QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take glass of Salts before breakfast
II your Back hurts or Bladder
is troubling you.

No man or woman who eats meat regu.
larly can make mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, Gays well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites 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, 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 sedi-
ment, irregular of passage or attended by
a sensation of scalding, 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 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 30 it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithIa.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.

PRODUCE IF YOU
WOULD GET PROFITS

Every now and then letter comes
from some farmer who is discouraged
with the outlook, and who is thinking
OF sharply cutting down his produc,
ton of this or that. One man thinks
farmers should cut down the wheat
crop; another can see only loss in
cattle feeding; another is afraid to
take any chances on hogs.
Now, the Southern Agriculturist is
about the last paper in the world to
advise any man to produce "all he
can of everything he can" without
taking thought as to what he is going
to do with it and what he is going to
get out of it when he has produced it;
but it does feel very confident that
this is no time willfully TO rastr::2t
production. The world neels food
still, and is likely to need about ell
it can get for some years to come. It

LIFTING SOUTH CAROLINA

Dearborn Independent.
Two years ago the general assem-

the Palmetto state out of the mud,

A REVOLUTION IN
SOCIAL AFFAIRS

With the year 1920 comes the &C.
tual beginning of a revolution in So
cial affairs. There have been threats
of reform and change in many social
customs, and it has been on the tapis
many times to do away with several
exceeding foolish and awkward cere-
monies in vogue between the refined
members of what is gracefully called
society. And there has been no ha-
bit more senseless than that of a gen.
tleman removing his hat upon every
meeting with a female acquaintance.
Heaven only knows where such stu
pid and such an awkward act received
it's origin. It has arbitrarily controll-
ed the men and was supposed to rank
as mark of the gentleman for as
many years back as history extends,
despite the fact that it has caused
many colds and has hustled many
men into their graves.
And now it is said that influenza is
often caused by exposing the bare
head to the cool breezes by lifting the
hat when meeting a female. and it
has been decided to do away with this
SORT Of thing, and the sensible and
simple substitute that prevails in ORR
entail countries is to be adopted. The

FRENCH BLAMES US
FOR CURRENCY ILLS

Paris Feb. 10.-The exchange
roblem and the depreciation of the
ranc seem to be the leading topics
of conversation in Paris. Three
months ago these subjects were much
discussed by business men and the
ress and begun to take interest in
them; now the man in the street is
wrestling with their mysteries under
the sudden stimulus Of the know
ledge that they are closely connected
with the high cost of living. 1t is q
peculiar trait of the French that they
must always find a reason for any
tate of affairs, and that if that
tate of affairs be unpleasant the rea-
son they find throws the blame upon
some one else. Accordingly, the mass
of public opinion has accepted the
theory that the depreciation of the
franc and the evils resulting from it
are all the fault of the United States.
Last Novemberit was the popula
thing to say that the fall in value Of
French money was due to "specu!2
tion," although no ne seemed {

This is no time for plunging of
any kind; but it is time for sound,
careful, thoughtful fafming-for the
building up of the soil, the growing
of good crops, the broding and feed
ing of good live stock. The farmer
who sticks to the paths of good farm
ing need not be afraid to go as far
forward as he can, or have any hest
fancy about producing all he can.

ROBERT TODD LINCOLN
Dearborn Independent.

Dearborn Independent.
I Lincoln's son still lives, link with
the past. But because he is Lincoln's
son he has always with deliberation
and consistency kept himself outside
the wide circle of light which shines
around his fathers name. Others
have written for us the life of Lin
coin and others have interpreted his
spirit but some have always felt
that Robert Lincoln knew his father
best, because he was a growing boy
when his father was an obscure Illi-
nois lawyer. Lincoln junior was born
in 1843, when Abraham Lincoln was
a comparatively young man of 81,
and had been a practicing lawyer on
ly six years, and married man one
year. TheGson was Is years old when
his father made the afterwards
famous "house divided against itself"
speech. He was II years old when
the Cooper Union. speech was made.
He followed his fathers footsteps in
the law, but by ar easier path, go
ing to Harvard law school. He left
his studies to serve as captain on
the staff of Gen. Grant, and after
the war resumed his law studies, be-
ing admitted to the bar two years af-
ter his father was assassinated. Once
he was mentioned for the presiden-
cy,' but resolutely declined. He has
never traded on his name or re-!
lationship. However, he has served
several presidential appointments,
once as secretary of war and once as
minister to Great Britain. For thirty
years he has been associated with the
Pullman company.
Whether he has prepared his recol-
lections of his father to be published
posthumously is not known. The
world would be welcome a picture Of
the great liberator as he appeared to
his growing son However, to re-
quest for an interview Mr.. Lincoln
he replied, "I appreciate the kind
ness of the request, but you will ex-
cuse me from breaking away from
my we'll established habit" Mr.. Lin
coin lives in Washington.

!. GOSSIP AND GLEANINGS

An enthusiastic exchange from
east of the river says that only one
democratic officer, a clerk of
courts down that way, has been
reelected in the whole state. Of
course, that is not true. Miss Nina
Duryea has been reelected county
superintendent of schools in this
county. Not word could be or
was said against her republican
opponent, but Miss Duryea SERVED
only one term, the voters consid-
cred that that term had been eff
cient, Aend they went to the polls
and unhesitatingly voted for her.
oto
It was a pity that that grand
old democrat, Champ Clark of
Missouri, should be defeated for
reelection to congress. He has
been in congress nearly twenty
terms, just missed the presidency
by scratch, and is in every way
a noble figure in our political life.
Joe Cannon, who was elected from
Illinois for the twenty-third time,
will feel lonesome in Washington
without Champ Clark, his demo-
cratic neighbor and friend. The
law ought to be changed by abol-
fishing congressional elections in
certain districts under certain cir
cumstances, so that Heroes like
Uncle Joe Cannon and Chamn
Clark could stay in congress as
long as they lived.
| o--o
That woman who was elected to
congress as a republican from
Oklahoma and that other republi-
can who was elected from Texas
must both have been political ac.
cidents. Likely the nominations
went begging and the republicans
