If you are bothered this way, then your Kkidneys need attention. No doubt your blood is filled with uric acid. _This irrita- ting acid has caused your kidneys to be- come weak from overwork. It has made them sluggish, the liver and bowels are clogged, and the wasto which should be drained from the system is retained in the blood to poison the entire body. Kidney diseases start mysteriously and sometimes lead to Dropsy and Bright's Disease. At the first “pain in the back” get from your druggist about five odnces of Rheurnasalts. Take two teaspoonfuls In 3 glass of water before breakfast each mor and In a few days vour back will feel fine, because your kidneys are working right. Rheumasalts is a wonderful effervescent lithla_drink, which helps the weakened kidneys and liver and cleans out the stomach of toxins and polsons and leaves the Intestinal canal clean and sweet.

How much HAT’S the Tire Question in a Nutshell { Not—“how much_does the Tire Cost”—“how much Rubber is in it"—“how many layers of Cotton fabric”—or “how many different Vaul- canizings does it go through.” Because,—Results have shown that some of the Tires which have most Cotton, Rubber, Weight and stifiness, give much less MILEAGE and Resil- ience than other tires made lighter by more expert workmen, through more direct and precise Methods. Nor is so-called ““Mileage Guaran- tee” worth conside¥ing in purchasing of Tires. Because—no Tires are actually gueranteed to give definite Mileage, no matter what the surface reading may suggest. Such “Guarantee” would be imprac- ticable with the best Tire ever made, or that ever will be made. —This, unless the Tire User could, in turn, guarantee the kind of roads over which he would ahays drive, the kind of driving his Chauffeur would always do, and the air pressure he would always carry on each Tire.

Read any of these “Guarantees” that are printed (or have the verbal ones defined) and you will see that they don’t guarantee except that the Maker alone shall decide every- thing such “Guarantee” is supposed to cover. Thelarger the Mileage “Guarantee” the higher the price the Maker must charge, to cover (as with Life Insurance) the increased “risk” of replacing Tires that are reasonably sure to wear out in considerable numbers, before they bave given the “Guaranteed” Mileage. The Careful Driver, over good toads and streets, would thus pay more than the Tire is worth, so that the Reckless Driver, or hu who must continually drive over bad roads and streets, might get Mileage he is not en- titled to, at the Driver's expense. e & @© HE Goodrich Safety Tread is the fairest-priced Tire, of similar Quality,in the field.— Ten to 30% lower than other Tires that give less Mileage on average perform. ance less effective Traction, with more Vibration, and greater tendency to sep- arate the layers of Fabric and of Tread.
