are, or be remodeled by the desti-
tute women in the afflicted coun-
tries. But these garments are for
actual use as necessities in a very
severe climate. Therefore nothing
should be considered that is not
serviceable. There is immediate
and vital need for articles of all
sorts - immediate because Of the
rigors of the approaching winter;
vital, because non-producing Bel

dependent upon outside help. Cloth

 "On the Chitistone, Slate creek and its tributary, Miller gnlch, were the center of activity, though scarcity OF water on Miller gulch prevented exten- siVe work. At the mouth of Slate creek J. M. Elmer and associates worked three placer claims under lease. A twenty-inch pipe conveyed the water to one four-inch and two five inch giants under a 140-foot head. The gravel bank was approximately twenty feet high.
 Several claims above this is the John S.

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.

and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case 1t shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.

According to sworn statements and
ysfifea 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, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric

has recently been accomplished by
William Frederick, New York sales
man.
He has learned the entire Bible on

In 1t from Genesis to Revelations and
state where it may be found. 1t has
taken him 10 years.
A similar task was once undertaken
by an eighteenth-century strolling
