Strength of Plants.

Strength is not a thing usually con
nected With maidenhair fern, vet if its
roots have not sufficient room they will
break the pot in which the plant grows.
Blades Of grass will force the curb
stones between which they may spring
up out OF their place, and in a single
night a crop Of small mushrooms have
lifted Q large stone. Indeed, plants
have been known to break the hardest
rocks. The island of .Aldabra, to the
northwest of Madagascar, is becoming
smaller and smaller through the action
Of the mangroves that grow along the
foot of the cliffs. They eat their way
into the rock in all directions, and into
the gaps thus formed the waves force
their way. In time they will probably
reduce the island to pieces.

There is no need Worrying along in
discomfort because of a disordered di-
gestion. Get a bottle of kodol for dys-
pepsia, and see what it will do for you.
kodol not only dlgests what you eat and
gives that tired stomach a needed rest,
but is a corrective of the greatest et1ici-
ency. kodol relieves Indigestion, dys-
pepsia, palpitation of the heart, hatulen-
ce, and sour stomach. kodol will make
your stomach young and healthy again.
You will worry just in the proportion
tha' your stomach worries you. Worry
means the loss OF ability to do your best.
Worry is to be avoided at all times. kc-
dol will take the worry out Of your stom-
