If BACKACnV OR KIDNEYSBOTIIER Eat Less Meat and Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Out Kidneys— Drink Plenty of Water Uric aeid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. 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 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, tonguo coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days aud 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 clogged 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 weaknoss. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water 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.

Hub it in. First you feel a gentle glow, then a delicious, cooling comfort. MUS TKROLE routs the twinges, loosens up stiffened .joints and muscles. MUSTKROLE is a clean, white oint ment, made with oil of mustard. It pen etrates to the seat of pain and drives it away, but does not blister the tenderest skin. It takes the place of the mussy, old fashioned mustard plaster. MUSTKROLE is recommended for Bronchitis, Croup, Asthma, Pleurisy, Lumbago, Neuralgia, Sprains, Bruises, Stiff Nerk, Hcndacho and Colds of the Chest (it often prevents Pneumonia).
