IF BACK ACHY OR KIDNEYS BOTHER Etit less meat and take a glass of Salts to Hush out Kidneys — Drink plenty of water. Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irrtated, 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, 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 Jad Salts; take a table- ' spoonful 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 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 weakness. Jad Salts Is inexpensive, cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say thej' sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble.

MILK HELPS TO BALANCE RATIONS FOR CHILDREN By Publicity Committee. I Milk is a balanced food. It con- ’ tains the elements which are neces sary for the growth of the human body. It is ap excellent food to be used for balancing other foods used lin the diet. The alkaline qualities make it especially desirable to neu tralize the acids so common in other foods commonly used on the tabic. 5 Farmers and stock raisers for a long time have known that it was necessary to make a study of care and feeding their young animals in ■ order to obtain satisfactory results. ’ That many farmers and stock raisers e have not observed these principles 5 in feeding their boys and girls, is shown by weighing and measuring j tests of rural school children. The r following story was recited by Miss • Leila Ogle of the home economics extension staff of Purdue University. A certain county in Kansas which i prides itself on having all American 8 families, on having no charity fami- . lies, and having its men as authorir ties on livestock feeding, weighed - and measured its school boys and ’ girls. Sixty-nine percent of the 3,700 . children of this county were underf weight. A large number of these * children use little or no milk. A r 5 demonstration was started in five - schools. Children were given one- • half pint of milk in the middle of the morning and in the middle of the afternoon for two months. The result ■ was that the underweights were eliin- * inateil in three schools. i During the county fair in Clarke - County, Ohio, in 1920, over 900 cliilI dren were weighed and measured. In I checking over the weights and measures it was found that 41 percent of the rural children were 10 percent or more underweight, while 39.8 , percent of city children were 10 percent or more underweight. , Are tho children in ’your family 1 normal, well nourished children? This is your responsibility. i “If our rural families are going to i have as well developed children as they have pigs, they must feed their children as well as they do their pigs.’’ This remark was made by Miss Neale Knowles of lowa State University, who declared that many
