KIDNEY TROUBLE
NOT RECOGNIZED

An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the a..
tonishing statement that one reason why
20 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so com.
mon to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tiona are declined do not even suspect that
they have the disease.
According to this II would seem that q
medicine for the kidneys, possessing real
healing and curative properties, would be
. blessing to Thousands.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root. the well
known kidney. liver and bladder remedy,
is remarkably successful in sickness caused
by kidney and bladder troubles. 1t s mild
and gentle in its action and its healing in

seems charged with enthusiasm.
Even the birds seem to chirrup a new

Joy. You smile whether you feel like

That dame of notorious name and
unsavory reputation was an adept in

some days ago that unless Villa was

remote.

According to reports lately received in Fairbanks from the Totatalanika country, Tom Burns, a prospectcr and trapper who makes his head quarters in that region, had an ex- perience during the past winter which is without precedent, as far as can be learned. Consequently, he enjoys the unique distinction of hay ing killed a large bull moose with an axe Some would say that such a feat would be easy if the animal were wounded and unable to travel, but such was not the case, the fact being that it was not hurt, but was unable to move rapidly In the deep snow.
 According to the report, Burns started out on a trip over his trap line one morning with his dog team It was in February, after the first thaw. and. consequently. travelling over the unbroken waste of snow was easy, as thick crust had frozen during the previous night.
 The trapper had not gone very far when suddenly his dogs became unmanageable. He knew that they had smelled a moose or some other animal and did his best to stop them, but as he had no brake on his sled his efforts were all of no avail Therefore all he could do was to hang on to the handle bars of the sled and keep up with the racing dog team.
 Pretty soon the outfit came up to the moose. He was standing in snow belly deep and was unable to

run. For every time he would take a step his sharp hoofs would cut through the crust into the deep snow and would keep him from nov ing at any speed.
 Being evidently of the opinion that to try to escape was useless, dogs and man reached him The dogs started barking, which seemed to anger him, for he turned on them and charged with head down. Then there was some miXup. For dogs and moose were piled up in one snarling, putting mass.
 The prospector could easily see that the moose would win the bat tie, as 1t was evident that he would soon have the dogs trampled under foot, harnessed as they were to the sled. He had no gun and therefore could not shoot, but he did have an axe And so he soon got busy and mixed into the melee himself tn" result being disastrous for the moose,
 Burns Is a man 65 years of age and weighing but 140 pounds. His feat of killing moose with an axe Is therefore the more surprising, And his age and weight probably also had something to do with his being unable to stop his dog team when they charged across the crust after the moose.
 This story is vouched for by 2 well known mining man and pros pector who has spent several win ters in the Totatlanika country anc who knows Burns well.
