The Secret of Success
Genuine Merit Required TO Win the
Peoples Confidence.

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at
once drop out of sight and are soon
forgotten? The reason is plain-the
article did not fulfil the promises of
the manufacturer. This applies more
particularly to a medicine. A med
icinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as
like an endless chain system the
remedy is recommended by those who
have been cured, to those who are in
need Of t.
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says TTake
for example DR. Kilmers Swamp
Roota preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend for In almost every case
II shows immediate results, as many
of my customers testify. No other
kidney remedy that I know of has so
large a sale"
The success OF DR.. Kilmer's

ternoon, which was a pleasant affair.
The guest of honor was Henry ].

marks with funny stories of the south
which greatly amused his listeners.

pericnce in insurance work. Mr.. Shop
! pard spoke on industry as being the
main spring of an insurance mans
career and he urged his hearers that If
they wish 10 succeed TO be Industrious
Mr. Powell was the next speaker
and spoke on the higher ethics OF
life insurance. He said he believed that
the cause of life insurance is more
rapidly advanced by the extension of
the work the National Association Of
Underwriters was endeavoring to ac-
complish He urged the members Of
the local association to build up their
membership.
He said that business men seeking
insurance now want to deal with as
sociation men because they are sure
of a square deal and that they stand
for the right. He cited an instance i'm
which President Taft figured. The lat

that he believed the men who had is
sued the policies we're honest
Mr.. Powell urged his hearers to sink
differences and any petty jealousies
they may harbor, and give every fell

them they were not In the business
merely for the dollar but to render the
public a service. and the better the
service he added, the more the busi-
ness. The best way to accomplish this
he said was TO bring in more members.
He advised his hearers not TO knock
the other fellow and to talk only his
own company.

ANNEXATION; NEVERI.
CANADIAN PREMIER scoFFs AT
IDEA THAT MATTER is BEING
SERIOUSLY CONSIDERED.
air Wilfrid Laurier, In Addressing an
Audience Composed Of Many Of the
Great Men Of England, Handles
Question Without Gloves.

London.-The dinner OF the PHI
giims' society Tuesday night in honor
OF the colonial premiers was historic
because of the unexpected and note
worthy plain speaking by Sir Wilfrid
I.aurier, the premier Of Canada.
Sir Wilfrid, addressing an audience
composed of many Of the great men
of England, handled the annexation
question without gloves. He began
by expressing amazement that during
his three days stay in England he
had heard so many people of stand
ing voicing doubts concerning the de-
signs of the United States regarding
Canada. He scoffed at the idea of
annexation being seriously consider
ed on either side of the border. He
expressed in warm terms his admira-
ton for the people of the United
States, but said that as much as he
loved the American people, he loved
Great Britain better
Canada in sharing the continent
with the United States. he said, had
double interest in the treaty Of ar
bitraton between the United States
and the United Kingdom, and ex-
claimed dramatically:
Il thank God that the relations be-
tween the two peoples never were so
good as they are today"
The premier aroused enthusiasm
when he said that Canada and the
United States proposed to continue to
show the world that the two nations
with the longest boundary, extending
from ocean to ocean, could live in
peace and mutual respect, without
fortress, a soldier or gun on either
side Of that boundary.

fact that six of the eight members Of
the new cabinet have been chosen by
the revolutionists. but the agreement
records that President Diaz and Vice
