IF BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHE
Eat Less Meat, Also Take Glass
of Salts Before Eat
ing Breakfast
Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overworked and
get sluggish, ache, and feel like
lumps of lead. The urine becomes
cloudy the bladder is irritated, 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 mis
ery in the kidney region, you suffer
from backache, sick headache, dizzi
ness* stomach gets sour, tongue coat
ed and you feel rheumatic twinges
when the "weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lota 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 fan*
ous 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 activ
ity, also to neutralize the acids in
urine, so it no longer is a source of
irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
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. Drug
gists here say they sell lots of Jad
Salts to folks who believe in over
coming kidney trouble while it is
only trouble.
GERMANY BENEFITS
FROM SPA DECISION
Industrial Leaders Agree Couiw
try Will Develop Water
Power to Save Coal
(By Carl D. Groat, United Press
Staff Correspendent.)
Berlin, Aug. 6 (By Mail)While
many industrial chieftains predict
calamitous results from the Spa coal
agreement, especially in the coming
winter, the agreement is bringing
Germany certain blessings in disguise.
First, it has stimulated the nation
to water power development. I
Second, it has shown industrial
leaders the need of unified effort, and
has forced development of a plan of
dividing the nation into "economic
districts" for economic use of water,!
gas and electricity.
Third, it has stimulated national'
unity more than any event since the'
war, and is helping give the separatist
movement in south Germany a seri
ous black eye.
Development of waterpower, par
ticularly in south Germany is no new
thought. Keen engineers have been
studying this problem for a long
time, and have previously taken steps
toward utilizing water as a supple
ment to other power.
But, with signing of the coal agree
ment in Spa, the nation came face
to face with the problemmore pow
er, with less coal. It realized that it
was going to have shorter coal ra
tions this winter than before. Hence,
the idea of water power develop
ment.
The Reichswirtschaftrata body
of the brainiest business and indus
trial leaders of Germanysitting
soon after Spa, had before it a resolu
tion which said:
"For relief of the emergency situa
tion, created by coal deliveries to the
Ausland, the government will immedi
ately take steps for building Up water
power as fast as possible and in the
best possible manner, especially in
South Germany."
A companion resolution called for
creation of a committee of experts
whose duty it would be to draw the
Tand
&r
lines for division of ,ne nation into
economic units. In these subdivisions,
a unified system of power, water,
gas, electricity supply would be
worked out.
As for the third pointstimulation
of national unity of spiritit can be
said that the north and the south
are realizing that they must pull .to-
gether if they are to avoid foreign
occupation of the Ruhr and infinite
resultant damage to German busi
ness therefrom.
And the miners themselves are
hanging the threat of the freezing
and starvation over the heads of
separatist agitators. Herr Hue, min
er leader, has served notice in no
uncertain terms that any portion of
the country indulging in a separatist
movement will be shut off immedi
ately from any further supply of coal.
The nation as a whole is taking
the Spa agreement in good spirit, de
spite many voices which say that it
spells industrial stagnation this win
ter, with the consequent throwing of
several hundred thousand workers
out of employment. Germany doesn't
like the Spa coal agreement it has
been told that it is more than Ger
many can bear, but insofar as one
now can see, the whole country is
determined to do its best to fulfill
the treaty. Then, it hopes that later

the Entente will be ready for more

An interesting phase of the whole
subject is that many observers are
inclined to believe that the measures
now being taken toward fulfilment
of the coal pack, curtailment of coal
usage, and utilization of other means
of power are forerunners of an
earlier socialization of coal and
