REMOVESCAUSE
OF HEADACHE
Doctors Condemn Remedies
That Merely Relieve the Pain
—Claim Aspironal Also Re
moves Cause. Absolutely
Safe.
Doctors and druggists are delight
ed with Aspironal, the new elixir that
relieves headaches (and colds) within
two minutes and also removes the
cause and prevents the return head
ache the next day by gently acting
on the liver, correcting biliousness
and constipation which are usually
the cause of headache.
The next time you have a headache
go to your nearest drug store, hand
the clerk half a dollar for a bottle of
Aspironal and tell him to serve you
two teaspoonsful in a little water.
With your watch in your hand count
off two minutes and call for your
money back, as per manufacturer’s
guarantee, if you can’t feel your
headache fading away within the
tirrie limit. Your druggist invites
you and expects you to try Aspironal.
Everybody is doing it.— (adv.)
fiND GOMS RECEDE
Every Breath Can Suck Germs
Into The Mouth Where They
Multiply and Spread
A New Way To Protect Mouth
The real cause of tooth, gum and
throat troubles is not hard to find.
Remember, every breath you take
through your mouth may be loaded
with germs. Your teeth and gums
are right at the doorway of your
body and germs which would die
quickly on the outside skin, live and
make trouble in the mouth because it
is warm there.
If your teeth and gums are already
in bad shape, go to your dentist at
once. If you or your children have
throat trouble consult a physician.
But remember that the germs you
breathe in, lodge in the mouth and
cause many of these afflictions, and
you can prevent this by a daily mouth
wash with Steroline.
Steroline is a new product, formu
lated to serve as an antiseptic mouth
wash and gargle. Its daily use will
kete-> your mouth clean and whole
some. When you rinse it over the
membranes of the mouth and through
the teeth, you protect yourself
against germs that might later find
their way to the lungs and stomach.
Children who do not know these
things are likely to let soiled fingers
and objects come in contact with the
mouth. They soon learn to use Ster
oline (diluted) which leaves a clean,
fresh, agreeable taste and may save
them much unhappiness later on.
If you or your children are free
from tooth, gum and throat trouble,
be thankful and keep up this condi
tion by using Sterolin'e. If there is
trouble, have it attended to promptly
and do something to avoid future re
currence by daily cleansing of the
mouth with Steroline.
Sterolin’e is sold and recommended
by'druggists. The price is 50c the
bottle. The formula is printed on
the label. Steroline is always pre
sented in an ethical manner. adv

was Dr. Pierce who afterward moved
to Buffalo, N. Y. He made up his
mind to place some of his medicines
before the public, and he put up
what he called his "Favorite Pre

druggists in every state in the Union.
For fifty years Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription has sold more largely
throughout the United States than
any other medicine of like character,
It’s the testimony of thousands of
women that it has benefited or en

now sold by druggists in tablet form
as well as liquid.

THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER.
PLANNEIGHBORS’
DAY ON MONDAY
Novel Flag Day Feature
Arranged For Com
munity House
On March 20 a conference was
convened in Washington by Frank
lin Lane at which were present some
500 delegates representing fifty na
tional organizations interested in
community organization. At that
time it was decided to hold on June
12, 13 and 14 a celebration to be
known as Three Days for Democra
cy: Saturday, June 12, Neighbors’
Day, with special recreational pro
gram in all communities; Sunday,
June 13, Community Sunday, with
special services in the churches;
Monday, Jun? 14 Flag Day, with
patriotic celebrations and various
communitv gatherings. The object
of this celebration will be to stimu
late neighborly discussion of nation
al and local problems, to arouse in
terest in programs of community or
ganization, and in general to create
a spirit of neighborliness and good
will.
In accord with the spirit of this
movement the question has been ask
ed what part should Americus have
in the undertaking? Should anything
be done? The local committee on
Community Service has the following
suggestion to offer: That on Mon
day, June 14, Flag Day be observed
by a flag parade of the boys and
girls of school age; and in the eve
ning a Neighbor’s Day meeting be
held at the Community House on
Hill street at 8, to which every one
is invited. This meeting will have a
musical program, announcement of
which will appear later, but its gen
eral purpose will be a get-together
meeting for neighborliness and good
will. There will be special music in
the way of solos, duets, and quar
tettes, and also community singing
in which every one will take part.
The men from Souther Field and the
men of the American Legion are to
be special guests. It is hoped that
every one will apprecite the spirit of
this invitation and will be on hand to
make his or her personal contribu
tion to the success of this undertak
ing.
It is suggested that the spirit of
neighborliness needs to be cultivat
ed, the people of every community
ought to know each other better, and
to further this spirit is the object of
this national celebration —in other
words to put into effect and hold
some of the things we learned and
felt during the war, which are in dan
ger of being lost now in times of
peace. The Community House and
the playground are to be instru
mental, it is hoped, in this direction
—working under the name of Com
munity Service, an organization in
which all the people, by working to
gether, serve themselves.
It is hoped that every boy and girl
in Americus will feel it his patriotic
duty, as well as privilege, to make
the parade on June 14, Flag Day in
Americus, a great success. It will be
a great day in Washington and in
other cities of the country. Why
should not the world know that
Americus was in line, too? It will
make a good news dispatch. Let’s
put it over! This town is our home
town —let’s give it a boost!
The march will begin at the Sal
vation Army building at 5 o’clock,
Monday, June 14, and every boy and
girl should be there not later than
4:30 with his or her own flag in hand.
Those who are uable to get flags
should come just the same, so as
to fill up the ranks good and strong
for Americus’ 1920 Flag parade.
FRECKLE-FACE
Sun and Wind Bring Out Ugly
Spots. How To Remove Easily.
Heres a chance, Miss Freckle-face,
to try a remedy for freckles with the
guarantee of a reliable concern that it
will not cost you a penny unless it
removes the freckles; while if it does
give you a clear complexion the ex
pense is trifling.
Simply get an ounce of Othine—
double strength-—from any druggist
and a few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself of
the homely freckles and get a beauti
ful complexion. Rarely is more than
one ounce needed for the worst case.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength Othins, as this
strength is sold under guarantee of
money back if it fails to remove
freckles. adv

IF BACKACHY OR
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat and take a glass of
Salts to flush out Kidneys—
Drink plenty water.
Urie acid in meat excites the kidneys,
; they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like lumps of lead. °The I
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri- |
tated, and you may be obliged to seek re- I
lief two or three times during the night. !
When the kidneys clog you must help i
them flush off the body’s urinous waste I
or you’ll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the kid
ney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue and you feel rheu- 1
matic twinges when the weather is bad. '
Eat less meat, drink lots of water; ’
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before 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 has been used ‘
for generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine, so f
it no longer Is a source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness. *
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cAinot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent j
lithia-water drink which everyone should I
take now and then to keep the kidneys /
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble j
while it is only trouble.

the diarrhoeal symptoms, such as
constipation, sour stomach, gas, sleep
lessness, fretfulness and feverishness.
1 eething also upsets the stomach, un
less baby is unusually strong and
healthy. The best safeguard during
baby s second summer” is a good
baby laxative, but, owing to the deli
cate condition of baby’s stomach at
this time, great care should be used
not to give strong, irritating drugs
1 that cause inflammation, such as the
castor preparations.
The safest thing is “Baby Ease,” a
perfected baby laxative by a baby
specialist. It is easy-acting, non-irri
tating, does not produce over-action,
or leav’e constipating after effects. It
is a safe, harmless and efficient laxa
tive and corrective. If a few doses
fail to improve the baby, see a physic
ian. Ask your druggist for “Babjl
Ease.”
