# BACK HURTS USE
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if Kidneys feel like lead
or Bladder bothers you-Meat
forms uric acid.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged
and need flushing occasionally, else we
have backache and dull misery in the
kidney region, severe headaches, rheu-
matte twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach,
sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder dis
orders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to normal
activity. It also neutralizes the acids
in the urine 80 it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should take
now and then to keep their kidneys clean,
thus avoiding serious complications
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe
in overcoming kidney trouble while it is
only trouble.

STICK TO THE fAkA.

With winter coming on. and the
crops safely harvested and slowed
away, many young men of the
farms will be casting longing eyes
toward the great cities.
eywould leave the green Slide
and their pleasures and seek the
glare of the electric lights and the
allurements of the great white way.
They would taste of the creates
life. And therein turks the most
haunting peril that confronts our
Country today. for the nation is
dependent upon the farmer.
Our population is increasing ,by
leaps and bounds. and millions Of
additional mouths must be fed each
year.
From the soil of the farms must
come the produce which sustains
life and body for the countless
thousands who throng the cities.
And year by year young man Of
the country are leaving the farms
to seek their fortunes liz human he
hives.
And each one who fors;,kes he
farm reduces the producing capac.ty
OF the country, although our con-
stantly increasing population calls
for greater farm production.
Young men of brains are need d
on the farm, Their presence tt &c
means much to their country a
thousand times more TRAN Il Y
realize.
The city offers but one chance
in hundred for success, for every
large city is alteady over populated,
and for every job worth the having
there are many applicants.
Today. as we write this article
every city in the country is groan
ing under the burden OF it's unem.
ployed. Many hundreds of thou
sands of people are without bread
and wholly dependent upon charity
That is the condition of the great
cities today-a condition which
S ,ould not appeal to any intelligent
young man from the farm.
The farm offers the young man
a life of honor, and of peace. and Of
plenty.
The glare of the electric light Of
fers him all that he should not
have.
Young men of wisdom should
stick to the farm.
Fools have no wisdom to lose.

MIR. j. p. c. CASKEY DEAD.
Highly Respected Citizen OF the
County Passes Away.


The many friends of Mr.. J. p. C.
Caskey all over the county will be
grieved to hear Of his death, which
occurred at his home six miles west
of Lancaster, Fridly morning at |
O'Clock. No man In the county was
held in higher esteem by both white
and colored people. He was an up
right, honest Christian gentleman.
His entire life, excepting about
twelve months, when he resided here
in town, was spent on the farm.
Having lost his father in his early
boyhood, he devoted his whole life
10 caring for his widowed mother,
sisters and motherless nephews and
nieces. BY thrift, industry and good
business management, he accumu-
lated good estate. Everybody lik-
ed "Mr. Jimmie Caskey," as he was
Familiarity known. He had no trou-
BILE in getting hands to work his
lands. He was kind and considerate
in his treatment of the colored peo-
pie who worked under him. always
giving them their due and receiving
from them good honest work in re-
turn. He was quiet and unassuming
in his manners, but was a man in
whom everybody put entire conf
dence. Lancaster county had no
more true, nor loyal son than James
p. c. Caskey.
Several years ago his health be-
gan to fail and he was taken to a
hospital and one of his legs am
putated. But this did not render
him helpless. He procured an arti-
fetal limb and was constantly in the
fields on horseback directing and
supervising his farming operations,
until about a couple of years ago,
when he had a stroke OF paralysis.
Since then his health has been pre-
carious.
James p. c. Caskey was born
about four miles northeast of Lam
caster, August Is, 1S47. He was
the son Of the late William Caskey
and his wife. Agnes Porter Mr..
Caskey was never married. He
leaves surviving him his sister.
Misses Jane Caskey, half sister,
Mrs. B. Fl. Craig and two nephews,
Messrs. Joseph and Lee Craig, chill
dren of predeceased sister In
early manhood, Mr.. Caskey connect
ed himself with the Presbyterian
church and for a long time was a
ruling elder in the Lancasterville
Presbyterian church, but few years
ago he removed his membership to
the old Waxhaw church, of which he
was ruling elder at the time of his
death.
His remains were inferred in
Waxhaw grave yard Friday after
noon at o'clock, his pastor, Rev.
w. w. Ratchford, and Rev. Hugh II

Rev. w. s. Patterson. The pail
bearers were: Messrs. w. J Cum
