OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

A medicinal preparation like DR.. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root, that has real curative
value almost sells itself. Like an endless
chain system the remedy is recommended
by those who have been benefited to those
who are in need of it.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is a physi-
clans prescription. 1t has been tested
for years and has brought results to count
less numbers who have suffered.
The success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root
is due to the fact that it fulfills almost ev-
cry wish in overcoming kidney, liver and
bladder diseases, corrects urinary troubles
and neutralizes the uric acid which causes
rheumatism.
Do not suffer. Get bottle of Swamp
Root from any druggist now. Start treat
ment today.
However, If you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.

Zoo Monkeys Diet.

The monkeys in American zoologi-
cal parks are still having bananas for
breakfast, in spite of the war and the
high cost Of living, but the animals of
the London zoo are not so fortunate.
The shortage Of food in Britain has
resulted in many of the less rare ami
mails being killed off or not replaced
in case of death. The aforementioned
bananas have long been dropped from
the zoo menu, and potatoes can be re-
membered only by the older inhabit-
ants of before the war days. Horse
flesh is the only form Of meat not
too high nor scarce for the animals.
Hay, wheat and oats are needed urg-
emily for other purposes; so that grass
from the parks, corn, rice and other
less valuable grains are substituted.

Died on "EIeId Of Honor.U

Alexander Hamilton, statesman Of
the Revolutionary period, and his son
Philip were both killed in duels, the
former by Aaron Burr and the latter
by one George L. Eacker. The son
was killed first. He and Eacker were
both young lawyers of New York city.
They got into a quarrel at a theater
one night and Hamilton challenged
Eacker on the spot. In the duel which
followed, November %. 1901, Hamilton
was mortally wounded and died the
next day. July II, 1904, the father
and Aaron Burr fought on the same
spot, at Weehawken, N. J., and Hamil.

SNAKES A NATIONAL ASSET
Reptiles Eat Rodents That Destroy
Grain-of the Many Species
Few Are Poisonous.

Snakes, says a writer In the AEeri-
can Forestry Magazine. are national
asset worth many millions of dollars.
Snakes eat rodents. The more snakes
the fewer rodents. The fewer rodents
the more grain for human consump-
tiOn. Ergo, the more snakes the more
food and prosperity for humanity.
The snake prejudice is common, al
most universal. Many humane peo-
pie kill snake at sight merely be.
cause 1t is snake. Others, especially
those who wear skirts, flee terror
stricken from a snakes presence for
the same arbitrary reason. To study
snakes in a friendly way, to try to
understand them as part Of natures
scheme, is q new idea.
In the East there are several snake
clubs that devote themselves to the
study of snakes and to propaganda
of kindliness toward serpents. The
arguments are convincing; quite as
unanswerable as the arguments
against the wanton killing Of birds.
Snakes. like birds, are friends of the
farmer, and, therefore, benefactors Of
all of us.
There are Ill species of American
snakes, and of these only II are ven
omous. No snake, venomous or other
wise, ever wantonly attacks human
being. The pretty little garter snake
and the big black snake, the common
est varieties, are wholly inoffensive.
1t will, of course, be impossible to
kill the anti-snake sentiment in day.
The hostility Of man to the reptiles
seems to date from prehistoric times,
and is one of the most firmly estab-
lished of human traditions. The Won
der is that any snakes have survived
the ruthless warfare. If it is now
made sufficiently clear by science that
the snake is one of mans invaluable
benefactors, snakedom's future may
be much brighter than It's past.

scheme to Capture German.

And this was received by the COM
mander of the Department Of the
East, a New York correspondent of
the Pittsburgh Dispatch writes: II am
enthusiastic over a scheme that has
entered my fertile brain to easily cap
ture thousands of German soldiers
without firing round Of ammuni-
tion. If the war department does not
see fit to use this wonderful sugges-
ton, then the responsibility for the
continuance of the war must rest on
the shoulders of those who have re-
jected it. The scheme is a simple one
and is easily put into execution. Un-
der cover of darkness have the SOL
diers strew the ground between OPP
posing trenches with fly paper. When
the Germans come over the top to at
tack they will, Of course, get stuck
and will be easily captured. Can any
thing more practical or simple be
imagined?"

ALL MEN AT HOME SHOULD

The first test man is put thru for

such as uric acid-drink plenty of. water

mEeminallsn Are Worn.

One of the packing houses in the
stock yards in Chicago has persuaded
its women employees to wear what it
calls "feminalls," another form of over
alls. The women at first objected, but
as so much machinery with belts and
other contrivances that are likely to
catch in the dresses of women are
used, the managers persuaded five
women to try 1t, and 1t was then easy
for the rest to don the feminalls. In
this particular place 1000 women are
employed, about three times as many
as last year, and much of the work
they do was formerly done by men.

does DIR. Bridgman answer his own
question:
'Becase when the young Ger
man monk on october 81, 1917. posted
on the door of the church of All Saints
in Wittenburs his 81 theses denounc-
ing the wrong practices of the church
to which he had dedicated his life, he
was initiating movement that turned
the course of history. Because the
forces which Luther helped to set in
motion have effected results the world
around; nor is their force yet spent.
Eecause our war-stricken, weary world
needs just the things that lie at the
heart of Professionalism. Because Prot
estantism itself needs a periodic infu-
sion OF new loyalty and enthusiasm.
Because the freedom and spiritual
power emanating from the reforma-
ticY we will conserve and pass on to
future generations. And because in
honoring Martin Luther we may be
correcting and softening our judg-
ment of a sister nation, with whom
we are now at war-laying thru

iation which, please God, shall be per-

had come to them all and chiefly by
him, personal liberty and freedom of

ing of tolerance was again become an
experience of men; the right of pri-
vatc judgment was again to prevail
and, in its train liberal government.
Impulses of revolt against enslaving
tyranny were widespread before Luth-
er, and of relatively long standing.
But he came forward on Halloween,
1917, meaning to change somewhat
the way of thinking in his city and
state, to put the emphasis on inner life
rather than on outward show and
