Explanation to Her Guests.

A little girl gave children's party the other day to certain of her young friends. She was very anxious that everything should be done properly and just before the arrival of the guests was discussing matters with her mother
 Mamma" she asked, shall we say grace?"
 No" said mamma; it will be a very informal dinner. and I think you need not do that"
 That meant one ceremony the less to be gone through, and was a relief. But the little lady was anxious to have all her guests understand it. So, as they gathered about the table, she explained:
 Mamma says that this is such an internal dinner that we need not have grace today?"

LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES
They Are Closely Observing Pub-
 lie Health Conditions.

An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people. and cations are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.
 According to this it would seem that a medicine for the kidneys, possessing real healing and curative properties, would be blessing to thousands.
 Dr. Kilmer & Go. Bnghamton, N. Y, who prepare Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root the well-known kidney, liver and bladder remedy, claim that judging from evil dence received from druggists every where, who are constantly in touch with their customers, and also indisputable proof in the form of grateful testimonial letters from thousands of reliable citi- zens, this preparation is remarkably sue cessful in sickness caused by kidney and bladder troubles Every interesting statement they receive regarding Swamp Root is investigated and no testimonial is published unless the party who sends it is reported of good character. They have on file many sworn statements of reeoveries in the most distressing cases They state that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is mild and gentle in its action and its healing influence is soon noticed in most cases.
 Swamp-Root is purely an herbal com pound and Dr. Kilmer & Go. advise all ,Io ,,aaJ of p,,ob edy to give it a trial. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes-50c. and Sl.00. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y, for sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. Adv.

Wasteful Feeding Practice.

The usual practice among most farmers is to stuff the managers full and let the horses eat all they want This is a wasteful practice, for not only do they get more hay than Is good for them, but they pull out and tramp under foot a great deal that is ruined for further feeding purposes
 This may be a good way to keep the horses bedded, but is rather expensive.
