THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win the
Peoples Confidence.

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out of sight and are soon forgot.
ten? The reason is plain-the ar.
ticle did not fulfil the promises of
the manufacturer This applies more
particularly to medicine. A medic
inal preparation that has real cura-
tive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy
is recommended by those who have
been benefited, to those who are in
need of it.
A prominent druggist says, "Take
for example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
a preparation have sold for many
years and never hesitate to recon-
mend for in almost every case it shows
excellent results, as many of my Gus
toners testify. No other kidney rem
edy that I know of has so large q
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who
have used the preparation, the sue
cess of DR.. Kilmer's' Swamp-Root is
due to the fact that it fulfils almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liv-
4er and bladder disease, corrects urin-
ary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle Of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address

BY F. A. Mitchell

1t so happened that King Caspar OF
Walkaria and Queen Bertha of Finger
land inherited their kingdoms when
very young. Their domains Joined,
but they had never met, for during
their childhood their fathers had been
at continual warfare. When these
two kings died-abOut the same time
the cabinets of both countries decid-
ed to make a match between the young
king and the young queen.
Queen Bertha would not consent to
the match without some acquaintance
with the man she was to marry. She
therefore insisted on their meeting in
one Of her palaces near the border
line between the two kingdoms. the
king to be attended by three men and
the queen by three women. To this
the king gladly assented.
Before leaving for the rendezvous
the queen said to maid of honor,
who was also her bosom friend: II
wish you to exchange places with
me at this meeting, you to personate
me, to personate you. This will be
easy, for l have purposely limited the
number Of my attendants so that there
are only two besides ourselves to be
in the secret"
When the king met the substitute
queen, whose name was Catherine,
he was we'll pleased with her, for not
only the queen herself, but her at
tendants, were beautiful women. Ber-
tha had charged Catherine to treat
her with some severity lest by her ac-
custOmed Difference she betray the Sc

from the spurious to the real queen.
who bore the reproof with becoming
meekness. Indeed, King Caspar was
charmed that the maid showed no
temper whatever, while the reproof.
which seemed to be uncalled for, pref
udiced him against her supposed mis-
tress.
Queen Bertha had gone to the meet
ing with no other object than to over
look her future husband incognita. But
from the moment she saw him she was
much smitten with him and resolved
to win him If possible. She directed
Catherine to lose no opportunity to
show her severity while in the kings
presence. Catherine, who was an ex-
cellent actress, played her part remark
ably well. Did she order the queen to
do her any service. no matter how
speedily the duty was performed, the
spurious queen would reprimand her
At such times the real queen would
cast down her eyes, bearing the injus-
tice with angelic sweetness.

One morning Catherine sent Bertha
to the royal garden for some flowers
and when she returned scolded her for
not getting the kind she wished. New
ertheless she handed several of the
choicest to King Caspar, whose brows
were knit at the harsh treatment Of
the maid Of honor. Taking the gift
he selected the most beautiful flower.
a rose, and handed it to Bertha
As might have been expected had
the play been a reality. Catherine after
this, with the queens concurrence. re-
doubled her harshness to Bertha, who
availed herself of the opportunity to
show herself an angel Of patience.
This excited the kings sympathy and
admiration for the poor maid to such
an extent that he resolved to break OF
the negotiations.
When Bertha considered the fruit
ripe for plucking she contrived to meet
the king in corridor in the palace as
II by chance. He stopped her and.
despite her pretended efforts to get by
him, forced her to chat with him. This
she did with her eyes bent upon the
floor in well affected modesty. While
they were together a door opened and
Catherine came out into the corridor.
With fire in her eye she ordered Bertha
to her room, then said to the king:
IF this is sample of your majes-
tvs constancy I think we had better

"As your majesty pleases," replied
the king with formal bow.

hut the king did not remain there
long before he took step which be
must take with great care, since his
failure to marry the queen of Finger

kingdoms. He sent a confidential
friend to Zingerland to learn If he
could marry one whom he supposed to

Easily Half a Million.

The list of improvements as pub
lished last week provoked much dis
cussion. We did not claim that it
was complete nor that the estimates
of cost were correct. We have found
that not only were many omissions
made but many of the residences list
ed were valued from $500 to $1,000
less than they actually cost the own
ers. So we erred in being too conserv-
ative in our estimates. There is no
doubt that the 1914 building improve
ments at Willmar exceeded a half
million. The following omissions have
been brought to our notice:

Sonfh Hit Hard by War.

Southern Railways report for its
completed year showed plainly how
much the war did 10 hurt industry in
the South And yet Southern's control
over its expenses was much stronger
than that Of many Of its competitors.
In the year gross declined 1851 1891
and net S2.965,548. In the first part
Of the ccmpany's year cotton was sell
ing at less than its cost 10 raise. That
was bettered later, but with farmers
buying two-fftb less fertilizer than
they did in 1913, there is patent evi-
dence Of the blow that hit the South.
i is not possible yet to compute with
accuracy the first years result Of the
war on the SOuth's business, but rail
road gross earnings are eloquent OF
lis devastation. The second year is
not likely 20 cause as much damage
as the first unless the Allies place cot
ton on the contraband list. In that
event the reduction Of the cotton crop
10 100000 bales, and possibly less,
IS not likely 10 avail much. But, as
has often been pointed out, the Allies
are disposed 20 seek any and every
way out Of a dilemma that is as try
ing for them as il is for us. If in
genulty can compass it. they will not
make cotton cOntraband.
