sharp retorts on the part Of the very

Water at Meals.

Until lately the doctors. who geneTl
ally disagree, have displayed practical
unaninity on water drinking at or
with meals. They have discouraged
il as deleterious-the theory b ing
that the water diluted tina gastric
juice and impaired digestion.
But the desire to drink at meals is
so strong ia auimals and natural"
human beings that to many laymen
the promptiugs of Dame Nature has
seemed safer guide than the in
junction Of the doctors. A few
physicians timidlY BEGAN to side with
the laymeD, and some Investigations
and expe iments were made here and
there. The result Is that at least a
respectable minority of eminent
doctors and medical organs have
reversed themselves and their advice.
Vt seems to be quite conclusively
shown" says one authority, after a
discussion or recent studies aud tests,
that 10 the normal indiv dual digest
ion is at least not imr aired by the
drir king of water with meals" 10
other words, Dame Nature wins a
moderate victory. 1t may be unsafe
to druk too much water al meals, but
1T is not unsafe to yield to appetite
and drink, say, pint of water during
dinner or lunch.
AS to other periods and times Of
the day, drink as much water as you
can, and even cultivate The habit 80
as to increase your capacity and de-
sire for pure, wholesome water. la
the summer plenty of water inside
and out, should be the rule. The
Letlthiest people are great consumers
OF water; individuals induced to
change their habits by friends have
often marveled at the beneficial effect
of mere water drinking in th e. ir
own cases. And here In Chicago, for
tunately, the water is gcoo and "rea-
sonabiy safe" now even when not
boiled. Chicago Record

The Cause Of Many
Sudden Deaths.

tack the vital organs, causing catarrh OF
the bladder, brick-dust or sediment in
the urine, head ache, back ache, lame
back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by proper treatment of the kid
neys. Swamp-Root corrects inability to
hold urine and scalding painin passingit,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through
the day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp-Root the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by ali druggists in ffty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle and book that tells all
about it, both sent free by mail. Address,
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

any mistake, but remember the name,
Swamp Root, and don't let dealer sell
you something in place of Swamp Root
if you do you will be disappointed.

by the prices paid fJr dairy stock at

bull was sold for $1,000 while the
highest priced COW was knocked down
