, since it
has been found that weight for weight
it is just as serviceable as the white
hickory. Handles which contain small
sound knots or bird pecks, so located
as not to affect the strength, are also
accepted.
IF BACKACBY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat Less Meat and Take a Glass of
Salts to Flush Out Kideys—
Drink Plenty Water
Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,

relief two or three times during the
night. When the kidneys dog yon must
help them flush oil' the body's urinous
waste or you'll be a real sick person
shortly. At first you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region, you suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizziness,
stomach gets sour, tongue coated and
you feel rheumatic twinges when the
weather is bad.
Kat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of .lad Salts: take a tablespoon,
fill in a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days anil your kidneys will
then act line. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with litlna, and has
been used for generations to clean clog
ged kidneys and stimulate them to
normal activity, also to neutralize the
acids in urine, so it no longer is a.
source of irritation, t.niis ending biad
ier weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure: makes a delightful effervescent
iithiawater drink which everyone
<hould take now and then to keep the
kidneys elenn and active. Orugfjists
here say they sell lots of .lad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kidney
trouble while it is only trouble. Adv.
