Mr. Bissett Is making his supply go as far as It will by filling only small orders and delivering one-quarter ton lots. It is understood that Jacquart Funk received four carloads of coal a few days ago, and from this supply they are filling orders that have been on file from old customers.

The fuel administrator, R. F. Fountain, has the coal situation well in hand, and is prepared to issue orders for coal to anyone who is unable to secure same from his own dealer. It is rumored that the administrator expects to make a house-to-house canvass in order to ascertain which homes can serve as auxiliaries to the coal yards In case the coal shortage continues.

When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much 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 headache, dizzy spells; your stomach 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 a good, reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made 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 bladder weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters.
