Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged
and need flushing occasionally, else we
have backache and dull misery in the
kidney region, severe headaches, rheu-
matte twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach,
sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder dis
orders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active apd clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
rcgion, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store 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 is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to normal
activity. 1t also neutralizes the acids
in the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY

The following excellent poem has
already been in the Star twice, but it
is such a very good one that by the
request of several of our readers we
print it again:
And here's to the blue of the wind
swept north,
When we meet on the fields of
France,
May the spirit of Grant be with you
all,
AS the sons of the north advance.
And here's to the gray of the SUM-
kissed south,
When we meet on the fields of
France,
May the spirit of Lee be with you all,
As the sons of the south advance.
And here's to the blue and gray as
one,
When we meet on the fields of
France,
May the spirit of God be with US all,
AS the sons of the flag advance.
George Morrow. May.

The Star thinks it would be a good
idea for the police to round up some
of the people who negligently or in
tentionally do not observe the cere-
mony of lowering the flag at p. m.
The country folks can't be expected TO
always notice the custom, tho they
are generally very prompt about it if
they are aware of it. But the town
people have no excuse. particularly
since the Boy Scouts went on duty
The other afternoon, at the earn
Thomas corner, we noticed two fla
grant instances of disregard at the
same minute. Two boy scouts were on
duty, one at the marker in the middle
of the street and the other on the
sidewalk. When the bell began strik-
ing, the boy at the marker raised his
car who were driving at the limit of
speed up the street. They paid no
attention to him, and went scooting
on up on the square. At the same time
two young white men came up the
street on foot The scout on the side
walk spoke to them, but they walked
on by without even removing their
hats. 1t would have been only justice
to have put the entire bunch, white
and colored, in Jail overnight. On
the other hand. Monday afternoon,
when at the Harrington corner, we
noticed a trio of little negro boot
blacks roosting on the curb. They
were ragged and dirty and couldn't
have been expected to be very pat
riotic or observant of anything but
chance to make a nickel. But at the
first tap of the bell, they were all up
and their tattered caps were off.
These little fellows probably don't
have much chance to show their 10y
atty, so whenever an opportunity
comes along they never miss it.
