AVOID ALL MEAT
 IF KIDNEYS AND
 BLADDER BOTHER
Uric Acid in Meat Excites Kidneys and Irritates the
 Bladder
Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder Weakness or Kidney
 Backache.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inf1ame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliginS you to seek relief two or three times during the night The sufferer is in constant dread the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again there IS difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can't control trina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, tnls IS really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful ta in glass Of water before breakfact, continue this for two or three days. This will neu- tralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again.
 lad Solts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lfthia, and is used by thousands of folks who gre subject to urinary disorders caused Ly uric acid irritation. lad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent lithia-water drink which quickly relieves bladder trouble.

|Elenlents and Labor Troubles Cut Output One-Third
OPTIMISM FOR THE FUTURE
Sewing Society of Kensington Churcl, ' Lays Plans For Convention
 terialize-That Bridge Again.

With the exception of the East Ber- lin Brick company's plant, practically ball the brickyards have closed for the Eseason. There has been much to hamper the manufacturers the past summer but all say they consider the season very successful. Even now the Scompanies are making preparations 3for the 1916 season, the belief being
 business will surpass that of recent Wears.
 Man and the elements combined to make the past season smaller than ordinary. Along with the labor unrest < in other parts of the state, Berlin 3 brickmen had their share. Not only
 was labor hard to get but wages were < considerably higher than usual. The
 summer was unusually wet for the in-
 dustry, the heavy rains of August
 moistening the clay so at one time it was thought would be necessary to stop the manufacture of brick. But perseverance finally came into it's own and the owners will in all prob- ability declare dividends. It is possi- $bie the weather and the labor troubles Rcut the output one-third. However, bhe bricl1men feel the season has been 8h succsss and look for better luck next hummer.

Resolutions of Respect.

AS God in his infinite wisdom has
deemed it best to call from labor to
rest one of my best friends, COM
rade and schoolmate in the person
of Dee Homell, Be it resolved; That
another of the strong links of the
chain of friendship has been brok-
en-, which cannot be again replaced
this side the pearly gates of eterni-
ty.
Dee was just entering the state
of young manhood. and promised a
successful future. He was loved by
all who knew him. AS a student
he was one of the best, with his
playmates always agreeable, and
loved and confided in his compan-
ions and especially his parents. He
sought to obey fathers and moth
er's every wish. May Gods rich
grace be the comfort of the be-
reaved parents and friends until
they too are called to that great re-
union of saints. He loved also his
church and sought to serve God as
well as man.

But we must not murmur against
our God,
For tits his holy, holy will;
And though Dee lies meath the sod
We enjoy his mercies still.
"And when we are called to that
better land,
There our angel will wait us to
meet,
There Dee to us with his dear hand
Will wave us welcome sweet.
I'VE loved him, yes we loved him,
But angels loved him more,
And they have gladly called him
To yonder shining shore.

And God said dear Dee come,
And with farewell unspoken
He gladly entered home.

responsible for them. When incompe-
tency is discovered it is instantly elm
mated. A town ought to be organized
as a corporation. Its affairs ought to
be administered as economically and
efficiently as the affairs of any business
corporation. The city manager plan
now being adopted by some of our most
progressive municipalities, is our most
intelligent effort yet made toward the
solution of our problem of town or city
government. 1t is universally adaptable.
Is it not incontestably true that the
first step in wisdom for every town is to
turn the searchlight of investigation
upon its own local needs, that its peo-
pie may understand them and be in ,po-
sition to adopt the most effective meas
ures for the common betterment? But
this investigation will simply exhaust
itself in fruitless protest unless the men
and women who are deeply concerned
for the community welfare bind them
selves together in advance for vigorous
and sustained action. A community
welfare association, embracing all other
organizations existing for the service of
the public-boards of trade, chambers
of commerce, civic clubs, library asso-
Citations, school boards, etc., and includ-
ing every adult resident, ought to be
organized in every town and city in the
nation. Such an association could take
hold of the facts revealed and tabulated
by survey and formulate definite,
concrete program of local development
The building of city, clean, beautiful,
permanent, dignifed, calls for united
action on the part of the people. Fac
tional strife must cease. The petty
scramble for spoils must be rebuked.
The greed OF individuals must be leashed
and a community consciousness must
be created and fostered.

Death waits not for the lapse of
time,
Nor spares the young in years;
He comes in the glad springtime
When hopes begin with fears.
"Tis sad to lay so fair thing
Beneath the damp cold ground,
While all the fairest flowers of
spring
Are blooming all around.
"God, stay the stricken ones
In their agony and tears,
And bend the bow of promise
Where the shadow now appears.
I'VE can see our darling one
In the floating clouds on high;
And dear Dee smiles on us
From the portals in the sky.
ooh! grieve not that he has left us.
Left this world for one more
bright;
Clothed in raiments pure and
white.
Earth to us wears sombre shadows,
Since he from us is gone;
But heaven we know is brighter.
Because it claims our absent one.
Deeply hath the Lord bereft us.
We have felt his Christening
hand;
Dear Dee now hath left u.s.
We are left mourning band.
"Oh aching hearts! we cannot know
Why God took dear Dee away,
But he doth hold the answer right,
And we, mayhaps, shall know
some day.

In Memory.

