SWAPPING BOOZE
is LAW VIOLATION
Revenue Agent Declared for One Per-
sen to Loan Another Liquor He
Must Have License.

Macon, Oct 6.-As the result of in
vestigation on the part of the gov
eminent officials in Macon prosecu
tons for the violation of the internal
revenue laws are likely to come Duh
of the grandojury session which be,
gins the fourth week in this month.
According to one of the officials
statement yesterday afternoon, the
regulations of the internal revenue de-
partment provide that any person MAX
ing a sale of whisky or beer is to
have a license to so do. The swap
ping of whisky is interpreted to be a
violation of the regulation.
For instance, if man lends another
a quart of whisky until his shipment
comes and is repaid with quart, that
is considered, according to this gov
eminent official, retail liquor dealing,
for which a special tax must be paid.
Several instances like this are known
to the government agents, the official
stated.

AMERICAN PROSPERITY.

Aided by the federal reserve bank
system, American business men will
be able to withstand most success
fully the shock of European cOmpe-
tition after the close of the war in
Europe, in the opinion of Charles
Hamlin, former governor of the fed
eral reserve board, as expressed at
the recent annual dinner of the In
stitute of Accountants in New York.
81 estimate that the wealth of the
United States has increased during
the last two years by $40,000,000 900, -
said Mr. Hamlin. Bank deposits have
increased between $4,000, 100000 and
1000 ,000,O00,000 and the stock of gold
has increased more than $500, 100000.
Since the first of the year the impor-
tations of geld have amounted to
$460 100000
mo nation in the world has ever
enjoyed the prosperity that this
country now enjoys.
Never again will this country see
a collapse of credit such as we have
often seen in the past" he declared.
"Never agan will there be currency
famine such as we experienced in
1907.
81 am convinced from a careful re-
view of the situation that the great
prosperity of today is only a fore
runner of the greater prosperity of
the future Industrial Index.

BIG EATERS Gets
KIDNEY THO LIB LIE

If BACK HURTS OR BLADDER
BCTHERS YOU.

If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally, says a noted
authority who tells SHAT meat forms
uric acid which almost pralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to eXpcl it
from the blood. They become slug
gish and weaken, then you suffer with
a dull misery in the kidney region,
sharp pains in the back or SEX head
ache, dizziness, your stomach sOurs,
tongue is coated and when the wealth
er is bad you have rheumatic twin
yes. The urine gets cloudy, full Of
sediment, the channels often get sore
and irritajed, obliging you to seek re
lief two or three tines 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 pharma-
cy here; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for
4 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
noutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
iure and makes a delightful elferycs-
cent lithia-water drink.

NOT BAD LOSER
MAKES STATEMENT WHICH is
FULL OF GOOD FEELING AND IN
TEREST FOR ALL GEORGIA VOT-
ERS.

Forsyth, Oct Ito the people o.
Georgia:
"a number Of newspapers have re
Gently carried articles that | would
probably be candidate for the Su
preme Court against Judge Price Gil
bers. These articles were published
without my knowledge or consent
They evidently eminatcd from friends
who thought that on account Of the
| fact that ! had received more county
units, and several thousand more pop
ular votes than any other candidate
and that with fourteen candidates in
the race | had received over 1900
votes, considerably more than one
third of the total vote cast, that
should have the nomination. TO those
whose Partially prompted these ar
ticles | am grateful.
But the convention decided differ
emily and as said in part in my local
paper: of course, was disappointed
but this soon disappeared for re-
membered that the people wanted me
and their verdict was more to be priz-
eds of more real head and heart
value-than the nomination of the
convention.
During the campaign | spoke of
the other candidates in terms of kind
ness and praise only, which | will CON
tinue to do. Three good men were
selected, and will make splendid
judges.
81 conducted an absolutely clean
campaign, as did all the other candi-
dates as far as | know, and when the
convention was over, with a consci-
ence void of offense, with no feeling OF
resentment or unkindness to any living
being, | returned to my home, slept
as soundly and as peacefully as if |
had never been in race and, this
morning, found that the sun rost in as
great splendOr, his beams were as
bright, the sky as blue, my friends as
loyal and true, my loved ones as de-
voted. God as good and His promises
as true as if | had been nominated by
the convention.
ITO the more than 1900 voters who,
free and untrammGled, went to the
polls and voted for me, | give thanks,
full, profound, heartfelt. / want all OF
them to know that | shall always re-
member with deepest gratitude the
part they took in giving me Iany
thousand more votes than any other
candidate, and that with bouyant
heart | have turned my face to the
future, happy in the consciousness
that | have their confidence and es-
tcem
81 have always tried to live up to
the golden rule. Judge Gilbert is my
friend He was been appointed to fill
an unexpired term. Were our posi-
lions reversed | would not like for
him to run against me, and l shall do
as I should like to be done by and
not be candidate.
Here are hearty congratulations
to him and to Judge jenkins, George
