the bladder, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by CELL
Bladder troubles almost always result
from a arrangement of the kidneys and
cure is obtained quickest by proper
treatment of the kidneys. If You are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to go often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
night. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, DR.. Kill
mer & Co., Binghainton, N. Y. When
writing mention reading this generous
offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. Y, on every
bottle.

4 BIRDS BALLR 5oM.

Whore the Cock O. the Rock Performs
Like the WhirIins Dervisli.
Dancing is by no means confined to
quadrupeds. A writer in the Strand
says that it is the principal play of
many birds.
Perhaps the finest Of bird dancers
is the South American cock o the
rock. These birds have regular dane
Ing places, level spots which they keep
clear Of sticks and stones.
A dozen or more of the birds assem-

slow and stately steps. then gradually
more and more rapidly until he IL

tired out, he sinks down, hops out OF
the ring and another takes his place.
Some Of the quail tribe are great
dancers, and so are the American
sand hill cranes. It is most ludic,
rous sight to watch crane dancing:
he is 80 desperately solemn over the
whole performance. He looks like .
shy young man who has just learned
to waltz and is rather ashamed OF the
accomplishment +.

CAPE HUNTING DOGS.

Large AnteIopes Easily Ruin Down BY
Pack Of These Animals.
A specimen of the Cape hunting dog,
Lycaon pictus, has lately been added
to the menagerie in the London Zoo
logical gardens. 1t is an animal which
does not take kindly to captivity and
the individuals that from time to time
have reached the collection, have ever
been short lived.
This species bears strong resem-
blance to hyena, says the Rhodesia
Herald, not only in its markings, but
in the general appearance. It. is a tall
dog, fairly slim in build, and with long
limbs. The broad and rather fiat head
ends in short muzzle; the ears are
very large.
The ground color of the coat, which
is rather scantily haired is yellowish;
the markings, which are disposed
about the body and limbs in very irs
regular manner, are short streaks ana
blotches of black, white and gray. The
tail is of a fair length, somewhat
thiclsly haired, and ends in whitish
tuft The muzzle is black, and a black
stripe runs down between thu ayes.
The Cape hunting dog has wide
range in Africa south AID east of the
Sahara Desert. 1t is wonderfully
swift-footed and hunts it's prey in reg
ular packs. Large aDteiopes are easily
run down by these pacI4s and domestic
sheep ana cattle need strong protec-
tim against the depredations of the
'hyena dog

ger pay for overworked examiners.
There is such a flood of new devices
pouring into the patent ONCE as was
never seen before. The examiners are
fairly swamped and are a full year
behind in their work.
Naturally enough, motors and sub
marine and aerial navigating devices
lead the list Modern man insists
upon flying, and the inventor who adds
speed to his passing to and fro upon
the earth, in the air, or In or under
the water is certain of his reward.
The inventors are no believers In
the early coming Of peace among the
nations, for improvements upon weap-
ons and new explosives are well nigh
as numerous as new motors. Yet with
all this cunning for gain and racing
for fame on the part Of the inventors
the chances are that some unconsid-
cred tribe like the wooden ball with
rubber string or the globe catch for
vomen's purses will win the largest
rewards in the future as in the past.

Mrs. Sprasue Entertains

A large number of ladies were made
happy, yet puzzled, over the dainty
invitations sent to them on March Is
by Mrs. G. M. Sprague, to meet at her
house on the following Saturday.
They were OF the usual form with the
following note attached:
"Bring some article that you no
longer need but which someone else
may want"
What shall it be? That was the
question. One lady telephoned that
che intended to take her husband.
"Wrap him up and tie him tight"
was the reply.
Mrs. Sprague, the hostess was as
sisted in receiving and serving her
guests by Mrs. J. F Wright, Van aunt
from Mantcrv;lle; Mrs. Clara Paine
OF Long Prairie, and Miss Esther
Sprague.
A profusion of delicately shaded
pink carnations decorated the luxuri-
GUS home.
Baskets containing many packages
were passed around with the injunc-
ton: "If you don't get what you like.
trade with someone eise." It is inn
possible in our limited space to give
even glimpse of the lively scene
which followed. It made one think
| OF Exchange on Wall street" with a
lot of fun thrown in.
Mrs. Sprague has certainly upheld
the reputation the ladies OF our city
sustains for original and unique en-
tertaining.

Sans souci

After all, parties with men in at
enhance are pleasanter than those
with only ladies. At least that is the
opinion of every member of the Sans
Souci circle.
About month ago Mrs. ]. Fred
Cooper and Mrs. F. s. Parker decided
to unite forces and entertain the circle
husbands as well as the ladies at a
6 o'clock dinner at the home of Mrs.
Cooper, and it was INCREASINGLY de-
clared afterward that there was more
fun at that evening circle than at any
other three afternoon circle gatherings
this season.
With the memory OF this pleasant
evening in mind, Mrs. G. A. Morse
and Miss Ada Wilcox decided to enter
tain together and include "the men,"
On Thursday evening, March 81, at
6 o'clock every member of the "circle"
and every husband who could pos
sibly attend, were on hand at the
home OF Mrs. G. A. Morse, where
sumptuous dinner awaited them, every
dish of which, from soup to ice cream,
had been prepared with reference to
the tastes of "the men,"
After dinner the gentlemen repaired
to Mr.. Morse's eden" for short
smoke social, and the balance of the
evening was spent in cards and finch.
These parties are the cause of the
commended expression to be found on
the faces of the Sans Souci men these
days, for now they are quite sure that
they "belong."
