TIRE TAPE VERY USEFUL

Tire tape is to the AUTOMOBILE

Cross nurse, and a man who
drives a car would as soon think
of leaveing it out of his tool box
as Red Cross nurse would think
of leaving a bandage out of her

was submitted by Asa Powell. an
eighth grade pupil in the. Emerson

MAY GIVE MARKINGS

cut 'em out while the cuttings good,
for the thrift teacher will get you II
you don't watch out.
Extravagant dress and habits Of pu-
pills have prompted the government to
seek the assistance Of educators in
sowing seeds of savings in the minds
Of the pupils.
Or George N. Bauer. OF the Univer.
sity OF Minnesota and vice director Of
the Ninth Federal Reserve district
War Savings organization, tells Of the
new move:
1T ID seriously suggested that the
school children be given markings on
q prepared course OF practical thrift
the same as they are given markings
in geography or astronomy. The
school children Of Minnesota and the
Ninth district have shown a cordial
and an intelligent interest In the pres.
ent thrift movement. We feel that
worthwhile results will be gained by
emphasizing with them the real ne
cessity Of personal responsibility"

old PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that 40 many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
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 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 that l know of
has so large sale"
According toN sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers' Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that so many people claim, it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root- by Parcel Post Address
