kidney TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
80 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so COM
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad-
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it a trial. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
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.

The Joy That Is Strength.

A certain king instructed his garden
er to plant six trees and place statues
beneath them, representing Prosperity,
Beauty. Victory, Strength, Duty and
Joy. These trees and statues were to
show to the world what the king had
tried to make his reign. They were
also to typify the statues beneath
them. The gardener planted six palm
trees When the king came out to in
Spect the work, and came to the statue
of Joy, he said: 81 surely thought you
would typify Joy with some Towering
tree, like the tulip or magnolia. How
can the serious, stately palm, symbol
lie Joy?" Those trees" said the
gardener, get their happiness from
manifest and open sources. They live
in merry forests or orchards, with
hosts of happy comrades. But l found
this palm tree fresh and green and
happy all alone in sandy waste. Its
roots had found some hidden spring
creeping along far beneath the burn
ing surface. Then, thought |, the high.
est Joy has foundation unseen Of
men, and a source they cannot com.
prehend."

NOT QUITE WHAT SHE MEANT
Godmothers Unqualified Assertion
Must Have Given Officiating Min
lister Somewhat of Shock.

The archbishop Of York, formerly
Doctor Lang, who voiced the views of
labor so technically in the house Of
lords in the debate on Industrial I'M
rest, is both man of wit and bril-
liant raconteur Though he now lives
in q palace and has salary of $4,000
a year, he knows the working classes
as few men do.
1 liked particularly story he once
told me (by way of illustrating the diff
ficulty the poor have in understanding
the archaic language of the prayer
book of a woman who was standing
godmother to a child and who, when
she was asked If, in the infants name,
she renowned the devil and all his
works, the pomps and vanities of this
wicked world, etc, replied eagerly,

Kitten VS.. Landscape.

1t Is possible that a story loses moth
ing in the telling when told by Mr..
Charles Hanson Towne, the gifted ed
ftor of McClure's, but this is the way
Mr. Towne tells 1t.
He says that not long ago, at the
Players club, Mr.. Childe Hassam ap-
preached Mr.. Oliver Herford and
said:
"Why do you always paint kittens,
kittens?"
"It is true that 1 often paint kit
tens, Kittens" retorted Mr.. HerfOrd,
fixing Mr.. Hassam with his eye, "but
at least do not call them landscapes"

Little Shy on Manual.

A Wall street clerk received his
commission in the navy because he
earned it, and not through pull. Be-
low decks, in the engineering division,
his rating was unusually high, but he
was a little shy on military require
ments. A few days ago he visited his
brother, an enlisted man at one Of
the nearby camps, and a score Of sea-
men stood at attention upon his ap-
pearance.
They would probably be standing
stiff and upright yet, only the brother
saved the day by whispering to him:
"Say, AS you were.'" He did, and the
men relaxed.
