Uric acid in meat excites the kid-
neys, they become overworked; get
sluggish, ache, and reel like lumps of
lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the
bladder is irritated, and you may be
obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the kid-
neys clog you must help them flush off
the body’s urinous waste or you’ll be
a real sick person shortly. At first
you feel a dull misery in the kidney
region, you suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour,
tongue coated and you feel rheumatic
twinges when the weather Is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoon-
ful in a glass of water before break-
fast 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 litnia, and
has been used for generations to clean
clogged kidneys and stimulate them to
normal activity, also to neutralize the
acids in urine, so it no longer Is a
source of Irritation, thus ending blad-
dcr wesikn^ss
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in-
jure; makes a delightful, effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to .keep the
kidneys - clean and active. Druggists
■ here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kid-
ney trouble while It is only trouble.

CAMP TRAVIS, Jan. 19— The Camp
Travis exchanges are proving vital fac-
tors in keeping Denton and Denton
county men in camp and keeping them
satisfied with the hardships of army
life. The exchanges constitute a com-
mon meeting ground where soldiers
assemble and discuss the war situation,
various events of the day and pass hits
of home gossip. In this respect the
exchanges may be compared with the
village store, where the villagers gath-
er about the stove and settle interna-
tional questions and political destinies.
Here the similarity ends, however, for
the camp exchange or army store is an
up-to-date establishment where arti-
cles foreign to thp thoughts of the
country storekeeper are kept in stock.
All Regiments Hine Them.
The camp exchange is the outgrowth
of long army experience. In the form
of the company exchange and the army
store it has thrived since the United
States first had an army. It is at its
zenith now, for everyone of the thirty-
two camps and cantonments in the
S. has a number of camp and. regi-
mental exchanges. All posts and sta-
tions have canteens or exchanges.
Time was when the army canteen sup-
plied .cooling, so-called near beer,
which was very near, since the ban
against this beverage, soda water and
the innumerable "soft’’ drinks which ;
have sprung up to take beer’s place
are to be found at the exchange.
Keeps the Boys From Town.
When the mobilization of the Texas
and Oklahoma men for the Ninetieth
division was begun, the officers of the
Major General’s command were sum-
moned and among other things told.
“A satisfied soldier is a good soldier;
keep them satisfied." Every effort has
been- made to provide the men of the
division with entertainment to occupy
their idle moments, moments which
perhaps would have bred discontent
and homesickness in those first few-
days and weeks. A program of sports,
theaters, movies, swimming, half holi-
days, lectures and amateur theatricals
was evolved, and included was the plan
of keeping the soldiers busy thru lohg
hours of drills. But there was ever
the excuse to “go to town" for one
article or another, until the camp ex-
changes sprang Ipto life. Prior to that
time every tim^. a soldier wanted a
“cheer” or a “smoke” or any small ar-
ticle which habit and the American
tendency to buy had accustomed him
to, he was .compelled to visit town
Town was a long way off and trans-
portation facilities in those first few
days’were poor. Orders went out that
exchanges be rushed and stocked with
e.very article that might meet the im-
mediate deiire of the soldiers.. The
stock was’.placed temporarily in bar- ;
racks, but soon after large buildings
were completed and were to be used
solely for the needs and purposes of
the canteen.
Break Selling Records.
Nearly a dozen army stores sprang
into existence in one day. Thousands
of dollars’ worth of merchandise, can-
dy, fruit and almost everything a sol-
dier’s heart could wish, was made j
available. Newspapers from San Anto-
nio, magazines, clothing, ice cream,
soda pop, candy, chewing gum, tobac-
co, cigars, cigarettes, pop corn, fruits,
many kinds of soft drinks, cakes and
cookies in carloads were made availa-
ble, not to mention the swagger sticks
and athletic goods. The embryo sol-
diers took to the exchange like a school
boy to an ice cream festival. Ice cream
went by the tons, sweets were devour-
ed’ by the wagonloads, fruits disap-
peared as if by magic. Frantic clerks I
tried to handle the rush with little sue- 1
cess. All receipt records were broken.
In some exchanges as much as $1,500
a day was taken in. Imagine a store
of about 18x30 feet selling $1,500 worth
of goods in a day, principally of 5c
commodities!
Charge Nominal Prices.
The exchanges charge a smaller price
than most retail stores for the reason .
that no effort is made to make a profit
other than to pay actual expenses.
There Is no rent, no taxes and little
clerk hire. Therefore, it is possible
for the soldier to provide himself with J
manv nick-nacks at nominal cost. The j
camp exchanges are conducted under
rules promulgated by the War depart-
ment. The rule permits in each Na- I
tional army camp one camp exchahge j
and as many regimental or other ex- |
changes as are necessary to properly i
serve the soldiers. A camp council,
consisting of the camp exchange offi-
cer, who is a commissioned officer and
one representative from each exchange,
selected by the camp commander from
the organist ions participating, regu-
late the general policy and manage-
ment. This council ha« an executive
committee iof five whose duty it is to
supervise and direct the exchanges, i
Frequent inspections are (hade to de-
termine their efficient and satisfactory
conduct.
How Profits Are Distributed.
The net profits of the exchanges are
distributed as follows: To division
headquarters fund. 10 per cent; to
brigade headquarters fund, 2Vz per
cent; and the remainder to be distrib-
uted pro rata among organizations on
a basis of their authorized strength.
These organizations, which are the
companies or batteries, put this money
into their company fund and use it for
various purposes. A larg., per cent of
it is given to the mess fund and is used
to bu? luxuries, such as fruits, ice
cream, etc. for the men’s mess. The
remainder is used to buy articles for
the entertainment and necessities of
the men in the company, as. for in-
stance, .in our company the money was
used t® purchase a Victrola and $50
worth of records, rented a piano for
the day room, bought a large suuply
of stationery with our company’s name
printed thereon, and purchased various
kinds of games with which the men
could amuse themselves in their idle
moments. The result was a 50 per
cent falling off in the number of pass-
es issued to the men to go to town.
They simply did not have any desire
to go, with all these things provided
for them right at home.
The money Is kept in the company’s
fund, and I nave known It to run from
$300 to $750 in one month as many
companies’ pro rata share of the prof-
its.
The money is expended as the com- (
mantling officer directs for the benefit
of the entire organization. The ex-
changes al Camp Travis are still doing
a big business, and to keep them in
operation is one of the big problems
of the camp. But they are proving
worth while, for they are keening the
boys contented and keep them in camp,
an end devoutly sought by all camp
3ommanders. . i
