ample provision for the rising gen

the boys of today for customers

the sales, to have them go out from
this store well dressed, comfortable
and happy. So we scan every line
that we buy for them very closely
selecting the best made, most
durable garments in the best and
smartest styles, then marking
them so that any boy can be bet
ter dressed here for the price than
anywhere else.

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
aaaaaaa aaaaanaal
Take a Glass of Salts if Tour Rack
Hurts or Bladder Bothers Meat
Forms LTrlc Acid.
If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says a noted author
ity who tells us that meat forms uric
acid which almost paralyzes the kid
neys in their efforts to expel it from
the blood. They become sluggish and
weaken, then you suffer with a dull
misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, diz
ziness, your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is . bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
gets cloudy, full of sediment, the chan
nels often get sore and irritated, oblig
ing you to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
To neutralise these Irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the
body's urinous waste get four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
take a tables poonful 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 litbia,.and has been used for gen
erations to flush and stimulate sluggish
kidneys, also to neutralise the acids in
urine, so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive: cannot in
jure, and makes a delightful efferves
