SMALLER ROOMS REDUCE
DEMAND FOR CARPETS
BERLIN. May 19.—As Germans
.moved into smaller living Quarters,]
'because of high rentals, the need |
for floor coverings declined pro-]
‘ portionatcly. At the same time'
j prices continued high on account]
of the heavy import duties on raw j
materials, and out of both these’
conditions there resulted a buyers’
jrtrlke. People dispensed with new’
'carpets, or got along with what
they had before.
Notv carpet prices have fallen I
j from one-third to one-half, but:
i even fto a domestic covering nine],

DIVORCES IN FRANCE

! PARIS. May 19.—Divorces have
I doubled in France since the war, |
'according to figures made public rc
jcently, j
! A general divorce law was firs'
! passed in France in 1884. and in
.that year there were 1.657 divorces
I In 1913, the number of divorce,
| were 15,372. In 1919, when the'
'armies were being disbanded anj|
ipeople iwere free to put their housesl
in order, this number reached IB,-{
1465. In 1920 it reached 31.465, In]
11921 the number was 30,468, and 1
jtlie past year 30,753.
The causes of this increase of di
vorces are not tabulated, due to the
secrecy of court proceedings relating
to family affairs.

CLEAN KIDNEYS i
BY DfilNKING
LOTS OF WATER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys if
Bladder Bothers or
Back Hurts.
Ealing too niucl, rich food may
produce kidney trouble In some form,'
says a well-known authority, because
the acids created excite the kidneys.!
Then they beconto overworked, get!
sluggish, clog up and cause all sorts'
of distress, particularly backache and,
misery in the kidney region, rheu-.
me.tlc twinges, severe headaches, acid!
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary Ir
ritation.
Tho moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren’t acting right, or if
bladder bothers you, begin drinking
lots of good water and also get!
about four ounces of Jad Salts from(
any good pharmacy; take a table-i
spoonful In a glass of water hetore
breakfast for a few days and your,
kidneys may then act line. This fa-!
mous salts Is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithla, and lias been used for,
years to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to activity; also to
neutralize the acids In tho system}
so that they no longer Irritate, thus,
often relieving bladder disorders. !
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;!
makes a delightful effervescent i
litliia-water drink which millions of>
men and women take now and tbenj
to help keep the kidneys and urinary]
organs clean, thus often avoldlngi
serious kidney disorders. By all
means have your physician examine
your kidneys at least twice a year,
