Today, despite patience
too prolonged, the American
: nation is verging on war. The
spirit OF Kansas is stirred as
= it has not been stirred for
generation Our peace loving
. people, without hysteria, are
quietly setting their public in
order that they may be ready
4 for whatever demands be
4 made upon them. But that
: the world may know Kansas
stands as ready now as ever
5 to do her full duty and more,
| hereby designate, Friday,
April 6, as Loyalty Day.
; | further urge that begin

; and the people generally give
; expression to their loyalty
; by daily display Of the flag

France, the battle-ground of Civilian
ton.
About sixty years ago an English
writer, Sir Edward Greasy. published
a book which he called The Fifteen
Decisive Battles of the World" His
purpose was TO describe those great
military events which have had the
greatest influence upon human his
tory. Each battle described, had it
resulted differently, would have COM
pletely changed the course of civili-
cation, Had Charles MarteI not won
the battle OF Tours, for example,
the whole OF Europe, and that means
also North apd South America. would,
very likely Nave become Mohamme-
dan in religion. perhaps the inter
probation OF the Koran" says Gibbon,
describing the consequences OF this
battle, would now be taught in the
schools OF oxford and her pulpits
might demonstrate to the English peo-
pie the truth of the revelation of Ma
hornet
Ten OF Creasy's epochal battles have
been fought since the beginning OF
the Christian era. Four of them rep
resent victories which were won on
French soil--the battle of Chalons
in A. D. 4b1; the battle OF Tours. 1872
Joan of Arcs victory at Orleans, 1929.
and the battle of valmy. In 1881 An
other was a great French victory won
on English soil--the battle OF Hastings
in 1866. Two others--the battle of
Blenhetm in f714, and the battle OF

OLD PRESCRIPTION.
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have You ever stopped to reason why
Il is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need Of it.
A prominent druggist says, Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, q
preparation / have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that l know Of
has so large a sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers' Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that, SO many people claim, it fulfls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments. c~orrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
Swamp.R Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer 4 Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.
Large and medium size bottles for sale
at all drug stores.-Adv.

ming House That One Some Day
ls Going to Build.

There are two kinds of people who
are interested in the question of build
ing houses: Those who have built one
house and live in 1t, and those who r
living In some ones else house. A
pretty comprehensive statement, but
really, who isn't interested in the mat
ter Of building a home?
Jones has q house of his own, and
he Is concerned with the thing he pos
sesses, says an exchange. Smith, who
owns no house, Is concerned with some
thing he lacks. Jones Is homesick only
when he Is away from home. Smith
can never be hOmesick in any place 9TH
er than his home. Jones Is an owner,
a master, a liege lord Of lands and all
that Is therein. Smith Is a tenant, a
payer Of rent, a slave of tribute. Jones
dwells on the right side of the door.
Smith is eternally wishing that he did.
1t Is never too soon to begin planning
that house which some day you are 60
ing to want to build. 1t Is never too
soon, but sometimes too late, to save
the money for q start toward II. The
start Is all that is necessary.

ing and insertion in a fiat medallion.
shaped piece over the top of the head
and a little cape that hangs from the
back. A band of pink MORE ribbon is
brought across the top of the cap and
ties in the back at the nape of the
neck. 1t is encouraged to be useful
and stay in place by the company Of
clusters Of the tiniest chiffon roses.
A band Of hemstitched taffeta, edged
with lace and trimmed with a zig-zag
band of little blossoms, makes the
other entlcing cap. 1t fastens at the
side under q bow Of narrow satin rib
bon, with snap fasteners.

