Kidney 6 Co.
(BY DR. J. H. wATSoN)

The kidneys and the skin work in har- mony. They're companions, the skin being the second partner. If we are anxious to keep well anS preserve the vitality of the kidneys and, also, free the blood from noxous clements, we must pay special attention to good action of the skin and to see that the kidneys are flushed so as to eliminate the poisons from the blood.
 Sweating, by hard work or in bath, at least once week, helps to keep the skin and kidneys in good condition. Flush the kidneys by drinking plenty of pure water with meals and between meals. Occasionally obtain at the nearest drug store Anuric, which will help flush the kidneys and the intestines. You will find that Anuric is many times more active than ithia and that 1t dissolves uric acid e hot water does sugar.

THOUSANDS OF THIN, TRAIL PEOPLE ARE RESTORED TO HEALTH BY TAKING
 TANLAc.
FIGURES ARE ASTONISHING
People of Prominence and Unques- tioned Integrity Tell What cee- brated Medicine Has Done
 for Them.

NNE of the most noteworthy fea- O lures in connection with Tanlac and the one that stands out more prom tnently than any other, perhaps, is the very large number of well-known men and women from all parts of the South who have recently reported astonishing and rapid increases in weight as a re- suit of it's use.
 When so many well-known people of unquestioned integrity make state ment after statement, each corroborat- ing the other, the truth of such state ments can no longer be doubted.
 Thousands have testified that this famous medicine has completely re- stored them to health and strength. after every other medicine and the most skilled medical treatment have failed.
 One of the most remarkable cases on record is that if Mrs Viola Ives, of 315 Cross Street, Little Rock, Ark, whose statement appears below.
 ''Tn May of 1913" said Mrs. Ives, 1T suffered a complete breakdown of my nerves and my entire system gave way. About six weeks afterwards I was carried to the hospital. I became perfectly helpless-couldn't move any part of my body and just lay there in bed for five months, not knowing any, thing or anybody. was brought home in October, 1913, and tried all kinds of medicine and everything I was told about.
 T read about so many people get ting relief by taking Tanlac and my husband got me bottle. After talk ing three bottles I began to feel bet ter. l have taken several bottles of Tanlac now and I can walk anywhere and sleep like a child. When I took my first dose of Tanlac weighed only one hundred and twenty-two pounds. I now weigh one hundred and sixty two-an actual gain of forty pounds since started on Tanlac"
 Hs Texas Man Testifes.
 Another remarkable case was that of John NJ. Crabtree, a general mer- chant at Five Mile Station A, Dallas, Tex.
 T have actually gained thirty-four pounds on three bottles of TanIac and now know what it is to enjoy good health after suffering for twenty years" said Mir. Crabtree.
 T suffered with catarrh of the stom- ach and indigestion for twenty years and for eighteen months, before I start ed taking Tanlac, had to live almost entirely on cereals. I spent nearly all of one whole year in bed and was un- able to do anything at all and I fell of in weight to 11S pounds.
 "After using my third bottle of Tan lac found I had increased in weight from 11S pounds to 152 pounds, mak- ing an actual gain of thirty-four pounds all my troubles were gone, and was feeling like another man."

SLIGHT HOME FRUIT GARDEN
While No Less Important or Numer-
Gus They Are overshadowed by
Blu commert -. Orchards.

With the growth of the commercial
fruit interests of the United States the
home fruit garden has been lost sight
Of. Only a few years ago the owners
of home gardens not only led In the
production of fruits, but were our au-
thorities as to- how and where to grow
them. Today these gardens, while no
less numerous or important, are over
Swallowed by the orchards where fruit
ia grown for commercial purposes.
While both the home garden and the
orchard are essential to the good OF
the community, they bear very diner
ent relations to the fruit interests OK
the country as a whole. The home
garden is always the forerunner OF
commercial development, and even IN
those localities where climatic and soil
conditions are adverse to conducting
such industries on an extensive scale
the home fruit garden Of the enthusl'
astic amateur is certain to be found.
All the success attained today by the
fruit interests of the United States has
grown out of the persevering efforts OF
Q few men whose home fruit gardens
served not only as testing stations Tor
determining the fitness Of given sorts
for new and untried localities, PIT they

MAKE WALNUT GRATING WAX
Formula Given for Making Mixture
That Thoroughly Heals Wounds
Apply With Brush.

