Quart of Water
Cleans Kidneys
Take a Little Salts If Your Back
Hurts, or Bladder is
Troubling You

No man or woman can make mis-
take by flushing the kidneys OCCASION
ally. saws a well-known authority. Eat
ing too much rich food creates acids,
which excite the kidneys. They become
overworked from the strain, get slug
gish and fail to filter the waste and
poisons from the blood. Then we get
sick. Rheumatism, headaches. liver
trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
1essness and urinary disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive. full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, begin
drinking a quart of water each day,
also get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take tablespoon
full in a glass of water before breakfast,
and in few days your kidneys may act
fine
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for years to flush and stimulate the
kidneys; also to help neutralize the
acids in the system, so they no longer
cause irritation, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
lad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia- water drink
which everyone should take now and
then to help keep the kidneys clean
and active and the blood pure, thereby
often avoiding serious kidney complica-
tons. By all means have your physi-
clan examine your kidneys at least
twice year.

LOCAL TAXES HIGHER.

But federal taxes are the least OF
your worries.
Municipal, county and state taxes
they get your money
Federal taxes, at least the direct
ones. have been going down, but local
taxes have set new altitude RECORDS
in all parts of the country.
Census bureau show that since 1912
state taxes have increased 102 per
cent county taxes 142 per cent and
city taxes so per cent.
Principal reason for this increase is
in the sale Of bonds. Local and state
governments have trebled their bond
ed Indebtedness since 1912.
1t is SO easy to finance a public
project by bond issue. But every build,
ing that way is paid for twice-paid
for once in bond interest, once IN re-
firing the principal.

Georgia Apple Growers
Are Developing Industry
Firm, Juicy and Delicious, They Are
Superior to Western Product.


Apple growers in Georgia are
rapidly developing the industry on
large scale, packing, grading
and polishing houses having been
constructed in many orchards, &C
cording to Charles R. Porter, extern
sive grower of Esom Hill, Ga, who
assisted in arrangements for the re-
cent observance of National Apple
Week. Mr.. Porter said that apple
week helped to place Georgia apples
before the public this year as it has
never done before and showed to a
great extent what the industry was
actually doing.
Mr.. Porter declared that Georgia
produces apples far superior to the
western apple, pointing out that eli
mate conditions in north Georgia are
ideal for the production OF this particu-
lar fruit.
These Georgia apples are firm, free
OF specs, juicy and have delicious
flavor" said Mr. Porter Western ap-
pies are large and good to look at, but
when the north Georgia apple is Sc
lected and polished properly there is
nothing prettier and they are not
mealy like western apples"
Mr.. Porter contends that the popu-
larity of western apples in past years
has been largely due to efficient mark
citing, which included proper polish
ing, grading and packing the fruit.
Wherever the Georgia apples, prop
erly handled, have been sold consum-
ers are quick to see the superiority
of the home product
