DOG GONE, NO MONEY

z. A. Jones OF EtOWah county can
not collect $50 for the death of his
dog. which was found dead near the
tracks of the Nashville. Chattanooga
and St. Louis railroad. The judge
ment of the Etowah circuit court
was reversed by the supreme court
Thursday on the ground that the
trial court should have given the
affirmative charge for the defense.
Jones sued for $1,000 contending that
the railroad did not use diligence
and that the dogs death resulted
from the operation of locomotive
at speed greater than is permitted
by city ordinances. The supreme
court said. under the evidence. the
railroad should not have received the
verdict.

ACID IN STOMACH
SOURS THE FOOD
Says EXCESS OF Hydrochloric Acid is
Canse of Indi-
= gestion

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion are
nearly always due to acidity-acid
stomach-and not, as most folks be-
lieve, from lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermenta-
ton; then our meals sour like garbage
in can, forming acrid fluids and
gases. which initiate the stomach like
a toy balloon. When then get that
heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we
eructate sour food, belch gas or have
heartburn, f1atulence, water-brash or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, while it is
effervescing, and furthermore, to con-
tinue this for one week. While relief
often follows the first dose, it is i'm
portant to neutrahze the acidity. re-
move the gas-making mass, start the
liver. stimulate the kidneys, and thus
promote a free flow of pure digestive
juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
Juice combined with iithia and sodi-
am phosphate. This harmless salts is
med by thousands of stomach suf-
xerers with excellent results.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-American peo-

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GREY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sulphur
Recipe and Nobody Will
Know

The use of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair. to its ma
tural color dates back to grandmoth-
er's time. She used 1t to keep her
hair beautifully dark, glossy and at
tractive. Whenever her hair took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. r..,
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of- date, Nowadays by asking at
any drug store for bottle of "Wyeths
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition of other in
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair. o.,
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell IT has
been applied. You simply dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one,
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.

TUNNELS MENACE
CREWS OF TRAINS
Many Factors Make Passages
PerilOuS For Men in Locomotives

/ Washington, Aug. 21.-If you chaft
and choke over the heat fumes en-
tering your railway car the next time
you go through tunnel, think OF
the men in the engine cab and be
happy. For, says the bureau Of
mines, the heat to which trainmer
are subjected not only ranges as high
as 1876 degrees, but the smoke and
| m oisture-laden atmosphere is often
filled with deadly carbon monoxide
gas.
The bureau recently conducted a
series of tests in railroad tunnels In
connection with Investigation into ac-
cident causes. Out of 40 tunnel trips
whose duration ranged from 4 " to rs
minutes, it was found that carbon
monoxide was present in the air in "a
cases. Hot exhaust gases from the
engines were another source of dan
ger. 49, .l. 81.
Exhaustion Of train crews due to ex-
posture to atmospheres containing
carbon monoxide, or to exceedingly
high Temperatures saturated with
moisture, was said undoubtedly to
have been the cause of many acct
dents. ~.
Results of physiological tests over
periods of ten minutes in engine cabs
showed that the conditions there
might be severe enough to cause as
phyxiationlor exhaustionin periods of
20 minutes, In case an engine became
stalled in a tunnel.
