Unpieked Grapes Go to the Poor.

A curious old law, which dates from
1779. has been used to sentence the
owner of a vineyard at Capestang
near Beziers. France, to a fine and
costs for picking her own grapes. She
was picking the grapes which had been
left on the vines in her vineyard after
the fall gathering, when the policeman
told her that she was committing an
offense against the law, as all grapes
left on the vines after the harvest
were the property of the poor. The
court at Beziers confirmed the police
mans opinion, and the woman was
convicted.

BLADDER weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urlha-

four ounces of Jad Salts from your
pharmacist and take a tablespoonful

in the urine so it no longer is a
source of irritation to the bladder
