 You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidneY region begin drinking lots of water. Also get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice. combined with lithia. and is intended to flush clogged kid- neys and help stimulate them to activ- ity. It also helps neutralize the acids in the urine so they no longer irritate. thus helping to relieve bladder dis orders.
 lad Salts is inexpensive; makes delightful effervescent lithia water drink which everybody should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean.

PASTURES ESSENTIAL FOR HOGS
Grass and Forage Cuts Grain Require
 menis to Minimum.

1reen pastures for forage crops are essential to the economical production or pork in Arkansas" says T. Roy Reid, live stock specialist of the Ex- tension Service of the University of Arkansas College of Agriculture Swine growers by using pastures can reduce the required amount of grain feeds to minimum and still keep the hogs thrifty, in his opinion.
 Further than the saving of grain leeds, the growing of pastures or for age crops and grazing them down with hogs, maintains and increases soil fer tlllty. This is a profitable way in which to build up run down lands.
 Permanent pastures furnish good grazing for hogs in the spring and ear ly summer while the grass is tender. Bermuda grass, lespedeza and some other native grasses or legumes are valuable pastures for both cattle and swine. These grasses may become coarse and stubby and unfit for hog grazing in the fall. In such case we have coWpeas, soy beans, peanuts or velvet beans-all important forage crops which can be grown under prac- tically all conditions in this state.
 An acre of good pasture crop will take care of SOW and her litter. The carrying capacity of forage crops for summer and fall use with hogs is about 10 to 15 shoats per acre for a month to three months. The time will vary with the crop. ,..
 Now is the time to plan for and pre- pare to plant forage crops for summer and fall use, advises MT. Reid.

 But MT. Jarr had slipped away un. | observed, and when he reached tn, i office an unfortunate solicitor for sick fund association just escaped as sault at his hands when he ap- preached him and started to tall 1 shop.
 Mrs. Jarr kissed her husband agair as she drew him into the semi dark ness of the hall. This surplusage of wifey affection may be announced when it is explained that after kiss l ing MT. Jarr again she whispered tensley, 'Why didn't you telephone me you were bringing company home for supper?"
 MT. Jarr might have excused him. self by saying he didn't know he was bringing company home for sup per, but that the company had coolly come along without an invitation.
 Well. it's a good thing it is not somebody I care about" said Mrs. Jarr, seeing her husband made no defense. Its only that man Dinks- ton. and he'll be glad enough to have a cold supper."A
 Well. how is the poetry business since I saw you last?" asked MT. Jarr, as he rejoined his guest.
 q woo the muse but seldom now; have gone in for histrionics-the silent drama-snce I saw you last many months ago, and after we have dined I will tell you all"
 And now" he said, when the feast was over and he and his host and l fha Git fiV1cr room, would you believe it, but ap- pendicitis drove me to the silent drama?
 s Yes" Mir. Dinkston continued, Tt was appendicitis that drove me to the silent drama. I think that Uncle Toms Cabin and 'Foust' are the only two dramas of the old school that have survived the moving picture tidal wave. Just as Uncle Toms Cabin Siberian bloodhounds, just so must Faust be produced with B worth of fire works every performance and the eloating, diabolical laughter of Me- phisto. And did you know that the diabolicaf, gloating laugh, such as Mephisto indulges in at the frallty or mankind, comes from the stomach, the pit of the stomach?"
 "Yes, yesr cried MT. and Mrs. Jarr in unison. GO on!''
 Laughing diabolically on one night stands, where I can assure you a laughing hyena would find nothing to incite his visibility, has dreadful effect upon the gastric system-that and the lack of edible food in the so- called hotels of the provincial thea trical circuits wrought the ruin. And it was these gloating laughs upon an irritated and empty stomach that brought on appendicitis, and when the operation was over found to my dis may that Metphisto's occupation was gone. No more was I able to laugh diabolically, and the show closed and I secured an engagement in moving pictures"

