SALIS FINE FOR
Back Hurts Flush Your Kid
neys As You Clean Your
Bowels.
Most folks forget that the kid
neys, like the bowels, sometimes get
sluggish and clogged and need a
flushing occasionally, else we have
backache and ^.11 misery in the kid
ney region, severe headaches, rheu
matic twinges, torpid liver, acid
stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts
of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean and the mo
ment you feel an ache of pain in the
kidney region begin drinking lots
of water. Also get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
drug store here, take a tablespoojj
ful in a glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine. This fa
mous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and is intended to flush
clogged kidneys and help stimulate
them to activity. It also helps neu
tralize the acids in the urine so
they no longer irritate thus helping
to relieve bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a
delightful effervescent lithia water
drink, which everybody should take
now and then to help keep their
kidneys clean.
A well known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks
who believe in trying to
kidney trouble while it is only trou
ble. By all means have your phy
sician examine your kidneys
least twice a year.

Jno. F. Clark & Company’s
Cotton Letter
New York, Oct. 7.—There is not
much to say of a market which kept
within range of 15 points until the
final half hour, when rather liberal
experts for the day injected a little
strength. Most accounts have
evened up in anticipation of tomor
row’s bureau report, which is gen
erally expected between 12,400,000
and 12,500,000.
There are some people, however,
who still believe that an unpleasant
surprise awaits shorts, especially
among those spinners who have
sold goods ahead without protect
ing such sales with cotton.
About 4,000 bales were tendered
today. Best prices were 29 points
above last night, closing with net
gains of about 25 points on the day.

Nobody Can Tell When You Darken
Gray, Faded Hair With
Sage Tea.
Grandmother kept her hair beau
tiful with a brew of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked ap
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect. By
asking at any drug store for “Wy
eth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, -
you will get a large bottle of this
old time recipe, improved by the
addition of other ingredients, all
ready to use, at very little cost.
This simple mixture can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair.
Well-known druggists say every
body uses Wyeth’s Sage Tea and
Sulphur Compound now because it
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
—it’s so easy to use, too. You sim
ply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, tak
ing one strand at a time. By
morning the gray hair disappears;
after another application or two, it
is restored to its natural color and
looks glossy, soft and beautiful.

A Laugh Or Two
News' had reached the village of
Forksville that a motor bus plying
between the two neighboring towns
of Bumpton and Gush Hollow had
gone over the side of a cliff with
all on board. It was also known
in Forksvilie that the wife of the
much henpecked Bud Blodgett was
en route to Gush Hollow via the
bus line. An interested villager im
mediately called on Bud.
it Ain’t ye worried ’bout yer wife,
Bud?” he asked.
“Well,” replied Bud, “I was for
a while, but her cousin in Bumpton
jest called up an’ said she saw Sal
git on the bus with her own eyes. tt
>' In legal circles a favorite story
is told of the new servant girl who,
the day after her arrival, pricked
her finger with a fork and seemed
greatly distressed.
u Only think, madam,” she said to
her mistress, “inflamation or blood
poisoning might set in. yy
“Don’t alarm yourself, my girl,
the forks are real silver, take my
word for it. yy
“You are quite sure, ma’am?”
« Positive. >y
Next morning the girl had disap
