WHY THE SHAMROCK is WORN
Custom Not only in Honor Of the Saint,
but in Remembrance@of Days
Of Famine.

Few who put a sprig Of shamrock
in their %buttonhole on the 18th OF
March realize that these little green
leaves more than once kept the Irish
from death in dire famine times.
In 1896 the poet Spenser declares
that the wal had brought the miser-
able inhabitants of Munster to a point
where they 'hock to a plot Of water
crosses or shamrOcks as to a feast"
In his "Vlew of Ireland" he describes
this as the depth of ruin to which a
land formerly having abundant corn
and cattle had been plunged.
The troublOus times continued and
the shamrock is mentioned as an ar
ticle of food again and again. Fynes
Morrison, in 1893, writes that the herb
is still "being snatched out of the
bitches for food"
Withers in abuses Stript and
Whipt" q61S) sings:
And for my clothing in a mantle go
And feed on shamrocks as the Irish doe.
Not until later was the shamrock
used as the national emblem of Erin.
Nathaniel Colgan, member of the
Royal Irish academy, says the earliest
record of the wearing O. the green
is contained in the diary Of Thomas
Dinely, who wrote in 1857:
"17th day of March yearly is st.
Patrick, an immovable feast, when the
Irish Of all stations and conditions
wear crosses in their hats, some of
pins, some of green ribbon, and the
vulgar superstltiously wear sham
rogues, three-leaved grass, which they
likewise eat (they say to cause a
sweet breath). The common people
and servants also demand their Pat
rick's groat of their masters, which
they go expressly to town, though half
a dozen miles Off, to spend, where
sometimes 1t amounts to a piece of
eight or a cobb apiece, and very few
Of the jealous are found sober at
night"
A later reference to the wearing OF
the shamrock appears in the works OF
DR.. Caleb Threlkeld, a bOtanlst of the
early eighteenth century. He says
"The people wear the plant in their
hats in commemOration Of st. Patrick
believing that st. Patrick used the
three-lobed leaf to explain the Chris
tlan Trinity. This belief is generally
said by ~antiquarlans to have arisen
in the fourteenth century, almost g
thousand years after the time of Pa
t%ritlus," who died In A. d. 493.
In that year, says the Annale o.
Ulster, "Patritlus, the arch-apostle OF
the Scott (Irlsh) rested on the 16tf
day of the calends Of April (Marcf

year of his life, the slxtleth year aftel

Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp Root, DR.. Kilmer'S PreScrlp-
ton, 0vercOmeS 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
fltering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as
sistaace 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 irregulsr
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 a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. ADV.

bv score of 26-0. In order to take
the championship it is necessary for New
Ulm to defeat Madelia, who will play
here Nov. 10.
In the game on Saturday the locals
rushed their opponents off their feet in
the first quarter. Olson, the New Ulm
CAPTAIN won the toss and chose to re-
ceive. After few plays the ball was
lost on tumble. st. James was held
for downs and by successful line plunge
the ball was carried into the middle OF
the field. Then a forty yard pass,
Olson to Shapiro brought New INNS
first; touchdown The attempt at goal
failed. New Ulm then kicked to St.
Lanes but recovered the ball by holding
them for downs. By series OF line
bucks the bali was carried to st. james

neither side being able to score. With
but few minutes Of the half left to play,
Olson pushed the ball over by series
Of terrific line plunges. Attempt at goal
failed. Score 10: to O. ss,s5. ~
In the third quarter numerous penalties
kept the locals from scoring. It is esti-
mated that they were penalized over
fifty yards in this quarter.
EARLY in the fourth quarter the ball
was pushed forward by the New Ulm
team and after few minutes had elapsed
Olson had carried the ball over for the
final touchdown. Kumm kicked per-
feet goal.
The New Ulmites soon after regained
possession of the ball and had there been
another minute time they undoubtedly
would have scored another touchdown
as the ball was close to St. James goal.

Moist hay, straw, or lawn clippings
are good materials with which to mulch
blackberries. They hold moisture in
the soil, keep the fruit clean and keep
down weeds.
Cabbages keep best in a cool cellar.
If possible, hang by the stump to the
ceiling. Wrapped in paper, they keep
well. Do not pile thickly on shelves
or in bins, or they will be likely to rot.
