UNDER DIFFICULTIES.
MY HEART is sad nnd bitter, I have the grip today, nnd it
is hnrd to twitter a bright nnd jaunty- lay. My neighbors,
in the offing, uro sick and wenry too; I hear them roundly cough
ing nnd crying "Ah-ker-ehoo !" An epidemic's breezing ncross
tho darkened hills, mid nil the world is sneezing, nnd taking pie
bnld pills. "But cheer up," says tho doctor, "this epidemic's
bnd, but soon we slwill have knocked her, nnd shooed her from
our grad. And meanwhile I mil making all kinds of useful coins,
nnd this should soolhe your aching and throbbing hearts nnd
loins. Kxcuso my glad emotions, excuse my joyous thrills ,' I'm
handing out the potions, I'm dishing up the pills. And when wc
docs deliver the villnfto from disease, I'll have a brand new fliv
ver, nnd bask in pomp nnd case." And so there's always some
ono who profits from distress; the fact's perhaps a rum one, but
it will hold, I guess. And whilo the village papers relate grim
tnles of woe, tho learned physician capers und dances to nnd fro.
V His rapture is contagious, ami I, a gloomy wreck, forget the pains
outrageous that wind around my neck; my dismal thoughts I
shako off, nnd sny "I'm glad, kerehoo, thnt some ono has a rake
off from things like grip nnd flu."
COCOA, Fla., Mar. 22. Tentative
plans for the remainder of President
Harding's vacation ; trip as disclosed
today, contemplate a return to Wash
ington between April 7 to 10. The
vacation party today cruised on north
ward, with the houseboat Pioneer
mulling good progress. It was certain
that St. Augustine, the end of the
cruise, would not be reached before
tomorrow evening at the earliest and
possibly not before Saturday morning.
On arriving at St. Augustine, Presi
dent and Mrs. Harding with most of
the other members,, of the party will
leave the Pioneer and take quarters at
tho hotel Ponce de Leon. The viBit to
St. Augustine, where Jlr. and Mrs.
Harding have been' spending several
weeks each year for. about eighteen
winters is expected to extend over
next week and probably until after
Easter.
The tentative plans then - provide
that tho party go lei Augusta Ga., for
a stay of four or 'five days; after
which they will return to Washington
to arrive probably on April 7 unless
the president should decide to visit
Marion, Ohio, on his way back.

Eating too much rich food may pro
duce kidney trouble in some form, says
a well-known authority, because the
acids created excite the kidneys. Then
they become overworked, get sluggish, j
clog up and cause all sorts of distress, ;
particularly backache and misery in the j
kidney region, rheumatic twinges, severe 1
headaches, acid stomach, constipation, '
torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinary irritation. i
The moment your back hurts or kid- !
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder j
bothers you, begin drinking lots of good j
wattr and also get about four ounces of .
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; !
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water j
before breakfast for a few days and ,
your kidneys may then act fine. This j
famous salts is made from the acid of '
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for years to 1
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to activity ; also to neutralize the
acids in the system so that they no I
longer irritate, thus often relieving blad- j
der disorders.
Jad Salts can not injure anyone; 1
m.ikes a dclitrhtful effervescent ' lithia- !
water cksjnk which millions of men and
women take now and then to help keep
the kidneys and urinary organs clean,
thus often avoiding serious kidney dis
orders. By all means have your physi
cian examine your kidneys at least twice
a year.
