Some Things That
Make Law Venerable. !"

Reforms IN JUDICIAL procedure are
being much discussed in recent years
and particularly IN Florida AS bear
ing on the subject the following legal
form for breach of promise suit in
Rhode Island is more or less pertinent:
"A B., being then sole and unTnar-
ried, in consideration that the plaintiff
(then also sole and unmarrfed) at the
specific insistence and request of the
said defendant that she would marry
and take TO husband the said defend
ant when thereunto requesteds her, the
said defendant then and there forth
with promised the said plaintiff that
he would marry and take her to wife
when thereunto requested and al
though the said plaintiff, conhding in
the aforesaid promise OF the said de-
PENDANT, hath always from thence
hitherto refused TO marry or contract
with any other man whatsoever and
still remains sole and unmarried; and
always from the time OF making said
promise was ready and willing and
offered to marry and take to husband
The said defendant. viz, on - at the
said. yet the said defendant, not
regarding his said promise, but con-
irving to deceive and deframd the said
tally to hinder her from the preferment
snd good fortune she would have met
with by such marriage, hath not taken
her, the said plaintiff. to wife and
after that time, hath been thereto re-
que sted by the said plaintiff. but the
said defendant hath always hitherto
refused so to do. to the damage OF
The plaintiff in $4,000, as said In her

In England the same form would
have read something like this:

baIIy promised TO marry plaintiff.
August 8, 1907. he married another
woman. Plaintiff claims ten thousand
pounds damages
But then. you know, the English peo-
lie are slaves to form and precedent
and useless ceremonial. and their brief
and explicit legal forms could hardly
be expected to appeal to the high class
lawyers who are responsible for our
court procedure In the United States

Obstinate Acne
Quickly Yields
Fine Remedy that Clears
Skin of PimpIes on Cheeks,
Temples, Sides of Nose
and Chin.

Acne attacks the glandular structure
Of the skin, more particularly those
tiny glands that secrete fat.
And it is here that S. S. s., the famous
blood purifier is most active in its
influence.
There is one ingredient in S. S. s., the
purpose of which it is to stimulate the
cells in the tissues that they select
from the blood the nutriment that
makes new skin and thus eliminates
all irritants, acids and parasites that
infiame the glands. There is q natural
tendency of the fine network of blood
vessels in the skin to throw OF impuri-
ties, but where a persistent infiamma-
tory process has invaded the skin, the
natural repair work of the blood is in
terfered with. It requires the stimu-
.ating activity of S. s. S. to overcome
such morbid conditions. If you have
been troubled with acne, do not despair
IF a cure.
You can get s S. S. in any drug
store, but insist upon having it. The
great Swift Laboratory in Atlanta, Ga,
prepares this famous blood purifier,
and you should take no chance by per-
hitting anyone to recommend a sub
stitute. And if you blood condition is
such that you would like to consult a
specialist freely, address the Medical
Dept, The Swift Specific Company, 1s1

Roy. n. N, Sept. S.-The attention Of
the dry farmers in this section is being
directed TO the cattle industry, in
GLIDING dairying. The experiences Of
the last three or four years with wheat
growing and straight farming has
shown the futility of combining effort
TO this branch Of farming, inasmuch
as the average yield IS not sufficient
to make II pay. While last seasons
wheat crop showed an average Of Is
TO IS bushels TO the acre, the crop It's
season will not run ever five bushels,
and the expense of handling, together
with the prohibitive freight rates, make
1t clear that the most profitable crops
for this section are Milo maize, cane
and other fodder fed in the field, or
through silos. About Is silos have al
ready been erected on this mesa and
as many more will be built in a few
months.
Almost every farmer who has the
means is investing in dairy stock and
