We are a nation of meat esters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is re- tained in the blood to poison the en- tire system. ) When your kidneys ache and feel Hike lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the ur- ine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night. When you have severe headache, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad wea, ther, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acld of grapes and lemon juice; sol bined with lithia, and has been u for generations to flush and stimu- late clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer THE DAILY BRITISH THE CONFESSIONS OF ROXANE (By Frances Walter) Ny : ALL 1S ARRANGED FOR MY FLIGHT (Copyright, 1916, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate), There was®nothing in my new roof to amuse me except a few old magazines, and 1 soon found that I could not read them, so persistently did my mind dwell upon my plains to escape. Should I succeed? And if I did mot, what would be the pen- alty? Would I be thrown back into the secret chamber, and like any other incorrigible prisoner, be placed on a diet of bread and water? Determined that nothing within my power would arise to prevent me making good my flight, I took out the road map which Jane had given me and went over again very care- fully the route 1 was to take to as- sure my freedom. Then I closed my eyes and formed a mental picture of the great old house, and recalled the passageways I was to take in reaching the front door. All sorts of possibilities went through my brain. Would it be bet- ter to leave my door slightly 'ajar, so that I could save the fraction of a second necessary to open it? Should I run to the front door or walk sedately, ag thqugh I were merely looking about the premises? Would I be able to start the car im- mediately, or would I, in my ner- vousness and haste, bungle the job hopelessly? Fortunately, the weather The garden was walled in on the front, and on either side there was a high hedge, so thick that it was impenetrable to the eye. In the rear a great board fence arose, separating it from the mysteries of the back yard, from which rose thé barns, stable, garage, and one or two other outhouses. As ] made a tour of the garden the feeling that I was being watched never left me, and at length was con- firmed by the rustle of leaves as I passed along beside the hedge, Twirling a rose in my band and carefully refraining from exhibiting curiosity, I walked on until my lungs were filed witlf the fresh air and my "heeks were red from the exhilarat- ing exercise, 1 pretended to have seen nothing, although my heart had thumped violently and my breath had quickened on two occassions--once when 1 distinctly saw a pair of very red and very masculine eyes staring at me through a . section of the hedge, and again whefi another of the guards was plainly visible through the leaves as he lolled at full length on the ground and chewed a straw, But no one spoke to me. Indeed, every one seemed to avoid me, or, rather, to hide from me, as though I were somé uncanny object. I learned afterwards that they thought I Was a leper who had been spirited away from the authorities and was being cared for by relatives, so that I might not be sent to a was mild, and, barring accidents, there should be no trouble with the starter, But would 1 have time? Would not some one see me enter the car in time to stop me, either by jumping into the car and seizing the wheel or by closing the great gate, So intensely did I consider these and other matters that if wasn't long before my head was in a whirl and I was pacing the floor in anxiety and dread. Soon my spite became too small for me, 'and I hungered for the outside air which had been de- nied me, My room was. stifiing. There was nothing in my agreement with Harry Pendleton to prevent me walking about the yard, and such a trip might be of great help to me in my plan of fiight, so I threw a light wrap over my house dress and went to the garden. 3 I saw no one at first, yet I was conscious of being watthed, Indeed, it seemed to mé that many pairs of eyes were upon me, and for this reason [I assumed my most casual lazaretto, This belief on the part of the guards served me well a little later, and was the cause of no little mystification to me, ignorant as I was at that time that 1 was regarded in any such light. The tour of the garden completed without any apparent gain to me ex- cept for the fresh air, I returned to where a cold luncheon was laid. But I saw na one, not even Jane. 1 could not understand why she had not ap ed, and. I was beginning to feel an almost childish yearning for her presence when my door open- ed without any warning knock and Jane glided in. "Be ready for instant flight," she, said, and then laid her finger on her lips. In another instant she was gone, I darted to my bedroom and slip- ped on the wrap which 1 had dis- carded, Then I crept close to the outer door, placed my hand on the knob and waited with pounding 'heant for the bell to give me the air as 1 threaded the labyrinth = of paths in the great front yard. < signal, - (To Be Continued.)
