They be- come sluggish and weaken; then you ' may suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coa ed, and when the weather is bad iy you have rheumatic twinges. The -} urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, I} the channels often get sore and i ritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. ‘To help neutralize these irritating acids; to help cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- ¥ fore breakfast for a few days, and soar zidneys 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 years to help flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer irritate, thus often relieving bladder weakness.

Always canny, he watched his step and no insurmountable political barriers could be raised against him by Hoover's friends. Stand on Farm Issue. Curtis voted with the farm bloc for passage of the McNary-Haugen bill, but hen President Coolidge vetoed it he | refused to vote against the veto. Early in his career Curtis learned something, he never has forgotten throughout four decades of public life. In the last analysis the voters decide the election. As Represeniative, as Senator, Curtis has kept in touch with the individual voters, in old party con- | vention days as well as in the era of the primary. But Curtis always has done more than keep in touch with the people of his district—later of his State. He has sorved them, not only collectively but individually. It is said that no Kansan, Republican, Democrat, or otherwise. has ever written Charlie Curtis without receiving an answer. And the answer would be to the point. the writer was told so, plainly. were possible, Curtis tried to do it. Hold on His State. He has regarded himself, in addition to being a United States Senator, as a sort of attorney for the people of Kansas at Washington. That explains, in . part, at least, the hold Curtis always has had in Kansas and the respect in which he always has been held by his colleagues. Of course, Curtis is a good politician.
