PROVEN SWAMP ROOT
AIDS WEAK KIDNEYS.

The symptoms Of kidney and blad-
der troubles are often very distress
ing and leave the system in run
down condition. The kidneys seem
to suffer most, as almost every vic
tim complains Of lame back and uri-
nary troubles which should not be
neglected, as these danger signals
often lead to dangerous kidney trou-
bleS.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which
soon heals and strengthens the kid
neys is splendid kidney, liver and
bladder remedy, and, being an her
bal compound, has gentle healing
effect on the kidneys, which is al
most immediately noticed in most
cases by those who use it.
A trial will convince anyone who
may be in need of it. Better get a
bottle from your nearest drug store,
and start treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents
to DR.. Kilmer e Co., Binghampton.

writing be sure and mention The

MONEY TO YOUNG IVA MAN.
Austin Hall Rewarded for Saving Life
OF Edward Harris.

/ Anderson, Jan. 29.-Austin Hall,
of Iva, the young man who was re-
Gently awarded a bronze medal by
the Carnegie hero fund commission
for saving the life of Edward Harris,
has Just received notice that he will
also be given 81 900 in money as fur
ther recognition of his heroic act.
Mr.. Hall is the son Of MIR. and
Mrs. ]. A. Hall, and is a young farm
er. In August, 1912, Edward Harris
was digging a we'll on the place OF
R. S. Yeargin, and while in the we'll
was overcome ~ poisonous gas. Aus
tin Hall is a nephew of Mr.. Ieargln
and happened to be around at the
time. knowing that the negro would
soon suffocate if not brought to the
surface he had himself let down into
the we'll, tied rope around the un-
conscious body and had him drawn
to the surface.
When Hall was pulled from the
we'll he had almost become suffocat-
ed from the gas also, and was quite
i'll for a short time. Some of the
young mans friends at Iva, hearing
of his heroic deed, promptly insti-
tuted proceedings to have medal
awarded him.

LONG, HARD WINTER.
Muskrats Are Building Large and
Substantial Homes.

A long and hard winter is fore
told by the muskrats inhabiting the
banks of Grand river and Grand lake
bayous, according to trappers.
Men familiar with the habits OF
the muskrat say that the animals are
building large and substantial homes
and that they began constructing
them much earlier than for several
years. Heretofore, since the last Sc
we're winter, the homes have been
small and none too substantial, in
marked contrast with those now oc-
cupied.
Some of the new homes are said
to be three feet or more in height.
They are built of mud, clay, moss,
cattail flags and other materials in
cone shape and stand out from the
banks just enough to escape the
shore. Entrance to them is under
water, so that the muskrats seldom
show themselves when entering.-

WILSON'S VIEWS.
EXCERPTS From Presidents Speech at
Cleveland Saturday.

| suppose this country has never
found itself before in so singular a
position. IS 8 & Two-thirds of the
world are at war. All the world out
side of America is on fire. *' : This
is a struggle which will determine
the history of the world, | dare say,
for more than century to come.
The world will never be the same
again after this war is over. The
change may be for veal or it may
be for woe, but it will be fundamen-
tai and tremendous.
1t is very difficult for us to hold
off and look with cool judgment up
on such tremendous matters. e ::
1t has not been easy for the govern
ment at Washington to avoid these
entanglements which seem to beset
it on every side. 1t has needed a
great deal of watchfulness and unre-
hitting patience to do so.
You have laid upon me this double
obligation, 1--WE are relying upon you,
Mr.. President, to keep us out of this
war, but we are relying upon you to
keep the honor of the nation un-
stained"
You may count upon my heart and
resolution to keep you out of the
war, but you must be ready if it is
necessary that l should maintain
your honor.
We are interested in knowing that
there are men all over the United
States prepared, equipped and ready
to go out at the call of the national
government upon the shortest posi-
BILE notice. You will ask me, "Why
do you say the shortest possible no
tice?" Because, gentlemen, let me
tell you very solemnly, you cannot
afford to postpone this thing. do
not know what a single day may
bring forth.

Our First Mint.

One of the first things that con-
gress found it necessary to do, after
the establishment of the government,
was the starting of mint to produce
the money that was needed, the Con-
tinental paper currency having de-
spreciated so much that it was abso-
Iutely of no value. Washington in
his first annual message referred to
the Importance of uniformity in the
currency, and in his second message
he urged the importance of the es-
Establishment of mint.
Congress took up the suggestion,
and Alexander Hamilton, who was
secretary of the treasury at the time,
Son January %, 1871, sent lengthy
communication to the house of rep
resentatives on The Esta ablishment
of Mint" This communication was
the basis for the act of congress O.:
April 2, 1892, which not only was
the foundation of the institution, but
also regulated the coins of the Unit
ed States.
On May 8, 1892, the director Of
the mint was authorized with the
appreciation of the president, to pur-
chase a quantity of copper for the
coinage of cents and half cents, and
congress also provided that when
fifty thousand dollars had been coin
ed notice should be given the public
in at least two newspapers.
Philadelphia being the seat of gov
ernment at that time, naturally the
mint was located at that point. The
building chosen for our first coinage
was at 81 and 80 North 7th street:
and this was the sole United States
mint from 1892 to 1888. The cor
ner-stone was laid on July 81, 1892,
presumably by David Rittenhouse,
: the celebrated astronomer and phi
losopher and first director of the
mint.
The ground on which the first mint
building stood was sold by William
Penn to the Pennsylvania Land COM
pany. The deed was signed by Penn
on August II, 1899, for a considera-
ton of $4,000. This land had been
decided tc William Penn by Charles
II. Rittenhouse was appointed di-
