THE WOMEN
PLANTED TREES

When the women start out to
do a thing, it is as good as done.
That tree planting stunt an
noupced for Monday by the la
dies of the M. E. church society,
was carried out with precision
and despatch. The job was well
done, and with the exception of
Mrs. Hawkins and Mrs. Con-
stant, who were not quite equal
to the task, each woman dug the
hole and planted her tree with
her own hands.
Because in future years, when
people enjoy the grateful shade
of these trees they will want to
know the names of the women
to whom they are indebted, we
here make a record of the names,
as follows:
Mrs. Ernest Kemp.
Mrs. J. S. Kelly.
Mrs. j. L. Stubblefeld.
Mrs. Neal Jenson.
Mrs. ]. F. Lasater.
Mrs. l.. D. Roberts.
Mrs. L. w. Jackson.
Mrs. F. R. Holloway.
Mrs H. B. Hawkins.
Mrs. J. P. Porter
Mrs. E. F. WiedeRanders.
Mrs. A. M. Parrett.
Mrs. Willie EIgin.
Mrs. J. A. Constant.
Of course it is possible that
some of trees will not thrive. no
matter how good the care given
them. but the greater number
will flourish, and in the course of
years will make a slightly place
of the church lot.

We are a nation of meat eaters

The kidneys do their utmost to
free the blood of this irritating acid,
but become weak from the oyerwork;
they get sluggish; the eliminative It's

tanned in the blood to poison the en-
tire system.

you have severe headaches, nervous

stomach or rheumatism in bad
weather, get from your pharmacis
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a glass OF water
before breakfast each morning, and
in a few days your kidneys will act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice
combined with lithia and has been
used for generations to flush and
stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutral

Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
