Life Insurance Companies
rRey Are Closely Observing Public
Health Conditions.

An examining physician for one Of
the prominent Life Insurance Com
panles, in an interview on the sub
iect, made the astonishing statement
that the reason why so many appli-
eants for Insurance are rejected is be-
caiise kidney trouble IS so common to
the American people, and the large
mljorfty Of applicants do not even
suspect they have the disease.
He states that judging from his
own experience and reports from
druggists who are constantly in di-
rect touch with the public, there is
one preparation that has probably
been more successful in relieving and
curing these diseases than any rem
edy %nown. THE mild and healing
influence Of Dr. Kilmer's Swmap-
Root is soon realized. 1t stands the
highest for its remarkable record OF
cures.
We find that Swamp-Root is strict
ly. an herhal compound and we would
advise our readers who feel in need
of such remedy to give it trial.
1t is on. sale at all drug stores in bot
ties of two sizes-dfty-cent and one
dollar.
However, II you wish first to, test its
wonderful merits. send to DR. Kibner

eral years It has been customary for.
the assessor or his assistants to begin

were given practically SIX months TO

session Of the state legislature the
law was changed 50 as to begin as-

July. that assessors and assistants
will have but three months to do the,

Following is the section Of law

1 Assessors throughout the state
have entered complaints on account
of the change, as all feel that there
is not time enough allowed to COM
pIete the law. County assessors are
liable to a fine of not less than $50
and not more than $500 for failure
to have the land books made out and
in the hands OF the various munich
palities in their county in July, aud
they must be completed in time for

while the farmer has more feed and
other stock on hand the first of the

law was changed in 1907, farmers
throughout the state have been COM

Mr. Mcmahon adds that he has in

MISS BRADNA, TRAPEzE ARTIsT.

American girls are too afraid 10
risk their neclxs; that is why the cir
Gus of today is composed in large part
of European artists"
SO says Ella Bradna, a beautiful
Swiss girl. who with Fred Derrick, an
English rider of note, figures in the
Barnum and Bailey circus program.
She bases her claim upon the fact that
there are few American women in the
sawdust ring today.
Almost all the circus performers
are Of foreign birth and training ac-
cording to Miss Bradna who has been
a circus equstrienne from her early
girlhood as we're her mother and
grandmother before her.
THE women in this country are too
timid to risk their necks, either on the
trapeze OF in other lines Of arenic en-
deavor, and 80 they seek positions,
largely in the chorus in theatrical
companies, where the great majority
neither progress, nor profit by their
experience" she says.
There is more chance for promo
ton and certainly greater distinction
in being a performer with the circus
than in the chorus of a musical show
81 admire the woman who is not
afraid, and ] advise some Of the
chorus girls who are plodding alons
in musical comedy with small chance
of ever getting an important part t.
give it up and take up the circus life.
Miss Bradna will be with the cir
Gus in Wilmington on Friday next.

The International Lumber and De-

the local . Court to the
stockholders in Delaware who recent
ly entered aiiidavits asking receiv-
ership for the company on the ground
that sit u insolvent, inefilciently man
aged and operating as gigantic
fraud"
The answers are substantially a de-
nial of the charges and challenge to
the complainant stockholders TO come
forward and prove their charges. The
officers of the company declare that a
conspiracy has been concocted against
them by a clique of individuals, who
have schemed together TO defame q
company that has been conducting a
perfectly legitimate business for
years.
The hearing for a receivership will
be held on May l3. Similar action is
also pending in the United States Dis