Walnut grating wax is made as
follows:
Five pounds Of resin, one pound Of
beeswax, one-half pound Of charcoal
and one-Quarter pound Of raw linseed
oil.
Melt the resin and cut the beeswax
into small pieces. When the resin is
melted, add the wax to 1t, and after
the wax is melted, add the charcoal
and stir thoroughly. When the char
coal has been thoroughly mixed with
the resin and beeswax, take from the
stove and add the linseed oil. When
this mixture cools 1t Is a hard black
cake.
For use In the orchard q piece large
enough for the amount Of grating to
be done should be cut from the cake
and melted by heat. II the weather
is cold or II there Is a large amount Of
grating to be done, the grating wax
can be kept soft by putting the dish
In which 1t Is kept over some hot Goals
in q pail. The wax should be applied
by means of brush.
This Is very good wax for graft
ing purposes, as 1t will thoroughly
heal the wounds and does not soften
during hot weather.

THE HOME GARDEN.

College Park. July 5,-Maryland
farmers are taking especial pains with
their home gardens this year. They
are aiming to keep up a constant and
sufficient supply of vegetables for their
own use and for their local markets.
They are accomplishing this purpose
by adopting a. rotation off garden
crops that will keep every foot Of
garden soil busy during the growing
season. In bulletin recently issued
by the Maryland Agricultural Exten-
sion Service, S. B. Shaw, specialist in
Horticulture, says: THE systematic
rotation Of farm crops has been ad-
vocated for a number Of years. the
principal end in view being an i'm.
provement Of soil fertility A well
planned rotation Of garden crops
brings about this same result and, in
addition. accomplishes two other pur.
poses. 1t affords greater amount of
food supplies for a longer period OF
time. and, to certain extent, II aids
In the control of certain insects and

GREAT LAKES ARE HAZARDOUS
Navigation Is Fraught With Danger,
In Spite Of Great Surveys Made
by Government.

Summer after SUMMER the fleet OF
the lake survey sails the broad expanse
of the five lakes and the score of bays
and inlets searching for danger spots
that may claim their heavy toll of hui
man life and vessel tonnage.
Since 1871 the United States govern
ment has been silently carrying on this
work, Herculean fight against the
Jagged reef and the unseen shOal that
menace navigation. Sounding lines
have been plunged into black depths
of $4,000 square miles of water; and
still today there are areas that have
not been charted in which passing
banks may founder, says the New York
Sun.
Three of the five steamers that COM
pose the 1lotila carry crews of 90 men.
The two other boats are smaller, hay
ing but ten or twelve men for a crew.
Probably no frequented waterways
In the world are SO hazardous as the
Great Lakes. AT no time is a steamer
on them more than comparatively
few hours from shore and periodically
fierce storms arise fully as violent as
those experienced on the ocean, which
play with the steel ships, battering
them helplessly about, threatening to
pngulf or sweep them ashore.
Over $j,OOoGO0 has been spent by
the government since 1871 for the pros
ecution of the work of charting the
lakes. Locked in heavy timbered
boxes, protected from fire In immense
vaults in the old post office building,
Detroit, are over 1900 field charts, dat
,ng back to 1918, when a survey of
Lake Erie was made by officers of the
British navy. With few exceptions the
maps are the result of the scientific
researches of United States officers
and surveyors.

Mystical SIav Temperament.

A deep religious instinct seems to be
Unborn with the Slav peasants, both
Russian and Pole, according to the
Christian Herald. The only difference
Is the form of his religion, for prac-
tically all the Poles are adherentS Of
the Church of Rome. With both races
religion and patriotism are closely in
tertwined. The Slav temperament
seems to be particularly susceptible to
religious impressions and devotion to
the church reaches a degree for which
1t Is difficult to find analoges in any
other part Of modern Europe. In the
daily life of the Polish peasant the
name Christ and the Virgin will be
heard repeatedly. He would not think
Of living in house that had not been
blessed by priest. A manufactures
would find 1t difficult to keep his hands
If the factory had not been blessed. A
theater would die from lack of patron
age If the priestly blessing had been
denied the building. The Pole is
probably the most faithful Of all the
adherents Of the Church Of Rome.
