have had the honor of entertaining
the supreme secretary of the order,
when on March he addressed large
audience at their hall. and they are
expecting the state deputy supreme

FREE TUBERCULOSIS
CLINIC HERE SOON
Will Be Held in State Laboratory
Building on Friday, Feb. "a.

A free tuberculosis clinic provided
by funds realized from the sale of
Christmas seals last December in Es-
Gambia county, is to be held at Pensa-
sacola in the state laboratory build
ing Friday, Feb. "a In the morning
negroes will be examined and whites
in the afternoon.
These two clinics will mark one OF
the stops of the travelling clinic of the
Florida Public Health association,
which expects to have one or more in
every county of the state as rapidly
as they can be reached.
According to Mrs. Joseph Gallagher.
who was local chairman for the seal
sale here last year, these clinics are
resulting in great value to many who
for the first time learn they have tu-
berculosis. The great value of the
clinic, she says, is that many who are
not sick enough, they think, to go to
a doctor, go because friends are also
going. These are usually not so badly
infected but that they can readily and
comparatively easily effect cures.

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sulphur
,Recips and Nobody will Know.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother 8
time. She used 1t to keep her hair
beautifully dark. glossy and attractive.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, i'm
proved by the addition Of other ingred-
tents, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to
the hair.
A welf-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t has

MEAT CAUSE OF
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys If Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers.

If you must have your meat every
day eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally, says noted
authority who tells US that meat
forms uric acid which almost par
alyzes the kidneys in their efforts to
expel it from the blood. They become
sluggish and weaken then you suffer
with a dull misery in the kidney re-
gion, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine gets cloudy full of
sediment, the channels often get sore
and irritated. obliging you to seek re-
lief two or three times during the
night
To neutralize these Irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here; take a tablespoon in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
| been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys. also to
neutralize the acids in the urine, so il
! no longer irritates, thus ending biad-
| der weakness.

vescent Whitewater drink.-Adver-
