A GOOD CHANGE.
A Change of Food Works Wonders.

Wrong food and drink cause a lot of
trouble in this world. To change is
first aid when a person is ill, particu-
larly from stomach and nervous trou-
bles. AS an illustration: A lady in
Mo. was brought around to health
again by leaving off coffee and some
articles of food that did not agree with
her.
She says:
For a number of years l suffered
with stomach and bowel trouble which
kept getting worse until l was i'll
most of the time. About four years
ago l left off coffee and began using
Postum. My stomach and bowels
improved right along, but l was SC re-
duced in flesh and so nervous that the
least thing would overcome me.
Then I changed my food and began
using Grape-Nuts in addition to
Postum. l lived on these two princi-
pally for about four months. Day by
day / gained in flesh and strength UNI
til the nervous trouble had disap-
peared. l feel that | owe my health
to Postum and Grape-Nuts.
Husband was troubled, for a long
time, with occasional cramps, and
slept badly. Finally | prevailed upon
him to leave off coffee and take
Postum. After he tried Postum for
a few days he found that he could
sleep and that his cramps disappeared.
He never went back to coffee" Name
given by Postum Co. Battle Creek.

Postum comes in two forms:

must be we'll boiled. 15c and Csc

WOMEN SUFFERERS
NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer a great deal with pain
in the back, headache, loss of ambition,
nervousness and may be respondent and
irritable.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, re-
stores health to the kidneys and is just
the remedy needed to overcome such con-
1itions.
Get a fifty cent or one dollar bottle inn
mediately from any drug store.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

First to Die for Liberty

1t would be difficult to say who was the first man
killed in the Revolutionary war. The spirit of
revolt prevailed and some collisions between the
people and British soldiers occurred before the
war actually began. The battle of Concord oc-
Cured more than a year before the Declaration of
Independence, but there was bloodshed before the
battle Of Concord. One Of the earliest Of these
collisions was the so-called Boston massacre,
March 5, 1870, in which British soldiers fired upon
citizens, killing three and w~ounding eight. The
first to fall in this ARRAY was Crispus Attacks, a
mulatto. The first man killed in the battle of Con-
cord, April 10, 1775, was Capt. Isaac Davis of the
Massachusetts minute men" In the battle of Con-
cord the Americans lost SO killed, wounded and
missing, but no complete list of names was pre-
served.

ervat1on. 1t forms a point of considerable interest
containing, as it does, three memorial brasses on
the gray stone slab put down in memory Of Lau-
renee Washington and his family. These brasses
consist of Laurence Washington's efigy, a shield
bearing the Washington arms, and the following
inscription:
Here lyeth buried We bodys of Laurence Wash
ingto, Gent, & Anne his wyf by whom he had
issue iii sons and ii daughts wo laurence Dyed We
day ano Is & Anne De-
ceased the vi of October ano Dni 1864"
Apparently Laurence Washington, great-great-
great.grandfather of George Washington, devised
this monument as a memorial to his wife, leaV-
ing the date of his own death blank to be filed
in after his death. This, however, has never been
done.
Two other records of the Washingtons are
found in the village of Brington. In this little
township, not far distant from Northampton,
stands the house to which the family moved from
Sulgrave. 1t was in this house that Robert Wash
ington died in 1922, and in the yard, engraved
upon a sundial, is found the Washington coat Of
arms.
In the Church of All Saints, near at hand, where
Robert Washington is buried, an inscription reads
as follows:
Here lies inferred We bodies of Elijah Wash
ington, widowe, who changed this life for 1mmor-
talitie We 10Th day of March, 1922. AS also ye

band second some of Robert Washington of Sol
grave in We County of North, Esqr, who depted
this life we 10th of March, 1922, after they lived
lovingly together"
Laurence Washington, grandson of the Lau-
renee of Sulgrave, died in 1916, and is also buried
here.
Unfortunately little of the village of Sulgrave
as it was in the days of the Washingtons now re-
mains. A disastrous fire in 1875 swept the vii
lage, and only a relic may be seen here and there
in an ancient house. Most of the streets are set
with neat brick houses. Coming toward the
Church of All Saints, one might fancy oneself in
the business center of some minor New England
city, but with rather less of glare and noise, and
the community held in a certain allegiance by the
presence of the old church.
In dedicating the manor as a memorial to the
peaceful relations existing between the two great
English-speaking nations during a century, the
British committee has created a permanent me
mortal of permanent interest.

Ever Heard Thunder al Sea?

Baron Won Humboldt was RESPONSE
BILE for the statement that thunder is
eve on the high seas--i. O.. at any
great distance from land-though VIC
lent thunderstorms are often observed
at sea and vessels are frequently
struck by lightning.
Is the statement true?
Or. II thunder ID sometimes heard,
is its sound comparatively faint?
These questions have provoked dis.
cussions from time to time at meet
lngs OF the Astronomical society of
France, and have recently been taken
up anew by that society. 1t is suggest
ed that the other noises prevailing on
shipboard during a storm may be the
reason why the thunder often passes
unnoticed, but information on this sub
ject from sailors will be welcomed bv
