No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make mistake by flush ing the kidneys occasionally, says a wellknown authority. Meat forms uric acid which eXcites the kidneys, they become overWorked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheuma- tism, headaches, liver trouble, nerv- ousness dizziness sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from, sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation fscalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of lad Salts from any pharmacy; take tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast and in 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.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes delightful effervescent Whitewater drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.-Adv

LIFE WITHOUT
 CHRIST LIKE
 A DEAD HAND Dr. Jordan Compares Non. Christian LlIe to a - "Wlthered Hand"

"The Withered Hand," was the sub ject o1 Dr. A. Homer Jordan's serm- on at the First Christian church last story of the man With the wlthered hama, as found in Mark 3:1-5.
 "Inis hand," said Dr. Jordan, twas useless. 1t had been active aud use- ful. 1t had been capable ot perform Ing many tasks. In this condition it had lost it's capability. 1t was dead hand. 1t was intolerance 1t was In the way of the proper action of the body it was torerunner of worse conditions. You perhaps have with cred hand. 1t is q lack of something in your Christian life. It may be the wltnered hand of influence. You could once win men to the right path Now you have not that influence. It may be the withered hand of service. Once you did much for others but you now do little or nothing. It may be the withered hand of purity. Once your thoughts were pure. Your whole life was an example of purity. It may be that your faith has some what withered. Perhaps it is the withered hand of prayer.
 Christ can restore your Withered hand. There must be effort on your part, however. Our Lord strength ems for Christian service, but you must also work. Christ sometimes calls to that which seems impossible, but he will help YOU through. Stretch forth your hand now. Christ will speak the word that makes whole. Now is the accepted time."
 MT. Saxton sang "He Loved Me So," This was a song we'll fitted to his rich baritone voice. and was most ac- ceptably rendered.

DEPUTY INCOME TAX
 COLLECTOR IN CITY

As the time for filing income tax returns has been extended to April l, Collector Jack Walker has assign ed J. B. Holder to Pine Bluff to as slst any one desiring assistance in tho preparation of their income returns. He will remain here until the 23rd and possibly longer. He will be found in the internal revenue office in the post office building.
 MT. Walker is particularly anxious that his district show up we'll and does not want any person or corpor- ation to fail in it's duty to the gov ernment in the payment of their war tax and is giving all the assistance possible to the public.
 The excess profits tax is quite a complicated one, and in order that the method of computing the tax may be understood, this general rule should be followed: First, ascertain the net income, and in the case of a corpor- atlon, the amount of capital cmploy- ed in the business, both for the pre- war period and the taxable year. If the net income for the prewar period. 1911. 1912, and 1913, shows more than 5 per cent, you are entitled to t/<e that percentage of the capital as a general deduction in computing ex- cess profits, and in addition spe- clfic exemption of $3,0OO. Should the percentage for the prewar period fall below 2 per cent, that amount will be allowed as a general deduction. If the corporation was not in business during the whole of at least one of the prewar years, s per cent of the invested capital will constitute the general deduction. In the case of a partnership or an individual, the spe- cific exemption is $6,000 instead of $3,000.

DIDN'T THINK SHE'D
 EVER BE WELL AGAIN
''Tanlac Has Made Me We'll ard Strong" Says Mrs. Miles-Suffer- ed 20 Years. Gained 29 Pounds.

"I am now twenty-nine pounds heavier than I was when I began us- ing Tanlac and I feel like new wo- man in every way" said Mrs. Annie Miles, residing at 1445 Evergreen avenue, Jacksonville, Fla, short time ago.
 For twenty-five long years l suf- fered with stomach trouble and indi- gestion and tried everything I ever heard of for it, but kept getting worse all the time," she continued. q just had to force myself to eat enough to keep me alive, and what little I did eat made me suffer hours of agony, from gas that would rise on my stom- ach. I had awful headaches and dizzy spells constantly and was so nervous could hardly sleep. l fell off in weight and got so weak and no-account that felt I could never be we'll again.
 One of my neighbors told me what Tanlac had done for her, and I started taking it. I begun to pick up right away. I kept on gaining until I had increased in weight twenty-nine pounds and my strength has come back to me in full force. I can eat anything want and everything tastes good. My nerves are all right again and I sleep like a child at night and get up in the morning feeling fine. Tanlac has made me strong and we'll again.
 Tanlac is sold by Central Pharmacy.

WOMEN WHO FASCINATE,

The art of fascination and attract iveness in women is founded on good health. Women who drag through long hours, days, weeks and some times months of suffering with head aches, backache and dragging-down pains soon wear the tell-tale expres slcn of woe and misery. If every such woman would only turn to that good old-fashioned root and herb remedy Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, to alleviate such ailments it would surely prove the greatest aid to health and consequent beauty that she has ever known.-Advt.
