Saved FromDangeroa OPERA
tion--Neighbor Advised What
to Do For Bladder Trouble.

Wv
/ too, wish to add my testimonial
to the thousands you no doubt have,
and will tell you what your great
medicine did for me.
Several months ago I was taken
very sick with bladder trouble, had
intense pains and suffered greatly, at
times / could not stand on my feet
or sit in a chair and Oft | was forced
to cry out with pain.
I consulted two doctors who gave
me different kinds of medicine, which
did nae nc good. 1t seemed al though
the more of their medicine 1 took.
the worse I became. The doctors
seemed to be greatly puzzled over
gmy case and after holding a consult
alton. | was told that I had q severe
cease of inflammation of the bladder
and an operation was very neces-
ssary.
I was being prepared to be taken
to the hospital, when a neighbor
came to nay house and said, why
don't you try q bottle of DR. kilmer's
Swamp-Root." I was willing to try
anything to get relief from my sur
fering. My wife bought a bottle of
your medicine which 1 began taking
and 500 noticed a change for the
better. I continued taking 1t and
got better right along, my appetite
returned and ! was able to resume
work.
I have used about fourteen bot
Ties of Swamp-Reot and know that
had 4 not taken it, / would have
been operated on, and perhaps never
recovered. / never fail to tell nay
friends about DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root as | know It will save many
people from suffering and perhaps,
az In nay case, o dangerous opera
tion.

MIR. Holt concludes with this cheer

lision among the aristOcracy, anl
more among the mediocracy today

The cooperative fruit associations

ness Is becoming menaced by indie
pendent buyers and commission
houses trying to get foothold in the
organized districts. says the Denver
Field and Farm. With all their Or
ganization the best OF them got a rot
ten deal on their last crop and much
complaint is heard from one end of
the country to the other about the
poor prices obtained. We cannot un-
derstand why any right-thinking fruit
grower should ever consign his crop
through independent buyers, even
though they may be good, reputable
firms. In the first place. 1t is In d.
rect opposition to the system of CO.
operative marketing. and tends to de-
stroy the efficiency of the organiza-
ton. One careless practice is to al
low growers in an association to mar
ket outside If they so desire and n
penalty should be laid against every
man who does this and at least a cent
a box should be paid into the associa-

whole business is misrepresentation

HOW TO ARRANGE GOOD MENU
Recorded Study Of Food Elements 10
Best Way for Housewife to
Avoid Errors.

Every housekeeper should be per-
fectly familiar with the three food
products. This Is the foundation Of
menu-making. Proteids, carbohy-
drates and fats are the three divisions
into which all foods are classed. Pro-
teids are the muscle-builders and are
found in meat. beans. peas, eggs and
nuts. Carbohydrates are the starches
and are found in cereals, sugar and
starchy foods. These foods produce
fat and energy. Fats. such as oils,
butter. lard, etc., give heat to the
body. A general knowledge of these
food properties as they are found in
various foods underlies successful
cooking as well as menu-making.
A good menu is a well-balanced me-
ciples. A practical study Of these
foods Is the best way to avoid errors
in diet.
Do not serve several foods Of the
same composition at the same meal
such as potatoes. rice and macaroni.
Do not serve bean or pea soup with
roast meat. salmon salad and custard.
Try to vary the regular diet. II

Do not eat too much food out Of

serve soup made of peas. nuts or

To avoid serving several foods OF

group to consider is that Of proteid
food: Group one-meats. cheese
eggs. nuts, dried peas. beans.
Any of these foods can be used for
meat. or II nuts. beans or peas are
used for a puree. meat can safely be
left out of the menu.
For every meal select food from
