MERCHANTS TO I
HEAR ADVICE OF
EXPERT TONIGHT
The three reel feature film, “Trou
bles of a Merchant, and How to Stop
Them,” will be presented for the first
time in Americus tonight at 8 o’clock,
In the High School auditorium. In
connection with the film, a lecture on
retail merchandising will be given. All
merchants and salespeople in the city
are invited to attend. No chaarge will
be made for admission.
Joseph Perkins .secretary of the Re
tail merchant’s Association has se
cured the film and merchandising lec
ture through the courtesy of the Na
tional Cash Register Company, Dayton
Ohio. R. H. Kennedy, expert lecturer
of the Dayton Company, will be the
speaker. The lecture has been given
before commercial organizations and
conventions throughout the country,
and has been highly commended.
Causes for losses and failures in re
tail business are shown, and their
remedy told to the lecture, which has
been prepared from ■ the experience
of the National Cash Register Com
pany in its thirty-four years of deal
ing with merchants in all parts of
the world.
A prominent place in the lecture is
given to the value of newspaper ad
vertising. By means of stereopticon
slides, Mr. Kennedy will tell how to
prepare, newspaper copy, how to se
cure best results, and why a mer
chant should advertise continually.
Window display, efficiency of clerk’s
selling methods, credit business, de
livery problems, and other topics of
interest to merchants will also be dis
cussed.
The film tells in a vivid manner the
story of Mr. White, a merchant who
is near failure. As the film progres
ses, the reasons for his lack of suc
cess becomes plain. Poor arrange
ment of goods, an unattractive front,
lax business methods, and most of all,
out-of-date business methods, all con
tributed their quota of loss.
Finally a change comes in the ca
reer of Mr. White. He cleans up his
store, installs a ’modern system, and
rapidly rises to success. The film is
declared to have a busiiness lesson
in every scene.
Many merchants and salespeople in
this city are expected to welcome the
opportunity offered by this lecture,
and a large attendance is looked for.
BIG EATERS fff.
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a glass of Salts before breakfast
if your Back hurts or Bladder
bothers you.
The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
is rich. Our blood is filled with urio
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
.out, they weaken from overwork, become
sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline in health.
When your kidneys feel like lumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is >
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; if you suffer with sick
headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather is bad, get from your phar
macist about 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 flush and stimulate clogged kidneys ; ;
to neutralize the acids in the urine so it
no longer is a source of irritation, thus i
ending bladder disorders. '
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- ‘
jure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water beverage, and belongs in ;
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake by having a good kidney flush
ing any time.

HIM TEA
If Mixed with Sulphur It
Darkens so Naturally
Nobody can Tell.
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mother’s recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair a good,
even color, which Is quite sensible, as
we are living in an age when a youth
ful appearance is of the greatest ad
vantage.
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
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, called “Wyeth’s Sage
and Sulphur Compound.” It Is very
popular because nobody 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 de
lights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage
and 'hilphur Compound, is that, be
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also pro
duces that soft lustre and appearance
of abundance which is so attractive.
This ready-to-use preparation is a de
lightful toilet requisite for those who
desire a more youthful appearance. Tt
is not intended for the cure, mitiga
tion or prevention of disease.
Danger Every Day
Knowing the Truth, Will You
Heed It?
If 70,000 men out of the first million
examined under the draft act in Geor
gia had a venereal disease, it is time
for every woman and child in the state
to know what syphilis and gonorrhoea
is. If the abpve proposition holds good
as to the entire population there are
203,000 cases of syphilis and gon
orrhoea distributed among the people.
They njeet you on the street, they
sit beside you in the theater; they
eat from the same dishes and drink
from the same glasses at the cases and
restaurants that you do eat and drink
from. They turn the same door knob,
they try on the same gloves that you
do. They handle the fruit and vege
tables that you place on your dining
table for your family to eat.
The time has come for your family
doctor to get down, off of his roost of
false modesty and foolishness and tell
you that the matter or pus from a
syphilitic or gonorrhoeal sore carries
the poison and that when it is placed
on a cracked lip or scratched hand you
are very liable to contract the disease.
