Glass of Salis for Kidney Pain and Urinary Issues
An old advertisement-style warning claims meat forms uric acid that overworks kidneys. It promotes four ounces of rad Salta daily, a grape and lemon juice lithia mix, to flush kidneys, prevent pain, and ease bladder irritation. Ends by touting wide use and affordability.
War aims and peace terms urged by Lloyd George
The British premier stated the government acts to end German domination, not to destroy Germany or Austria Hungary, calling for democratic reform in Germany as proof the old militaristic spirit has died. He argued a territorial settlement requires consent of the governed and that only German choice can decide it. Also reports on a major Lexington whiskey raid and a Times cable on Belgium’s crisis and calls for intervention if Germany fails to evacuate Belgium.
