How Lillian Cared for Madge to save
 Her From Nervous Breakdown.

Her From Nervous Breakdown.
 There was more than the ordinary solicitude of a physician in Dr. Pettit's voice he ordered me to lie down because of my nervous ex- haustion, saying: "1f there IS no one else to take care of you, I must do it.
 He had found me kneehng oy Dicky's bed. I had been in the same rosition ever since I had entered the room where Dicky lay wounded oy the treacherous hand of Grace Draper. The almost hopeless condition Of the pir1 had kept every one else In Lillian Underwood's apartment busy. When pr, Petit raised me from my knee]ing posture and supported me to a seat I was almost in a collapse.
 Even through the numbness that enveloped me, something new, vital, insistent, in the physicians voice and manner beat upon my brain. It puzzled me- Dr. Pettit's manner was that of a man caring for woman who had no other protector. And yet he had just said that Dicky would be all right in no time." There also had been an expression of indignant pity in his eyes when he had raised me from Dtcky's bedside.
 All at once the answer to the riddle flashed upon me. The young phy- sician must have put the worst possible construction upon the even ing's tragedy. He must believe that Dicky had not been the innocent victim of the girls mad rage; that in stead the girl had been Dicky's victim and had attempted to kill him when he had tired of her.
 If Dr. Petit believed this, he must also believe that Dicky was lost to me forever and that in the course of time I would free myself from husband who had proven so faithless to me.
 This, then, was the reason of this new note in his attitude toward me. I felt a shiver of horror at his mis- understanding of the situation It seemed @ sacrilege in the presence of Dicky's narrow escape from death to have to consider even the probable opinion of any other man.

Logic and Sense of Humor. or humor usually seem to go hand in hand.
 Nor is a logical mind only valuable in a mental way
 It also influences the character of him who possesses it.
 For one thing, a passionate sense Of justice is the sure cOrollary of a truly logical mind.
 Again, the logical mind is the for, bearing mind, because it is clear sighted enough to know it's own weaknesses and logical enough to draw the conclusion that other peo- pie must have their weaknesses.
 If there be any power of will joined to it, the logical mind will steadily mould its owners character toward. the best because it will see so clearly what is good and what is bad.
 The Logical Mind Has Its Faults.
 Of course, the logical mind has it's faults. The habit of pushing things to logical conclusions, even though something worthwhile is trampled upon, a disdain for expedience and an impatience of stupidity and lack of logic in others are some of these.
 But the very trend of mind that brings these faults helps to overconosp them.
 If I were fairy godmother, with power to give a child one gift, I am not sure it would not be logical mind In fact, if it were man child I am pretty sure it would be. Per haps you can guess what might give the woman child.

DON'T NEGLECT KIDNEY
Swamp-Root, DR.. Kilmer's Prescrip-
ton, oVercomes Kidney Trouble.

1t is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more at
tention as they control the other or.
gans to o remarkable degree and do a
tremendous amount OF work in remov-
ing the poisons and waste matter from
the system by fltering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some
assistance when needed We take less
exercise drink less water and often
eat more rich, heavy food, thereby
forcing the kidneys to do more work
than nature intended. Evidence of
kidney trouble, such as lame back,
annoying bladder troubles, smarting or
burning, brickdust or sediment, sallow
complexion, rheumatism, maybe weak
or irregular heart action, warns you
that your kidneys require help i'm
mediately to avoid more serious
trouble
An ideal herbal compound that has
had most remarkable success as a kid
ney and bladder remedy is DR.. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root There is nothing
else like it, 1t is Dr. Kilmer's prescrip
tion used in private practice and it is
sure to benefit you. Get bottle from
your druggist
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 writ
ing be sure and mention the Benning-
ton Evening Banner.

The HaSty Pudding club Of Harvard
was recently reported 10 be in some
distress because of the lack Of two
sturdy actors capable Of good team
work in playing the part of an ele-
plant in the clubs annual spring show.
The original selection for the front
legs was dismissed frCm college on
account of low mSkS. and the hind
legs became discouraged and resigned.
Probably n peculiar combination Of
athletic skill and comic talent is re-
CURED for the proper representation
of n stage elephant, and it may be a
thankleSS task that college amateurs
in general are unwilling to tackle. An
actor disguised MS one-half of an elc-
plant seems to lose much Of his indt-
viduality. But the fore and aft por-
ton Of n quadruped offers n fine
chance for an ambitious young actor

The Forbidden Vine.

Among the things to be avoided,
when you stroll into the country, is
poison ivy. 1t Chambers luXuriantly
over walls and fences and trees and,
late In the season, the old glossy
leaves, each Of which is divided into
three lobes, turn to reds, browns and
yellows. Its frnit Is a small dun
colored berry. The flesh that touches
it becomes inflamed and swollen and
breaks into blisters that are cOmmu
nicated to other parts as the victim
rubs them. Some persons are so SEN
sitive to the poison that they cannot
go heal the ivy without being affected.
The ivy is good to look upon, but it
is bad to handle.
A couple of years ago there was a
project TO organize a society to make
war on this enemy of the human kind,
but it seems to have disappeared
perhaps with the disease from which
its chief promoter was at the time suf-
fering. In the absence Of any organ

out for his own welfare. The poison

GRUBS EAT THE STRAWBERRY
Growers Who Have Trouble With
Them Should Be Careful In Sc.
lecting Land for Plants.

Strawberry growers who are trou.
bled with white grub worms should be
careful in selecting the land upon
which tho plants are to be set. Sod
land, according to ]. r. Watson, en-
tomologist to the University Of Florida
experiment station, ia apt to be in
tested with the worms He advises
that the land be given to some crop
not injured by the grubs, for two or
three years after the sod is turned
under. If the grower cannot wait that
long he might pasture pigs on the land
six months before planting. Pigs root
the grubs out and eat them.
If stable or %barnyard manure Is used
as fertilizer, 1t might be we'll to mix
with it from 200 to 400 pounds Of cy-
anamide to the acre. 1t Is possible
that cyanamide cannot be obtained.
About 100 pounds of sulphur or enough
to slightly color the manure might be
added. The sulphur can be applied be-
tween the rows.
Neither of these substances will kill
the grubs, but they act as repellents,
and will probably drive the grubs
away. The best method, however. is
to avoid sod lands.
