EYesiaht Basis of Wager.

An Irishman and an Englishman met
one day and they had very heated
discussion. Pat, who had only one
eye, attracted the Englishman's atten-
ton, when he said:
"Those are grand eyes you have"
"How much grander are those you
have" said the Englishman in answer
81 thought" replied Pat, ''ye English
men were good grammarians. have
but one eye, and you could not say
those" Then Pat, who was anxious
to Guido the Englishman from a point
of wit and humor, said:
81 bet you 20 shillings to your one
that l can see more with my one eye
than you can with your two"
Done" said the Englishman. ITS
n bet"
And Pat, in his truly witty manner,
vociferated:
"Arrah, shure, with my one eye can
see your two, whereas you with your
two eyes can only see my one"
The Englishman collapsed.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so 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 applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad-
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it a trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
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.

Almost Got Into Trouble.

Miss Oldmaid opened her garden
gate, yapping little lapdog shot out
like a catapault and snapped at the
bare knees of some little toddlers who
were passing.
A special constable thought 1t his
duty to give the little beast a slap
and push it back into Its own garden.
Miss Oldmaid saw him do it and de-

Many people In this section have suffer-
ed from rheumatism and kidney trouble

successful remedy to overcome these
painful and dangerous ailments.
The lucky people are those who have

The first mistake was that thew

The second was when. IL few weeks

offer, interpreting this evidently that,
militarily and economically. we were
on the verge of collapse.
NO greater mistakes were ever
made That the central powers made
a peace offer was due alone to the
joint desire TO end the scnseless
butchcring and the destruction OF
everything that centuries OF civiliza-
ton have given to Europe. I will say
here that to end this war is the keen
