Salts Fine for
Aching Kidneys
When Back Hurts Flush Your
Kidneys as You Clean
Your Bowels
Most folks forcet that the kidneys,
like the bowels, sometimes pet sluggish
and clogged and need a flushing occa
sionally, else we have backache and dull
n isery in the kidney region, severe
keadaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean and the moment you
feci an ache or 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 tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast for a 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.
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 be
lieve in trying to correct kidney trouble
while it is only trouble. By all means
have your physician examine your kid
neys at least twice a year.
TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It Darkens
Se Naturally Nobody
Can Tell
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
end Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grandmoth
er’s recipe, and folks are again using it
lo keep their hair a good, even color,
which is quite sensible, as we are liv
ing in an age when a youthful appear
ance is of the greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don’t have the
troublesome task of gathering the sage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod
uct, improved by the addition of other
ingredients, called “Wyeth’s Sage and
Sulphur Compound.” It is very popu
lar because nobody can discover it has
been applied. Simply moisten your
comb or a soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound, is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after a few applica
tions, it also produces that soft lustre
and appearance of abundance which is
bo attractive.

IN MEMORY
Death has visited tho home of Mr.
Charlie Dean and taken from him his
loving companion. How sad the word
“death” to us. It means a separation
from loved ones and friends, sorrow and
sadness to those left to mourn. Sym
pathy is a very welcome friend, but can
not soothe the broken hoarted hus
band. If one ever needs kind words
and friends, it is when their loved ones
aro taken. It seems that when the
mother is taken life is almost a failure,
but wo are mistaken, what God does
is done for our good.
Nela, as she was called, united with
the Baptist church when she was
quite young, of which she was a faithful
member until death on the 12th day of
April, she being 22 years and 8 months
old. She was laid to rest in Pleasant
View cemetery at her request. Her
former school teacher, L. W. Stallings,
conducted the funeral.
During her sickness of only a few
days, she left evidence that she was
going to a better world. At ono time
she called her father to her bed and
told him that she could hear singing,
and if it was the Lord’s will, she wflfk
ready to join, that she had suffered
ity of Crnroll- |enough and that God had a place for her
November 26th, , in heaven
May her husband live so as to meet
her in that better world, and may her
two little children be taught to love
and serve the God she did, and may
they with all their loved ones meet
around that great white throne and join
in singing with her, as she so much en
joyed singing. Wo don’t say Hho was
perfect, for none are perfect, but truly
hope she is now resting in the Savior’s
love.
’Tis hard to break the cord,
Where love has bound the heart;
'Tis hard, so hard, to speak the words,
“We must forever part.”

Atlanta, Ga., July 12th.—Things seem
to be falling out favorably to putting
Henry Ford prominently in the running
fo rnomination for president—at least
one business man, C. W. McClure, of
Atlanta, thinks so,
Mr. McClnr.e bond of a chain of ton
cent stores which bear his name, and
prominent in the civic and commercial
life of Atlanta, claims tho distinction
of being the first man in tho South to
suggest to the Detroit manufacturer the
use of his name for the White House
job. And Mr. McClure adds:
“If congress had given Muscle Shoals
to Ford to work out, I do not think
there would have been any pronounced
boom for him for president. Since,
however, the national law-making body
has seen fit to withhold Muscle Shoals
from him—and it continues to do so, it
is bound to make him president sooner
or later.”
It will be recalled that Mr. McCulre
headed a movement in the South which
had for its slogan, “Ford-Ford-Muselo
Shoals. ” This movement gained con
siderable headway while the agitation
for a disposition of Muscle Shoals was
at its height.
Mr. McClure, who is a Republican in
principle but with strong leaning to>
ward tlie Progressive party or tho for
mation of a new party, first suggested
the name of Henry Ford for president
a lettcT addressed to him on July
18th. 1916. Mr. McClure’s letter, which
now made public for the first time,
together with Mr. Ford’s reply, is as
follows:
“Dear Sir;—1 am working with
John M. Parker and others to form
a new partv, and the main plunks
in its platform will lie for human
rights above property rights, and
more of the plans we had ill 1912,
regarding minimum wages, or in
other words, advocating plans that
will elevate humanity nnd do
something for the fellow who don't
seem able to do anything for him
self. and I believe that- you believe
in these things, and I am sure you
could do more for the party than
any other one man, and if it possi
ble for you to accept the leader
ship, you are the man for it, and if
not, you should be ono of the main
wheels in the organization.
“If you have not already consid
ered it T hope von will do so, and
have your socretarv meet with some
of our people in New York or Chi
cago previous to the convention call
for August 5tli at Chicago, and.see
if wo can’t get together on a ten
tative plan which would meet as
mnnv of your views as possible.
“I am writing you this of my
own initiative, but it meets the ap
proval of tho leaders here in Geor
gia, and I am sure it will meet the
majority of tho others.”
Eight days after Mr. Mc.CIuto dis
patched his letter, O. S. Anderson, .as
sistant secretary to Henry Ford, ad
dressed Mr. McClure this way:
“Dear Sir;—Your favor of the
18th to Mr. Ford has been referr
ed to tho writer for attention.
“As \Ve have repeatedly stated
to roperesentatives of all political
parties, who have endeavored to get
Mr. Ford to accept the nomination
for president, wo must again repeat
to you. Mr. Ford is not interested
in politics nor would not consider
the nomination for president.
“It is very thoughtful and kind
of you to suggest him for this lead
ership, but he believes that he can
accomplish a great deal more by
giving his undivided timo and at
tention to the immenso business
here.”
IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE
I konw a church upon a hill,
Built fifty years or more,
Where humble folks on Sunday morn
Flock through its open door"
For fifty years a choir has sung
And deacons passed the hat,
While ushers tiptoed down the isles,
Soft as a pussy cat.
The grace of God, for fifty years
Preached from the pulpit old,
nas waked repentance, or lulled to sleep,
The folks of the fold.
Now all these years the folks have
known
These things of which T toll.
Yet each Sabbath morn they advertise
By means of tho church bell.
Which shows that no matter how long
you have been in a community—no mat
ter what your standing is—if you have
something which you want others to ac
quire to your profit, vou must adver
tise.
The shop-worn excuse that “every

there all these years, and yet it finds
it advantageous to advertise by ring
