during the night. Unhealthy kidneys cause
or dull ache in the back, joints and muscles;
make your head ache and back ache, cause indi-
gestion, stomach and liver trouble, you get q
sallow, yellow complexion, make you feel as
| though you had heart trouble; you may have
| plenty of ambition, but no strength; get weak
and waste away.

healer and gentle aid to the kidneys that is

How to Find Out

If there is any doubt in your mind to your
condition, take from your urine on rising about
four ounces, place it in glass or bottle and let
it stand twenty-four hours. If on examination
it is milky cloudy, if there is brick dust set
sling or If small particles float around in it, your
kidneys are in need of immediate attention.
Swamp Root is pleasant to take and is used in
the leading hospitals, recommended by ply
sicans in their private practice, and is taken by
doctors themselves who have kidney ailments,
because they recognize in it the greatest and
most successful remedy for kidney, liver and
bladder troubles.

THE BELTEO PLAID.
This Was the Original Dress Of the
Scottish HighIa ndeP.


The original dress OF the highlander
was the belted plaid. This was a
piece OF tartan cloth. two yards broad
and four long, which was drawn
around the waist In nicely adjusted
folds and tightly buckled with belt.
The lower part came down 10 the
knees In much the same manner az
the modern kilt, while the upper part
was drawn up and adjusted 10 the left
shoulder, 20 that the right arm might
be perf~etly free. This upper part was
the plaid, which was used as a covering
for the shoulders and body In wet
weather, and when the use OF both
arms was required IL was fastened
across the breast with brooch. often
curously enriched. A brooch was also
used 10 fasten the plaid on the left
shoulder. To attire himself in the belt
ed plaid required on the part OF the
highlander no small amount OF dexteri-
~. The usual way was 10 lay ii on
the floor and after carefully arranging
the folds TO lie down upon il and then
buckle IL on. The lower end was fas-
tened at the right hip. The utility OF
such dress In the highlands Is OBJ
