EAT LESS MEAT
IF BACK HURTS
Take a glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys if bladder bothers
- you.
Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or othes, says a well-known
authority, because the uric acid in
meat excites the kidneys, they be
come overworked; get sluggish;
clog np.and cause all sorts of dis
tress, particularly backache and mis
ery in the kidney region'; rheumatic
twinges, sever? headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir
ritation. The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast 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 flush clogged kidneys and stimu
late them to' normal activity; also
to neutralize the acids in the urine
so it no longer irritates, thus end
ing bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which millions of
men and women take now and then
to keep the kidneys and urinary or
gans clean, thus avoiding serious
kidney dijeasa.

ACTRESS TELLS SECRET
Tells How to Darken Gray Hair
With a Home-Made Mixture.
Joicey Williams, the well-known
actress, who was recently playing at
the Imperial Theater in St. Louis,
made the following statement about
gray hair and how to darken, it:
"Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home that will darken
gray, streaked or faded hair, and
make it soft and glossy. To a half
pint of water add 1 ounce of bay
rum, a small box of Barbo Com
pound, and V. ounce of glycerine.
These ingredients can be bought
at any drug store at very little post.
Apply to the hair twice a week until
the desired shade is obtained. This
will make a gray-haired person look
twenty years younger. It does not
color, the scalp, is not sticky or
greasy and does not rub off.
