RADIO MIRROR Many Never Suspect Cause Of Backaches This Old Treatment Often Brings Happy Relief Many sufferers relieve nagging backache quickly, once they discover that the real cause of their trouble may be tired kidneys. The kidneys are Nature's chief way of taking the excess acids and waste out of the blood. Most people pass about 3 pints a day or about 3 pounds of waste. Frequent or scanty passages with smarting and burning shows there may be something wrong with your kidneys or bladder. An excess of acids or poisons in your blood, when due to functional kidney disorders, may be the cause of nagging backache, rheumatic pains, lumbago, leg pains, loss of pep and energy, getting up nights, swelling, puffiness under the eyes, headaches and dizziness.

Don't Act Your Age (Continued from page 37) which have been worked into the Town Hall broadcasts. Allen urged him to write some sketches for himself on the Hour of Smiles. "But if I tried to do that," Walter told me, "I think I'd be overstepping myself." His attitude toward the press raves which Fred Allen is always bringing him for his scrapbook is as typically modest. "They don't mean I'm good," he says, "they just mean my press agent is earning his salary." If he pays any attention to his press notices, it is to the rare ones that don't laud him to the skies. He was perturbed over a rather flippant description of himself recently and said. "I don't like that. It will lead people to believe I think a lot of myself, and that isn't true." He doesn't have to think a lot of Walter Tetley. Others do it for him. Jack Johnstone, author of the Buck Rogers series and of Walter's new CBS program, the Treasure Adventures of Jack Masters, confessed that he hated kids and didn't think there was another youngster in the game besides Walter that he could have worked with for three years and still like. Helen Hayes' father wrote the star of The New Penny last year that the show wasn't worth listening to when Walter wasn't in it. Walter was written back into the script in a hurry. I can't help but think that much of Walter's success is due to his mother's judicious policy of keeping in the background. There are so many meddling mothers in the professional world that the exception is a distinct asset to a child prodigy. Mrs. Tetley has always accompanied Walter to the studio, but there she becomes his business manager and not his mother. She never goes into an audition or rehearsal with him. He had to learn early to stand on his own feet. "They hire Walter, not me," she explains. "In my generation, children were raised to be seen and not heard. But that wouldn't be very good radio training for a child. So I have brought Walter up on the theory that parents should not be seen — or heard. I try never to put myself forward. Some of the stars who are very fond of Walter — Leslie Howard and Helen Hayes for instance — wouldn't even recognize me if they saw me." The supercilious attitude many gifted children acquire in the limelight is strangely lacking in Walter off the air, though he apes it to perfection in comedy broadcasts. I sought an explanation of this, and his mother told me that she has taught him from infancy that he is a servant of the public, and that he must always consider the audience's wishes before his own. Consequently, he looks up to his public, never feels superior to them. When he played at the Palladium in London, the manager told him afterwards, "What I like about you is you play to the gallery. And when you've got the gallery Learn to Make $30.$50,$75aWEEK JMioom t/ou at harm m Apam iiAWb Do you want to make more money?
