 Bristow scraped his chair back on the polished floor.

 Morton had told everything now that he had sworn not to reveal, and he was agonizedly wondering whether he had been wise or merely treach- erous.
 A slow, crestfallen flush spread over Bristow's face. Higgins was right; he had muddled.
 He nodded at Norton. When do you get in touch with them again?"
 II ought to be doing it now.''
 Bristow ignored the hint of restless ness.
 How did Juarez Charlie happen to be there?" He wanted all the links in the chain.
 T don't know that, but he was. And they have plenty of money. Oh, come to think of it, he said that he rode down here last night. There was something about a hat--a hat that had been bought by Mir. Ranger and then exchanged by Miss Copley for one that was to be sent here. That gave him the clue.'

DEMAND FOR SEAL
SKIN FURS SLUMP
UNCLE SAM FIND THEM DRUG
IN THE MARKET AT THIR-
TY DOLLARS APIECE.

The United States government is
losing substantial sums of money be-
cause American women have changed
their fashion in furs and are showing
less interest in sealskinS Secretary
Hoover says.
Moreover, the government has IN
stock, some 10000 fur pelts which
may have to be held for considerable
period before disposing of them. The
British, Japanese and Russian gov
ernments also, the secretary declared
were facing losses a sa result of the
change in style.
The government Mr.. Hoover ex-
planned has practically a monopoly
on seal fur productions by reason OF
its rookeries. In recent years, as many
as $4,000 or $4,000 seal skins have
been taken. This years take, which
was cut down to $4,000 when the de-
preston appeared, was put on the
market some time ago, with skins Of
fered for sale at $50 apiece.
About the 1000 skins were sold and
then the demand decreased. The pelts
will keep and Mr.. Hoover explained
that the government had put them IN
storage.
1t also looks like hard winter for
the foxes on the Alaskan islands in
the rearing of which the government
has a profitable sideline. Hitherto,
they have been fed on the meat from
the dead seals, have waXed fat and
furry from it, and have developed
coats which are even more valuable
than the seal skin.

CALHOUN COUNTY KHAN
GIVES A FUND OF $1,000
In Full Regalia Marched Into Hall at

Organization.

ARLINGTON, Ga.-The first pub

band of "A in full regalia marched in
10 the Morgan high school just before
the curtain rose for the first act in a
play that was being presented in the
auditorium for the benefit of the Nor

marched into the building, handed a
letter containing SO to Dr. Hendry,
an officer of the PIT A., without say
ing a word, and stood at the foot of
the stage while the letter was read
70 the audience.
The letter stated that this the Thorn
as A. Edison khan, No. 1888, endorsed
what the Parent-Teacher Association
was doing, and wanted to contribute
$40 to the cause. That they stood for
separation of church and state, white
supremacy and better schools. The
letter also stated that this khan was
composed OF 10 members from the
towns of Arlington, Morgan, Leary
and Edison in Calhoun county.

BIG INCREASE IN
USE OF GRAPE WINE
SIX GALLONS CONSUMED FOR
EVERY CHICAGOAN. GREAT
Err INCREASES ELSEWHERE.

CHICAGO.-Six gallons of wine
grape juice for every man, woman
and child in Chicago was made in this
city during the 1928 grape season, &C
cording to careful estimates made by
grape dealers. The total manufactured
wine reaches 100000 gallons, with
market value of $58,O00,0O0. Federal
government statistics show the 1923
crop of grapes was the largest ever
grown in the United States.
Chicagoans consume much wine,
but the per capita consumption is
greatly exceeded by Gary, Ind, and
other towns in the Calumet region,
where the wine made this season is
nearly 20 gallons for each person.
Purchases of grapes in Chicago
have doubled in the last two years,
running this year to 1880 carloads,
of which California furnished the
greater part-7,588 cars, to be exact,
as against 1,13O cars from the neigh

Too much rich food forms acids which
excite and overwork the kidneys in
their efforts to filter it from the system.
Flush the kidneys occasionally to re-
lieve them like you relieve the bowels,
removing acids, waste and poison, else
you may feel dull misery in the kid

sick headache, dizziness, the stomach
sours. tongue IS coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment, the channels often get irri-
tated, obliging one to get up two or
three times during the night.
To help neutralize these irritating
acids and flush off the body's urinons
waste, begin drinking water. Also get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy, take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys may then
act fine and bladder disorders disappear
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM

for years to help clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys and stop bladder irri-
tation. Jad Salts is inexpensive and
makes delightful effervescent lithia-

vent serious kidney and bladder dis

20 MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF COTTON DESTROYED

chemists and psychologists, when
the government must take more dras-
tic measures in its fight against the
boil weevil, if for no other reason than
that the cotton which the south has
sold to foreign nations has added bill
lions Of dollars to the wealth of this
country, and helped to keep the bal
ance of trade in our favor.
The attitude of the south is that the
problem is a national one, first, and
that the federal government should do
its utmost to solve it by launching a
national campaign against the pest.
One of the remedies suggested is to
stop planting cotton for a year and
thus starve the insect. But this would
precipitate the world famine in cotton,
which now looms in the ofing. Be-
sides, it would involve the appropria-
ton OF a billion dollars by the states
and the federal government to reim-
burse the cotton growers for the loss
es they would sustain if this radical
measure were adopted. And that the
country would stand for" such a
huge expenditure, when it is making

LIES AND STATISTICS
WORK BOTH WAYS
TRIES TO PROVE HIGH RAIL
WAY CHARGES HAVE MOTH
ING TO DO WITH FARMERS.

1t was a wise man who first drew
up the scale, lies, damned lies and
statistics. Julius Kruttschnitt, of the
Southern Pacific, has given an inter-
viewer some statistics to prove that
high railway charges have nothing to
do with agricultural distress, says the
New Republic The farmer, he tries
to prove, would get only an 8 per
cent increase in the value of his prod
ucts if the railways returned to him
every cent they collect for hauling his
goods. That rs a fact which can be
proved by government Statistics The
transportation revenue from agricul-
tural products in 1922 was $71S973,-
000 the total value of farm crops was
SIS, 961 100000. Mr.. Kruttschnitt thinks
that with these figures given simple
arithmetic will do the rest 1t might
if every bushel of wheat, corn, potato
toes, every ton of hay, silage, cotton
and the rest were actually carried by
the railway companies. The fact is
that only a fraction of the crops is
actually carried by the railways, at a
of its value nearer rs than
8. Twenty-Five per cent may not be an
excessive charge in view of the costs
excessive charge i'll view of the costs
of transportation. That is no justif-
cation for making it over into 8 per
cent by the use of a statistical hocus
pocus.