GIFTS FOR WOMEN

What type of present most appeals to the feminine heart? What dainty little gift will please a woman most Handkerchiefs, silk stockings and gloves have been showered upon her every year. What can one give her which will 'be different" and indi- vidual?
 The shops are teeming with ideas at this season of the year. Every counter is laden with artistic and an propriate gifts, and yet, will they fit "Her"-this particular lady whom you wish to please?
 If she is young and goes to school or to business she will be pleased with fascinating necklace with ear rings to match. They are especially Oriental and fantastic as to color and design this year. If she dances she will rave over pair of sparkling rhinestone buckles for her slippers or colorful ostrich fan. There are also attractive dance bags, all fitted out with mirror, powder puff and handkerchief.
 If she is an at home girl or young matron she will be delighted with a boudoir or library lamp. One cannot have too many sofa pillows. Tea caddies in Dutch silver also make an attractive gift. chocolate set is another gift every woman appre- ciates.
 Any woman who curls her own hair will be delighted with an cleo tric curling iron. The bobbed-bair girl will adore the flapper comb in an effective pink or blue leather ease charmingly hand decorated. For the matron Or elderly woman there are tortoise combs in fascinating Oriental designs.
 Another present which the ayera ge woman appreciates highly is nice stationery. A large box of lavender or white linen with ones monogram is always treasured by the truly feminine woman. Perfume also ap- peals to her: For the woman who goes out with her husband or es- cort a great deal, a triple vanity case containing mirror, powder puff and lip-stick makes an attractive gift. One very artistic case in the shops is made of brass and has a stunningly hand decorated covep
 Opera glasses are unusually pretty this year and the woman who goes to the theatre frequently will be charmed with them. A silk umbrella is always delightful and useful gift. Beaded bags. are still in vogue and the leather overnight bag is as popular as ever.
 For. the older woman a corduroy lounging robe is like a gift from Heaven. The business girl who likes to rest in comfortable, loose clothes also appreciates these robes. Sweat CTS and jacquettes for the house make delightful presents. Since so many velvet dresses are in vogue. large white lace collars have become popular and these collars make ideal gifts.
 Both the very young girl and the older woman appreciates a gift of flowers on Christmas morning. Cut flowers fill the maiden's heart with joy and the older woman prefers as a rule, a potted fern, stately palm or

FILM FABLES
By DON ALLEN

Once Upon a Time there was a Boy who, all during his School Days. was the Butt of All Jokes simply because he could Look both to the Northwest and the Southwest at Ope and the Same Time.
 In Fact, he was so Cross-Eyed that You, Couldn't Tell whether he was Looking Where he was Going or Co., inC Where He Was Looking. After Weathering the Gales of Youth and Fighting His Way through School, the Boy started out Seeking a Job. but Everywhere he Applied they Kept their Fingers Crossed and their Thumbs Down and he was about as Far Away from being able to Earn an Honest Livelihood as we are from Prohibition.
 He had Almost Decided to take the Easiest Way and had gathered in the latest Quotation on Cyanide of Potas- sium in Carload Lots when Movie Director saw Them Eyes.
 And Right Then and There a Ca reer was Started. AS Soon as he Appeared on the Screen he was ac- claimed Marvel and Flew High on Low Comedy. After a Very Short While he became so Popular that someone wrote a song and dedicated it to him. They called it: You're Cross, Your Eyes Have Told Me So!'
 Moral: A Good Disposition is a Fine Asset, but Sometimes 1t pays to be Cross-(Eyed).

FORGET THE PAST
pv sopHIE IRENE LOEB

Her hair was white and her mlen was sorrowful.
 Her whole life was one of sadness. In truth, she had seen little of glad ness in her life as she had played it. And the Angel of the End noVered near
 As this woman looked back.
 She drew her loved ones about her And told them her story.
 Somewhere in the distant past Things had happened that had pained. And she had not forgotten through all the years,
 Although they were dead and buried And could do no more harm. - Yet she let them hang over her life, And would not shut them out. And she had cultivated this trait Of tenacity
 Of that which was forever gone. She formed the habit, the habit 'ot The things alive that were indeed Forgetting life as it confronted her. "The one thing that kills
 Hope in the human and stiles the spirit is
 To keep harboring in your heart The thing that has gone and cannot be changed. When a thing is dead
 No amount of fretting and fuming and signing.
 -ANill ever alter it bit.
 Put it behind you; cut it off as with a knife,
 And face the future of newer mat ters
 That are alive with life.
 The one thing that will keep the heart singing with youth
 Is forgetting the past that gives concern.
 For it is like leaving wound open And putting salt upon 1t to keep fresh.
 Forget the past;
 Bury it-the thing that wounds and hurts
 And cannot be altered
 And live your life in the present and in the future.
 This is wisdom" Towering begonia which she may care for all the year.
