TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS IF . YOUR BACK' HURTS OR BLADDER TROUBLES YOU it No man or ‘woman Who' eats meat regularly can malke a mistake by flush- ing the kidneys occasionally, .says a well-known authority.. Meat. forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the biood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheu- matism, headaches, liver troubje, ner- vousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish | Jigneys. . The moment you feel 2 dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or'if the urine s cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at- tended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating weat and get about four-ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; tdke a tablespoonful 4n a glass of water Lefore breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. ; This fam- ous ealts is made from the acid-of grapes and Jemen juice, combined with lJithia, and has been used for.genera- tions to flush and stimulate the kid- ne; also to meutralize the acids urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder weakness.

Every place in the church within seeing o hearing distance of the Speaker was occupied and many -stood throughout: the meeting of two hours. When' at ‘the close of an appealing recital of his experiences for three years with the British soldiers in”the trenches, Gypsy ‘Smith gave the invi- tation for those to come forward who wanted 'to live the Christian life. the" alsles. were jcrowded with - fnen and women ‘pressing forward to the frort seats. “As'the chorus sang verse after verse of Just As 1 Am, ethers kept responding’ to the invitation ~of the evangelist, while' the peopls in the front sezts: kept vacating them and moving into the rear of the church to ‘make way for those coming forward. By the time this part of the meeting had. come to a close with the prayer by® Gypsy Smith and the Doxology sung by. the congregation fully' 200 had, indicated their decision for a stian life. rom the time that Gypsy Smith began hig recital of his experiences he | consumate | ‘held “his. audience with power, stirring them to laughter and applause with some witty phrase or moying.4hem to tears.at some tender recital of. the.battlefield or camp. Taking up first the condition in Fng- land at'the time of-the opeping of hos- tilitles’ he . stated that FEngland was manufacturing tohs of T N T and sending to Germany right up to the beginninz of the war. ~After the war started they &Lept on sending it—in an- other way. But the British navy was ready, thank God for that, he declared, and in a few months we had a- volun- teer army of five miilion men, the crearn of the British emnire.

' (Applause). Those wonderful boys—I would have k and felt” unworthy, ., Those boys went over the fop with prayers on their lips—and they were -payers, and/then they come home and hear what you call prayers, but the Bible calls much speaking. Looking around the audience, Gypsy asked any men who had served 'in the army ‘to rise. A number came to their feet and the evangelist called for cheers for them which werc given in a hearty burst of applause. Gypsy had his audience in roars of laughter as he told of purchasing a birthday present for a soldier’'s sweet- heart and -then being cbhliged to read the letter that came back with. ‘a whole row of crisscrosses at the bot- tom, which the soldier blushingly re- ferred to as ire entanglements.” It was a blessed privilege, the evan- gelit contifiued, to be a link between these boys and. their homes and moth- ers. They wanted straight “That’s the stuff,” they =aid, “Give us some more.” QGypsy gave a vivid description of canteen meetings, the singing, the planos: with every chord a lost chord, and showed his tact in reaching his soldier audiences. It wasn't far from ragtime to the Cross, he ‘declared. Ragtime was the outlet for homesick- ness, but when Gypsy asked ‘them to choose a song before he was to speak to them they would say, Give us When I Survey the Wondrous Cross. The evangelist had his audience in tears as he closed’ his powerful &d- dress. with .an -appealing recital of a soldier's death. This boy was ready, he said, and T kissed him for his mo- ther ag I closed his eyes. Are you rveady? There is only one ' way—to make Jesus your Saviour and Lord. At the close of the meecting Gypsy Smith, Jr., announced that on Sunday affernoon at 3.30 he would hold a spe- cial meeting at the Central Baptist church at which he would tell the rtory:of His father’s iife. The audience at the afternoon ser- vice numbered about 300. The sing- ing wus a feature of the service which was of an intensely interesting nature. The: Seripture lesson was read by Gypsy Smith, Sr. It was the story of the discovery after three days’ search. of the lost Christ teaching in the" Temple. Mr, Smith took his ser- mon-topic from this story, making his thems The Lost Christ.