Your family physician ought to go far
ther and tell you that in spite of treat
ment the poison of syphilis and gonor
rhoea may be retained in the human
body and produce paralysis or insanity
in old age and that a child born to a
mother or father who is infected with
a venereal disease if born alive will in
more than 80 per cent of the cases be
blind, deformed or mentally deficient.
These are the diseases of the father
that are bequeathed to the third and
fourth generations. They are the can
cers that are eating z into the physical,
mental and moral life of our nation.
They are the skeletons that hang in
the closets of our most palatial homes
as well as the shanties and hovels of
our poor.
When you ask him: If your .family
physician does not tell you how to pro
tect your wife and your children from
such disease, he has neglected to' per
form the highest and most noble duty
of his profession. If your family phy
sician does not file a complete and ac
curate birth certificate for every child
within 10 days after it is born, if he
does not repoit every communicable
disease, if he does not carefully and
completely fill out each death certif
icate, he has failed to furnish the local
and state health officers with the
necessary data upon which is based the
prevention of all diseases. It is said
that 30 per cent of all blindness is due
to goncirhoea, but without complete
birth segistration no one can tell; for
it is into the eyes of the infant that
the gono’.rhccal matter is placed and
carelessly preventive measures are
neglected ihat produce this blindness.
If the death certificates are examined,
few certificates show syphilis as the
cause of death, due to the fact that the
physician tried to hide the real cause
or was grossly ignorant of the real
cause of death. Many certificates show
senile demential, locomotor ataxia, pa
resis and blood poisoning when such
deaths are in truth due to syphilis.
The time has come in Georgia when
the people must demand of the health
officers protection against communica
.ble diseases and of the physicians com
plete and accurate birth and death
registration and the public notification
of all preventable disease.
VENEREAL DISEASE
IS NOT
A NECESSARY EVIL
IF
Men and women would refrain
from wrong-doing;
Everyone infected remained under
treatment until cured;
Those infected took care of them
selves and thought of the wel
fare of others;
THEN
the great menace to the people of
this country
COULD BE STAMPED OUT
ARE YOU DOING YOUR PART?
CLEAN UP
With the demobilization o f prac
tically four million men who have not
alone been drilled in the use of arms
and modern warfare, but who have
been told time after time that clean
living was the right life of a soldier,
that sanitation around the camp pays
and will pay around the home. That
most of our ills are due to our own
disobedience of recognized health laws,
and that regular hours, proper food, as
well as clean sexual lite and thought
would conserve our strength and give
vigor to our every day life. They have
been taught in the camp what they
should have known from their fathers
before they were called to the colors.
They have been made better men,
cleaner men than when they answered
the call of our country. The truth is
that five-sixths of venereal diseases
were brought to the camps from the
home towns and near-by cities, and
only one-sixth of the total infection of
the men has occurred since their en
listment.
Can we say that we have cleaned up
our home communities ready for the
home coming? Is it likely that demob
ilization will mean in your commun
ity demoralization? Have you gotten
rid of questionable characters? Have
you put out of existence all places of
disrepute in your vicinity? Have you
yet places where men and women of
questionable character congregate ?
Don’t you think it is time to clean up?

From Three Year*’ Suffering. Saya
Car4ui Made her WclL
Texas City, Tex.—ln an interesting
statement, Mrs. C. H. Schill, of this town, :
says: "For three years I suffered untold I
agony with my head. I was unable to i
do any of my work.
I just wanted to sleep all the time, for,
that was the only ease 1 could get, when i
I was asleep. I became a nervous wreck :
just from the awful suffering with m/ i
I Nead.
1 was so nervous that the least noise
; would make me jump out of my bed. I
; had no energy, and was unable to do
anything. My sen, a young boy, had to
do all my household duties.
I was not able to do anything until I
took Cardui. I took three bottles in all.
and it surely cured me of those awful
headaches. That has been three years
ago, and I know the cure ia permanent,
■for I have never had any headache since
taking Cardui. ..
Nothing relieved me until 1 took Cardui. I
It did wonders for me.”
Try Cardui for your troubles—made
from medicinal ingredients recommended
in medical books as being of benefit In
female troubles, and 40 yean of use has
proven that the books are right Begin
