The prince object is to secure the
erection of a building on site fur
nished by the people of this city and
county. This site, the approximate
cost of which will be $4,000, is to be
purchased by the subscriptions, large
and small, of the people of Columbia
and Maury county. Some location in
the city of Columbia convenient for
its purposes and we'll situated is to be
ecured by these public subscriptions,
title to remain in the names of sub
cribers until practical consumation
iof the project. The National Jack
and Jennett Association will be invit-
ed and urged to join with the Column
bia and Maury county subscribers
and erect on the site modern four
to six story building which shall be
! in effect the national headquarters of
the Jack and Jennett Association.
This building will cost $4,000 to $780,.

will be asked to join with the local
subscribers in providing a building
which will be, in addition to the
headquarters for jacks and jennettts
for, mules, cattle, sheep and all live

and calculation convinces all that il
will be more than self-supporting, ant
that it will be both an advertisement
and testimonial by Tennesseans to thu

PASTOR LAUDs HOME LIFE.
Revival of Family Life Would Do
More Than Proposed Reforms.

maintained in accommodating antiques and
curios. Although the NCtional Museum,
the United States Museum. the Smith
sonian Institution, Medical Museum, and
Congressional Library are filled with
things Of interest, each department has
its own little museum or collection that
it strings along its corridors for the bene-
fit of tourists. In some of the buildings
there is not space enough to show the
collections and they have been consigned
to storage rooms.
In the War Department, for instance
the upper floors are crowded with ex-
hibits. Not only can one see the uni
forms worn by United States soldiers at
different periods, but one can see exhibits
of the sculptors' work. of the artist, and
models of the defenses along the coasts
and inland waters. All these exhibits are

placed in the corridors Of the building.
usually on the top floor.
In the State Department wing Of the
State. War. and Navy Building portraits
Of former Secretaries of State, Senators.
and foreign diplomats adorn the walls.
In one instance the portrait of a foreign
diplomat has been relegated to a mes
senger's room.
On the Navy side the corridors are filled
with models of the first and last step in
naval architecture and construction Sub
marines, aeroplanes, wireless cruisers,
and the navy hospital ship. the Solace,
can be seen in these models. The model
OF the Arkansas cost the government S25,-
600.
In the Treasury Department the ac-
emulation of paintings of the former
Secretaries has overfiowed from the walls
OF the offices of the Secretary and his
assistants into the corridors adjacent to
the Secretary's Office. The Revenue-cut-
ter Service, which also is in the Treas
ury Department, has an interesting ex-
hibit, but only part of it can be seen, as
there is not sufficient space in the build
ing to display ii.
The Patent Office locks its exhibits in
one room where the general public can
not find them, that is to say, it is so
near the top OF the building, and in such
an out Of the way corner that half the
clerks do not know that the government
pays four clerks 5000 a year salary to
keep up the exhibit and prevent curio
hunters from carrying away valuable
models of patents. The Indian Office and
the Land Office each has exhibits, but
they also are in such unfrequented places
that the average tourist never would be
able to find them.
The need of hall of records. or a
building to house these exhibits, has been
suggested in a request for an appropria-
tion, now before Congress. No action
has been taken on it, and it seems that
the measure will ''die" in committee.

DR.. Page Takes House

Rumor has 1t that the American Am
bassador to Italy, Mr.. Thomas Nelson
Page, has at last leased a residence In
Rome. 1t has proved no easy matter to
reach decision, for two reasons: Mrs.
Page wished to have a garden, and the
most exaggerated rumors had got about
in regard to the Pages wealth.
Hence the sums asked for inferior
places were enormous. II Is fixed idea
OF every Italian that every American is
rolling in money and does not mind part
ing with It. While the former may be
true OF Mr.. Page. he is certainly a man
who would not allow himself to be swim

A WARNING TO MANY
Some Interesting Facts Regarding
Health Statistics.

Few people realize to what extent theii
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases OIL
serious illness, makes chemical analysis
of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot be
brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics. Bright's disease which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in
1910, in the State Of New. York alone.
Therefore, it behooves us to pay more
to the health of these most i'm
portant organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as a kidney remedy
is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
Kidney, Liver and Bladder Remedy.
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation is soon realized. It stands the
highest for its remarkable record of cures.
If you feel that your kidneys require
attention, and wish a sample bottle, write
to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, n.
Y. Mention this paper and they will
gladly forward If to you absolutely free,
by mail
Swamp-Root is sold by every druggist
in bottles of two sizes Soc. and 81 90.
