BIG EATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a glass of Salts before breakfast
If your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you

The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filed with uric
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out. they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like Jumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; If you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar-
,maeist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take q tablespoonful in q glass of
water before breakfast for Q few days
and your Kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts 10 made from the acid
Of grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithis, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate clogged idneys;
to neutralize the acids in the urine 80 It

ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in.
jure, makes q delightful eferveseeut

The dreadful fall army worm has
made it's appearance in Anderson
county and is doing a great deal of
damage to the food crops. The in
sect has in every case originated in
alfalfa. It has been first noticed u.s.
ually when the alfalfa is cut. The
worm then being deprived of green
food starts marching to some other
crop.
The army worm is dark colored
caterpillar about one and one-quart-
er inch long, when full grown, and
has several pronounced stripes rum
ming the length of the body. 1t can
readily. be distinguished from all 9TH

worm is the younger stage of certain

Community Co.0peratiOn

1t may be fact that your local stores are not as large. or as handsomely equipped as some of the big stores, but you will agree with me that your merchants cannot possibly enlarge oc i'm prove their business beyond the extent justified by the amount of patronage accorded them.
 If you are interested in bring. ing about better local shopping facilities, it is squarely up 10 you and other residents of your com. munity, to patropiZe home mer- chants, thus keeping your money at home, insofar as possible, where it will circulate in various channels for the improvement of , the community.
 There are only two possible reasons why a person should re- main in any certain township or community; their duties demand it, or they simply like to live there. Isn't this true in your case.
 In either event, it is to your distinct advantage to do every thing in your power to assist in improving local conditions The community belongs to you and your neighbors, and you are nec- essarily governed by conditions as they exist.
 A prosperous community is in every instance a desirable place

 Perhaps Miss Rankin display ed more courage than judgment, for the country is not. at war with the British Empire or any part of it, and there are those who have regarded the Irish sit nation as proof that the United States is not on the side of polit ical freedom any more than Aus. tria is.

nit of about as good defense as Miss Rankin's will.
 Just why this resolution was offered we do not know. but it would seem that if our only Con gresswoman wishes to help Ire land, something in the nature of a message or a greeting to the Irishmen who are now trying to frame a constitution for Ireland would have been a more fitting thing. The fate of Ireland is largely in the hands of those men at present, and if they bet ter past examples by agreeing with each other, there will not be any Irish question.

Dan c. Idol, editor of the Bel ton Herald, recently made the following interesting and authen ic com pariSoh of prices that coun try newspapers are now WreSt ling with to keep their beads above water.
 Twenty-Five years ago a cord of wood would pay a years sub scription to the Herald: now it only requires quarter of cord Then a bushel and a half of wheat would pay the bill; now only a half bushel is required. Then it was twenty pounds of pork; now four pounds. Then, twenty dozen eggs would cut the market; now three dozen are more than enough. Then it pull ed in eight pounds of butter; now three pounds are ample. Then it took five bushels of potatoes; now only half bushel. Then we got four chickens; now we get only one.
 And then, we bought white news print paper for the Herald at S2 25 per hundred pounds; now we pay S7 90.
