BOND BILL A NULLITY.
House Judiciary Committee Reports
Issue q Dead Letter.

The house judiciary committee, af-
ter careful study, holds that the cot
ton bond bill is a nullity because it
did not become the law until mid
night Tuesday, many hours after the
election was over with. The report was
prepared by three of the best equip
ped lawyers of the State. 1t is con-
else and reads:
The committee on judiciary, to
whom was referred Message No. 21 of
his excellency. the governor, as to
the time when the act referred to will
become law without the governors
signature, beg to report:
First. That the constitutional
provision reads as follows: If a bill
or joint resolution shall not be re-
turned by the governor within three
days after it shall have been present.
ed to him, Sundays excepted, it shall
have the same force and effect as if
he had signed it, unless the general
assembly, by adjournment, prevent
it's return, in which case it shall have
such force and effect unless returned
within two days after the next meet
ing.
Computation of Time.
Second. That in the opinion of
this committee the computation OF
time in this case should be made by
excluding the day on which the act
was presented to the governor. This
being so, Friday is excluded, and the
three days will not be completed un-
til midnight Tuesday, November 3,
1914. This is in accord with the
opinion of our own supreme court in
the case of Corwin VS. comptroller
general, S. c., $50.
The language of the court is as
follows: That the three days with
in which the governor is to return a
bill with his objection is to be COM
puted by excluding the day in which
the bill is transmitted to him.
I'm that case the bill was trans
mitted to the governor on Thursday
and it was held that he could return
it up to midnight of Monday night,
and, that failing to do so, it became
law at midnight Of Monday night,
the general assembly being still in
session.
In This Instance.
In this instance. the bill was
transmitted to the governor on Fri
day, October 80, and by the same
calculation will not become law un-
til midnight Tuesday night, unless
signed by the governor or returned
with his objections without signing

|MEAT CAUSE OF
( kidney TROUBLE;
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys if
Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers.

If you must have your meat
every day, eat it, but flush your
kidneys with salts occasionally,
says a noted authority who tells
us that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in
their efforts to expel it from the
blcod. They become sluggish
and weaken, then you suffer with
dull misery in the kidney region,
sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours, tongue is coated and when
the weather is bad yor have rheu-
matte twinges. The urine gets
cloudy. full OF sediment, the chan
nels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating
acids, to cleanse the kidneys and
flush off the body's urinous waste,
get four ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy here; take a table
spoonful in glass of water be-
fore 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 has been
used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, SO it
no longer irritate,. thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can
not injure.. and makes a delightful
effervescent lithia-water drink.
