Are Advertised Medicines Northeast

There is no more reason to con-
denim all advertised medicines than
there Is to condemn all physicians or
all druggists. Fakes there are in
every profession and in every trade.

medicine like Lydia E. Pinkham's

female ailments, constantly growing
in popularity and favor. until 1t is
now recognized from ocean to ocean

Buyer Gets Rare Volume cheap.

First editions and rare books often
bring prices at sales which excite the
wonder of the uninitiated, but large as
the Sums received sometimes are, 1t
often happens that volume goes for
less than had been paid for it by the
preceding owner. This is illustrated in
the case of Douay Bible which
brought $6,250 at New York auction
sale short time ago. 1t had belong
ed to the collection of the late John d.
Crimmins. who had paid $3.50 for it
II years before. Because of its intrin-
sic value as photographic rarity, it
had increased $685. in that time. But
Augustin DAILY, from whose estate
Crimmins bought the Bible, had spent
$4,000 on 1t in illustrating it with
rare prints, original drawings and old
engravings of Biblical events, thereby
enlarging the original book to AZ vol
umes. However, the confirmed collect
or does not usually buy books as an
investment, but for the, pleasure Of
owning them, and probably Mr.. Daily
got $4,000 worth of entertainment in
gathering the prints and in eXtra-il

Rocks in Noisy concIave.

The ways of rocks in France,
somewhere in the army zone, puzzle
correspondent who writes that their
behavior at the. advent of mild wealth
er was peculiar. They congregated in
immense numbers on few trees near
his billet; the trees were literally
black with them; every twig and
branch was crowded with a screaming
mob of birds, that wheeled up and
down In great excitement. Sometimes
they settled on the fields, but not to
feed. The writer surmises that, hav-
ing on a fine day resolved to visit their
old nests, as is their habit, they found
that the woodcutters-busy in France
as they are in England had destroyed
their nesting sites. The hurly-burly
in the trees was probably then due
to the rocks all giving their advice ST.
multaneously as to what ought to be
done in such untoward circumstances.

PROVEN SWAMP ROOT
AIDS WEAK KIDNEYS

The symptoms of kidney and bladder
troubles are often very distressing and
leave the system in rundown condition
The kidneys seem to suffer most, as al
most every victim complains of lame back
and urinary troubles which should not be
neglected, as these danger signals often
lead to more dangerous kidney troubles.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which, SO
many people say, soon heals and strength
ems the kidneys, is splendid kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, and, being
an herbal compound, has a gentle heal
ing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most Immediately noticed in most cases
by those who use it.
A trial will convince anyone who may
be in need of it. Better get a bottle from
your nearest drug store, and start treat
ment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton, N. Y, for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper-Adv.

Malaria In EnoIand.

Malaria was once common in Ger.
tain parts of England, but as result
of drainage and the use of quinine, il

of indigenous malaria in England. Ac-
cording to- circular issued by the 10.
cal government board, many men have
contracted the disease while fighting
on the eastern war fronts, and have
brought it home with them; thus they
serve as foci Of infection for the civil
ian population. Measures are being
taken to deal with the carrier mos

Maanates Not Sure of Holding Stars

Major league club owners are not
at all sure of holding players within
the draft age until the close of the 1918
season.
With the next draft call, men Of
draft age will be rushed to army can
tonments just as fast as it is possible
for the government to get them there,
and as the boys in Glass la are called
there may be gaping holes in many
big league lineup by July /. y
Such players as Benny Kauff, Al
MamauX, Ray Chapman, Red Faber.
Grover Cleveland Alexander and
George Burns may be wearing khaki
instead of big league uniforms by mid
summer. And there is no use under
estimating the extent that the loss OF
their services would amount to-.
Should the Giants lose Kauff. Nc
Graw's outfield would be practically
wrecked. Davey Robertson's determi-
nation to quit the game was a hard
enough blow, but the dashing little
centerfielder of Federal league fame
would be missed even more than Rob-
ertson were he to go.
In the case of Ray Chapman, who
may be taken from the Indians, his
going would wreck Lee FohPs infield
One Of the best shortstoppers in the
business. Chapman's presence on the
Cleveland inner circle is imperative to
give it balance. Without him the In
dian infield would be like a boat with
out rudder.
The White Sox could i'll afford to
lose the services of Red Faber, who is
being depended ON to win many games
for them this season, and should the
Cubs lose Alexander his shoes could
not possibly be filed.
While Al Mamaux is somewhat of
an experiment for the Dodgers, Uncle
Robby is counting heavily on him to
come back and star as the headliner Of
the Brooklyn staff, so if he goes Brook
lyn will suffer.
There are a good many other play
ers whose status is not definite. Some
of them could be spared well enough,
but others are badly needed. So the
magnate is getting ready to open the
season without assurance that he can
put ball club in the field and keep
it there. The magnates, however, are
not yelping. They will stand any loss

IF WORLD MOVED FASTER
Existing Conditions Would Be Very
Greatly Upset by Increased Rota-
tation, as Shown Here.

Conjecture has often been made as
to what would happen if the earth
were to rotate faster upon it's axis
than itTdoes.S OF course. if it went 18
times as fast as it does now, bodies
at the equator would weigh nothing
person would jump up into the air
ana fail TO come down again. A man
might weigh POO at the poles and
nothing at the equator, while his
weight would vary for intermediate
points. If he approached the equator
he would get lighter and if he re-
ceded from it he would get heavier.
A man could carry house on his
shoulders very near the equator, while
near either pole he could only carry
what one. can now On this account
labor would be very dear. near the
poles andtvery cheap near the equa-
tor. 1t would certainly be interesting
to know which section of the earth
would be more populous-whether
everyone would go north for good
wages or go south for cheap work
men. The railroad problem would be
momentous unless the railroads all
ran east and west, when uniform
rate would obtain on any particular
east-and-west line.
Journeys to the south would be even
more popular than they are now, for
they would make everyone feel better
and in buoyant spirits; more springy,
too. so that, people could walk far
ther without getting tired, and could
jump over any obstacle that present
ed itself without coming down with
too hard a thump.
There is no planet now known that
has such rapid rotation as is pic
tured here, but there are several
where man would weigh a great deal
less than on earth. On the moon q
man would weigh only fifty or sixty
pounds and could jump as many feet
without suffering serious discomfort.
But this state of affairs obtains over
the whole planet, because it is due
to absence of gravitative force and
not to centrifugal, as would be the
case on the rapidly rotating earth.
