If The Herald published every
thing sent to it by various organiza-

be no room left for either advertis-

good roads associations, the medical
associations, dead head news "agen-

government, which food the Office
with matter which may be used if
desired" All of these have high
salaried men to write the articles,
but never a cent to pay the news

tising. Of course, unless there is
genuine news in the articles, none
are printed-and it is mighty seldom
there is any news. Most of it is veil

A WARNING TO MANY
Some Interesting Facts About
Kidney Troubles

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the con-
dition of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases
of serious illness, makes a chemical
analysis of the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are
doing their work properly, the other
organs cannot readily 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 statistics, Bright's disease
which is really an advanced form of
kidney trouble, caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1918, in the State
of New York alone. Therefore, it
behooves us to pay more attention
to the health of these most important
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, in most cases, is
soon realized, according to sworn
statements and verified testimony of
those who have used the remedy.

quire attention. and wish a sample

When 1t kained Floss.

A remarkable fall from the heav-
ems Of large quantities OF what is
described as meteoric floss took place
at Hea.dsburg. The shower, which
began between I and a. M, and
reached it's maximum about 10 o'clock,
was seen by all the inhabitants OF
the town.
According to an eyewitness, the ma
terial appeared high in the heavens,
in a clear sky, as a mass of stars,
lustrous metallic sheets and silvery
ropes. 1t reached the earth in va
rious shapes and sizes, ranging from
minute particles to sheets twenty feet
square. 1t fell in such quantities
that long ropes and masses of it hung
from the telephone and telegraph
wires.
When the substance reached the
warm earth it began at once to con-
tract into fibrous masses, resemb bling
flossy asbestos, though tests proved
that it was not that mineral. Most
Of it soon disappeared, though sam
pies were saved and sent to Director
Campbell, of the Lick observatory,
and to Prof. Tito Alippi, director of
the observatory at Urbano, Italy.

No action has been taken by the

not play the Star Spangled Banner in
a medley with other pieces. The meet
ing CT the union was held yesterday,
but owing to the absence of the sec
Rotary, George Baxter, who had the
letter in his possession, it was impos-
sible for the union to take any action
in the matter.
The members of the union will give

request OF the D. A. R. will be con-
sidered, and it is probable that the re-
quest will be complied with.
