Why DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medic
cine.
It is physicians prescription.
Swamp Root is strengthening medic
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blads
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has 80 many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for

Mount Clemens, Mich, May 81. =

the jury in the Henry Ford-C Chicago

thin People
SHOULD take
PHOSPHATE.
Nothing Like Plain BltPo.Phosphate
to Put on Firm, Healthy Fiesh and
20 Increase strength, vigsr
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose of making
thin people fieshy. developing arms. neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines Of health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel their
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than IL contained in modern
foods Physicians claim there il nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists as bitro- phosphate, which Is mex
pensive and is sold by most all druggists
under a guarantee Of satisfaction or money
back BY feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the neces-
sary phosphoric food elements, bitro- phos-
phate quickly produces a welcome trans
formation in the appearance; the increase
in weight frequently being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries with
1t a general improvement In the health:
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack OF
energy, which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness, soon disappear, Dun
eyes become bright, and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION: - Although bitro-phosphate
is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, 1t
should not, owing to its remarkable flesh
growing properties, be used by anyone
who does not desire to put on flesh

GRADE CROSSING
PERIL SHOWN IN
RAILWAY FILM

To combat the seeming wave of
.carelessness sweeping over the coun-
try, the Seaboard Airline railroad is
conducting an educational campaign
through moving pictures, and ]. A.,
Jester, of Tampa, connected with, the
claim department of the road, is in
Americas where he arranged today
for the showing of the comanys film,
THE House That Jack Built" at the
Strand Theater Thursday as a part
of the houses regular program all af-
ternoon and evening. Mr.. Jester
will be present at the showing and
make short talk on safety to explain
the purpose of the picture.
While produced for propaganda purS
poses, the picture is declared to be
somewhat of thriller, with plenty
of heart throbs. It deals with life as
actually seen, and has a big wreck
scene in it in which freight engine
hits the rear of a passenger trains
smashing it to splinters.
The grade crossing peril is also
stressed in the picture, which con-
tains complete story.
"It is astounding said Mr.. Jester,
that grade crossing accidents to au-
tomobiles have increased $50 per
cent. in the last ninety days in this
contry. 1t is unexplainable but true.
1t is to teach people to think before
crossing the railroad that we are con-

Bee-Keepers Should
Gather Honey Now

Now is the time to take the honey
from the beehives; do not wait until
July or August for then will be too
late, according to E. c. Davis, spec
ialist in bee culture, Extension Di-
vision, Louisiana State University.
MANY beekeepers lose money by
not taking the honey from the hives
at the proper time" says Mr.. Davis.
1T has long since been learned that
bees can gather several hundred
pounds of honey some seasons and
fill the hives four or five times with
very little effort Beekeepers should
go through their hives now, take the
surplus honey from them and thus
make room for more. In most cases
the supers will be found clogged to
their capacity. A little later the
hives should be examined again and
the operation repeated.
Help the bees to make money for
you. Don't let them crowl outside
the hive, as they are now doing, be-
cause there is no room inside for
them. By removing the honey they
will be kept busy and contented. This
will also prevent swarming and the
bees will produce much more honey
than they ever have before.
