If KIDNEYS AC!
BAD M SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.
When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been
eating too mpeh meat, says a well-
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the blood
and they become sort of paralyzed
and loggy. When your kidneys get
sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels;
removing all the body’s urinous
waste, else you have backache, sick
heartache, dizzy spells; your stom
ach sours, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels
often get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
either consult agood.Teltabl
aieian at once or get from. your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Balts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then act
fin*. This famous salts is mode from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and - has .been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad
der weakness.

CANADA PLANS AID
FOR SOLDIERS WHO
RETURN FROM WAR.
Winnipeg, Canada, December 11.—
Plank' for the demobilization of Can
ada’s 280,301 overseas troopg under
a system intended to moot economic
and industrial conidtiond* have been
completed and will be put into oper
ation when withdrawal of the forces
is consented to by the nigh com
mand. /
After considering available ship
ping facilities and rolling stock in
Canada, the Imperial Ministry
Shipping and the Canadian War
Board have concluded that the rale
of return can approximate 20,000
men a month.
Close study of the military and
economic phases of demobilization
resulted in a decision to first return
men whose trade classification show,
cd there was immediate use for them
in industry. Preference is to be
given married men, the older of their
return to be determined by tiie
length of time in oversea* service.
Then single men will be returned
along the same general lines.
Classification of the troops into
occupational groups by the mtitia
I department was deemed advisable
to meet the requirements of the la
bor market in the various districts.
To return the men regardless of
their occupation would work a hard
ship upon them as well as upon in
dustry, offii'idls decided.
Latest figures list 286,304 as tiie
number of Canadian troops overseas.
