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 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.
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I 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 I 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, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive q 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
at all drug stores.-Adv.

FIRST TO USE "CAMOUFLAGE"
American Indians Early Recognized
the Value of Simple Devices
fer Misleading an Enemy.

That the art of camOuf1age as now
practiced in Europe is an American
Institution and originated by the Amer
lean Indians, was recently proved to
the driver of a touring car which
crossed the country.
A squaw, reported to be over a
hundred years old and to have lived
in the days when the white man was
common enemy, through an Indian
Interpreter explained how the Indian
children were taught to place flowers
in their hair as we'll as twigs, leaves
and other bits of foliage, and were
able to move along the ground in
such Il stealthy manner that they were
not discernible to the rest of the tribe.
Before a young buck could become
qualified as warrior he had to make
his approach to the Indian camp al
most in the midst of the assembled
warriors without being detected The
real origin of paint on their faces, as
we'll as on their wigwams and horses,
as claimed by authority, was for the
purpose of making them blend in with
rocks, trees and dirt, so that they could
approach their prey or remain hidden
without detection.

No Water,

At a certain nth rate boarding house
q transient entered the dining room
late for dinner. He was unsteady on
his feet and the bOarders realized at
once that he had been imbibing freely.
His first act. after seating himself, WAS
to pick up his glass Of water and throw
it out of the window. His neighbor

Wonderful BRIDGE Spans Danube.

The stretch of the Danube between
Russia and Bulgaria, through Rou,
mania, passes two great works, ancient
and modern, in close proximity.
One is Trajan's wall, a double ram
part of earth extending from the river
to the Roumanian Black sea port, Con
StanZa.
Just below this the Danube is
crossed by the great railway bridge of
the Bucharest Constanza line, one of
the most wonderful engineering tri-
umphs of the modern world.
This bridge is over 21A miles long.
The biggest of it's 6S spans is a can't
lever of over 200 yards, crossing the
main stream.
The piers are laid in water nearly
100 feet deep, while at low water the
height of the bridge exceeds 12O feet.
1t cost nearly $7,50O,0OO.

Getting Around Ii.

IF a fellow wants to look a little
bit like a soldier without the trouble
of actually being one, he can have a
belt sewed on his overcoat at an av-
erage cost per snappy garment Of
about one war savings certificate. The
leaders of this mode camoufieur wear
belts about their coats, and we saw
one sartorial Ulysses who had his
waistcoat thus encircled; but anyone
who puts a belt around his shirt
(theyll come in summer time y ought
to have another behind the ear.
Our allies have no remedy in the
matter, and anybody who cares to do
so can rig up bow-legged baby in the
dress of the bersaglieri or the chas-
Seurs alpins. All it takes is a little
cheap nerve. After all, it does not
matter much. Those who are help
ing win the war will keep right on
doing so, and those who show their
zeal by flOurishing bits Of cloth will
keep on doing that. It's the eternal
difference between real and sham, and
even this war does not rouse some of
US to see it.-Collier'S.

Queer Happening.

"Nreat prices in France keep soaring
higher and higher" said Novelist
Edith Wharton. Gold boiled ham, for
instance, now costs 50 pound.

tied her butchers the other day with
Il basketful of wooden skeWers. She
pumped the skewers down on the
counter and said:
"T return these. Give me their
weight in beef, please

"'They were weighed to me as
beef the woman explained, and I

AS seen BY CYNIC
Description of Home and Church
Weddings.
Evidently Penned by One Who Was
in Some Degree Prejudiced, or
Has Been Unfortunate Victim
of Cupid's WiIeS.

A wedding is a party where two peO-
pie who are in love with each other
agree to spend their lives in trying to
get over it.
Before the wedding takes place, all
the tradeSpeOple within a radius of
ten miles are notified, and all the rela-
tives within 1000 miles, and the groom
is served with a notice to stay away
from the scene of operation until the
fatal moment arrives when he is to
hand over the ring and his freedom.
There are two kinds of weddings
house and church. When a wedding is
held in a house, a prominent circus
man is consulted, and he sends his
main tent, which, after having been
placed in the back yard, Is filled with
walters, wines and relatives. Also sew
eral other people who, having been
forced against their will to buy we'd
ding presents, felt it incumbent upon
them to come and locate the position
of said wedding presents in order to
determine just where they stand with
the family Of the bride. In the front
of the house is also placed a canvas,
so arranged as to cover up the con-
fusion of the bride and groom as they
escape, and also to protect the afore-
mentioned guests from rain, snow,
hail and curiosity.
When the shades of evening begin to
fall upon the unhappy scene, which
with our modest pen we have attempt
ed to describe, the wedding breakfast
is held, and the presents removed to
a place of safety, from which, later on,
they can be exchanged for other things
fully as useless.
The church wedding is usually held
in a church, but it is not improbable
In the near future that it will be
transferred to some other building, as
churches are no longer en- regle in the
best circles.
When the members of the immediate
family and relatives have been firmly
strapped down in their seats in the
front part Of the church. and separ-
ated from hoi pOllOi by department
store ribbon, the rest Of the world is
pei hktlSu W SHlSI, d1lSl WHICH lHC
bride, reclining demurely on the arm
of her father, sails down the aisle and
is met at the altar by the clergyman
with a glad smile.
The choir boys are then permitted
TO sing a song, and the bridegroom is
assisted to the fatal spot by two or
three of his closest friends, who hyp-
notice him into fulfilling his part of
the contract. The minister is the only
one who comes out ahead of the game,
the amount ranging from $1,000 to $10,-
600.
Later on the bride and groom, after
they have returned from their honey
moon. either settle down to a life Of
quiet and obscure friction, or else
make their arrangements, at the end
of few months, to take the unlim-
tied accommodation train to the val
ley of unrest via Reno.-Life.
