FIGURES IN HISTORY
CITY OF lAoN RENOWNED FOR
 MANY CENTURIES.
Two Thousand Years Ago It Was a Central Point for Which Armies Contended-Cathedra the Ad-
 miration of Travellers.

Laon, behind the German lines, is one of the pleasantest towns of north ern France, says a description issued by the National Geographic society. Founded by the Celts, it felt the early waves of Teutonic invasion more than 2,000 years ago; and greater and lesser waves have followed in varying succession ever since. With Laon as a base, Celt and Roman car ried civilization across the Rhine; taught the rude warrior folk to the north the refnements of ancient em- pire; and brought them weights, money, letters, improved weapons, manufactured products, and the glow ing wine of the southland.
 Remigius, who baptized Chlodwig, appointed bishop to Laon almost be- fore the Christian morning in Trans Alpine Europe had it dawning The Normans swept over the town in SS2, and the next few centuries saw many another horde of wasters follow the same path. By the beginning of the fourteenth century, however, Laon was world-city, guarded by strong walls and towers, and garrisoned by the choicest adventurers of the em- pire and of the low countries.
 Henry " reduced the city in 1894 ; and, in 1874, the citadel on the fiat rock on which the city stands was successfully defended by Russian and Prussian soldiers against the de spafring thrusts of the great Napoleon. III 1870, here in Laon, was performed one of the most renowned of all the valorous deeds of the F'ranco-Prussian war. AS the Magdeburg Jaeger stormed into the citadel, crowding back the small French garrison and filling the inclosure, the French blew up themselves and the victors, selling the place at an unexpected heavy cost.
 Where the walls once stood-im pregnable defenses in the old days be. fore the use of gunpowder and the high explosive shells, today are situ. ated beautiful shaded promenades Everywhere in the older town, that part upon the hill, are interesting me. morials of the eity's gray past. In the lower town are the concessions made to modern times-the railway station, the gas works, beet sugar fac tories and abattoir.
 The Laon artichoke is blue-ribbon winner among vegetables, and it finds it's way only into the most exclusive kitchens of Paris and London. More over, it is an edible of literary fame; for, in popular European romances, its presence on the table is the writers way of marking dinner and surround ings as quite out of the ordinary
 The cathedral at Laon, a wonderful structure that many travellers deserv ing of opinion treasure even beyond those of Reins, Paris, Orleans, Rouen Noyon and Amiens, dominates from it's stocky towers all Picardie fol miles around. Around the cathedra in the upper city are scattered a mum Der of structures of long pasts anC fascinating reminiscence.

TAXES OFF DANDRUFF
 HAIR STOPS FALLING
Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful-No More Itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appli- cation of Danderine you cannot find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.

No diff ference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at time. The effect is amaz- ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wayy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable luster, softness and luxuriance.
 Get 25 cent bottle of Knowlton' 8 Danderine from any store, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any-that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that 8 all-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just try lit tie Danderine. Adv.

Everyone Should Drink Hot Water
 in the Morning
Wash away all the stomach, liV- CT, and bowel poisons be-
 fore breakfast.

To feel your best day in and day out, to feel clean inside; no sour bile to coat your tongue and sicken your breath or dull your head; no constipa- tion, bilious attacks, Dick headache, colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom- ach, you must bathe on the inside like you bathe outside. This is vastly more important, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do, says a welLknown physician.
 To keep these poisons and toxins well flushed from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, drink before breakfast each day, glass of hot wa ter with 2 teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. This will cleanse, purify and freshen the entire alimen- tary tract, before putting more food into the stomach.
 Get a quarter pound O. limestone phosphate from your druggist or at the store. It is inexpensive and al most tasteless, except l" sourish tinge which ir not unpleasant. Drink phosphated hot water every morning to rid your system Of these vile poi sons and toxins; also to prevent their formation
 To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became saturated with an ac- emulation of body poisons, begin this treatment and above all, keep it up! AS soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and purifying, so limestone phosphate and hot water before breakfast, act on the stomach. liver, kidneys and bowels.-Adv.

DRINK LOTS OF WATER
 TO FLUSH THE KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat and Take Salts for Baekache or Bladder Trouble
 NeutraIlze Acids.

Uric acid in meat excites the kid neys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kid neys clog you must help them flush of the body's urinous waste or you'll be real sick person shortly. At first you feel dull misery in the kidney region, you suffer from backache, sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad.
 Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of lad Salts; take a table spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is source of irrita- tion, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in- jure; makes delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of lad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kid ney trouble while it is only trouble.- Adv.

HOSPITAL IN HISTORY
INSTITUTIONS HAVE BEEN KNOWN FROM EARLY TIMES.
Before the Christian Era the Care of the Afflicted Was Considered a Public Duty - Philadelphia
 Had First in America.

The first hospital established in America was opened in Philadelphia on February 2, 1750. For nearly two years Benjamin Franklin and other influential men were working for the establishment of such an institution. A charter was granted in May, 1751, and the first board of trustees was elected the July following.
 The day of the opening number of patients were admitted who were reg ularly attended and given their medi- cine free. Joshua Crosby was the first president and Benjamin Franklin the first clerk.
 The second hospital established was in New York in 1771. From these ear ly beginnings there has now grown up ir, tho United States a variable forest
