THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, S. C. Hide Signs of Wealth In every Bantu language there Is a word to describe the action of a man who. owning a considerable herd of cattle, plants them out among his poorer relatives and neighbors so that he will not appear too prosperous. Everybody knows that they are his, and just how many he has, but he must avoid any appearance of ostenta tion. Similarly, it is not considered advisable to own too good a house or lands that are too well culti vated. Feftr of exciting the envy of the chief is ■one of the motives that govern this attitude of mind, which always has been a powerful brake to the progress of Bantu agriculture in South Africa.

Notice particu larly how the bile flows from the liver into and out of the gall-bladder and thence into the small intestine where it mixes with the partly digested food just below the stomach. Lile is a necessary adjunct to proper digestion. Its absence from the intestines inevitably causes putrefaction and, fer mentation. NATURE’S DANGER SIGNALS When your stomach, liver, and gall bladder have been upset by improper eating or drinking, or when they are not working well because retained and putrefying food matter in your intestines is poisoning your entire body, your bile stops flowing freely and you, sooner or later, begin to feel some of the following symp toms: Your breath may become unpleasant (halitosis), your tongue coated, a bad taste in your mouth, your coffee (and tobacco) lose their natural flavor, your food does not agree with you; you may have head ache, heartburn, gas and dizzy spells, you may be troubled with belching; at night the gas in your bowels may press upon your bladder making you get up frequently, thus break ing into your sleep. In the morning you are tired instead of refreshed. Gradually your health is impaired: you have constipation, gas, putre faction and self-poisoning (“intestinal toxaemia” or "acute gastritis” as many doc tors call it). HOW TO GET RELIEF You can relieve this condi tion, usually overnight, by taking Calotabs at bedtime and drinking water freely next day. Calotabs are a thoroughly dependable laxative designed to effectively relieve symp toms of biliousness and acute gastritis due to constipation or faulty digestion, and to promote the flow of bile through the intestines. Calotabs are pleasant to take (sugar coated), prompt and ef fective. Try them and see. Fol low label directions. At your druggists’. Demand the original Calo tabs in the| distinctive checker-board box. Accept no substitute. i That Na^<?in<?

The com plainant was very near-sighted and didn’t seem very sure of his facts. He couldn't positively identify the other man as the one who stole his watch. The fudge, faced with the lack of evidence, was forced to dis charge the alleged pickpocket. When the man stood there, as if he didn’t comprehend the meaning of the justice’s words, the judge repeated the words which dis missed him. , "All right,” he said, "you’re free to go. You may leave. You are judged not guilty. Go on.” The man still wasn’t sure.

I met the guy on the street yesterday and he had the nerve to snap at me with the teeth I made for him.” veuctous Gowm rorsl enjoy'ml First Choice A prospective father had become so keyed up with the waiting that he staged a premature celebration. He managed to break away from his drinking companions soon after midnight and headed for home. He was helped through the door by the nurse. “Is my son here yet?" he de manded, and without waiting for a reply, continued, “Oh, he must be. Show him to me, will you, please?” The nurse, without a word, pulled back some covers and re vealed triplets. He blinked his eyes several times, counted them again to make sure it wasn't the alcohol multiplying for him, then seemed to brighten all of a sudden. “I’ll keep the one In the middle," he announced. Somewhat Tongher In the heat of an argument with a judge, a young lawyer lost a little of his temper. The judge was not one to brook any insolence from young whippersnappers, so he pounded his gavel and said sternly, “I fine you ten dollars for contempt of court.” Hardly were the words out of his mouth when the lawyer piped up, "Yes, Your Honor, I was sort ol expecting that. I have the money right here in my vest pocket.” “Well,” continued the judge, ‘Took through your other pockets and see if you can dig up the rest of the sentence—thirty days in jaiL” Never Fails Bored—“Why do you call Mark a small-talk expert?” Boreder—“If there’s nothing to say, he’ll say It.’’ No Consolation LA.
