Why varnIsh Tree & DREADED.

Varnish is produced in China from
tree commonly spoken of as the var
nish tree, but known botanicalIy as
Rhus vernicifera, which is found in
abundance in the mountains OF
Hupeh, Kweichew and Szechwan.
The varnish is taken from the tree
after it is about six inches In diane
ter by tapping at intervals of from
five to seven years, until the tree is
fifty or sixty years of age. A good
sized tree win yield from five to seven
pounds of varnish.
The natural color of the crude var
nish as applied is black. 1t is consid-
cred the most indestruetible varnish
known. One popularity is that 1t
hardens only in a moist atmosphere.
In China 1t is enormously known
among the foreign communities as
"Ningpo Farnish," probably because
it first came into contact with foreign
trade here.
Many persons are poisoned when
they come into even atmospheric con-
tart with this varnish which fact, I'M
fortunately, reduces its trade posi-
bilities enormously. AS yet no method
has been discovered whereby this
poisonous quality can be counteracted,

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 PLAINTIFF 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 DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, 8

suits, as many of my customers testify.

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 the fact,
50 many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; correets uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
