TOWNSEND.
Judges Delay Decision.

The Grange fair school exhibits
were so large and well done that the
Judges, who are Rev. R. H. Bosworth,
Prof. Earle Blanchard and the train
ing class teacher, Miss Marion Graves
have found it impossible to go over
and Judge the work before the end of
this week The work will be on exhi-
bition in the Baptist vestry until Sat
urday and the judges hope to announce
their decision the first of next week.
It certainly would be worth while for
those who have not seen this exhibit
to do so this week as it gives an idea
of what the pupils can do and are do
ing in the schools. Supt. George B.
Whitney has taken much time to ar
range them in an attractive manner
and the work of the 80 schools in his
charge is credit to pupils and teach
ers.

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a glass of Salts if your Back
hurts or Bladder bothers-
Meat forms uric acid.

If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasionally, says noted author
ity, who tells us that meat forms uric
acid which almost paralyzes the kid
neys in their effort to expel it from
the blood. They become sluggish and
weaken, then you suffer with dull mis-
cry 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 you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine gets
cloudy, full of sediment, the channels
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 tablespoonful in 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 has been used for genera
tions to flush and stimulate sluggish
/ kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in
urine, so it no longer initiates, thus
ending bladder weakness.
| Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes a delightful efferves
icent Whitewater drink.-Advt.

The losses during October were
larger than for any one of the proceed

NO REDUCTION OF
TRADE MOVEMENT
Dun's Review States Neither
Election Nor Rising Prices
Can Check Business

New York. November s.-R G. Dun.s
Review tomorrow will say:
Neither the pending election nor the
persistent rise of prices have percep-
tibly reduced the momentum of the
business movement. Activity continues
undated at a time when more or less
hesitancy is usually witnessed and it
remains a wonder that with costs
mounting steadily. and in many cases
rapidly demands are sustained in such
great volume. New buying for current
and forward requirements still out
strips the facilities for both produc-
ton and distribution, labor conditions,
and the growing scarcity of materials
acting as brake on manufacturing in
many DIRECTIONS.
Car shortages also are a hindrance
and the CONSEQUENT restriction of fuel
supplies causes some concern among
industrial interests. With shipments
generally backward and the trend of
prices continuing strongly upward pro-
ducers display greater reluctance in
extending commitments farther into
the future and an increasing number
of profitable contracts are being re-
jected. Weekly bank clearings, s5,-

made by the Huntsville police depart
ment that transfer wagon used in
hauling United States mails to and
from the postoffice and depot has been
used in delivering liquors to Illicit
dealers in various parts of the city.
The police assert that deliveries Of
liquors have been made in defiance of
their authority and that they could not
stop the wagon and search it without
violating the federal laws in delaying
mails. The wagon was held up and
searched without result several nights
ago and the incident made the green
policemen who pulled this the butt of
heaps of ridicule. However, since for
NAL charges shave been made of the

wagon, something may come of the
matter after all.
