nd irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with mild, harmless salts, which re
moves the body's urinous waste and
them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from it 500 grains OF acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital Importance Of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots OF .water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take tablespoonful in glass OF wa
ter before breakfast each morning for

RUM MAKERS GET RICH
WHILE THE WAR RACES
People of Martinique Prosper in
Trebling of the Value of Their
Main Product.

ST. PIERRE, Martinique.-The
manufacture and sale of rum brought
unusual prosperity to this little island
during the war. Hidden away among
the West Indies this little French col
ony of 100000 people, so small that
it is found with difficulty on most
maps of the world, sent its sons over
seas to fight for the motherland while
the folks at home prospered by rails
ing sugar, coffee, cocoa and manu-
featuring rum.
This took place, too, during a pc
Rod when prohibition was sweeping
over America.
Not only did the exports of this
beverage increase from approximate
1y 100000 gallons in 1913 to s.
862,500 gallons in 1917, a gain of
more than 40 per cent, but the val
ue of the exports increased from ap-
proximately $685. 900 in 1913 to
$9,933,000 in 1917, gain of about
315 per cent.

IF HAIR IS TURNING
GRAY, Use SAGE TEA
Here's Grandmother's Recipe tc

Faded Hair.

Thct beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture Of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When 1t
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or. two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance hum
dredfo1d.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients at a small cost, all
ready for use. 1t is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can
always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and lustre Of
your hair.
Everybody uses 'Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because 1t
darkens SO naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell 1t has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli-
cation It becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is delight
eul toilet requisite for those who de-
sire dark hair and a youthful appear
ance. It is not intended for the cure,

Husband Seeking Divorce I'm
able to Explain why Woman
He Loved Married Him.

1t took just eight years of candy,
flowers, theater tickets and ardent
proposals for Albion C. Thomas, of
Waukegan, ILL.,, to win and wed his
bride. But in ten minutes immediate
ly following the ceremony he lost her.
"And the next day, mind you, your
honor, / heard she eloped with her
cousin" Thomas told the Judge be-
fore who he was making plea for
divorce. 81 would just like to know
what she married me for, that's all, y
he continued. The judge suggested
that perhaps she welded Thomas to
get rid of him.
According to Thomas he was mar
ried to Mrs. Katherine Thomson on
Jan. 4, 1917. The ceremony took
place at Waukegan and Immediately
afterward the bride suggested to her
husband that she go to Chicago to
visit her married sister and he go to
Milwaukee, Wis, to look for a new
position.
"And that's the last / ever saw of
her." the young husband said. "Her
sister told me she eloped with her
cousin the next day and now they are
living in Minneapolis, MINI. l am
through with her." he explained to
the judge VIXEN asked if he had ever
a reconciliation.

Beauty in London Mystery Proved to

Had Visited America.

The tragic death of Mrs. Alma V.
Steane, 26 years old, known in
America as the Glove pirate" has
shocked society of two continents.
The young woman, who asserted she
was daughter of Rudolph, formerly
crown prince of Austria, and Princess
Vetsera, was found in dying condi-
ton few hours following her return
from the second victory ball in Lon
don. An empty bottle on the dresser
is being used by Scotland Yard de-

= Mrs. Steane was not an American,
as was first supposed, but of Polish
nationality. She always maintained
that she had been brought to the
United States by renegade Austrian
priest, who, she said, deserted her.
Never lacking funds the young wo-
man soon found many admirers in the
United States, and had many love af-
fairs.

Offers to Make Appointment With
Ministers and Furnish Names.
The Calhoun Courier of recent
date printed the following interesting
communication:
For several weeks past there has
been a spy among the church people
of Arlington. This spy has likened
to as a bird, and given birds eye
view of the church service of the past
few weeks in Arlington.
While spying at the church SER
vices this person has not failed to
keep one eye on the church people
while not at church and has been
watching the business methods of the
people of Arlington and observed
their movements to some extent in
private and business life.
1t may shock some of our people
who are not posted as to what our
neighbors are doing for this scribe
to state that it has come to light that
some of our most prominent church
members are dealing in moonshine.
We know what we are talking about,
and are prepared to prove the asser-
ton. If the pastors of either, or
both of the churches, want the evil
dence we promise to produce it, and
will deliver to him in his pulpit next
Sunday night sample of the stuff
and furnish him the names of his
members, who we are prepared to
prove are dealing in it. This effects
both Baptists and Methodists of Ar
lington.
Now, preachers, if you want the
dope we have it. Drop us note, in
care of the Courier, and we will make
an appointment with you and fur
nish you with the evidence so that
you can use it at your services next
Sunday night. SPY.

GAIA CITY LAID
Low BY THE WAR
FAMOUS PLACE OF BIBLE TIMES
MORE THAN HALF IN RUINS
FROM SHELL FIRE.

GAIA, principal town in south Pal
estine, the only city from which Sam
son once carried off the gates, lies
half ruined by the war, its CONNER
cial Importance gone, with the ro-
nance which has come down from
Bible times and the middle ages as its
only possession.
Many of it's buildings have been
laid low or made uninhabitable by
the shell fire of Gen. Allenby. The
great MOSQUE was used as an ammuni-
tion dump by the Turks and event
ually was blown to pieces by them.
The whole town is reported in ruin
Gus condition, and unless this condi-
ton is remedied there is little hope
that the town ever will regain its pre-
war Importance as the center of a
rich agricultural district.
Before the war GAIA had a popu-
lation of some $4,000, most of them
Moslems. 1t was the seat of COVER
nor. and had small garrison, an IN
ternational postoffice, telegraph Of
fee, orphanage and European hosplt-
al. 1t was situated in the direct line
of communication between Egypt and
Syria, and, though the caravan traf-
fic virtually had ceased, it remained
an important market for Bedouins,
being abundantly stocked with dates,
figs, olives, lentils and other provls-
ions. Barley was largely grown in this
district and exported to Liverpool,
and the olive harvest also was con-
siderable.
At least one-quarter of the town
was damaged so. badly that it cannot
be repaired, and the reconstruction
of the remaining houses is too big a
problem for the municipality to deal
with. The most urgent problems OF
repair are wood and iron. The town
is virtually bare of wood in any
shape, and the country has no iron.
Building stone probably could be
brought down from the hills, but no
move has been taken to have this
done.
A small harbor was begun before
the war, although all experts were
put on board ships by lighters. In nor
NAL times a few ships would anchor
off the city and take on board some
10000 tons of barley and perhaps
half as much wheat each year. The

barley was of excellent quality and
was sent largely to England for the
manufacture of whisky. The other ex-
ports consisted chiefly of olive oil and
native pottery.
GAIA is a place of unusual histori-
cal interest. On the east is shown a
place which the natives say is the
tomb of Samson. From the fifth to
the twelfth century the city was an
Episcopal see of the Latin church.
Hashem, an ancestor of Mahomet, is
buried there.
