GROWTH ON TREE PUZZLES
To Produce Remarkable Formation,
Alaska Spruce Must Have Rotat-
ed, According to Experts.

A cross section of great old spruce
tree from Alaska tells the story of Il
tree which executed Il spin, like Il bal
let-dancer. This cross-section shows
a most peculiar structure. which has
caused great deal of speculation
among the various foresters through
out the country. and very interesting
explanation is advanced in American
Forestry.
Ii is known that Il tree growing at
slant forms on the lower side of the
trunk a dense reddish wood known as
''rotholz." This spiral in this case is
of such sort, and as it is Il continuous
formation. winding from the center to
within half an inch from the circum-
ference, il is surmised that 1t was
growing in an inclined position on the
edge of glacier. where by some shift
ing ii was caused TO rotate, so that all
sides of the tree were successfully on
the downward side. Thus, as the tree
grew, and its rotation continued slow
~, the "rotholz" developed into y
spiral

CHOICE OF BUT TEN STATES.

New York state had no part in the election Of
the first president of the United States. For some
years following the establishment of the federal
government the legislatures of most of the states
chose the presidential electors the people voting
for them only Indirectly. their choice being ex-
pressed by their votes for legislators. A deadlock
between the senate and the assembly prevented
the selection of electors from New York state.
Rhode Island and North Carolina had not yet
ratified the Constitution. Washington was
elected the first time by the votes of only ten Of
the Is states.
New York city was the scene OF the first inaugu-
ration, however. Washington took the oath on
the portico of Federal hall, on the present site Of
the srbtreasury at Wall and Nassau streets, April
80 1888. Immediately following this ceremony he
retired within the building and delivered an adj.
dress to congress. which met in Federal hall in
those days. John Adams. the second president
also addressed congress in person. but Jefferson
broke the custom which President Wilson has re-
vived. Jefferson stigmatiZed that form of address
as monarchical and put his message In writing
New York Sun.

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 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 Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. a
preparation / 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 DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
80 many people claim, that it fulfills 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
DIR. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles

bequeath ten guineas to buy ring for each"
All of the family pictures. except few spe-
officially mentioned. were left to George Washing
ton Parke GUSTS. and TO him went a large coliec-
tlon of household furnishings, including beds,
water coolers, china and furniture. Special pro-
vision was made for the education of three neph-
ews who were to be fitted in "some useful
trade" and she made further provision that
100 pounds be given to each to set him up in his
trade.
The belated return of these two famous doci-
ments so essentially personal and human In their
contents to the little courthouse where they were
both filed for probate century ago has
made of Fairfax Court House another Mecca for
the history-loving tourist and 1t is rapidly falling
into line after Mount Vernon and Alexandria In
