When he couldn't work at his hay or
grain, because of the damp mornings.
he gave them some attention. And
then evenings between supper and
chores and bedtime he gave them some
work Anyway his yield was six hun
dred bushels, and he sold the whole
lot for S2S5. Ben is satisfied. Still
there were larger yields than this In
the neighborhood.
If one might speak of hogs In the
same breath in which you speak OF po-
tatoes, there Is nothing In the ethics
OF literature that would create de-
barment. Taking advantage of this
license II will not be out of place to
state that large potato yields are not
the only feature of interest In this
new and interesting country. Amongst
others hogs are having q good deal Of
attention. Not long ago, hogs reached
the s23.00 mark on the Calgary market.

Il You Need a Medicine

Have you ever stopped to reason why
II is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised. all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? Tho
reason Is plain--the 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. a
preparation I 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 .

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,
70 many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

STATE MAY HAVE BOTH
DENTIST AND ALIENIST

NASHVILLE, Tenn. March 20. (Spl.)
1t looks as If the state is bound to
have a dentist, judging from the fact
that two bills bearing on the same sub
ject were among the first to be flung
into the mill upon the reconvening of
the general assembly. One bill by DIR.
Griffin, of Lake county, amends the
state board Of health act so as to pro-
vic for an assistant secretary who
shall be a dentist and whose salary
shall be $4,000 per year, while the other
bill provides for the employment of a
state dentist to serve the inmates of
the various state institutions at a sal
airy of $4,000 per year.
incidentally 1t might be mentioned
that DR.. o. A. oliver, recently in charge
Of the war work of the Dental Pre-
~paredness league in Tennessee, is slated
for the job.
Another professional job is open for
an a%lienist, provided the bill introduced
supervision over the various cases in
the three state hospitals for the insane.
His salary is not set forth In the meas
ure, but he will be appointed by the
state manager Of institutions, Lewis
S. Pope.
A measure by Mr.. Whitfield which
passed the first reading, changes the
age Of consent from 16 years to IS years
by seeking to prevent marriage of per-
sons under Is years of age. Another
measure bearing upon the nuptial re-
lationship and of an eugenic nature
is the measure by Mr.. Walker provid-
ing for the requirement of a medical
certificate Of good health and the alb
sence Of Venereal disease before a mar
riage license can be Issued the con-

THE ~IRREPARABLE LOSS

Great, numerous and varied losses were brought about bv
the war, and it will take the world a long time to get over It
and to reimburse itself. 1
There is one loss that is irreparable. That is the loss Of
human life. The dead can never be brought back, unless those
who believe in metempsychosis will have them, again in
English sparrows, grasshoppers or other corporal bodies.
Millions of lives have been wasted, and nothing remains
save the little white cross on some batteswept area of France
And these broad fields of little white crosses, each an alpebraic
plus sign, meaning that one more has been added to the great
majority who have gone before, what a pathetic picture they
presentl Should Christ pass there his heart would again be
wrung. He would feel the cruel nails in his hands and the
spear thrust in his side, and all the agonies of his passion and
crucifxion would be suffered again. He died to teach the doc
,trine of love, that men might live, and here we are practcing
the doctrine of hate and killing each other. Did he die in vain?
: Millions of lives wasted, AS many millions as there were
people on earth at the time of Christ, And these are not all
that have been deprived of life, English statsticians aver the
birth rate of the empire has been reduced 1000 a day during the
last three years of the war, or, as they express it, seven thou
over two and a half millions a year, or nearly 100000 to be
added TO the slain, What a stupendous loss! These souls that
should be developing and ripening are permanently debarred
from entering upon life. Great souls, many of them, potentially,
or possibly, at least. The punishment Of the kaiser will not
compensate this. Not if every molecule in his body were CON
verted into a man and every man made to suffer torture and
death, More than one man must eXpiatc this crime. Whole
nations must suffer, and perhaps humanity at large may be
made to right the wrong,
When the cannons are roaring and the shells are shrieking
is a glorious time for the soul to leave the body and fy away
to join the immortal heroes who have been waiting to welcome
il, but to the bereaved mothers and fathers the little white cross
is a veritabe cross Of Calvary,
