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-
tensively 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 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 tor
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
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 a
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 fulills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects 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.

bugs.
''Ive been on my back a long time"
said the first bug.
you've been on your back no long
er a time than I have been," said the
second bug.
But just then little boy walked
along, little boy they had never seen
before, though, for that matter, all
little boys looked about the same to
the bugs. And the little boy noticed
them.
"You poor bugs" he said, "you are
both on your backs and you want to
get over so you can crawl"
And the little boy turned them over
so they crawled away happily.
II don't know when I found any
thing so hard to do as to turn over"
said the first bug.
"You didn't do it," said the second
bug.
"Oh, we'll, neither did you," answered
the first bug. "We both had to be
turned over this time and helped. But
no matter, we are no longer on ouI
backs"

Nevertheless, there are parts of our
tariff system which need prompt at
tention. The experiences Of the war
have made it plain that in some cases
too great reliance on foreign supply is
dangerous, and that in determining
certain parts of our tariff policy do
mestic considerations must be borne
in mind which are political as we'll as
economic. Among the industries to
which special consideration should be
given is that Of the manufacture of
dyestuffs and related chemicals. Our
complete dependence upon German
supplies before the war made the in
terruption Of trade cause of excep-
tional economic disturbance. The
close relation between the manufac-
turer of dyestuffs, on the one hand,

"You copy everything I say" said

we can crawl. Well probably be able
to work ourselves over after while,
but it does seem hard for us to do"
"Here come some creatures taking
walk, perhaps they will do some
thing for u.s." said the second bug.
Perhaps" said the first bug. "But
i am not sure"
'I'm not sure myself" said the Sec
ond bug. II only said that they might
do something for u.s."
And just then some ducks which
belonged to little boy at a neighbor'
Ing farmhouse came waddling by, and
a little puppy was trotting along by
their side. They didn't pay any at
tention to the bugs, and the bugs were
just as glad.
II didn't notice them when I spoke
first,'' said the second bug. II saw
some people, I thought"
"The people turned down another
way" said the first bug. "These hor
rible animals are coming our way"
81 do hope they don't see u.s." said
the second bug.
II hope so, too," said the first bug.
"They might want to eat u.s."
'They might care to snap us up and
swallow us, it is true" said the Sec
Ond bug. "One cannot be too sure
'One cannot be too sure, especially
if one is bug" said the first bug.
Creatures treat bugs queerly. We're
never loved so very much," said the
second bug.
Except as food for creatures, like
frogs, and Others" said the first bug.
"You have horrible thoughts and
your speech and the words you say
are still worse" said the second bug.
But the ducks waddled by and so did
the puppy trotting along with them,
for they were going to have adven-
lures Of their own. They were walk
ing along, with their heads moving
from side to side and their bodies
moving still more, paying attention to
no one.
"Quack, quack," they said as they
talked to each other, and the dog
barked a little every few minutes and
wagged his tail.

ward the school where the little boy
went. They walked right into the class
room and had fine time amusing all
the children while the teacher told
the little boy to take them home. She
had to laugh herself when she saw all
the ducks waddling in just as though
they had been expected.
And the two bugs, still lying on their
backs on the roadside saw the little
boy coming back with his ducks and

NOW IS THE TIME TO SAVE.

"Save now for in a few years a dol
lar will probably be worth as much
as a dollar and a half are now" and
"hence every dollar now saved is bound
to be worth more than a dollar of to-
day." is the striking point in a COM
munication from U. S. Senator Henry
L. Myers, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on public lands, and who
strongly indorses the present inten-
sified one big day sale on October
9th of the new 500 and $1,000 treas
ury certificates. Senator Myers COM
munication in full follows:
"Your favor, outlining your plans
for a campaign of thrift in Montana
and throughout the entire ninth fed
eral reserve district, through the sale
of the recently authorized n hum
dred dollar and one thousand dollar
certificates, is at hand and noted with
very much interest.
81 cordially indorse the thrift cam
paign upon which you are entering
and wish it every success. The peo-
pie of this country are confronted by
many grave problems, n of the gray
est of which is the high cost of liv-
ing. A great war inevitably results
in expanded currency, high cost OF
living and fast living, fictitious prl-
ces. e%xtravagant habits and a spirit
of speculation and venture. Wage
earners draw high wages and many
other people make unusual profits
Money comes in greater quantities
or more easily than had been the Gus
tom and people find lots of things fol
which to spend money. The demand
upon their income is greatly increas
ed. Money ome and goes easily.
at generally takes several year
to overcome these conditions. The.
can only be overcome gradually. TIL
strong tendency such times is to be
come ~extravagant. Extravaganza j
one of the evils of the times in whic]
we are living.
at is very important right nov
that the people of this country cult
vate thrift and economy. By so dc
ing they not only reduce expense
and save for the future but acquire
very valuable habit. Prices will nc
always be so high. Our currency wi
not always be inflated. In a few year
a dollar will buy much more than nov
In a few years a dollar will probabl
be worth as much a a dollar and
half now are worth. Hence, every do
lar now saved in a few years is boun
to be worth more than the dollar {
today.
81 know of no better way of sa'
ing money and acquiring habits
thrift and economy than by investin
in treasury certificates. l hope ever,
body in the northwest who is able
do so may invest in such certificate
It would be a great thing for our Sc
ton if they would do so and l ur|
