RESOLUTIONS CT RESPECT.

Man was born to die. From his
first moment of existence the grim
monster, Death, pursues his footsteps
reIentlessly, and the pursuit only
ends when his victim is in his en-
brace.
The decree has gone forth, that all
must die; none are exempt, of any
age or station.
We, as a Council, once more re-
aIize the truth Of the assertion, that
nan is mortal. Our Brother, Rich
ard E. Jones, has passed from an
earthly TO a spiritual existence.
While he did not live out the time
allotted to man, among his fellows,
yet he was spared to a good old age,
and passed away from life in love
and charity with all, and according
to his dying declaration, without
fear for the future. Therefore be it
Resolved, AS members Of Colds
coro Council, No. 500, Royal Ar
canum, we lament his death, but we
bow with resignation to Gods will,
who makes no mistakes, and doeth
all things wisely and we'll.
We offer to those whom he has
left behind, our heart felt sympathy,
and trust that they will find consola-
ton in the religion Of our Redeemer.
Resolved, That these resolutions
be spread upon the records Of the
Council, and that a copy Of same be
furnished the ARGUS, with a request
that same be published, and that a
copy be furnished the family of the
deceased.

What to Do.
There is comfort in the KNOWLEDGE so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilrner's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of LIQUOR,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to 90 often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its won
dertul cures Of the most distressing cases.

INDIANA'S ELM PEELERS.

money and lots of it. If you don't believe
it, ask A L. Hitler the 'elm peeler' of
Peru. He knows.
The "elm peeler" is the benefactor OF
mankind He is the Hoosier medicine

Gently wrote for a Chicago patent medi-
cine contained Killers peel" of course,
you were cured by the second bottle and
could not keep house without it. Hitler
may have produced the strongest curative
element in the bottle. So hats off to the
"elm peeler.
Twelve years ago Hitler began peeling
elm trees in the forests surrounding Peru.
His sale of the Northumberland peel
was light at first, but gradually chemists
began to realize that elm peel was cura-
tive, and Killers business increased with
the years. Now he cannot get it fast
enough.
Most of Killers product of the forest
goes to Chicago medicine manufacturing
company and he gets nine and one-half
cents a pound for his product. Recently,
with five assistants Mr.. Hitler gathered
200 pounds of elm peel, receiving s64S
for the shipment. 1t required fifteen days
to gather the lot
The season for peeling elm trees is from
April 10 to June l. Hitler and his elm
peelers' go to the woods and comp during
the peeling season. Frequently they
work from fifteen to eighteen hours
day-in other words. they make peel
while the sun shines" The peel has to be
gathered while the sap is going up.
The trees must be ten or more inches
in diameter before they are felled and
peeled. The elms are sawed near the
bottom and then rolled TO pot con-
venient for peeling. The rough outside
covering is removed and then a large knife
is used TO dissect the slippery part Of
the elm. There the peeler has the slip
perry elm so dear to the heart Of every
boy. The boy who doesn't know when the
slippery elm season is on is a Juvenile
dyspeptic.
After the tree has been peeled the logs
are abandoned and are later cut into stove
wood. Elm Peeler Hitler insists that I'M
less the planting of elms is made an ex-
tensive industry by the farmers that in
few years the elm will be extinct, and it
is necessary to have them for the medi-
cine they contain. Hitler has Just feled
