SLOWER THAN CITY COUSIN
Country Younester in Army Found to
Sc Possessed of Much Less
Initiative and Speed.

American officers are making pre-
cisely the same comment as to the city
boy versus the\ country boy that the
British officers made when the first
green regiment came to the continent,
says a correspondent in France. The
country boy is heavier, stronger, but
also a slower fau tndn MS CITY cousin.
"City life sharpens the wits" is the
British conslusion. ''The city boys
adapt themselves to this devilish life
more rapidly than the country boys
do. They are just as hardy, too, and
soon pick up the little outdoor tricks
that so many country boys have learn
ed on hunting and fishing trips. The
city yOungster has more initiative and
more speed"
as he gamer" asked.
There are no gamer regiments in
the British army than the cockneys,"
was the reply.
Americans find the country boy
needs more watching and caring for
than the recruit from the city. His
morale and behavior are far better,
but he does not adapt himself quickly
to his new environment.

old PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to 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 DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
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 know of
has 80 large sale. Z,
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 fulfils at
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.
Large and medium size bottles for sale

CARDUI A
SPLENDID TONIC
For Women, Says Hixson Lady,

Hixson, Tenn.--Mrs. J. B. Gadd, of

My doctor told me to use Cardui. l

after my baby came was stronger and
better, but the pain was still there.
I at first let 1t go, but began to get
weak and in rundown condition, so
decided to try some more Cardui,
which I did. The last Cardpi 1 took
made me much better, and, in fact,
cured me. It has been number Of
years, still I have no return of this
trouble. Feel 1t was Cardui that cured
me, and / recommend it as splendid

If you feel weak, tired, worn-out, or

lar to women, try Cardui, the woman's
tonic. 1t must be good medicine for
women, for many thousands have vol

NO ROMANCE IN HIS SOUL
Man Who Could Destroy Little Wife's
Illusion as He Did, Didn't De-

"John," she asked, nesting up to
him, for it was the third anniversary
of their marriage, what was the hap
piest moment of your life?"
"Ah, DEAR" he replied, Il remember

She sighed and nestled little clos

"Oh," he answered. II thought you

The Country Woman's Kick.

The wife of a congressman from a
small place in Ohio complained to the
cook who bosses things in her Wash
ington establishment.
"The turkey has no flavor" said the
lady, Il can't find any meat in the

Killed by Poisons

All scientists agree that poisonous
products in the blood are eliminated by
the kidneys and liver. The kidneys act
as kind of filter for these products.
When the kidneys are changed or de-
generated, by disease or old age, then
these poisons are retained in the body.
If we wish to prevent old age coming
on too soon, or if we want to increase
our chances for long life, DR.. Pierce OF
the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, says
that you should drink plenty of water
daily between meals to flush the kidneys.
Then procure at your nearest drug store
Anuric. This Anuric drives the uric acid
out. Scientific men have learned that in
govt, also rheumatism, poisonous uric
acid crystals are deposited In or about
the joints, in the muscles - where In
f1ammation is set up.
If we wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition q diet of milk and vege-
tables, with only little meat once day, 10
the most suitable. Drink plenty of pure
water, take Anuric three times day for
a month. An-u-ric is many times more
patent than lithia and dissolves uric
acid as hot water does sugar.
Send 10 cents to DR.. Pierce, If you wish
to obtain a trial package of Anuric.
