IF KIDNY,j AMI
BLADDER BOTHER
Take glass Of Salts to flush out your
Kidneys and neutralize irri-
tating acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and infame,
causing burning, scalding sensation, or
setting up All irritation at the neck of
the bladder, obliging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
The sufferer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call 1t,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and some
times very painful, this is really one of
the most simple ailments to overcome.
Get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from your pharmacist and take a table
spoonful in glass of water before
breakfast, continue this for two or three
days. This will neutralize the acids in
the urine so Il no longer is source of
irritation to the bladder and urinary or
gans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splen-
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever
Here you have pleasant, effervescent
Whitewater drink, which quickly relieves
bladder trouble

"Use What You Get"
go after every cent you can get, -
was the advice of one of the officials.
Get million if you can, but take
$4,000 if that is all that is award
ed you. Prepare to take advantage of
the state highway money if this bill
passes this year 1t is the opinion of
engineers that funds will be available
just about as fast as roads can posi-
bly, be constructed. But whatever
else you do, don't turn down your
apportionment. This will put your
county in bad with the national and
state officials. The counties that use
their appointments to the best ad-
vantage-taking the interest of the
state, the federal government as well
as the county itself into consideration
are the counties that will build the
greatest mileage of roads and build
them FIRST. 1t is these counties that
will reap the greatest financial bene-
fit from their investments.
Georgia is destined to lead the
country in road building from now
on" he continued. Farm values are
by leaps and bounds all over
the states. Those counties that have
not voted bonds are being stunned
by the buyers of farm lands that are
flocking into the state. These non
bend voting counties are getting un-
savory regulations. On the other
hand counties that are putting forth
the greatest efforts are the counties
that are given preference by buy
ers. "
Thursday, up at the state capitol
will see one great, grand,
glorious scramble for federal funds.
The counties are sending their best

appropriated in the state this year,

Billion Next Year

department at Washington seems to
indicate that congress will appropri-

600 was appropriated and all of this
has been absorbed and it has not
nearly covered the demands
1t is said that another apportion-
ment will be made in February, 1920.
It is hoped that Georgia's share of
this apportionment will be two or
three times greater than the 1919 APP
portionments.

Speakers Sore Throat.

"Clergyman's sore throat" is, accord
ing to DR.. John J. Levbarg of New
York, due to an incorrect method Of
breathing, which causes the speaker
or singer to use his muscles incorrectly
and thus overtax the throat. The
proper way to breathe is to use the
diaphragm and the lower ribs, keep
ing the upper chest full of air.
