RESTORES KIDNEYS

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root'

edy.

Swamp Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. DR.. Kilmer used it for years in his
private practice. It helps the kidneys,
liver and bladder do the work nature in
tended they should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of yearS.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit and
it will help you. No other remedy can
successfully take its place.
Be sure to get Swamp-ROot and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for q

A good story is being told, apropos
Of preparedness, on a clever labor
orator who lately spoke in Baltimore.
In a speech made in another city he
absentmindedly put his finger in his
mouth and in an outburst of ener-
getic eloquence inadvertently bit it.
Later on, exigencies more or less
common to suffering humanity caused
him to part with the offending teeth
and replace them with a good brand
of artificial ones. But the remem-
brance Of the former still ranked, and
when he began his preparations to
speak in Baltimore he removed the
teeth carefully, and putting them on
the table beside him, looked at the au-
dience and quietly remarked: Safety
first"

Work May Be Done at Any Time
During Year, but Is Best While
Trees Are Dormant.

Pruning may be done at any time
of the year." according to A. J.
Gunderson of the division of pOlmO-
logy, University Of Illinois. ut can
best be done, however, while the trees
are dormant, for more time is then
available, and in the absence Of foliage
It is easier to tell what branches
should be removed"
First-Remove all dead, diseased or
broken limbs.
SecOnd-Cut out the water sprouts.
Third - Remove those branches
which cross or interfere with each
other.
Fourth = Cut back any leader
branches that may be making an over
vigorous growth. In doing so. do not
leave straight stugs, but cut back to
side branch. This will improve the
shape of the top and make spraying
and picking easier.
Fifth-Do not Overprune by cutting
out too large branches and thereby
suddenly open up the top to exposure
to the sun. This may produce sun
scaId. Instead, thin out the top uni
formly by removing the smaller
branches of about one-half inch diam
eter.
Sixth-Do part Of the pruning this
year, and the balance next year, espe-
cially where no pruning has been done
before.
,Seventh-Be careful Of the fruit
spurs. These are the parts of the
tree which bear apples. II broken OF
they never can bear again.
The method Of cutting when prun-
ing apple trees Is very important. The
best advice Is to cut every branch,
whether large or small, as close as pos
sible to the part from which It is
taken. Never leave stubs, for stubs
viii not permit the healing over Of the
wounds. but may induce decay. Make
all cuts smooth and close.

The most dangerous of the biting in
sects is said by most entomologists to
be the mosquito, and the species which
Is the chief carrier Of malaria is found
very widely distributed throughout the
world. As n rule individuals do not
wander far on their own account, but
they can be blown considerable dis
tances by a wind, and they have a
habit Of travelling about in trains and
ships. The female hibernates through
out the winter, and, it is reported has
been found under the frozen SHOWS of
Siberia, mingled with the moss and
snow.

THIS DEALER HAD REAL TACT
Stout and Thin Customers Use Special
Mirrors in Wearing Apparel
Establishment.

A dealer in wearing apparel, noticing
that his stout customers and his very
thin customers often were sensitive as
to their figures, installed two full
length mirrors of special design, says
Popular Mechanics magazine. One was
slightly concave and the other slightly
convex. When a stout customer tried
on a suit she was led to the cOncave
mirror for self-inspection, and was able
to see her figure as it would appear
with its measurements reduced. When
a thin person came in to try on clothes
she was taken to the convex mirror,
where the opposite effect was pro-
duced.
