. Costly Law Proceedings.

The folly of rushing to the law to
settle every little dispute is demon
strated by an action between two pot
tiers for a sum of 60. After being in
court for IL years. it was put an end
to by being referred to arbitratOrs,
who decided in favor of the defendant
in the. case, and ordered the plaintiff
to pay all the costs incurred in the
proceedings, which were assessed at
Fl, OO0-LOndon Tft-Bits.

Practice of Kind Words.

Just as you now play without the
music and do not think what notes
you strike, though once you picked
them out by slow and patient toll, so
if you begin of set purpose, you will
learn the law of kindness in utterance
so perfectly that it will be second ma
ture to you and make more music in
your life than all the songs the sweet
est voice has ever sung.-Frances E.

Changes in Modern Face.

The tendency of the modern face,
according to Prof. James Keith, lee
turer on anthrOpOlogy at the Royal
institute, London, England. is to be-
come wedge-shaped, with longer, mar
rover and more prominent nose. Prom
inences above the eyes are disappear
ing, and the brow is becoming smooth
and Of an even contour. These changes
in the human face, declared the scien-
list, are due TO changes in methods OF
masticatiOn from the earlier days Of
the human race.

The most remarkable example Of
allotropic disintegration Of metals is
perhaps that of tin. The investiga-

only occur in q temperature not e0-
ceeding 64.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Tin
decay is, therefore, most prevalent in
cold climates.

OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
Il is that so many products hat are ex-
tensively advertised, all az 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 il
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need Of il.
A prominent druggist says, Take for
example DIR Kilmer's Swamp.R Root, q
preparation / nave 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 1 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-Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co, Binghamton, N. Y and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.

swamps and woods. Lincoln, a mem
Der Of Early's company of rangers,
took an active part in all the maneu-
vers, and when word was brought on
the 9Th of July by some Winnebago
Indians that Black Hawk was hiding
in the swamp on an island In Lake
KOshkonong, five miles down the river,
1t was Early's company that was sent
to recOnnOlter. They crossed the river
on RATS to the island, Lincoln among
them, but the willy Hawk had flown.
This happened on the 9th Of July.
They returned up the river to the main
command, and on the 10th Of July Lin
coin was mustered out of service. The
next day he started out with his cOm-
panions for his home in Illinois. That
night his w horse and that Of one
Of his comrades was stolen, and the
rest of the distance was made on foot.
Lincoln was very fond of talking in
later life Of his experiences in the
Black Hawk war. On one occasion,
in the fall OF 1859, he was making
speeches In Wisconsin. After speak
ing at BelOit he was conveyed by car
riage to GAINESVILLE. They ~traversed
the same route as that taken by the
army in the Black Hawk war twenty
seven years before. Lincoln recog-
nized 1t and talked freely about the
events Of that time, telling in his hui
mOrous way Of the difficulties encoun-
tered in his journey home after his
horse was stolen.
Gradually, however, in the three quar-
tiers of a century and more that have
passed since the time when Lincoln
and his comrades camped In the will
derness, the stOckade posts rOtted
away until there was nothing to show
where the fort had stood. Then the
Daughters Of the American Revolution
OF Fort Atkinson took the matter in
hand and placed a memorial to mark
the spot. It is a massive boulder Of
native. stone with a tablet of Massa-
chusetts granite upon which this in
scriptiOn is engraved: 'Near this spot
In 1882 In the Black Hawk war, Gen.
Henry Atkinson erected a stockade
fort. To mark this historic ground the
Daughters Of the American RevOlu-
ton Of Fort Atkinson erect this me-
mOrlal."

carried on in Wisconsin, Lincoln was
with Early's company Of rangers in
General AtkinsOn's command. On June
80, 1882, this company crossed the ter
%ritorial line into Wisconsin and camped
on the bank OF the Rock river, about a
mile above the Turtle village Of the
Wlnnebago Indians, and which Is the
site of the present city Of Belolt. The
company was often alarmed by the
rumors Of Indians ahead, but had no
actual engagements. They marched
north and on July LIST camped at
Storrs lake, a short distance east Of
where the village Of Milton now
stands. Striking the main trail Of
Black Hawks army they followed 1t
in a nOrtherly direction toward Lake
KoshkonOng. They reconnOitered hero
but finding no fresh evidence they fol-
lowed the trail up Rock river to a
spot not far from where the city OF
Fort Atkinson is now situated. The
country at that time was a wilder
ness, and this army Of General At
kinson's had to fairly cut it's way
through the underbrush, tall trees and
clinging vines. He had an army OF
nearly two thousand regulars. He built
q fort on the river bank near its juno
ton with Bark river, and his army re-
manned here q part Of the month Of
July, accommodating and following up

Can Reelte All Of Bible by Heart.

has recently been accomplished by
William Frederick, a New York sales
man.
He has learned the entire Bible of
by heart, and car repeat any passage

state where 1t may be found. 1t has
taken him Is years.

by an eighteenth-century strolling

gave in after II years, by which time
he had succeeded in memorlzing about
two-thirds of the Old Testament.
