WAKE UP YOUR
LIVER BILE-
VUiobI Calomel—And You'D Jumf Out of Bad ia
(be Morning Rarin’ to Go
The Hver should pour out two pound* of
Liquid bfle into your bowels dally.jf tkto blla
fanot flowing freely, your food doesn t digest.
It just decays in the bowels. Gaa bloato up
ybur atomach. You set constipated. Your
whole System is poisoned and you feel sour,
sank and the world looks punk.
A mere bowel movement doesn t get at
the cause. It takes those good, old Carters
Iiittle Liver PiHs to get these two pounds
of bile floWing freely and make you feel
“up and up.” Harmless, gentle, yet amaz-
ing in making bile flow freely. Ask for
Carter’s Little Liver Pills by name. 25 cents.
Stubbornly refuse anything else.
The following are some hints on
what to do and what not to do in or-
der to better your percentage of
good negatives.
The common fault of most am-
ateurs is the inclination to tilt the
camera backward when photograph-
ing a tall building, trees etc.
This gives the grotesque effect of
the object leaning sharply back-
ward, as if about to fall over. Also,
the object tapers toward the top, due
to angular perspective, seeming to
get smaller. To correct this, hold the
camera level and get far enough
back from the object to include it in
the negative.
Another common fault is blurred
images. This can be caused by two
different things. Either the camera
was not held steady or a higher
shutter speed was needed to stop the
action, or both.
Always hold the camera in such a
manner that it is fairly steady at
the moment of exposure and always
use a shutter speed to fit the action
and adjust the diaphragm according-
ly. If possible, use a meter.
Never hold the camera in the hand
for any exposure less than a twenty-
fifth of a second.
Another cause for headaches is
light struck negatives and glare in
the print. This is caused by either
shooting too directly into brightly
lighted areas or by leaks in the cam-
era. as leaky cameras are not a
common thing, the most obvious
reason would be the former.
This can be avoided by refraining
from shooting directly into any light
that shines directly into the lens.
Try to get into the habit of using
a sunshade. They cost little and
soon pay for themselves many times
over.

Watch Your
Kidneys/
Help Them Cleanse the Blood
of Harmful Body Waste
Your kidneys are constantly filtering
waste matter from thefclood stream. Bui
kidneys sometimes lag in their work—<to
not act as Nature intended—fail to re*
move Impurities that, if retained, may
poison the system and upset the whom
body machinery. .
Symptoms may be nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—a feeling of nervous
anxiety and loes of pep and strength.
Outer signs of kidney or bladder dis-
order may be burning, scanty or to*
frequent urination.
There should be so doubt that prompt
treatment is wiser than neglect. Use
Doan’* Pills. Doan’s have been winning
new friends for more than forty years.
They have n nation-wide reputation.
Are recommended by grateful people the
country over. Ati your neighbor)
DOAN SPILLS
The most pressing (problem that
has been before the Legislature is
the Constitutional Amendment re-
commended by the Governor. It
failed by one vote last Friday to get
a majority, and it will have to have
a two-thirds vote to call it up again.
It seems that the House of Repre-
sentatives has decided to work on a
Tax Bill for a while and see if they
can get together on that.
This Constitutional Amendment
on final vote, contained an increase
of 33 1-3% on Natural Resources
and electric energy, together with
a Sales Tax of 2 per cent. There is
an exemption under the Sales Tax
provision on certain medicine, cloth-
ing up to $5.00, and all foods, to
prevent it from falling heavily on
the poorer class of people. This
would raise a large amount of money
and would give the people an op-
portunity to pass directly on the
subject, whether they were willing
to have a liberal pension, and
would tend to take it out of politics.
I voted for the measure because 1
thought it had more advantages
than disadvantages, and further, be-
cause it is my belief that the Leg-
islature will raise very little extra
money by direct legislation. Many
vould be willing to let the people
say that they wanted more money
in this program, when they would
not be willing to put it in themselves.
This has been defeated so far by
the Anti-Sales Tax Group. There
has existed for several years in Tex-
as, a strongly organized group,
headed by some millionaire Depart-
ment Store Heads, in Dallas. Dur-

ing the last three years I have re-
ceived more printed matter against
a Sales Tax than on all other sub-
jects of legislation. They seem to
be well financed, and according to
their letters to their own em-
ployees, which I have at hand, they
are paying two lobbyists to sit in
the galleries of the Legislature, and
direct the propaganda over Texas.
They are also paying three cents a
name for protests to the Legisla-
ture, out of each Legislator’s Dis-
trict, and offer to send in to these
Districts, hired help to get up pro-
test petitions to bring public pres-
sure on us. Those are facts that I
have positive proof of in my posses-
sion, turned over to me by one of
their ./agents in Fannin County.
They are telling the public that
this Constitutional Amendment is
backed by the lobbyists. I tell you
there are no lobbyists in Austin ask-
ing for a tax on anything. They are
all against taxation of any charact-
er, and none of them are interested
in the old folks.
I am trying to stand by the in-
terests of my county in the solution
of this problem, and have been sup-
porting the measure that would
give the people, themselves, the
final vote on the results of our la-
bors.
Respectfully,

4-H PIG WORK
Elihu Green, who is at the head
of the Fairview school, says that the
community has recently completed
•a storm house, and that now the
mothers need not be alarmed when a
cloud comes up, as the kiddies will be
safe in the cellar, or storm house.
Will Thomas, East Fourth street,
gums saws and sharpens them. He
also does general mechanical work.
Texas 4-H club members are show-
ing the way toward profitable swine
production as the state turns more
and more toward the practice of mar-
keting its feed crops through live-
stock.
Interest of 4-H hoys in swine de-
monstrations continues to increase,
with the annual report of E. M. Re-
genbrecht, swine husbandman of the
Texas A. and M. College Extension
Service, showing that 5,816 boys car-
ried demonstrations involving 6,726
hogs and that the number of boys
who had completed their demonstra-
tions at the end of the year reached
3,143, an increase of 55 percent over
the 1937 figure.
Records here show that 1,532 4-H
boys carried swine demonstrations in
1934, 1,808 in 1935, 2,452 in 1936, and
4,513 in 1937. Club members in 193
Texas counties took part in the work
during the year.
Regenbrecht said major develop-
ments in 4-H swine productmn in 1938
aside from the increase ii^hmber of
boys and animals involved, included
a greater use of registered breeding
stocks and a more general adoption
of the ration recommended by county
agricultural agents.
Many boys reported gains of from
180 to 250 pounds per pig in less than
six months, and farmers are begin-
ning to follow the lead of the 4-H
club members in feeding practices,
the swine husbandman pointed out.
