Clean Kidneys
By Drinking
Lots of Water
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys if
Bladder Rothers or
Back Hurts

Eating too much rich food may pro-
duce kidney trouble in some form, says
a well-known authority because the
acids created excite the kidneys. Then
they become oVerworked, get sluggish,
clog UP and cause all sorts of distress,
particularly backache and misery in the
Kidney region, rheumatic twiRges, severe
headaches, acid stomach, constipation,
torpid liver, sleeplessness. bladder and
urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
news aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, begin drinking lots of good
water and also get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for 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
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them TO activity; also to neutralize the
acids in the system so that they no
longer irritate, thus often relieving blad-
der disorders.
lad Salts can not injure anyone;
makes a delightful 'effervescent lithia-
water drink which millions Of men and
women take now andsthen to help keep
the kidneys and urinary organs clean,
thus often avoiding serious kidney dis
orders. BY all means have your physi-
clan examine your kidneys at least twice
\ year. 9

JOE JAcKsON'S MOTHER
BELIEVES I'm HER BOY

bah player"
Mrs Jackson has followed the
proceedings Of the suit in Mil
wauEee eagerly.
Mrs. jackson has not seen her
son since last November, when
he was in the city. He did not
mention theNworld series Of 1919
in which it is alleged that he and
others threw" several games but
she has heard him discuss the
question before. She has always
believed firmly in the innocence
of her son.
Il had letter from Joe Just
before he and his wife left from
Americus," she said. HE prom
ised to let me hear and have
been looking for letter and also
watching the papers. But 1
haven't heard anything today"
Mrs. Jackson said her eldest
son, who proved a sensation in or
ganized baseball, was born at Mu-
yaney's Shoals, about II miles
above the city in Greenville coun-
ty,
1t has been published that he
was born in Pickens and at Pelzer
and other places but he was born
in this county. He is now in
his 99th year"
Stepping inside the house Mrs.
Jackson called attention to a large
group picture of the Chicago
White Sox, Worlds Champion of
1919.
Il hate to look at Comisky af-
ter the way he has done" she
said, Joe helped pull them out OF
a hole and practically made
them. Then they wanted to deny
the contract he had with them"
Continuing her discussion of
the picture she said; THAT is
Harry Grabinger there at the top
ON the left. He is the one who
stopped over in Savannah to get
Joe to sign the contract. He was
on his way to Florida.
II am sure Joe is innocent. /
don't see how any one could think
otherwise if they kept up with his
record in those games. l believe
he is innocent and / feel sure
those who don't think SO now
will find it out some day!' ~

GREENvILLE, S. c., February
g., Il don't believe Joe did anything
wrong. l know he was raised hon
est and he couldn't do the things
they accusea-him of. Anyway, his
record in the series shows that he
did his best
In those words, Mrs. Martha
jackson, mother of Joe jackson,
former White sox outfielder and
champion batsman of the major
leagues proved the truth of those
immortal lines written by Kipling
relatives to mother love.
Standing in the door of her
home at No. 6 Mason street, West
Greenville, Mrs. Jackson talked
freely of her sons connection
with baseball, tracing Joe's career
from the time he played hockey,
from school until the more recent
suit was brought in Milwaukee to
make the Chicago club pay the
$1S,500 claimed to be due UNI
der the unexpired contract.
Il saw the contract when it
was signed" Mrs. jackson said.
Harry Grabinger, secretary of
the White Sox, came to Savannah
and the contract was signed on a
/ Sunday morning in the home of
my daughter | understand Mr..
Grabinger says he can't remem-
Der about when this contract was
signed and where. He could re-

"a. The shortage in man power
in Sumter county acn be overcome
by bringing into the county practi-
cal farmers from other sections,
and this can be done BY making IT
attractive for them to come. Under
proper Organization, arrangements
could be made for pooling definite
acreage on basis whereby small
farms of twenty to forty aces
might be offered practical farmers
on rent basis, or at the most, a.
nominal charge for one or more
years with provision for the upkeep
and upbnilding of the land whila

This influx Of new men with
new methods of working out the
problem of reasonable crop DIVERSE

a plan of bringing new people and
new industries into Americas ard
