was heavily loaded and captain and
pilot decided to round-to and tie up
rather than to brave the storm. As we
approached the Kentucky shore the
mate began to issue orders. Two
negroes stood with the headline; two
more were back on the fantail with a
stern line. II
Better get out another line by her
head" called the captain to the mate.
The mate turned to new roustabout
on the head. and said:
"Here, -, get back into the
deckroom and get out that hawser."
The negro passed aft. Both lines
were made fast, and just as the storm
broke the mate roared: "Where
In - Is that hawser?"
Couldn't find no horse, sir" said
the negro, just returned, 'but got
dis year mule as the next thing to It,"
The negro had brought forward the

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
il 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 manufactures. 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 DR.. 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 80 large o
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 tho fact,
20 many people claim, that It fulflls 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 Pd& Address
