DRUGS EXCITE YOUR
KIDNEYS. USE SALTS
If your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers, drink lots of
water.
When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and,
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with a mild, harmless salts
which removes the body's urinous
waste and stimulates them to their
normal activity. The function of the
kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24
hours they strain from it, 500 grains
of acid and waste, so we can readily
understand the vital importance of
keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of water—you can't
drink too much also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts take a t&blespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast each morn
ing for a few days and your kidneys
will 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 and stimulate clogged kidneys
also to neutralize the acids in urine
so it no longer is a source of irri
tation, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive cannot in
jure makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this, also kesp up the water drink
ing, and no doubt you will wonder
what became bf your kidney trouble
and backache.

A
Citizens of Montrose ihave petition
ed the board of supervisors for a
right of way for power cables from
Keokuk to Montrose. The petition
asks that the county give the right of
way. The supervisors should granf.
the petition since the Montrose peo
ple are enterprising enough to ask
to have electric lights installed in
their town and in their homes.
The Montrose people are to be
congratulated on their progressive
ness. There are few towns the size
of Montrose as well lighted as it will
be when the new electric lights are
installed. It shows a very progres
sive spirit on the part of the citizens,
and a very commendable showing for
the town.
Electric lights and power for Mont
rose from the Keokuk dam will give
it excellent service, and will make it
possible for the residents there to
have "a well lighted up to date town
and stores. Electric power can be
used to advantage. A well lighted
town is always a big asset as well as
an advertisement and Montrose will
find the hew Illumination to 'be both.
A canvass. of the town was made
by the Keokuk Electric company to
find 6ut Just how many people would
like to take the service. The result
was even more encouraging than the
local company had hoped for.
If the supervisors grant the re
quest" and it is supposed that they
will, the lights will .be put in Just as
soon as the cables can be carried to
the neighboring town.
HEARST'S NEWS
IS GARBLED

in the parliamentary debates of the
bouse of that date. Herbert Samuel,
secretary of state for the home de
partment, was asked if his attention
had bfeen called to a telegram to the
New York American from the London
correspondent of the International
News Service, in which it was stated
that the admiralty admitted over
whelming defeat toy a portion of the
German high sea fleet. Samuel re
plied in part:
"No such telegram was passed by
the press bureau and I have ascertain
ed that the passage in question was
not Included in any telegram sent from
this country, but was composed in
the New York offlc6 of the Interna
tional News Service, with the excep
tion of the word 'overwhelming' which
was inserted in the office of the New
York American.
"There were several cases at the
time of the disturbances in Ireland
in whiob messages appearing in the
New York American and New York
Journal which purported to be from
the London correspondent of the I
International News Service bore no
likeness to the cablegrams actually
dispatched and in some Instances
gave information which was opposite
to that which had been sent."

tunities for making a iivTBg."
Switching to criticism of the ad
ministration's Mexican policy, Hughes
said:
"I desire to see our peace main
tained. We,can do that. Our friends
talk about their' policy, particularly
in Mexico, as though it was a policy
of peace. It has not been a policy of
peace. It has been a policy of de
struction of lives and property of
American citizens because of the
withdrawal of protection to which
they were entitled. The seizure of
Vera' Cruz, the slaying of hundreds of
Mexicans, our own men falling In bat
tles—was that peace? They demand
that we should have a personal con
flict with a personal ruler whom we
refused to recognize—was that
peace?"

we are living in an age when a youth

Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering
the sage and the mussy mixing at

"Wyeth'e Sage and Sulphur Com

It is very popular because nobody can
