No man or woman who eats lots of meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing thefkidneys. occasionally, says a well-known authority. Too much meat may form uric acid, which clogs the kidney pores so that they sluggish ly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood; then you get sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders often come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonfui in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. and has been used for gen erations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to help neutralize the acids in urine so t no longer causes irritation, thus ofen ending bladder disorders. Jad salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia water drink, which everytne can take now and then to help ceep the kidneys clean and the blood mre. thereby often preventing serious iidney complications.

Thought It was Idle Talk Says Mrs. Kruger “When I fl rat hear so much talk In favor of Tauiac I though It was only idle gossip since this medicine ha* done me ao much good I know every word was true,” declared Mrs. William Kruger, 6»2 S. Hohman St., Hammond, Ind. "Before 1 started taking Tanlac I wa* ao weak that the least little work, like making the beds, was almost more than I could stand. Sometimes when I would bend over sharp, stab bing pains In my back felt like they would finish me, and 1 had such ditzy spells and buzzing pains In my head I was nearly wild. My stomach was upset all the time, I lost my appetite entirely, and any food I would force myself to eat caused me terrible pains, gas and heartburn. It was Impossible tor me to get a good night's sleep and it looked like I would never be well again. “But now 1 have no trouble at all, for Tanlac has made me feel like myself again. My housework is easy, I have a splendid appetite and indigestion and the pains in my bach are things of the past. In short, I am healthy and happy, and consider It my duty to let others know what a valuable medicine Tanlac is.” Tanlac is sold t>v all good druggists. e . —, Harding Enters Texas Senatorial Fight Today Dallas, Tex., Oct. 23—President Harding totfay entered the Tdxas senatorial muddle. A letter from the chief executive to R. B. Creager, state republican chairman was made public, in which Mr. Harding commended Texas republicans for coming to the aid of independent democrats in a concentrated fight "against all grouping of classes and attending dictation, which is contrary to American ideals.” Creager recently returned from Washington where he conferred with leading republicans concerning the candidacy of George E. B. Peddy, 30 year old lawyer who was chosen by anti-Ku Klux Klan democrats and “adopted” by the Texas G. O. P. to oppose Earle B. Mayfield, democratic nominee. Mayfield, it is alleged, was backed by the "Invisible Empire” in the primary battles. An entanglement of litigation now holds the name of each of the sena- , torial aspirants off the official ballot.
