LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
They are Closely Observing Public
Health Conditions

An examining physician for one of
the prominent Life Insurance Compa-
MES. in an interview on the subject
made the astonishing statement that
the reason why so many applicants
for insurance are rejected is because
kidney trouble is so common to the
American people, and the large ma
jority OF applicants do not even sus-
peet that they have the disease.
He states that judging from his
own experience and reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
preparation that has probably been
more successful in relieving and cur
ing these diseases than any remedy
known. The mild and healing infiu.
ence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. II stands the highest
for its remarkable record of cures.
We find that Swamp Root is strict
ly an herbal compound and we would
advise our readers who feel In need
OF such remedy to give II a trial. 1t
is on sale at all drug stores in bottles
of two sizes-fifty cents and one do
lar
However, ii you wish first to test
its wonderful merits, send to DR.. Kill
mer & Co, Binghamton, n. Y, for a
sample bottle, absolutely free. When
writing be sure and mention the Ben
uington Daily Banner.

The Adams Hardware Co
HARLAN MUST GO TO JAIL
Manager of Lumber Company Con-
victed Of Peonaee

Washington, Jan. president Taft
has denied an application for commu-
tatlon OF sentence in the case of w.
s. Harlan, manager of great lum-
Der and turpentine company, doing
business in Florida and Alabama who
was indicted and convicted on a
charge of conspiracy to violate the
peonage statute of Florida. Harlan
must serve eighteen months mpris-
onment, in addition to paying fine
OF $4,000.
The offense for which Harlan was
convicted grew out of the alleged eff
fort of his company to obtain $50 la
borers from New York, including a
number OF Hungarian. Bulgarian and
other immigrants. They were taken
in parties OF twelve to twenty-five
by sea to Savannah, thence to the
company's plant.
The evidence clearly shows said
the president in his opinion that
on the way from Savannah to the
company's settlement number at
tempted to escape and were physlc-
ally detained and brought TO the place
of work. 1t is kind of offense that
is regarded lightly in some communi-
ties. If permitted to live at all II
will spread rapidly its demoralizing
influence. When, therefore, man OF
high business standing and large en-
terprises is convicted of the offense
he punishment should be such as to
deter others from the practice. Fines
are not effective against men OF
wealth. Imprisonment is necessary

ADVANTAGES OF.
BACHELOR GIRLS
Live Longer Than Married WOm-
en-, According to Statistics.

- Vow comes the latest rap at
mi matrimony. Dr. Sarah Nc
" Mutt proves by statistics that
single women live longer
than married ones.
This will come as a shock to every
one but the married ladies who have
been heard to murmur. speaking Of
experiences with their husbands, II
wonder how ever lived through itp'
The old fashioned old maid, accord
ing TO DR.. McNutt, was not especially
long lived because she worked herself
into a depressed condition owing 10
her single state and its attendant hu-
initiation. Also she was lot more
idle than was healthy for her. But
nowadays all that is changed. The
bachelor girl is no object of pity. In.
deed, sometimes she is envied. She
is no longer a dependent in some rel
ative's house, the subject OF sights
and sneers. She earns decent In
come, sometimes more than that OF the
man she could marry, and she has
plenty of work, plenty Of friends and
plenty of recreation with which to
keep her busy and happy.
There is no time in the up to date
single woman's life to go into a de-
cline or to find out disease symptoms
The married woman, on the other
hand, apart from the dangers incident
to raising a family, has the worry OF
the increased cost Of living with an
increasing family to drag her down.
She has also the disposition OF the
modern husband to contend with, the
club habit, the cocktail habit, the j
o'clock In the morning habit, to weep
over.
she has in nine cases out Of ten O
mother-in-law to bedevil her into a
condition bordering upon insanity
and sundry relatives in law OF the I'm
pecunious and improvident order to as
sess her husband whenever they run
short and bite holes into the house
keeping money.
She has the growing children to wor
ry over, and when they finally grow
I'D and have love affairs she worries
more than ever.
