His Sensitive Soul.

George Challis, owner of a theater
in Muncie, Ind, believes that the crav-
ing for passes to shows becomes a ma
mia, and relates case in point, ac-
cOrding to the Indianapolis News. He
had been besieged for weeks by man
for passes to show in the theater, and
two or three times. just to get rid of
him, had passed him in, which only
seemed TO make him the more in
sistent the next time, although Chal-
lis was under no obligation to him.
Finally the fellow struck Challis one
day when the latter was suffering from
the effects of poor house" the night
before, and, eXasperated, he reached
down in his pocket and handing the
importuning one dollar. said, go
over there to the box Office and buy

Putting up, his dignity rufiled and his
feelings apparently hurt. the other re-
piled, what do you take me fora

walked away-with Challis' dollar in

WORDS LOST THEIR FORCE
Photograph, He Is Told, When
Discussing His Speech.

A banker who was told that Charles
NJ. Schwab, the president of the Beth
lehem Steel works, was one of the
most forceful speakers ever heard ut a
banquet table, said he believed it, and
then told this story:
About the time that Schwab was
buying Bethlehem Steel, and had made
arrangements with Pliny Fisk of New
York, TO handle the bonds, he went
over to New York, and, of course, was
entertained at a dinner. There he
made one of his most fOrceful utter
ances. Mr.. Fisk was moved to such
an extent that he said to Mr.. Schwab !:
THAT will sell the bonds. Only, you
should write it out for me when you
reurn, so l shall make an accurate
statement"
Mr.. Schwab wrote out his remarks
as soon as he got back to his home and
sent them to Mr.. Fisk.
Mr.. Fisk saw him soon afterward.
and said: "Why didn't you write me
what you said?"
81 did," responded the steel master.
81 wrote the exact words"
"Well," answered Mr.. Fisk, much
disconnected, "yOu should have spoken
them into a photograph"

Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp Root, DR.. Kilmer's Prescrip-
ton, 0verc0mes Kidney Trouble

It is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to a re-
markable degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
filtering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as
sistance when needed. We take less ex.
ercise, 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, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion,
rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular
heart action, warns you that your kid
neys require help Immediately to avoid
more serious trouble.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and
bladder remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. There is nothing else like it. 1t
is DR.. Kilmer's prescription used in pri
vate practice and it is sure to benefit you.
Get a 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
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

Wireless Air Raid Warning.

The London Daily Chronicle reports
that Mr.. ThOrp Hincks has devised APP
paratus for giving warnings of impend-
ing air raids. 1t is claimed to be es-
pecially applicable to factories and
public buildings. An electric resona-
tor is placed on the roof, and on the
sound of given pitch being produced,
the resonator causes bell to ring In
the building until it is stopped. 1t Is
said that large areas, such for instance
as the whole of city. can be simulta-
neously and .instantaneously warned.
