New CoaI-Cutiar.

Revolutionary changes in coal.
mining methods are promised upon
the general introduction of a coal
mining machine developed by a
Pittsburgh mining and mechanical en-
g1neer, who has spent more than ten
years in perfecting the machine.
The device, constructed of struc-
tural steel, can attack the coal seam
in any position, moving up or down
or in any direction. 1t takes out more
than 80 per cent of the coal in the
ground, whereas the best practice of
today seldom RECEIVERS more than 70
per cent. 1t is stated that under all
sorts of tests, running over many
months, the machine has demon
strated that it can cut the cost of
mining coal by half.
1t is said that with only twenty
men attending the machines, ten of
them can produce over 1,90O tons of
coal day. Electricity or compressed
air can be used, and so little power
Is required that the cost of power is
less than one per cent a ton for each
ton OF coal mined.

| following:
one tablespoonful butter; add little
cream; season with nutmeg. Stir to
a cream. To serve, cut in pieces as
pie, turning crust bottom side up.
Take apples out with spoon, cover

| ing dish, filing each apple'with sugar.
| Cover with hot water and stew
gently, laying few pieces of stick
cinnamon and lemon peel on the top.

Then, too, S. S. S. has such specific
stimulation on these local cells as to pre-
serve their mutual welfare and a proper
relative assistance to each other.
In very brief time S. S. S. has the
reconstructive process so under control
that remarkable changes are observed. All
eruptive places heal, mysterious pains and
aches have disappeared, and from head to
foot there is a conscious sensation of re-

From the fact that S. S. S. is purely
a botanical preparation, it is accepted by
the weakest stomach and has great tonic
influence. Not one drop of drugs or

Not a Full Explanation.

The manifestation called heat is
with humans and most other animals
sensation indescribable. From the
time of Democritus and Epicurus, and
far back of that, the mystery Of the
source of heat was hotly discussed.
AS time flew on and on the mystery
was segregated into learned words,
and Sir Humphry Davy explained it
all by saying that heat was merely the
vibration of corpuscles of the body.
He did not tell of the origin Of the
corpuscles or why they vibrated.

Afraid Of Kidney Trouble.
The Remedy.

In 1908 I was taken very sick with
kidney trouble, and being afraid, went
to prominent physician at Liberty
vile, Iowa. After doctoring for some
time without cure or relief I began the
use of Swamp-Root and found imme-
diate relief. After using several bot
ties which I bought of Jericho's Drug
Store of Fairfield, Iowa, I became a
we'll man, and can honestly say that
have never had any signs or a return
of any Kidney trouble. I am so CRATE
full toward your medicine that I never
hesitate to recommend it to anyone
1 know who is suffering with Kidney
trouble.
