FROM THE SHOULDER

The Palm Beach Post talks straight
from the shoulder when it says:
eff the moral imbeciles who are en-
gagged in the whisky business have any
consciousness of the trouble they are
breeding for themselves, they show no
sign of it. They are not of the type
or class that would show concern, for
they are utterly irresponsible. No
sane and moral man would engage now
in the liquor business, outlawed by the
fundamental law of the nation and up
held by supreme court decisions.
They are making trouble for more
than themselves, for they are making
trouble for every citizen and to a de-
gree almost unparalleled. What the
outcome will be is as certain as that
there is a God in heaven. Men who
now walk the streets in confidence and
security and who are accepted In
gatherings of good citizens despite
their unlawful occupations will sooner
or later be found hanging from the
limbs of trees as rapists and as other
vile creatures are hanged.
"There are more decent, law-abiding
people in Florida than there are boot
Ileggers and drunkards. Bootleggers
and drunkards do appear to have the
upper hand in several Florida COM
nunities just now; greed for money
and the vice of drunkenness have
broken down the moral stamina of a
goodly number of otherwise decent
rien, and bad company has corrupted
good manners, but conditions will get
just so bad and then they will get
Ibetter-better at whatever cost.
"St. Lucie county has been notorious
as bootleggers' headquarters. But
that county has finally been aroused
to action, not the best kind of action,
but the only kind that may prove eff
fective. A law and order league ap-
pears to be in process of organization

lily weak kneeded church members and
dominated by church hypocrites who

through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment to sustain
the body.
It is the function of the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form of urine,
but in many instances the bowels Gre
ate more toxins and impurities that
the kidneys can eliminate, then the
blood uses the skin pores as the next
best means OF getting rid of these
impurities which often break out all
over the skin in the form Of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin of
these eruptions. says a noted author
fly, is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces of Jad Salts and take q
tablespoonful in a glass of hot water
each morning before breakfast for one
week This will prevent the forma-
tion of toxins in the bowels. It also
stimulates the kidneys to normal ac-
tivity, thus coaxing them to filter the
blood OF impurities and clearing the
skin Of pimples.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive, harmless
