No matter which way the decision

that the public will be the goat!
Under the order OF Judge George

directed against the constitutionality
of the ten per cent tax on retail cigar
and cigarette sales collection of the tax
will proceed until the decision OF the
Georgia supreme court.
This means that the smoking public
must pay the tax and that the money
will be impounded, pending decision,
or that the contesting dealers must
give bond for the amount. Stamps
will be affixed to all sales, and where
the dealers pay for the stamps they
will be given a receipt. This receipt
will be redeemed if the fight against
the law proves successful.
Where does the public come in?
That question is being asked on
every side. The dealer will be re-

Drink Water to
Help Wash Out
Kidney Poison
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You, Begin
Taking Salts

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore don't get scared and pro-
coed to load your stomach with a lot of
drugs that excite the kidneys and irri-
tate the entire urinary tract. Keep
your kidneys clean like you keep your
bowels clean, by flushing them with a
mild, harmless salts which helps to re-
move the body's urinous waste and slim
ulates them to their normal activity.
The function of the kidneys is to filter
the blood In "a hours they strain from
it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we
can readily understand the vital impor-
lance of keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of good water-you can't
drink too much; also get from any phar-
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts /;
take tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast each morning for a
few days and your kidneys may then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has been
used for years to help clean and stimu-
late clogged kidneys; also to neutralize
the acids in the system so they are. no
longer a source of irritation, thus often
relieving bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; can not in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink, which everyone
should take now and then to help keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this; also keep up the water drinking,
and no doubt you will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and'back-
ache. By all means have your phy:si-
clan examine your kidneys at least twice
a wear.

Bees Increase Yields
Of Apples and Peaches
Farm School Experiments Show Bene-
fetal Cooperation Bees and Fruit

Farm School Experiments Show Bene-
fetal Cooperation Bees and Fruit.
An increase of 20 per cent in the
yield of peaches and an increase of
from 20 to 100 per cent. in the apple
crop OF the orchards of the National
Farm School, Farm School, Pa, has
been attributed, for the most part, di-
rectly to the recent establishment of a
department of bee keeping in that in
stitution.
THE beneficial cooperation between
bees and fruit is not sufficiently ap-
preciated" said Prof. SCHNEIDER, in
charge OF the bee keeping Of apicul-
ture, department of the National
Farm School, after summarizing his ex-
periments of covering portions of trees
and fields of buckwheat with nets to
prevent the bees from fertlizing the
flowers. Prof. Schneider is of the
opinion that the apple crop of the
country could be increased by 10000
900 bushels, the peach crop by 9,000,-
900 bushels and the buckwheat crop
by 100000 bushels, besides the extra
profits in honey, if fruit men and farm
ers would intelligently utilize the la
bors of bees.
