QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take q glass Of SaltD before .brealkfast
II your Back hurts or Bladder
Is troubling you

No man OF woman who eats meat regu-
larly can make q mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
encites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get cluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplsssness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys. a.,
The moment you feel a dull ache in the
kidneys or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended by
q sensation of scaldirlg, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in a few days your kidneys
will 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
the Kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder. weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
~injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithla-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,
or when it fades. turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by q lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture Of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands Of women and men who
value that even color, that beautiful
dark shade Of hair which Is SO at
tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture improved by the addition Of other
ingredients by asking at n drug
store for a bottle Of 'Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
n the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell It has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking n
small strand at a time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that, be-
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after q few applications, 1t also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance Of abundance.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
to impart color and a youthful ap-
pearance to. the hair. It Is not in,
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
vention Of disease.

THE SOUTH DOING ITS SHARE

If any one thinks that the North
ern, or the Eastern, or the Western
States have any monopoly upon pa
triotism and effort toward winning
this war, they r. in error and had
better set to work to re-shape their
opinions. From all that we a gath
er, the South is striking a pace that
seems almost amazing when M con
siders that the South is not dense.
ly populated by white people, and
that in some of the Southern States
the colored population may outnum-
Der that of the whites.
. From letters written by Northern
visitors they are rather surprised
over what the South is doing. Most
of them have not been South since
last Spring, returning home before
war with Germany was an assured
fact. Since then, the South has won
derfully changed. The Southern
States seem to realize that they are
in a measure on trial, and they are
vieing with each other and with all
their sisters of the North and West
in seeing which can best show it's de
votion to the Union. The South is
not doing as much talking as some
other sections of the country. Their
boasts and promises are not quite so
loud and so e~xtravagant; but they
seem to be there with the goods
when it comes to performance.
The result Of a recent survey
made by an expert from the Russell
Sage foundation for South Carolina
serves as an indication Of what the
South is doing. That State .has FILL

ed its quota for the regular army.
and the sailors and marines. She
has done more than her share. in
sending forth ambulance and nurs-
ing contingents, and has largely, aid
ed the Young Mems and Young Wo-
mems Associations. She has enlisted
visiting friends Added to this, a
reage and to multiply the quantities
Of foodstuffs. She has enrolled boys
and girls by the thousands in corn
clubs, pig clubs, canning clubs and;
scout organizations, and they are
working like beavers. Children of
wealthy parents, who have. not been
accustomed to work in the past, are
going to the fields daily to work on
their own corn allotments, and the
whole State is seeing a wonderful
revival of agriculture. She has en-
listed her churches in welfare work
for soldiers in the training camps,
and has for the most part abolished
saloons and haunts Of vice, in the
place of which. has been established
community clubs for soldiers and
houses of entertainment for their
visiting friends. Adeed to this, a
cooperation between the white and
black races which has not been OBJ
served before since the days of
slavery has been established and all
activities are being aided by both.
Now this summary of what is gov
ing on in South Carolina is typical
of the entire South. One man speaks
of "such changes in Georgia in IL
months as to almost make it a new
state. Everybody is doing his ut
most to help the country in the war,
and they are saving and working and
planning ways to help in every
branch of society. If we don't look
sharp they. will outstrip US in. the
North" =.
But best of all it is said that there
is less German propaganda in the
South than in any other section of
the country. The Southerner will
not tolerate it. If one isn't for the
United States,he is for some other
country, and he is plainly told that
he had better go to the other coun-
try to make his home. Half-treason-
able acts and seditious talk that is
tolerated and passed over in. the
North are not being committed or
heard through the South. People
who r inclined that way are told
to shut up or get out Of the soun-
try.-Utica IN. W Observes. .
