FIGHTING
Every Step Of the Way
Case of Mrs. Rebecca Miller Con
tinued Until Friday.


There has been another continuance
in the case of Mrs. Rebecca Miller,
who was arrested a week or so ago
on a charge of adulterating cream.
The attorney for the defense filed a
demurrer to the affidavit and motion
to dismiss the case when it was called
Tuesday morning.
1t was argued that the statute says
nothing about adulterating cream, and
the affidavit specifies that 1t was
cream that was adulterated by the de-
fendant. 1t was also argued that the
Mayor has no jurisdiction outside the
city in cases of the kind, and that
the affidavit failed to state that the
alleged offense took place in the city.
The demurrer and motion were both
overruled by the Mayor and the case
will be heard Friday morning.

The attraction at the Grand Thurs

that it will please. This is a new and
sensational melodrama, from the pen
Of Owen Davis. 1t has made a great
hit this year. While the play is re-
plete with exciting situations, stirring
climaxes and happy denouements, as
the beautiful heroine and her brave
sweetheart escape the conspiracies
that are directed at them, there is
enough of comedy and light humor with
witty dialogue in the play to keep the
audience laughing between thrills of
excitement. In fact, a number of new
and catchy songs and specialties are

Druggists Talk Frankly
About
Dr.. KiImer's
Swamp-Root
To The Democrat.

Mr.. Lamparter, of Lamparter & Co.'S
Drug Store. in an interview says:
Merit alone sells more Of the thous-
ands of remedies on the market than
anything else. Clever written adver-
tisements. attractive bottles and thous-
ands of dollars invested in publicity
will put the remedy on the market,
load the druggists up, sell the custom
ers first bottle. but the remedy must
have merit. 1t must produce results-to
sell the second bottle.
We have seen many kidney and
bladder remedies come on the market,
making sweeping claims guaranteeing
everything. but there is only one reme-
dy that has stood the test and made
friends with every bottle sold and that
one is Dr. Kilner's SWAMP-ROOT.
We always keep good supply on hand
because we have found in our expert
ence that '.Dr. Kilmer Swamp Root"
customer knows what he wants.
Yes, we only wish every remedy was
as easy to sell and gave as much salts
faction as DR.. Kilmer's SWAMP
ROOT.

by heavy bag of tools slung over his

THE Gkft. cal TREE.
A Wonderful Giant Found In tho
Forests of Australia.

A Wonderful GIANT Found In tho
Forests of Australia.
One of the most wonderful forest
trees In the world Is the "cannibal
tree" OF Australia, which grows up In
the shape of huge pineapple and sci
dom attalns a height of more than
eleven feet. 1t has Il series of broad,
koardlike leaves, growing In n fringe
mt the apex, which reminds one of
gigantic Central American agavc.
When standing erect, these broad,
thick leaves hide n eurloss looking ar
rnngement, which appears To perform
the same functions as those of TIE
pistils In flowers. Naturally these
boardlike leaves, which are from ten
to twelve feet long In the smaller
specimens and from fifteen TO twenty
In the larger, hang to the ground and
are strong enough to bear mans
weight
In old aboriginal times In the anti
podenn wilds the natives worshipCd
the cannibal tree under the name of
the devil tree" the chief part of the
ceremony consisting of driving one of
their number up the leaves of the tree
to the apex. The instant the victim
would touch the so chilled "pistIls" of
the monster the leaves would instantly
fly together like n trap, squeezing the
life out of the Intruder. Early travel
ers declared that the tree held its vic.
tim until every particle of flesh dis.
appeared. On this account ii Is called
the "cannibal tree"
