ney, concluded his argument begun

judgment and the granting of a new
trial.
Should the Court of Appeals decide
adversely to Becker, his next recourse
would be a request for executive clem
ency to Governor Whitman, who, as
District Attorney of New York coun
ty, prosecuted him. or an appeal to the
United States Supreme Court on the
ground "that his constitutional rights
had been violated.

KIDNEYS BOTHER!
Eat Less Meat and Take a Glass of
Salts to Flush Out Kidneys—
Drink Plenty Water
Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like lumps of lend. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is ir
ritated, and you may be obliged to seek
relief two or three times during the
night. When the kidneys clog you must
help them flush off the body's urinous
waste or j r ou'll be a real sick person
shortly. At first you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region, yon suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizziness,
stomach gets sour, tongue coated and
you feel rheumatic twinges when the
weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of .lad Salts; take a tablespoon
ful in a glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your kidneys
will then act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, 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, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-watcr drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active. Druggists
here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kidney
trouble while it is only trouble. —Adv.
