beautiful song descriptive of the pill

visited by Him, the River Jordan, Sea
Of Galilee, and Dead Sea, and of to the
west, the Great Sea with Tyre and ST.
don on its coasts. When the song was
ended, very fair map of Palestine as
it was in the times of the Savior, wa,
on the board. The little girl sang clear
" and beautifully to the delight of all
The words were sung to the popular
tune of civil war days-"Maryland, My

A FOUR-LECCED CHICKEN.

A. NJ. Newport found young chick
en- in his chicken yard the first of the
week which was something Of n curios-
ity and which, had it lived, might have
brought Mr. Newport something like n
small fortune. The chicken is well
formed and has four perfectly develop
ed legs. IL is in glass jar in the Wan
ser & Hamilton drug store and may be
seen there. The Herald trusts that
this sort OF breed OF poultry doesn't
become the prevailing kind, for it is
hard enough to keep garden growing
with the two-legged kind at large. -

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lots Of water and stop eating
meat for a while IL your Bladder
troubles you.

When you wake up with bacl<ache and
dull misery in the kidney region IL gen
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort TO flter II
from the blood and they become sort OF
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous ws9te,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells, your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather IL bad
YOU have rheumatic twinges. The urine
IL cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
10 aeek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult n good. reliable Physi-
clan az once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces OF Jad Salts; take
a tablespoonful in a glass OF water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneye win then act fine. This famouf
salts is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and has been used for generations tt
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
also 10 neutralize acids in the urine so i
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regula
meat eaters. IL is inexpensive, canno
iniure and makes q delightful, efier
vescent lithia-wster drink.

FOUND RUINS OF HOUSE BUILT LONG
AGO.

Last week while Perry Brite and
men on his ranch we're working on sew
eral OF the ruined buildings about his
place, getting matters Strengthened up
from the Hood, they happened along
one OF the big banks about twenty feet
high cut out by the recent rayages OF
turbulent water. In this bank they
noticed strange regularity and i'm
mediately commenced an investigation
They discovered Immediately that the
cut out place had at one time been a
house, for the wall is of hewn rock and
a chimney, round 10 shape, is still in
tact in one corner of the building
The rock had been taken from the hill
nearby and is cemented with a mix
ture made from the soil thore. j. w
Jordan, who has seen the remains, says
the wall is perfect in every way and
that the remains OF the house are 10
Gated short distance east of the
house in which Mr.. and Mrs. Brite
lived at the time OF the flood.
The saarchers found that the walls
were covered with a heavy substance
somewhat resembling tar paper, which
must have been hides used to adorn
the walls. Ashes were found in the
fireplace and bones were discovered.
although it was impossible to tell
whether Of human or animal. A piece
of cloth, apparently fine velvet, was
also discovered. The walls were in
tact on the north aud west sides, also
the chimney and fireplace in the cor
ner, and there is absolutely no ques-
ton but that men of intelligence built
and lived in the house at one time.
The interesting feature of it all is
that the house is located several feet
lower than the house formerly occu-
| pied by Mr.. and Mrs Brite aud was
covered so completely by the sand and
dirt that the old bank had the regular
appearance of having been there since
the creation. Jess Dean OF Richfeld,
who has lived in Morton county for
thirty-seyen years, and every other old
timer known in that part of the coun.
try, claim that to the best of their
knowledge the old buildings which the
| flood washed away were III Only ones
ever built there in al that time. The
Jap Beatty dugout was the only origi-
nal building they ever knew, aud that
was one the food took away for Perry
Brite. Concerning the house the river
unearthed, Dean nor anyone else has
not the slight est knowledge
The wall is we'll preserved and the
chimney is in good order 1t would
be interesting to know just who built
this building and when. Evidently
the bank, where it stood, was consider
ably lower at one time, aud a flood
like that encountered by Mr.. and Mrs
Brite buried the house and anyone il
it go completely in sand and mud tha
all remembrance of ii was blotted for
ever from the memory of man. II

WORKS MEN
TEN HOURS
WATER COMPANY CHARGES
HIGH RATE TO CONSUMERS
AND WORKS MEN LONG
HOURS-THE GAS COMPANY
GETS MORE WORK FROM
MEN IN EIGHT HOURS.

A practical object lesson favoring
the eight-hour day for laborers is to
be seen on South Hoyt avenue, where
the water company and the gas COM
pany has Shovel crews" at work on
their mains. Both corporations pay
the same wages, viz: 1925 a day, but
the water company works it's men ten
hours a day while the others earn the
same amount with two hours less
work.
That the eight-hour men are doing
as much work as the same number of
their less fortunate neighbors on the
other job is apparent to any one who
has watched progress of the work.
The foreman for the gas company,
when asked for information on the sub
ject, said:
observed that the average man work
ing eight hours a day will do as much
or more in a week than the one work
ing ten hours. Only an exceptionally
strong man can stand the pace for
ten-hour-a-day week. l have never
been able to see where anything was
gained by working men more than
eight hours where continuous heavy
eXertion is required"

near in this great nation have now
abandoned their former views and look
upon Washington as one of the most
