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-
tensvely advertised all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotteng 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 for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
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 DIT.
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulhlls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects url-
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. T.,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores.-Adv.

LOOK BEYOND THE LABEL

The pantry list contains quite as
many items that are valuable to the
cook according to their good spelling
qualities as 1t does of articles that are
valuable because Of their good keeping
qualities. So it often happens that
such claims as ''keeps always" "won't
SPOIL" etc., as read every day In adj
vertisements would mean, IL true. that
no service could be expected of these
products.
For example, take matches-the
match that won't spoil Is not match
but stick. Its only use is its SPOIL
ing. Another item that gives still a
better example is that Of baking pow
der which years ago was considered
by many as food but In reality Is
not a food but merely a preparer Of
food; still, through misleading adver.
tisements many people have been led
to believe that they eat baking pow
der, but this Is not the case. Like the
match, baking powder must spoil" In
order to serve.
So, keeping qualities may be impor-
tant only as they insure spelling quail
tiles, which merely means that such
items must be manufactured so that
the spelling will not take place pre-
maturely and fail when used.
Thus, it is that small box Of
matches may be cheap at 5 cents COM
pared with box double the size at
6 cents, or quarter Of a pound can
of baking powder Of the type that
only requires one level teaspoonful to
the cup Of flour (such as caIumet)
will go further than a 12-Ounce tin
Of low-grade goods, sold for the same
money. The size Of the package or
the attractiveness Of the label mean
nothing. Values must be measured BY
the service they give. It's the only
safe way today.-Adv.

ny MARGERY REX.

One Of the institutions to be found
in the family of twenty years ago
has disappeared with the entrance OF
almost every single woman without
great means into the Industrial
world. That was the "old maid"
who was a member of so many
homes.
Auntie sat up with the children
when they had measles, stood up for
them when they were scolded for
teasing a neighbor's cat. listened to
the doings of the girls and their
beaux, gave advice, and seldom con-
demned anyone. In most cases she
was loveable character who gave
more than she received. There are
not many of her today.
And yet there are people who say
that II women were to do jury duty
that only the married ones should
be called. since no single woman
could possess an understanding of
domestic problems, especially where
the welfare of children was involved.
This question of serving on a
jury is not one of marriage or no
marriage, but a question of whether
you have the intelligence to serve.
The present qualifications for jury
the marital state" said Miss Helen
Priscilla Mccormick, assistant dis.
trict attorney of Kings county, today.
you see. I'm afraid I am an aw-
fully common sense sort OF e person,
and this question seems very foolish
| to me.
Much Alike After All.
Every woman. whether married
or not, has innate mother lover.
Formerly there was the problem Of
the spinster sister in the home.
Everyone knows that there was no
kinder or more motherly person
than she was. That was before the
day Of woman in industry.
TN this question. as in every
question where the sexes are dis
cussed, II seems to me not a case OF
q woman. OF man being the superior
OF the other. 1t is simply a ques-
tion Of the individual, irrespective OF
sex. Ability to discharge duties is
the main thing"
"will women bs hearder to woman
than men would" was one Ques-
tion put to Miss Mccormick.
Women will be just to women.

I They will be less emotional in deal
ing with woman than man are. In
I this connection, the case of Mrs
Emily Saruch, California woman,
who was the foreman of Jury that
returned verdict OF murder. in the
first degree in the case Of an eight
een-year-old boy, is interesting.
Tho jury was a mixed one, and
such Jurors would seem to be the
most logical solution Of the ques-
tlon. In the home the child faces
the mixed juryt-he father. and
mother and Sisters and brothers.
In that way az balance is main
tained.
Agnes Repplier. a brilliant es-
sayist, said all this so well, It seems
| to me. She said that the number
OF wives who murder husbands, and
of girls who murder lovers consti-
tutes menace to society, and that
the tolerance for these crimes and
the prompt acquittals that often fol-
low sensational trials are dangerous
to law and justice.
Woman's Intuition.
This idea of women on juries Is
one that always makes a great ap-
peal to women, for there is an oppor-
tunity for women's intuition to guido
her, and intuition being an animai
instinct is nearly always correct.
You may say that this sort Of a
man or that sort of a woman is cold
and hard In judgment. 1 say to you
that 1t 10 a case of type Of person
and not a whole sex being that way.
| Certain psychological conditions ex,
ist in woman that do not in man, but
they are not so marked that in rela-
tion to these particular duties they
make any difference.
1T will be a great loss II the bus
ness women do not respond to the
idea OF jury service as quickly as tie
women in the homes. These women
who have worked can bring all the
experience they have acquired in the
outside world
THE bill providing for women TO
do jury duty, as we have prepared 81,
Is elective, not mandatory. That IS
woman, IL the biz Is passed, MAJ
or may not serve as a juror. It Is to
be a privilege. The bill was made
that way to prevent opposition from
the women in the rural districts, for
whom It might be a great inconvsni-
ence to go long distance to serve
Oh jury.
"In Kansas, California, Nevada and
Washington only the married women
may be exempt.
only One Objection.
There is only one objection that
could be raised, and that can be
answered. The objection Is that a
jury cannot be separated. In one
case out West a Judge decided that
even II the only woman Juror
wanted to wait In another room ad-
Joining the main jury room that 1t
was legal. for the reason that the
only reason jury must not be sep
arated Is the chance OF outside in
iuence being brought to bear. and
there would de no possibility Of
that in this case.
Bpt this idea OF calling sex into
the qualifications Is faliacy. 1T
all depends upon the individual, 1t
Is the actual type of man and woman
that will make the decision and the
geX Of the Juror"
