a Mount Sterling Resident
Made a Bad Back Strong.

The back aches at times with a
dull indescribable feeling, making
you weary and restless; piercing
pains shoot across the region Of tho
kidneys, and again the loins are so
lame that to stoop is agony. No
use to rub OF apply a plaster to
the back il the kidneys are weak.
You cannot reach the cause. Fol
low the example Of this Mount Ster-
ling citizen.
Mrs. Enoch Bruton, 20 Harrison
st., Mt Sterling, says: zone Of my
family was in bad shape with kid
ney trouble and suffered intensely
from lame back. Doan's Kid
nsy Pills we're procured at Duer-
sons Drug Store and one box gave
great relief. l have also used this
medicine and it has helped me won
derfully."
OVER THREE YEARS LATER,
Mrs. Bruton said: ri gladly con-
firm all I said about Doan's Kidney
Pills before. They are certainly a
good kidney medicine"

BUMPER cRoP oF CEREALS

Three billion bushels Of corn, .
billion and a half bushels Of oats,
and billion bushels Of wheat con-
stitute the prospect for this years
American harvest. Record crops
Of rye, Irish and sweet potatoes, to-
bacco, rice and hay also are pre-
dicted for the prosperous farmers
who have planted 316,546,00O acres
or ten millions acres more than last
year, to their principal products.
The wheat crop, the greatest ever
grown in any country, will be worth
more than a million dollars, while
the corn crops value may reach
two and half million.
Estimates of the principal crops,
announced by the Department Of
Agriculture, based on conditions
August list, show all crops to be
greater than last year. Interest
centered on wheat and corn. Both
showed improvement over July con-
ditions. Though excessive rains and
cold weather in the Central States
interfered with threshing oats and
wheat, also suffered in those States,
the improvement in other sections
more than offset this detection.

A NICE PROFIT

4 farmer, recently speaking OF
mules and the advantages of rails
ing them, said he considered them
the best crop he knew of and had
been breeding them all his life and
never owned mule he could not
sell, and usually at a nice profit
AS am instance of what could be
done with mules he said that three
years ago he purchased five mule
colts and placed them with three
of his own breeding. He paid $50
a head for the five, and that is
probably a close average to the
worth of the lot. During the sum
mer they had the run Of the pas
ture. As soon as the grain was
out of the fields they were given
the run Of the stubble and stalk
fields, and in winter were housed in
a commodious straw shed and fed
some grain. The next spring they
went to blue grass. Four of the
mules were sold during the sum-
mer, and the remaining four were
sold at public sale that fall. The
average selling price for the eight
head was $l9l.50.-Ex.

When Cleopatra was on the turf,
old fashioned people said the world
was going to the devil. But you will
notice the world is still here, and
that old-fashioned people are still
talking that way. 1t all points to
the lesson that there is no need OF

GERMANS KEEP
WATCH ON SPIES

Berlin, July 31.-The measures
against the presence of possible spies
in Germany are continually becoming
sharper. They started, so far as the
public's cooperation is concerned.
with an appeal to travellers to help
guard tunnels and bridges by giving
careful attention to the actions of
their fellow-passengers.
Some weeks ago placard was
posted in all public places, warning
citizens to guard their conversation.
Another placard, warning soldiers
against permitting themselves to be
questioned by strangers, is now post
ed in public resorts and at the rail-
road stations, and a special warning
has been published in the press, de-
claring that spies in great numbers
are constantly present in Germany.
Most of these, it is declared, come
from neutral countries, but there are
also renegade Germans among them.

LOT OF CHEAP LIQUOR, SAID TO
HAVE BEEN PROPERTY OF
WOMAN, HALTED AND CON-
FISCATED IN ALABAMA.

The Pine Belt News, published at
Brewton, in its Thursday issue,
printed the following spicy story:
Two trunks, filled with gallon jugs
containing whiskey, were captured at
Flomaton last Saturday. The trunks
were put on the night northbound
train at Goulding, near Pensacola,
and were to be sent to Mobile. AS the
Office was closed at Goulding no
checks for the trunks could be secured
by the party having the baggage, who
is stated to be white woman resid-
ing in Mobile and who is we'll known
here on account of the notoriety given
her when acquitted of murder in a
sensational trial at Pensacola several
months ago, and the train not going
to Mobile the baggage man only
checked the trunks to Flomaton. At
that place, one of the trunks COM
menced leaking, and investigation
finding that it was whiskey, Sheriff
Kelly was notified. Armed with a
search warrant he went to Flomaton,
and opened the trunks. Twenty one
full gallons of whiskey, in jugs, was
found in the trunks, and one broken
gallon jug. Nothing besides the
booze was found in the trunks.
Sheriff Kelly brought the prohibited
beverage to Brewton and has stored
it away pending orders from the court
as to the disposition of the liquor.
While many mouths are said to
have watered for "a little nip" when
they espied the whiskey, it is said
that they did not miss very much, as
the booze looks to be mighty cheap
goods.
While no claimant has yet showed
up for the whiskey, the woman who is
said to have had the trunks checked,

beautiful, failing in her fearful ap-

SALTS FINE FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat which clogs
Kidneys, then Back hurts and
Bladder bothers you.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and
clogged and need flushing occasion
ally, else we have backache and dull
misery in the kidney region, severe
headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean, and the mo-
ment 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 a
glass of water before breakfast for
a 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 activ-
ity. It also neutralizes the acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious COM
plications.
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. (Adv.)

To the Public.

The small compensation paid To-
cal agents by Fire Insurance Com
panies for handling their business
and the requirements of these com
panies as to the prompt remittance
of balances will not permit of ex-
tended credit to the public and at
the same time allow the industry to
remain on a legitimate and profitable
basis to the agents.
Therefore to correct the rapidly
growing tendency towards unlimited
extension of credit, which unfortu-
nately has become quite general in
the insurance business in Pensacola,
we the undersigned local agents have
found it necessary to adopt the fol-
lowing rule with reference to the
payment Of premiums, which becomes
effective August I, 1915, viz:
Premium in full on each and every
fire and tornado insurance policy
must be paid in cash before the goth
day of the second month following
the month in which the policy is is
sued, after which time If the premium
on any policy remains unpaid the
agent writing the same shall have no
further option as to extension of
credit and shall Immediately take up
said policy"
We solicit the cooperation of the
insuring public of Pensacola and sin
cerely trust they will appreciate the
necessity prompting this action and
the spirit in which it is intended.
