THE EA1aLY MORNING

There was nothing to disturb the
pleasure of SHAT ride in the early
morning. The suit cases occupied the
places usually held by two passengers
and the seven passenger car carried
only four including the chauffeur and
his assistant. Arriving in Petersburg
the night Waterman at the garage on
Halifax Street supplied us with water
and commented upon the steam car.

WHITE MEN INTERESTED.

White men gathered around the
strange car. 1t was to them a curiosi
ty as amusing and as interesting as
Barnum's "What is it." At last We
were ready and VIC resumed our
journey to South Hill. We had OK :
pected to reach Danyille u.at morning
but delay followed delay from one
cause to another. The rubber hose
connection with which Robinson sy-,
phoned water in tie steam cars tank
was interesting to everyone.

We left for South Hill, passing the
Central Hospital, Dinwiddie and
other places. The streaks of a gray
dawn was seen on the horizon. Soon
thereafter upon stopping at conven

covered that the left rear tire was
not fully inflated. A nail had pene'
trated the casing and with this came
slow leak. 1t took but a short while
to transfer the spare wheel on the
rear to the place and we went on.

A LOUD EXPLOSION.

We were going at a lively pace
when there was a EXPLOSION. 1t was a
blow out Of the rear right tire. This
meant delay and much work for we

the inner tube was inserted in the
wheel on the rear. It was about an
hour before we were ready to travel
again. Cogbill picked black berries
and I did the same thing while the

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that so many products that are ex-
t~ensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
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 'sTake 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 has so large q
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
SO many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; c~orrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels 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.