The entire city of Paragould was cast
into gloom and mourning when word
reached here that FRANKIE Rowland
was dead" Every man, woman and
child repeated the message over and
over to all they came in contact with
until the day was spent. No one in the
city but what knew and was grieving
with the family of the dear girl.
Frances G. Williams (nee Rowland),
wife of Herbert E. Williams, died June
4, 1915, at St. Louis, Mo. Leaving to
mourn her departure, her devoted hus-
band and infant son, Billy, age six weeks,
also father, mother, brother and two sis
tiers, besides hosts of friends.
A little less than two years ago Mr..
Williams claimed as his bride one OF
our loveliest buds from our circle and
took her to the home he had prepared
for the queen and idol OF his house.
And while regretting that they had to
leave us and make their home else
where, it was prophesied that their we'd
ded life would be life long honeymoon,
rejoicing that it could be so. And when
she would visit us, was received with open
arms and great rejoicing.
But after all her years Of sacrifice, in
that she placed herself first to the dis
posal of peed and pleasure of family,
thinking first to relieve the loved ones
of any trials and illness before herself;
sacrificing her rest hours to relieve the
suffering of her sick and dying friends.
Found always on the alert and with
swatchful eyes else someone should be
uncomfortable and she should not over
look them. At church, her place was
always filled in the choir. And then it
was to sacrifice her life that her infant
should be born, and when all was done
that could be done in the way of spcial-
lists and nurses to prolong the life OF this
dear companion and daughter.
Not forgetting even during the intense
suffering she endured, there was that
considerate and sweet word and smile
of love to her patient mother who was
constantly at her bedside and to the de-
voted husband who did all in his power
to relieve his dear one.
The eight young ladies, chums and
former friends of frankie, composed
the line OF honorary pallbearers, dressed
in white, and each with loaded arms Of
the beautiful tokens of love of friends,
the flowers that covered and filled tc
Overlooking the room where the casket
laid. The active pallbearers, composed
of the gentlemen friends, dressed il
white trousers and blue coats, as they
tenderly carried the remains to the las
resting place was very impressive.
| The friends at the cemetery, mum
bered into the hundreds, verified th'
popularity of our frankie, and the senti
ment carried through the entire city wa
one of love and devotion to that beauti
full character.
We will mourn the loss of this dea
| ill Gov manu- dave huf yue pan lonk he
yond and know that some day, soone
or later, we will be united with her il
the Home Above and rejoice that b
her life as an example we have SO live
. to gain this reward SO promised by he
God and Savior and ours.
One WHO LOVED HER.

What Is My Doom For the Day9

What Is My Doom For the Day9
Would you stop and think for a minute,
Or should it be counted in it,
What would be my doom for the day?
Have we done deed so kind and true,
Which is a great help to you,
Or could you realize it as we 60 along
this way.
A true small deed is grand when
Indeed it makes the sad heart swell.
1t lasts for years, without no fears,
And then the story tells,
Nature tells me, kind and true,
What kind deeds are up to do;
For without kind words, and loving, too,
What would life be to me and you?
It's our duty to listen, watch and wait,
Be careful what we say or do,
And in all our little deeds
Wish good luck to you.
Begin at the bottom and climb to the top,
Little by little-by degrees,
And when we reach the goal
We shall be free! free!
Believe and obey is our command for
the day,
Or should we. flee and hide away?
Speak to someone, tell them true
That Jesus died to save me and you.
Then should I sleep and dream
AS we journey along,
Or should l be up and busy
Telling the glad, glad song?
When we close our eyes to rest by night,
What more could be done,
Than to look to Jesus, thanking him
For what he has done.
Think for a minute, what can do in it,
Is my time used as it should be?
Great is the victory when we win,
But we cannot win with our burden OF
@ sin.
These little deeds OF kindness, which are
done each day,
Are always remembered in the same
true way;
But naught is dross and love is true,
So friends will always have good words
for you.
Return and see what you can be,
There is always encouragement along
the road.
The book of Jesus is our true guide,
And for us he was sacrificed.
Think over the road of yesterday,
Look for the future to be bright;
Prepare, we souls, for the judgment there
When all are judged Alright.
Be up and busy as the time draws nigh,
For it wont be long until we shall say
goodbye;
Then shall we say with loving hearts,
God gave them to me God taketh us
apart,
But | shall come with you when my
my heart is not sore,
And we shall sing and rejoice forever
more.

SOUTHERN WOMAN WRITES
 ON LONDON ZEPPELIN RAID

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Well, I have experienced an earth quake, fire, and some panics in my career, but never in all my life, not even our great earthquake in the 'Sos have I seen people so startled. so awestruck for a brief space of time as last night, as the theatres were emptying when the Zeppelins ar rived.
 Then their fear turned to the deep- est anger when the more composed on thl thoroughfares of London wit aessed the showering of bombs from eighf large Zeppelins. Then the sol- euin ,moval mostly of the bodies of a1ue children, who were reverently lifted eHd taken to the nearest hos rtsls to find in many cases life ex- 4aei on arrival.
 Oh! how my blood boiled. Not feel ing inclined for theatres, I had re- tired early, to be awakened at 10:45 by the awful noises of anti-aircraft guns, mingled with the explosions of incen- diary bombs igniting all they touched l rushed to the window. where I stood like bird charmed by a snake to see just over the Palace theatre in Shaftesbury avenue, one of the mon sters held by strong searchlIghts fully three minues. Then 1t seemed to get
