MO LONGER IMPORT SULFHUR

Deep under marsh land and eiriA
sands. In which It la impoaalbla ta aink
shafts, there have been (or ages de
posits of almost para sulphur ta
Louisiana and Texas. For many
years these deposits defied efforts to
obtain them.
All the tulpbur used In this coun
try formerly came from Sicily, where
the sulphur mines on the slopes of
Mt Etna had bean worked for more
than 2,000 years. It In only since
1806 that sulphur has bean obtained
In any appreciable quantities from our
own sources of supply In Louisiana,
and today, thanks to chemical ln^
yenulty and acumen, all theeeolpbur
used In this country la of natlss
origin.
By far the ftwategt part of the
sulphur produced In the amid Is used
In the manufacture of sulphuric add.
Sulphur la a constituent of Mack
powdet, which la used largely in mik
ing soft cosh It find! employment
In She rubber industry as a ?ulcaptatag
agent. It la used bo the bleaching of
silk and wool
The straw for use in straw bats
Is bleached with sulphur dloglde
fumes, made hp burning sulphur.
Large quantities are used In the farm
of solutions and powders to combat
injurious growths on grapevines. Its
use as a medicine in the form of
ointments is well known.

The editor of the Smalltown Bugta,
like some others of his brethren, ex
periences considerable difficult In per
suading his snbserlbers to come for
ward, from time to time, with the an
nual subscription price. "If it Is agree
able to you," he Anally wrote to one
hardened delinquent, "I will accept
two bushels of corn In payment of the
amount you owe me." "I regret to
say," responded Farmer Brown, In due
course, "that la feeding my stock I
haw used all the corn I raised." "Dear
Mr. Brown." began the next letter of
the series, "Inasmuch as you have
used all your corn, 1 presume you
have a large supply of oem cobs oo
hand, and I would be glad to accept
a load thereof in payment of the
amount dne from you, as I can nee
them In place of kindling wood."
"Mr. Editor," replied the fanner by
the next mall, "your letter has been

Including brain, nerve and glandular

make such good use of an almost pure

fat. Dr. Marquld says that, as the
white man's white bread, refined sugar

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD W SALTS
hji Backache i> a aign you have bM
eating too much meat, which
finms nrio acU.
When you wake up with backache and
?lull misery in the kidney region it gen
erally means you have been eating too
much meat, aaye a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort' to filter it j
from the blood and tbev become sort of i
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys |
get sluggish and clog you must relieve .
them, like you relieve your bowels; re- ,
moving ail the body's urinous waste, I :
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach spurs, tongue j
is coated, and when the Weather la Sad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or from your pharmacist I
about four ounces of J ad 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 la made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with liuia,
and has been used for'generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize adds in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jsd Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters..-It-is inexpensive, cannot
injure and mikes a delightful, effer
vescent lithis-water drink.

Why You Should Deposit
v Your Money In The
Bank Of Ahoskie
When you deposit your money in this bank,
you not only deposit it in one of the strongest
banks in this section, but it is financially able to

year.
We loan money to our patrons, and when you
deposit your money here you become one of the
large number that we are glad to accommodate
in every way possible.
If you are a farmer you buy merchandise, and
if you buy on time you pay more than you would
have to pay if you were financially able to pay
cash.?The way to do this and get ahead, is to de
posit your money here during the harvest; and
we accommodate you during the spring and sum
mer,
Every accommodation extended our custom
ers that sound banking will permit.
