The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with urio acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish ; the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; u you suiter witli sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your phar macist about four ounces of J ad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine.' This famous salt is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been' used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is. a source of irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure, makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water beverage, and belongs in every home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flush ing any time. Always Moving Ahead Thousands of the brightest minds in this country are de voted to the development and improvement of Bell Telephone service. Steadily and constantly some fault is eliminated, soma method improved, or some obstacle overcome. To realize the steady progress that has been made one only has to compare the quality and quantity of the service today with what it was ten years ago. Even in the last five years the number of telephones in use has been practically doubled and the distance of telephone transmission multiplied many times. Our rates are the lowest possible and yet afford sufficient revenue to pay a reasonable return on the money invested, after paying" fair wages and after providing sufficiently to rebuild or restore parts of the plant when destroyed by fires or storms, or when it is worn out or becomes obsolete. It is our constant endeavor to give the best service at the lowest rates at which it can be furnished, so we shall be able to connect everyone who will add to the service to others.
