OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that SO many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out Of sight and are soon for
gotten? 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. !
4 prominent druggist says Take
for example DR.. kiimer's Swamp
Root, a preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend, for in almost every case
it shows excellent results. as many
Of my customers testify. No other
kidney remedy that l know OF has 50
large SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of thousands who
have used the preparation, the sue
cess of Dr.. kilmer's Swamp-Root is
due to the fact that, so many people
claim. it fulfils almost every wish in
overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
ailments. correct urinary troubles
and neutralizes the uric acid which
causes rheumatism.

kent's Hill. Nov. 21-Added to its
many other achievements in connec-
ton with the World War, Kents Hill
seminary has the honor Of going way
over the top in the United War Fund
Drive, totaling nearly $500 in pledges
as against'a quota Of $3.50. an over
subscription Of AZ pcr cent. In addi-
ton to this the school is practically
100 per cent in the number OF sub
scribers, small fraction only not yet
having been reached because Of ab-
sence from the campus. These will be
reached today and as Principal New :
ton stated in chapel today, the school
will have again answered a national

alumni may well be proud
The good work was accomplished
by appointing five teams. one for the
faculty conducted by Principal New
ton himself, one for each of the four
literary societies conducted BY the
several presidents. A speaker came
last Friday from Watervile to pre-
sent the work and the school was
privileged to listen to an earnest and
interesting discourse by the Rev
Frank Robinson Of nat city. one Of
the determining factors in bringing 10
pass such hearty support on the part
Of boys and girls who are under
heaNy expenses for their own educn-
non was the appeal to furnish edu
cational facilities for the boys in thu
service. The remark by Prof. Newton
that the seminary has 165 BOYS IN
the service to whom some part Of this
fund would administer NAV have
also been determining factor.
THIS support proves that higher edu-
cation does open the hearts and
minds Of the hoys and girls to real
ization Of their responsibility to
others. Fully one-half the quota Of
