terminating the second war between
England and the United States,
known as the war of 1912.
Amsterdam. in Holland. is built
on piles driven far below the water
into the earth. The city is inter-
sected bv many canals, which are
spanncd by nearly 300 bridges, and
resembles Venice in the mingling
of land and water, though it is con-
siderablv larger than that city. The
canals divide the city, which is about
ten miles in circumference, into
ninety islands.
The city of Venice is built on
eighty islets, which are connected
by nearly 400 bridges. Canals serve
for streets in Venice and boats,
called gondolas, for carriages. The
bridges are, as q rule, very steep,
rising considerably in the middle,
but have easy steps. The circum-
ference of the city is about eight
miles. The Venetians joined the
Lombard league against the Ger
man emperor and in l177 gained a
great victory in defense Of Pope Al
exander III. over the feet of war
vessels headed by Otto, son of Fred
erick Barbarossa. In gratitude for
this victory the pope gave the Doge
Ziani a ring and instituted the world
famous ceremony of "Venice Mar
rying the Adriatic Sea-" In this
ceremony the doge, as the chief
ruler of Venice used to be termed,
with appropriate ceremonies drop
ped ring into the sea every year in
recognition of the wealth and trade
carried to Venice by the Adriatic.

"You are a daisy" is used by
Dickens in David Copperfeld' in
the sense of calling person daisy
in the way to express admiration
and at the same time to laugh at
ones credulity. Steerforth says to
young Copperfeld: David, my dai-
sy, you are so innocent of the world.
Let me call you my daisy, as it is 80
refreshing to find one in these cor
rupt days 90 innocent and unsophis-
ticated. Ny dear Copperfeld, the
daisies of the field are not fresher
than you"

The authority assumed by Nj

position of railroad commissioner
in changing the loute of tn

mighty Caughman, who in bis

issues his orders that the train
shall run from Sumter to Glib

maybe, when Mr. Banks offers for

BLOOD GETS SOUR.
Gives Advice and Tells Of Simple
Homo Mixture.


At this time of year, says a well.
known authority, the Kidneys become
weak, clogged and inactive, failing to
filter out the poisons and acids, which
sour the blood, causing not only facial
and bodily eruptions, but the worst
forms of Rheumatism, Nervous and
Stomach troubles, Backache and pain
full. annoying Urinary Affections.
1t is worth anyone's time now to get
from some good prescription pharmacy
the following ingredients: Fluid Ex-
tract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Com
pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix
by shaking we'll in bottle and take
in teaspoonful doses after your meals
and at bedtime.
This simple homemade mixture will
force the Kidneys to normal, healthy
action, SO they will filter and strain all
uric acid and poisonous waste matter
from the blood, and expel this in the
urine, at the same time restoring the
full blood count"-that is, 95 per cent.

APPENDICITIS.
Not at All Necessary to Operate In
Many Cases.

Automobiles and Appendicitis scare
some people before they are hit.
Appendicitis is often caused by too
much starch In the bowels. Starch is
hard to digest and clogs up the diges-
tive machinery--also tends to form
cakes in the cecum. (That's the blind
pouch at entrance to the appendix)
A N. H. girl had appendicitis, but
lived on milk for awhile-then Grape
Nuts and got well without an opera
tion.
She says: Five years ago while at
school, suffered terribly with consti-
patton and Indigestion" (Too much
starch, white bread, potatoes, ETC.,
which she did not digest.)
"Soon after left school had an at
tack Of appendicitis and for thirteen
weeks lived on milk and water. When
! recovered enough to eat solid food
there was nothing that would agree
with me, until friend recommended
Grape-Nuts.
"When began to eat Grape-Nuts /
weighed 9S lbs, but / soon grew to 115
lbs. The distress after eating left me
entirely and now am like new per-
son.
"a little Grape-Nuts dissolved in hot
water or milk would have been much
better for this case than milk alone,

SETTING OUT TREES.
Yearly Practice of Planting Trees a
Good One.

On our farm we have made 1t a
practice every spring to set out some
trees. We choose this season of the
cess in getting them to grow than we
have by planting them in the fall This
holds good not only with forest trees,
but also with fruit trees and even
strawberries.
OF late years we have been putting
our trees along the highway and now
we have some beautiful trees growing
there. Some of those we set our first
are now six or seven inches in dame
ter, having made this growth in the
last Is years. And these, too, being
hard or sugar naples, have grown as
slowly as any trees, almost, that one
might choose to set out. In our state,
New York, writes e. L. Vincent in
Farmers Review, there is a state
law providing for certain tax deduc-
tions for setting out trees along the
highway, but we have never taken ad-
vantage of it, being very well satisfied
with the added beauty, as well as the
prospective usefulness to us of the
trees.
Not far from our place there is a
farm with so many trees of the variety
mentioned, the sugar naples, along
the road that the owner can tap quite
a sugar orchard right there II he
wishes to. The trees have gained q
good size now, so that they would not
be materially injured by careful tap
ping. There is this great advantage
in sugar bush Of this sort 1t is
easy of access. One need not travel
around over rough roads to do the
work. 1t is always neat and clean and
the work of gathering the sap is not
hard. Some day we will all pay more
attention to this matter of setting out
trees than we do now, and it will be a
great thing for the country when we
do.
