What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer'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 ne
cessity of being compelled TO go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-R OOt
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine

Artificial Gema.

Last year a German association
caused surprise to some scientists and
disbelief in others by the announce
ment that process had been discov-
cred by which most of the precious
stones could be produced by artificial
means.
Recently several official experts
have made an examination of about 40
of these artificial gems. In their re-
port to the Museum of Natural His
tory they say:
"Of all the stones we examined, we
can only call the artificial rubies q
direct success, but the imitation OF
this species is no new invention. We
therefore declare that there is moth

Great Man Broke Up the Most Pro.
found Social Frost.

l was lately told delightful story
of great statesman staying with a
humble and anxious host, who had in
vited party of simple and unimpor-
tant people to meet the great man.
The statesman came in late for din
ner, and was introduced to the party:
he made a series of old-fashioned
bows in all directions. but no one felt
in position to offer any observations
The great man, at the conclusion of
the ceremony, turned to his host, and
said, in tones that had often thrilled a
listening senate: What very con-
venient jugs you have in your bed
rooms. They pour well!" The social
frost broke up; the company were de-
lighted to find that the great man
was interested in mundane matters of
kind on which every one might ue
permitted to have an opinion, and the
conversation, starting from the
humblest conveniences of daily life.

Yes" cried the other one, where

from the castle. The speck finally dis
appeared behind clump of trees, and
when It emerged and drew up at the
station we saw what a stunning little
turnout IT was. The horse was as
fine as any you'd meet on the Lady's
Mile, the harness was clinking and
shining with ornaments, and the cart
and the groom's livery were faultless.

"Hullo, Murray!" said Vincent and

lightly from his high seat and came

His Devotion to Duty Rewarded BY
Strange Luxuries.

A Boston bulldog owned by George
II. Clapp was SO determined to cap
ture woodchuck which he had chased
into its den that he followed after and
stafd in the hole all night
When the dog had got his jaws
about the enemy he found that he
could not get out owing to the small
size of the animars hole.
Rather than lose his prey the dog
retained his hold on the woodchuck
over night. and was helped out by his
master in the morning. The dog was
nearly exhausted. and revived after
feeding and drinking in a curious man
ner.
He consumed about two quarts of
unguarded ice cream, which had been
set aside for party, and capped the
climax by failing into bucket of lem