In the case of BlOOdwOrth vs. Times
Publishing Company, 1913 Southwest
ern Reporter, 527, Justice Wood Of
the Arkansas supreme court said, in
substance, that where defendants in
one part Of Its paper referred to plain
tiff as q "knocker," and 1t was alleged
that he was the person specifically
meant, It furnished the necessary col
ioQulum to show that the following
prayer published in the same paper
applied to the plaintiff:
1.-THE Knockers Prayer: Lord, please
don't let this town grow. I've been
here for many. years, and during that
time I have fought every public i'm
provement. I've knocked on every
thing and everybody. No firm or in
dividual has established a business
here without my doing all l could to
put them out of business. I've lied
about them, and would have stolen
from them, II I had the courage. I
am against building a new church, ever
though I gave nothing. am against
the electric light franchise being
granted to George Booser, George
Washington, or Jim Tom. 1t pains
me, oh Lord, to see that In spite Of
my knocking the town Is growing.
Then, too, more people might come
here, which would cause me to lose
some of my pull. I ask, therefore, to
keep this town at a standstill, that I
may be one Of the chiefs. Amen!"-

DVlNSK AS A PIVOTAL POINT
Thriving Russian City That Controls
River Dvina Valley, One Of the
Strongest Fortified.

Dvinsk, one of Russia's strongest for
tified cities, Is described in a bulletin
Issued by the National Geographic So
ciety, which says:
with a population Of 10000, In
Guiding 10000 Jews, Dvinsk Is a city
of prime Importance to Russia, for 1t
virtually controls the whole valley of
the River Dvina, upon whose right
bank 1t is situated, ITO miles (135
miles by river) southeast of Riga.
mot only Is Dvinsk important as a
strategic river point, but as Il thriving
railway center. 1t Is the junction
point for the great arteries of COM
merce running from Riga to Sm0lensk
and from P%etrograd to wilma. There
Is also an important railroad to Libau.
Dvinsk Is 49, miles by rail southwest
of Petrograd.
"Dvinsk Is an important agricultural
center, enjoying an extensive trade In
flax, hemp and grain. 1t Is also a big
timber market, and Its flourishing in
dustrles before the war included -four
mills, breweries, match and tobacco
factories, tanneries, brick and tile
works.
I'm most encyclopedias and gazeteers
the city Is listed under its old name
Of Dnaburg, but in 1893 the Russian
authorities officially declared it to be
Dvinsk.
During Napoleon's Russian cam
paign In 1912 Marshal Oudinot tried
in vain to capture the bridgehead at
Dvinsk, but the honor of taking the
city was reserved for Macdonald a few
weeks later"

TREE PLANTING NEEDS CARE
Appearance Of Grounds as Important
as House Plans, interior Decor
atoms or Furniture.

While house plans, interior decora.
tons and furniture play a prominent
part in the life of the new home build
er, care of the grounds about the house
should likewise be given consideration,
particularly as regards the planting of
trees to trim up the general appear
ance of the house.
In tree planting great care, foresight
and judgment are required, says a
landscape artist. The selection Of
young trees, their proper setting apart
and their care after planting make
beautiful grounds possible. In shade
tree planting as in the construction Of
a building, the plan for the completed
work should be determined in advance,
for the tree planter must picture to
himself how his work will look a great
number of years later and with him 1t
rests whether the result Is to be one
of satisfaction or regret.
In making selections one must bear
In mind that the tree must possess GER
tain characteristics to be desirable. In
the first place 1t must be hardy, capa-
bic of withstanding unfavorable condi-
tons of city life such as poor soil,
drought, smoke, gas, heat and dust, cas-
lily transplanted and prOpagated. 1t
must have a straight stem, a rounded
well filled head, well developed roots
and be symmetrical in growth. They
must to a great degree be immune from
insect pests, retain their foliage In
good condition through the summer un-
til late fall and be clean In their hab-
its of growth. The ideal shade tree
must also be Of medium growth and
long lived. The desirability of devel-
Oping good-sized shade trees as sOOn as
possible after planting is admitted, and
1t is unfortunate that the trees grow
ing most rapidly are the most undesir'
able.

Fjshjnu on Sunday.

Sunday fishing, which has long been
looked upon as sacrilegious in the Isle
of Man, threatens to lose some OF tts
terrors for the "unco guid," notes an
exchange. Until recently the North OF
England and Scotch fishermen engaged
in the Manx herring trade have kept
Sunday so vigorously that they have
remained in port from Saturday morn
Ing to Monday afternoon. Fishermen
from the South, r~esenting the loss Of
two nights fishing, have tried to break
through the tradition and a Fleetwood
boat put out to sea one Sunday eve
