Something Might Happen.
When asked what she would do II
the machinery broke, she answered
with woman's logic, I'D call the car
barn"
AS a matter of fact the car itself
stops automatically if she takes her
hand off the controller handle. But
whatever brains, ability or initiative
it takes to run street car Mrs. Luke
has it.
She Is Patriotic.
She was prompted to undertake
what has heretofore been mans
job from patriotic motive. She has
two brothers in the army, Edward
and Harry Holland, the latter street
car conductor. She thought that if
her brothers could make sacrifice,
she, too could do her part at home.
Her Father Drove.
Then, too, there was another reason
why she took this particular job. Her
father, Charles Holland, forty years
ago drove for the street car company
when mules were the means of loco
motion. For years he was in the
street car service, SO it is sort OF
family tradition.
Has Park-cemetery Run.
Mrs. Luke has the run from the
park to the cemetery, a twelve hours
shift, going on duty in the morning
at II o'clock and going off duty at IL
at night. She says the public has
shown her only kindness and the
greatest courtesy, showing that they
do appreciate "other times, other GUS

KIDNEY SUFFERERS HAVE

take is absolutely pure and contains no
harmful or habit producing drugs.
Such a medicine Is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The same standard Of purity, strength
and excellence is maintained in every
bottle of Swamp Boot.
Swamp-Root is scientifically compound
ed from vegetable herbs.
II is not q stimulant and ID taken in
teaspOonful doses.
Il is not recommended for everything.
According to verified testimony it is
natures great helper in relieving and over
coming kidney, liver and bladder trOu-
bles.
A sworn statement Of purity is with
every bottle Of Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root.
If you need . medicine, you should have
the best.
II you are already convinced THAI
Swamp Root is what you need, you viii
find it on sale at all drug stores in bottles
Of two sizes, medium and large.

First Introduced Canes.

The Mexicans first used canes in
America. When the Spanish con-
Quered the country, a queer custom
was introduced. The chief executive
of the towns carried q stick with n
gold or silver head. It was q kind
of scepter.
The people, of course, rarely knew
how to read or write, and when any
one was wanted for crime, one Of
the mayors subordinates would take
the cane, find the culprit and place
it horizontally upon the latter's chest.
The proceeding was equivalent to
q summons, and the man had to ap-
pear before the mayor under the PEN
atty of being cast into prison. This
action was borrowed from Spain,
where it still prevails in the more inn
portant actions.

Finger-Ends the Literature Of
Fully Fifteen Countries.

Whatever may be said or thought
of Korniloff, there can be no doubt
that he is brilliantly clever, says a
correspondent. He might be termed a
"self-made man." At the age of thir-
teen he was tending sheep on the
Steppes; today, at forty-seven, he has
at his finger-endS the literature of 15
countries and all manner of military
lore.
At one period of his meteoric career
he combined the two Unmatched pur-
suits of science and spying.
Though he can converse in 15 Ian
guages, Korniloff is great believer
in the maxim that "silence is golden"
On one occasion he said: II am n
fighting general, accustomed to act
and not to talk. In Petrograd most of
the time is spent in talking"

kindred ills may be completely routed
by careful diet of vegetables and a
free use of fruits.
Nature provides us in the spring
Just the foods we need, without re-
| sorting to the time-hOnOred sulphur
and molasses treatment, through which
many of us have suffered.
The dandelion contains taraxicum,
the tonic which is in so many spring
medicines. This acts directly on the
liver, stimulating it to healthy action.
The lack of exercise in winter is one
of the worst features of our living, for
exercise is life to the body. The liver
from inactivity and plenty of food be-
comes clOgged and does not do its
work, hence bfliOusness and various
other annoying ills. The liver is one
of the most important organs in the
body and must be kept free to work its
process of elimination. When clOgged
the whole machinery of the body is
out of order.
How much pleasanter it Is to eat a
dish of crisp, fresh green's than to take
npleasant-tasting medicine. The use
of good olive oil on salads makes them
more valuable, as the oil is a food, it
! is healing to inflamed tissues, it lubri-
Gates the tissues and stimulates the ac-
ton of the liver.
Cowslips are another early vegetable
which may be found in almost any
neighborhOod, the exercise used In GO
ing for, and bringing them home is not
the least of their value. Spinach,
Swiss chard, pepper grass and lettuce
should be found in every garden.
Fresh fruit, dried fruit and green
vegetables are the best of spring medl-
cineS.
Those who do not like olive oil may
have been turned against it by being
served with a rNncid oil or one of in
ferior quality. Oil should be sweet,
nutty and of most appetizing odOr
and taste.
Early radishes may be raised long
before the garden crop is ready by put
ting few seeds into a hOtbed, or a
large flower urn, cover with glass for
a while, and with plenty of water the
radishes will soon be ready for the
